Its better to wear a helmet and not need it, than need a helmet and not wear it!! That's my motto! ALWAYS WEAR HELMETS!!!!

To start off with, I focused on my balance (learning to track stand), then I began learning to hop on my back wheel. Then I focused on bike control (placing your bike accurately) then from there I picked up everything else pretty quickly and was able to gap, tap, side hop and my bike control was improving. I learnt these skills on very small objects and over a couple of years I have practised and now can use the skills to get onto bigger objects. Hope this will help you start off! Stephen G

Nice vid. I liked your riding and i enjoyed it. I also like you bike. Stephen G

You said you were getting back into trials after a 20 year gap. How old are you? Stephen G

Nice thats about the highest ive dropped. The highest ive dropped is about 6ft. It was really sketchy because i dropped it with a dodgey brake and almost lost it. Stephen G

I started on a t-pro which is a brilliant bike to start off with. I would deffinatly recomend it. Stephen G

It will be much cheaper to put a front freewheel on it.

I think you should wear some skate shoes because they have a flat bottom to them and improves grip. I fell off quite badly a few weeks ago because my skate shoes were wet so i decided to wear my school P.E shoes so I could ride. it was a bad idea. I hurt my ribs so I couldn't ride for about 5 days. So I think you should wear skate shoes.

i would say that mod would be easier to learn on because they are lighter and easier to move around and spin. i ride a mod bike and i am learning on it fine. i hope this advice will help you make a desicion.

Hello, im stephen and i ride a onza t-pro which is alright condition and i have been riding trials for about 2 years now and i would say im ok but i could be better. look forward to becoming to know a few of you out there. Thanks Stephen G.
