rudirudirudirudirudi Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 hi. i have been riding trials for about 2-3 months and im just curious as to where im at.

ruption0 Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 decent amount of pedal hops and having a decent amount of balance on the back wheel, and trying to learn back wheel side hops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny@phatworks Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 Wow, going back a good 5 or 6 years........ I could do monster wheelies - oh the days of having a high frame bike and a saddle, backhop about 6 or 7 times backwards (couldn't pedal kick to hop forwards) and just basic stuff like wheelies off 1 or 2 foot walls and stuffHappy Days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krisboats Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 I could pedal hop quite confidently (as in do around 10-20 clumsy ones at a time), could hop onto curbs and other objects smaller than a foot high and i could gap about 3-4 foot (about a pallet length).

Greetings Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 Pivot, hop on the rear wheel and do pretty much anything that didn't require releasing the rear brake.The 1st time i met another trials rider was a few months later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudirudirudirudirudi Posted April 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 thanks for all the comments guys. well the reason i asked this is because a friend of mine (squit man) who has been doing trials for a long time was saying that i was progressing really fast. i wasnt so sure so i thought id find out from you guys. i now feel kinda guilty as i think i am progressing quickly listening to what you guys had to say. well basicly i can sidehop benches about 2-3 foot high. pedal up ( surge) about 4 pallets drop off picnic tables and stuff gap 5 foot sorry if any of this sounded big headed or anything.

mat hudson Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 um a suprising ammount, gap, backhop, wheelswap a bit bunnyhop well enough. i think this was because i always played on marks trials bike before i got one, i'd also been riding dj for a few months beforehand.
