thanks dude that means a lot. I just need a little more stoppie distance and some acros and I will be well rounded.

I agree with the guy who said acid drops to spindarella's are sweet. I love that shxxt. I used to do spindarella's on my gixxer but I got rid of it am an on a 636 and a 900rr now. The 636 just doesnt seem stable to me yet I am still learning it.

and to the guys who say hand stands are gay I ask why do you say that?
I can't even do a handstand up against a wall(honestly) I just don't have the strength.
I think handstands are sick especially on the street like jeff does in usbw3.

Re: acros

and if anyone whent to the comp a couple yeas ago in maine, bill and i killed sickest trick first and second with never seen or completed tricks. the trick i did was a reverse christ on the tank to a leap of faith to the rear seat still facing backwards to a 180 deactivator to skitch.
Bill my teamate did a reverse elavator to the tank then a leap of faith to the rear seat the the same a 180 deactivator to skitch. all on video ask teach nasty acro's there, the only reason i dont do that anymore is because i **** my bike up good all the time when i would practice it, so acros are for not evreyone, it is proven evrey day in comps or videos. The lamiest acros are done just to get the points in comps.

lets hear sum opinions

Re: acros

I'll admit I'm a huge acro fan! Circles get boring as ****kkkkk to me. I dont know why I just love them. It just seems more dangerous. Slow cirlces you fall and you most of the time you don't even end up laid on your back. Alot of acros if you **** up your sliding and your bikes gonna cruise till it hits something. And the crowds love it....

Re: acros

Im gonna have to agree with Z-Unit on this one... Acros are sick, but its important to be a well rounded rider...I can do alot of acro tricks (my friends get mad at me cause im small and agile) Ill agree beeing small and agile does help...but it also took *****!! The only bad crash I had this summer was from an acro trick( jumping from the pegs to the seat(which i think is harder then jumpin to the tank!) it was a nasty crash! Im much more educated in the sport now and appreciate throttle and brake control so much more... But any trick whether its wheelies or acros, it all takes skill and it all takes *****... A little bit of everything in vids is entertaining!!

Too much of anything gets boring!!

*EDIT* Except having fun with gurls!!

Easy acro's can be learned in a day. The ones listed above take a little more time.

You're right, it took me a long time to get that right. Unlike this pic, you just can't photochop the gayness out of
