Re: highchairs

I find it easier to sit back on the back of the seat, I cant get them to come up if Im sitting against the tank.

Re: highchairs

do what everyone is telling you...it takes a bit to learn but they are fun as hell especially when you do highchair circles, that brings it to a whole new level...i don't know if anyone else has done this but i have a video of me doing them, and i will post it as soon as my computer is running right again

Re: highchairs

I do em in first. Come to almost a complete stop and let er rip. once you find the point where it comes up easy in first you'll be rockin em easy. I'm still workin on the balancing part of em lol my longest one is probably only like 100 ft or so i cant keep em straight that slow yet in highchair. try to be real smooth it helps

Re: highchairs

Sitting way back on the tail, they come up easy, but look like you're poopin' or something. Sit up in the dip of the seat. The bars should be in the bend of your knees. When you hit the gas and tug the bars, throw your legs up in the air and bring the bike up to them. The momentum of your legs coming up helps the bike come up. BTW, I'm doing this in first.

Re: highchairs

I'm sure it's possible..not much different than spreader circles (except that in a spreader, you can still grab the brake in an emergency)..I'm not saying I've tried it or anything, but I think it can be done with no handbrake.
