what he said but fether the break so you keep it level, so you can keep the stoppie till the end not just let the break off and slam down.
it one off them things when you cant really do that well then one day its easy and your doin 20-30 ft every time
keep it up

Re: Praticed some stoppies=weak

You are making progress man!

Like everyone else has been saying, you basically gotta get the *** end up faster (I do the same thing) listen to how fast you are going when you pull in the clutch in that vid, but the rear wheel doesn't come off the floor till you've scrubbed some substantial speed! Although I would be weary of grabbing that front brake too hard or fast, on that pavement. looks dirty as hell. Could be a recipe for eating ****. Also I would put a dampner on that *****, looks like that front wheel is all over the place.
