Bruised combo wheelies

I just wanted to see if other people out there were getting bruised on the inside of there thighs from doing stand-up to iron cross combo wheelies. I have two huge bruises the width of beer mugs. One bruise on each thigh.

I use do get the same thing. Instead of sliding up there, jump up there as high as you can.

I jump pretty high but i think the way my tank is caved in, is the reason for the bruises. The sides are edged pretty good. I figured that it would go away after awhile. Kinda like when i started doing high chair wheelies. The skin behind my knee got used to the pain and the bruises never came back.

I have the same problem. My tank is caved way in and it has pretty sharp edges on it. I taped some foam on the lip and it's fine now. Looks like garbage though.

Today i started going from stand up to double can-can to strangler. As soon as i start to strangle, my bike starts falling. I think im concentrating to hard on putting my leg on the windscreen and not balancing the bike high enough.
