The Sidehop Thread

Why does my leg end up like this? In other peoples pics it seems that their knees come up to their arm pits :S I feel I could get higher with the correct technique :(

that techniques probably better in some ways id say. keeps your weight over the front so its easier to hold your backwheel up even if its right on the edge of the tyre or something.

if you wanna tuck the oter way though, try straightening your arms out in the air, will force you to shift your ass back..

anyone noticed any difference in sidehopping a mod?

yeah people ask you why your bmx doesn't have a seat. in theory it's easier 'cause the wheels are smaller you don't have to pull them up as much? or sumat? eaither way aren't the uber big sidehops (cls/ot pi/the koxx rider with an afro) being beasted on mods?

stocks bar height is like 90000000 inch so everything seems piss, but on a mod bar heights are like 38-40, and when u get to 45 inch sidehops there like higher than your face, abit over the top, but aye, its easyer but harder in some ways.
