.......Ok im a sidehop lover and i changed my tech a few times......all you have to do is relax the whole body and put your mind to the sidehop...... get on back wheel verry little hoping then a pause...then just creep slightly forward.......this puts your body in the best preload position to then throw ur ass down to the rear wheel..........then shoot up like a spring.......... i go to front slightly as its safer.........going to two is a lot more effort....... its all in the preload ask clownbike
