cabby Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 I'm getting a tad bored practising on my own, so, any ideas as to what would make it slightly more appealing ? Bear in mind I've not long took up the sport so don't really want to be trying anything stupid on my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scraggydog64 Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 I would rather ride a trial than practice. You never tend to push yourself when practicing however if you make some flags you can make your practice sections gradually harder and hopefully get some benefit.

elmetal Posted August 13, 2010 Report Share Posted August 13, 2010 Whenever I get bored I look to something simple but impossible and keep at it until I make progress. Have an off camber turn is slippery snot that's impossible? Figure it out. Always do one climb/hop in second? Try it slow in first. If this doesn't get me going I'll go back to the RP vid, look at some tricks I've seen but not mastered, pick an easier one and work on that (front end hop, long wheelie in 1st, zap, etc). There's so much to learn and practice it's really just a matter of opening your eyes and swiching things up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babywalker Posted August 13, 2010 Report Share Posted August 13, 2010 Stu, we need to get something sorted out. As you know I don`t practise either and would benefit from more time on the bike Competition is best kind of practise so will see you Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copemech Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 Ditto,make some flags to make things more precise. Do flags help you "hop"? Or just dab more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
