How many of you started stunting alone? how far have you come on ur own? Idle tricks? bar tricks? acros?. I ask cuz there are no stunters in my area at all.The only time I ever stunted was with other people and that made me learn stuff but now I'm stuck with old tricks skitchn,highway wheelies,christ,burnies. Not asking for help just curious what motivated ya to push urself when no one else was around

 

There are soooo many vids.. just find one that motivates you to go out and practice. 99% of the time I just have this urge to go ride.

 

+1 on that ****. Videos get you hyped and show you what's possible. Then you can go out there and do stuff you never thought possible.

 

most of the time i ride by myself, in 2 summers ive learned staggerd, ss,ralph L circles, hc scrapes, spreaders scrapes etc, no handers, rolling burnouts, straight line combos, starting on circle combos now, all kinds of ****, before i used to be really scared of the bike and falling and stuff, but now im really confident and keep pushing myself, what motivates me its watching myself progressing and watching in video what i thought i would never accomplish, o and btw watching haters faces when they see me doing **** they will never accomplish, see my biggest motivation its HATERS, most haters cant ride fo ****, so all they do its talk crap and just dream of performing like whoever they hating on,

 

You got to do it for the love of the sport. When I get my new bike I'm gonna be at the lots all the time. The people who ride near me do all street ****. What is mostly what I did too. I'm gonna try to keep it of the streets and into the lots. I'm not scared of hurting someone, I'm confident in my skills. I just don't want to get my liscense taken away and not be able to ride.
I'll practice by myself and I'll have a blast doing it. You have to want this for yourself, not do it to impress people. I love stunting and i'm getting good pretty quick. I have a couple friends that just want to do it to show off. The've had bikes for over a year and can't ride worth ****. The only time they wheelie is when people are around so they suck. I practice by myself and in 4 days I was 10x better than them after a year.

There was a good quote in passion and brotherhood I really liked.

well said, old man :YEAH

one thing i recommend is to have someone around in case u get hurt though. dont stunt totally alone.

 

its deff harder and takes longer to learn alone or with people on same level i am dyin to ride with someone better than me cause i know they will help alot

 

can't say it any better than that:YEAH

 

motivation: stuntlife.com - learned everything from you guys

 

yea the reason I bought a streetbike was from watching the early starboyz videos and some others I'm not gonna mention. SL.com is a deff. motivator, cant belive I've been on this site for over four years.GSXRMON good post thats the response I was looking for

 

same here... even back home when i GOT into it there where only a few guys that stunted and they acted like they were better than everyone... they would give you some pointers if you talked to em but they would never ride w/ anyone else.... kinda like they wanted to be the only good ones... stunt life has taught me ALMOST all i know (other than trial and error) what sucks is i have no one around here thats into it so i have no one to take pics or film sucks ***... i just needa move somewhere worth a damn!

and yeah i think its affected my progress ALOT.... been on here for 3 years... only been serious about stuntin for the last 2 though... and had to take a year off in the middle due to my bike bein siezed by the cops and me bein a broke *** at the time.... but either way i fell like i should be ALOT better than i am and i know that a big part of it is due to not havin anyone else to stunt with/learn from
