Whiplash is easy ;D
I am training to hold the same position ;)

i can do full rotate the frame if my left leg still in the peg... but at the moment i try to put my other feet , everything collapses !!!  ^_^

ive got it sometimes jumping back to the pedals , but thats 50/1 tries...

and that position is weird , but i want it so bad  ^_^
please dont set yourself on fire.

I can tell right now, your not leaning over the bars far enough on the whiplash. That is what mine look like when I pu$$ out and don't lean far enough. You really have to commit more and lean farther forward then you think is needed.

decided to start training myself to ride a little differently. worked on turbine to juggler but didn't get it, usually I do the turbine after the juggler. avoiding pumping, trying to eliminate dead space between tricks.

practice

I'm sure you've posted that vid before ollie, but still, it rocks and you have a rad style!
Isn't that bike a bit small for you?

Oh yeah we did that back in '88. Called it a "squeak scoot." Right up there with the "invisible half pipe" for goofy fun. Try it without the handlebars and forks. Even more fun.

From a few days ago... I work on Time Machines here and there. Any tips on how to get a tight spin out of this?

EDIT: I have managed to spin this thing a bunch of times, but I just fall off. I'm at the end of one of the Toronto contest vids spinning and falling off.

Sooo... Time Machines. Kinda...



And this is from today. First time I've ever tried this step around thing, only took a couple hours to learn. Tomorrow I'll probably try to lean forward and start the whole Front Yard process... I'd like to glide that for a while and then slowly whip into a Halfpacker.

Step over into Front Yard thing

monday


last night the steam turbines were at least getting more consistent, tho I still need to roll back some more I think to smooth 'em out. right now I find myself trying to pump out so I can link it, but there's a tendency to get stuck in a tight circle/spin. working on kick and no kick versions. would like to not touch the tire at all tho
