flas12345 Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 (edited) you are kind of doing the right thing, try to just put one kick in and then pull your brake, but it does take practice mate. you will get there eventually dont worry.EDIT: ooooops didn't see the video. you are doing the right thing mate but like i said it just takes practice.cheers lou.

trialsrider101 Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 you could try holding your brakes with one finger its easier to hold a brake with one rather than twotom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fbmbmx Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 I had this problem when i first started i overcome it by doing more of a wheelie to stoping so i can get my balance point right and holding my break with one finger.Hope this helped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
