I thought the technique looked pretty good but I suppose you're the best judge of that. I liked the look of that spot as well
thanks!
that spot is a trials school I started last year
got some new kids into the sport
-

Onza were bought by Moore Large, a cycling distribution company here in the UK. Best bet is to contact them http://www.moorelarge.co.uk/. Joe the Onza brand manager at Moore Large is a lovely chap and the son of the brands original owner; sure he'll sort you out
thanks! sent them an email
is Joe also on this forum?
-
It's not possible to order direct from Onza unfortunately.
even if its through the biggest bike shop in the country?
-
We have started a trials school here and now theres a big demand for kids bikes
onza is a good choice but I cant find their homepage anymore to order straight from them
anyone know whats up with onza? -
How on earth do you go from sketchy backhops/pedalkicks to the smoothest sidehops I've ever seen?!
I tend to be too stiff on the bike....I need to relax more, then I wouldnt get tired in a section too
-
yeah it seems like i need to learn to relax on the bike
thanks for the comments!

some phone clips from one training session- 2
-
Nice clips!
I think I saw you at Finnish Championships last year.
Its possible, I was in Parainen
-
Just some leftover clips from 2013 that I have no use anymorefilmed near my home plus some clips from France and Poland
-
a bit better pictures
-
Nice bike, the yellow don't do it for me though.
Did you only change the wheels, not even the tyres? How does it make it "winter mode"?
yeah just the wheels, other set of wheels is waiting for spring
these tyres dont have much tread left but they will last through the winter (i have another pair of tyres with a bit more tread if they dont last through the winter)
this year my winter mode means riding indoors and no comps so the bike can be a bit heavier
edit: I also grinded the rims, ill make a better picture soon
-
before:
and after:
I had some echo rims lying around and theres no comps in the winter so I thought I might as well use them riding indoor
rims, spokes and front hub are heavier now
-
no music this time, didnt find anything that would fit well enough
next vid will probably be of Giaco or Carthy
- 2
-
as promised heres the vid, it took a bit longer than expected though
this one is 1/4 and 1/2 finals
ill make another one of the finals and superfinals very soonalso Ill make compilation videos of some riders from this years comps
-
I personally run high pressures, everyone who tries my bike says that my tyres feel too hard
im around 92kg at the moment and run 1.8-1.9 bar pressurewhen I was a bit heavier I often had pressures up to 2.2 bar
-
yeah its probably not worth trying it, ill get the tryall again for rear wheel
but im probably going to get the race king 2.0 for the front, its around 70g lighter than the try all as well -
what pressure did you guys run and what was your bodyweight?
-
I had the RQ 2.4 on rear wheel in 2009 when it was around 800g
I got flats every ride....I changed to tryall light tyres since and have been happy with those
now Im able to get conti tyres really cheap and was thinking about giving it another go as the 2.4 RQ is now 150g heavier at around 950g
what I want to know is:
1. does the new version still get pinch flats often? (compared to try all light for example)
2. how stable is it on natural terrain? (slanted logs and sharp rocks) (my weight is around 94kg / 14.5 stone)
before you say get der kaiser, its too heavy and im not able to get this one either

a few clips from 2nd indoor ride this year
gotta spend the whole winter in this small room, but hey its better than riding in the snow
-
current form is not very good so we decided to ride some simple stuff with my mate and ended up testing our current max gap distance
ended on 290cm (about 9 and a half feet)
next one I tried was 300cm but didnt make it at the moment (form is not that good, not much riding lately)
street training, some big moves
