Herbertlemon102 Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 It's me again- lacking In brakes. Limey 320, high stem, Tt highrise rolled back- perfect. I wanted to have some fun, and the idea of everything being on edge is an idea I like, if that makes sense. I discovered something though, if I bump my front wheel off something them go into rear wheel hops (so using the object I bump into to stop the bike, then immediately put pressure on the pedals) I can rear wheel hop as much as I like. When doing it from a trackstand- I sort of keep on going forwards until I loop out, because putting pressure on the pedals to lift the front up to the means I gain forwards momentum. What's the best way to get to go about brakeless rear wheel hops from a trackstand? If I have an object to stop against, fine, I can do as many as I like. But from trackstand I have issues. Any advice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Watching flipp and when my mate went through his brakeless times, it's not a case of kicking on the backwheel like you would with brakes, but actually just leaning back and pulling the front end back, as of you're gunna do a backwards manual. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I shall give it a go- (on a smaller note, how do I change my member title? I'm more if a chimp IMO) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clerictgm mk2 Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 What DrStix said and MORE FUKKEN PRACTICE! MORE MORE MOAR! At start I though brakeless rear hops are IMBASSIBLE. But 3 weeks after I've done brakeless 60cm sidehop (I learned it being brakeless). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakub1699 Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Brakeless is the way forward, you can learn to do stuff like sidehops without depending on your brakes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manuel Posted September 24, 2014 Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 Or go for the baller 270 hop into hops. Seriously though, rotation works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time I see a post from you it just makes me sad about how long it's been since you last put out a video :'( 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
