There is only one thing for it if you want to get better; you have have to go out alot and ride.The same principles apply with anything you want to get good at it just takes alot of practice as you start to improve the rest such as your balance and technique should follow. If you are finding it hard to learn certian techniques and find the internet is of no use you could always try riding with other people which will give you the insperation to improve and they may be able to give you better tips on how to do stuff. Also you shoudl start leanring with what ever feels most comfortable for you we all have our own ways of doing things.

My mate alan won this bid for a trials park to be built in rainham,he was even put into the newspapper and the council gave it the go ahead but still they have done nothing and it been months since then.

I must say by looking at the picture that a half decent grind for your frist attempt. The best way to put a grind on your rim: Step1: Make sure your using an appropriate grinding disc. Step2: Put the wheel in a vice and spin. Step3: Apply the grinder to the rim at 45-90 degrees angle whilst moving the grinder back and forth, once you done this simply flip it over and repeat the same for the other side. Darren

Belive me this footage is well worth watching is you got a sence of humour for random stuff. Made me laught i enjoyed it.

Thanks again for that willsey at least everything is all clear now. From the pictures ive seen so far and the responses ive got im most impressed. Keep up the good posting and if you have anythign to say or pictures please share them with me.

It was a good introduction dispite the fact that there was no need. By the way i made need some help sometime with the photoshopping as i dont know what im doing, so if i do ill ask you. Im also fifthteen too but unlike you ive not been riding long. I also made the same mistake and went streight into posting before realising whats what. Overal it was'nt a bad introduction. DARREN

stock onza forks many not come with disk mounds but mine did when i got my bike so im not to sure i think. Thank you for replying your story was quite interesting. like i said above ricky all pictures and videos are more than welcome, so if you happen to have any please show me i have nothing better to do.

thank you for informing me willsey but there was no need for you to do a introduction ethier.

Hello ive only been riding for about three weeks now and im adicted to trails. im just wondering how long everyone has been riding for. Also im intrested in hearing how high people can side hop in inches, flat to flat gap in ft and drop off basicly anything else that you feel is relevent that i missed. Pictures of your bike are welcome and video clips of your self. I dont have any pictures or video footage of myself as of yet. All replies are welcome thank you. DARREN

Hello Daniel and welcome to the forum. like the nickname made me laugth when i read it. A few things to rember: Follow the guidelines. Use the seach topic tool to make sure topic has'nt already been made, hence your question may already have been answered. Only relpy if you think you have something worthwhile saying. Last but not least use proper english and not to many animantions people dont like it, it's hard to understand. Overall enjoy youre stay and welcome.

There is still much for me to do and learn as i have been riding for only three weeks now. I already droped off of ten bricks. Were as my flat to flat gap is now coming on to about only 3ft not much. It was infact to day that i managed my first up gap equivalent to two crates.(expect for curbs) I still got to learn how to side hop yet along with front to back wheel swaping. In comparison i dont sound that good to you but im practicing and can do most of basics now. By the way how long have you been riding now. DARREN

That has got to be the most silly off topic thing ive ever heard dont post rubbish like that its not funny it not clever and its certainly not smart. I lied it was quite the joke dispite beign off topic.

Thanks for relpying to my topic chris. If you find that there is no one who rides trails near you there are some solutions. Firstly: Use the forum to find out if there is any who lives in you area and arrange to meet. Secoundly: Jumping on the train and going else were. Hope my tips help. DARREN

Sam why are you being silly you got a very good bike. You have a perfectly good bike which you never ride anyway. Word of advice you should put you old frame on till you get better then switch back to you aorta. By doing this dont have to worry about ruining you nice new bike. Also you cnat get better at trails if you never come out with us lot. Hense to get good you need to practice so.

Welcome to the forum Gary. Hello my names Darren i only recently joined the forum myself. And from the experiences ive had so far its been a great one. It wont take you long before you start getting involed in mass discussions . The haste between certain topics wont take you long to get used to. This haste usually Ligers around the sort of whats better mod (20") or stock (26") topics. Remeber stick to the guidelines and your stay here will be a pleasent one im sure. Also when making a new topic use the search tool to make sure this topic has not yet been done. Overal enjoy your stay here.

Sounds pritty good at the fact that there is no chav's where you live. One things for certain your bike wont get damaged or Stolen in anyway. Cant say that ive done much down hill biking my self though,is it any good! I find its not very good where i ride ethier. so me and my mates tend to jump on the train and go else were.

I wouldnt say my topic is that hot but thanks anyway.

Pictures look very good. By the way what bike are you riding. Keep up the good work and send in more pictures next tiem you get some.

Nice one Thanks for replying.

Sorry i dont really know how else to explain it unless you say what exactly it is your unsure about. Also i dont have any video clips to show you how it's done. But im sure if your still unclear or a certain part of it you could ask someone else to Clarify things. Darren
