drroot Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 (edited) Hi, a popular pro technique now a days is to balance on the rear wheel and hop in place, see in this nice video http://www.photobysergio.fr/jimmy-video-rudolphe.html Anybody on this forum has mastered this and can explain how to go about acquiring the technique? Cheers, Fons. Edited November 14, 2011 by DrRoot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasntme Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 (edited) Balancing on 2 wheels is hard enough! Your link has a full stop at the end so does not work, try http://www.photobysergio.fr/jimmy-video-rudolphe.html Edited November 13, 2011 by wasntme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmyl Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 I think if you are good enough you dont't need to ask. In principal technique is throttle control, clutch control, balance and a bit of back brake!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coxy Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 Start out by trying the technique on a small hill as this will help to begin with and just try using your throttle back brake and clutch to keep the front wheel in the air whilst moving up the hill and keep stopping. Once youve mastered that you can move on to doing the same but then compressing and releasing your suspension so that you begin hopping rather than just wheelying. Once youve mastered that you'll find that doing it on a flat surface etc should be fairly easy to do. I dont think that its a technique that is really required unless you are doing some pretty hard trials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
