Good question, i can pump it, but i have the problem that my circles are getting tighter and tighter and finally it's getting so tight that i make a turbine.. What i do is put a lot of pressure on my wheel when i make small turns

Yeah I noticed myself keeping my body weight more over the bike (further forward) as I recently learned to pump these. Oh yeah and kicking the air with my free foot towards the peg foot. Hope this helps!
