poopipe Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 er. You may be starting the big pedal kick too far away from the thing youre pedalling up. You may not be kicking hard enough - I find it a bit scary giving it some real pasty sometimes but it's usually pretty safe. Give it an extra crank with your wrong foot before doing the big pedalkick - it stabilises you and pretty much guarantees your freewheel will engage at the right moment. search the forum, theres a few good posts explaining how to get more height look at trashzen - the slowmo gifs are great - you want to be concentrating on what people are doing with their pedals and body position. go ride with some people & get them to explain how to get up stuff. you learn more like that then you ever will by reading about it & practicing on your own. practice a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just enjoy your riding, The rest will come naturally (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
