powerz Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 (edited) I'm no good at describing how to do things so i won't even try, But my advice is to practice as much as possble and you will soon be able to do them, maybe try to do them on a curb for a start Check out http://www.trashzen.com/ for tips Edited January 13, 2007 by powerz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackamory Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 Hi, the best places to try them out is on curbs or pipes on the floor or something low so that if you fall off you cant damage anything. To practice try just doing front hops on level ground then front hop and while your back end it still in the air try leaning back and hop on your back wheel.Then when your 'OK' at doing them try just doing front hops on level ground then front hop and while your back end it still in the air try leaning back and hop on your back wheel but tryand push your back end down and forward and pull your front end forward and up like a see-saw action, resulting in a wheel swap. Hope I've helped, jack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onzat-comp Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 to do a wheel swap go into a stoppie when you are quite high release your front brake as soon as your back wheel hits the floor and your front end starts to rise lock on your back break quite simple once uve got the basics thanks rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambton Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 learn to wheel swap......just do an endo and find your balance point. When you start coming down away from your balance point, release your front brake and let the bike roll through your legs and pull the bars upwards (if you dont let the bike roll through your legs, your back wheel will miss the obstacle). Try to keep your body over where you want your back wheel to land and push you bck wheel to that spot. As usual this technique will differ with obstacles of different heights and types. Hope this helps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
