Nice Mellon!
I have many question.


What are you filming on? It's lovely and clear.
You have one black arm! I didn't think mixed race worked like that.


I've been off the forum as my BP has been too low to do any riding for a couple of weeks.
Makes me sad seeing everyone having fun in the sun. Boo my health, boooo!

Just a quick update on the steams :) consistency is that you????
Rite starting to get on with my steams not as good as you by the look of it melon man! Grabbing the seat with the other hand is just too strange for me at min.
I've gotten a lot better at the ride in n the ride out is just about dialled, the problem was the whole middle part :) took a few sessions to get out of just carving left I'm now at the stage where I can pretty much go where I want the problem is after soo many sessions of gooooo leeeeffft now that I'm tryin to switch hands it's hard for me to carve right. Practice is all it takes tho I guess lol.
Not many days left now but il try and get a vid done before the months out nothing pretty like not much variation either lol just about gettin double footed.
Peas!
Ride on.  :beer:

It's like as soon as the weather has been nice my health has plummeted.

Yay! Managed a half hour session today. Took my girlfriend with me in case of blackouts.
Managed one full circle doing a reverse steamroller before looping out and loosing the bike.
I'm feeling very pleased that I have progressed by not riding for a couple of weeks.


I still can't get my head round forwards steams but who cares! Just so pleased to be on my bike.

Sometimes i don't ride for a few days or weeks and when i get back on it "CLICK" somethings just fall into place and i get something i've never got or i get out of something i've never gotten out of before or even just spin a little bit more

Keep us posted on your ridin' and your health dude :-)

I don't think I am going to make my goal of rolling into and carving a steamroller by the end of the month.  >:(
I can ride into (with touching) and roll for about 20ft before stepping off (falling backwards). I must say this is better than when I started learning steamrollers at the first part of the month.

Anyhow I will post a video on the last day of the month.

Nice again mate! Switch feels horrible to me, I can't do it at all. Well switch foot is ok but switch hand I can't handle. Really impressed with the quality of the video on the 4s, I should film something on mine.

All going well. Managing to ride into my revers steams; roll for a bit; then fall on the bike trying to get back on. Did I used to run super narrow bars or has my arse gotten that much bigger?

Cheers melon man! The problem i have with catching with my left hand is when I do catch the seat the frame always seems past 180 and it forces me to carve to the left ive cracked it now tho I think lol
I need to get trying the grab with my other hand tho  :beer:

Yeah man i'm the same and there is a jerk when i have to pull the bike up and kick my leg forward at the same time to lift the seat and then push down instantly as to not loose balance  ??? ???
