Re: Multiple ?'s about stoppies.
if your sliding a power then your leaning back when you are supposed to be leaning forward. stoppies are all about body english. when you go into them get going about 30-40 lean over the front of the bike and just squeeze the brakes till the *** end comes up..do this 100 times and eventually you'll get the feel for it. when you slide the frontend it means you have to much weight on the rear...once you get that down your next ? will be "how come the bike keeps kicking to the right?" and the answer is your not high enough,and you need to drop your shoulders to correct it. practice doing them a 1000 times and you just might get it down...good luck

If you slide the tire (with the rare exception of being in sand or oil) you are using too much brake and not the right body position/weight transfer.

Re: Multiple ?'s about stoppies.
Been searching a lot through youtube looking for stoppie vids but no one really films the initiation, just the middle through the end.
Also, what's more the business? The Alpinestar's white and camo Sniper or the Icon white and camo Arc Mesh?
