Cool man glad I could be of some help.  Keep up your riding, looking real good.  I couldn't even come close to those double-footed fork glides for like months.  Keep it up  :beer:

Why not, once you got forkglides down doing them double footed is no problem.. And I wouldn't care for double footed forkglides if I was able to pull off no hand hikers.  ;D

Haha thanks man. Yea I worked on it a lot when I first started and left it alone for a while. Then when I came back to it, it came way way easier. Just need to get it a bit smoother and learn how to pump those steams so I can get into something else.  :beer:

Yea it's a nice spot I just found, a parking garage down the road. It's nice usually but there's a crowd of kids that like to longboard down the whole thing so sometimes it sounds like a hurricane is passing through but haha.

Well I just learned it, but what helped me a lot was putting more emphasis on the part where you grab the seat and pull it around. In the beginning it will feel pretty scary to actually pull the whole bike from in front of you and put it in front of you while spinning seeing as you get rid of all that support. You just really have to have forward steams on lock in little circles and then treat this trick as just a way to get into those steams. Idk man hope it helps!  :beer:
