Is this easier than the regular mccircle?  Almost seems like it would be.

Well for me...I can barely compleate a full rotation in a McCircle. Johnny is really good at McCirlce and Turbine. He makes it look very simple. I am going to take this information that I learned today and apply it with my other tricks to help me learn the Turbine. It makes sence to me after I slowed it down I could see his foot kicking fwd. I know I have not been doing that at all so we will see whats up today when I ride.

i've been having trouble with mccircles for over a month, so i'm really looking forward to this month's trick. maybe a qualified rider would be kind enough to post a step-by-step a la raddad's karl kruizer vid., adam diclaudio/raddad's megaspin how-to, or khe killah's hang 5 tutorial--all of which had great tips and understandable breakdowns.

RadDad.

thanks for that video. Really sweet walkthrough how to turbine it.

I am going to try it as soon as I have strength in my left arm again. I seem to have strained it at some point in the last couple of weeks and now whenever I ride for more than 15 minutes, it hurts. Right now I barely have the strength to lift my arm to take a drink of beer :(

3 nights in a row of riding for an hour I guess is what did it this time.

Johnny and I shot the footage at JoMoPro in April. I have so much stuff from JoMoPro that I still have not touched. It was time to move on to other projects. I thought it was the perfect time to release it since it deals with Trick of the Month. Maybe I can get some one at the O.G. to give a detailed break down on how to do the basic Mc Circle I have been struggling with any spinning trick.

Your welcome for the How-Tos glad that they are helpping out. I am getting consitant enough that I can do some more of the basic tricks that I do all the time now. I have Halfhiker in the works.

Slightly off Topic- Last month I was trying to get it done but I didn't quite make it. I got it in now...a Hitchhiker Juggler.

Nice man I like how you do that. I bet you'll have it down by the end of the month.

I haven't been able to work on this much because it's been raining and my tires are too slick. Hopefully I'll get some dry weather soon.

Any more tips on this?

I went out and tried a few dozen times tonight, I get a kick in and feel like I am falling off both front and backwards. I can't seem to find a balance point.

After I kick the wheel I feel like I am falling over the bars. When I am not kicking I fall backwards.

Is there a certain body position or something that will help? Granted this was the second session that I was trying a McCircle.
