BenLeacock™ Posted October 4, 2007 Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 visit : www.trashzen.co.uk ! great site for learning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neomember Posted October 4, 2007 Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 (edited) Yes, there's plenty of videos, websites that you can learn from. Watch for YouTube and Trashzen.It will be better than trying to explain it using words.It's basically a static bunnyhop using the drivetrain... on the side.Try learning them upright at first. Do some static bunnyhops without using the brakes so the drivetrain(and the rear wheel) can spin freely. If you use the brakes, you'll go backward. Watch for your back, helmet is adviced.When you get the hang of it, add a little punch to the drivetrain(re-use brakes before/after). Then learn them on the side.Hope it helps!!

Oli Smith Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 On youtube watch the tutorials on ryan leech, , and just keep practicing. The best way is practise on pallets! Cause if you muck up you dont wreck you're frame and stuff.Oli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Garland Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 All I shall say is call it a sidehop, I doubt many people know what a cherryhop is, and it also sounds stupid, will save people thinking your retarded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gathsano Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 I don't know about cherry hopping but a cherry picker is an old bmx trick. Hopping on your back tire with one leg over the head tube. Bob Haro style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
