SkiLLz Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 I know I've asked this before a long time ago but I still haven't managed to push myself that extra bit higher! I can back wheel I think 9 bricks when I'm in the mood but I can't get any higher and I hate to bunny hop on a mod. Please share techniques, I can't be the only person with this problem. I hope.

andyb Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 I had a bit of a problem like this for a bit. On a mod, you have to really sink into the bike then launch yourself upwards, similar to bunny hop technique but still pedalling.Its hard to explain really.

Aaron.Tottman Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 (edited) i'll try my best?!?!?1bad peddle facing up...2start peddling ina low wheelie, kinnda crouched, with your arse just over the back wheel...3as you peddle keep your arse kinda close the frame (not too close cos you won't be able to get the bounce you need, knees at bout 45 degrees)....4as you good foot comes into the same pointy up possition, stamp on your good peddle and jumpup...5your hips are at the bars and your sholders well over the bars...6bend you knees as much as you can and bring the bars up and forward.the feeling to get any hight feels like your nearly flipping the bike....so do so a couple of times. pull a high wheelie, stand tall, cover the back brake and see how far back you can go before the bike flips.the possition you are before the bike flips is when you need to do no6.try it on small stuff and just chuck youself as high as you can.you can't get better practice then just strait bunny hopping over stuff. hope it helps/my bad if it don't!EDIT:one thing i will add 4-6 needs to done quite quickly/aggresively!!!!

walker Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 this might help, watch the timing of the pedal stroke and lift of the front wheel then the rear wheel: Trials-Forum Video -> Full View • Download • Upload Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
