When learning a Christ, do you do them in netural?

How fast should you be going?

 

def do it in neutral, speed up in first to bout 25ish click into neutral and hop up, then stand up SLOWLY. when it starts to wobble a lil hop down and ur good to go

 

25ish? Isn't that a little slow? I'd get used to doing it while my bike isn't moving, then try it around 40. That way the speed keeps you more stable.

 

i say 25, because the newby thing which i did to was to do em faster so its more stable. but u are still new and unstabel so i say do em slower and jsut take ur time. that way if u do crash u might be able to run and catach the bike or it wont hurt as much...i used to do em at like 35-40ish in neutral, and wud ride em out tioo like 5 mph so , no i dont think 25 is to slow

 

Agreed, learn em slow, hurts less. Do a search on SL.

 

Good point about being a newb at it and being unstable. Yeah...try 'em at 25, it def. will hurt less if something goes wrong.

 

Hmmm I never put it in neutral... never had a problem. I did always go about 40, makes it much more stable. Since I didn't click into neutral, I just shifted into 3rd or so, to keep it going for a bit.
