omgnoseat Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 i used to have the same thing, put a stronger pedal kick when you jump up, prevent you from going backwards and gets you higher aswellnow i have a question aswell, i'm having problems with sidehopping from a hpping on rear position, i find it hard to get ''the feeling'' to drop into the preloadi also end up hopping too close towards the wall, almost with my pedal against the wallanyone has any tips on this?
