back after "quitting" for 2 years...

alright i honestly need encouragement cus this is depressing. i "quit" after flipping a fast stoppie two years ago, but couldnt keep away. First wheel up out at the spot i got manhandled by the f4i. I was never good to begin with but ive completely lost it ....have a few laughs

Re: back after "quitting" for 2 years...

neg on the handbrake, everyone told me to learn with the foot brake first. Its not gravel its just a cheap road but it still hooks up good most of the time. No the depressing part was that this happened (though not as bad) at least 3 more times before i became a little defeated and decided to sit down .

One weird thing is that this little road is crowned and not to be making excuses but i kept dragging to the sides trying to get a good balance on it. Probobly just my lack of skill but does anyone have trouble with those while learning?

while learning yea, crowns are a bitch. good save tho.. I never let my bike go. I can heal, my frame cant... Key to learnin O's n such is getn real good at savin your bike. Just like u were, just yank the bike to the side, then on its way down rip up on the bars till your rubber side down.
