I gotta say, I've been thinking about stoppies a lot on my time off from riding since I moved up here from Florida.......

Out of all the trick platforms, I feel stoppies haven't progressed much in the sport. I've seen slalom stoppies only twice, and I think they show a supreme amount of balance and control on the front wheel. Why doesn't anyone do them?

Also, would it be possible to do an "S" stoppie? Cut it to one side ninety degrees, straighten it and pull it to the other ninety.......

I think if someone pulled that off it would be way more than . It would be godly.

 

Clearly you have not been to an event lately or watched any of the runs online.

 

not swinging on any ones ***** or any thing but you should see bill d doing stoppies and switching hands mid stoppie , doing way better then 180 stoppies with his left hand and so many other people doing different stoppie tricks like foot in the bar stoppie flamingo's and all kinds of crazy switch back stoppies ....they have progressed

 

+1 i cant even stunt and i know that...****...i can hardly even ride lol

 

^^^^ what??? honesty on stunt life ???
now i know the world is ending

 

cut me some slack...just got my first bike a bit ago...trying to learn though. now that i actually have a license, i can ride it on the streets and feel comfy. now i gotta practice stunts. and say "****...that hurts" when i **** up.

loads too slowly. a couple of youtubes servers are slow as ****, thats one of them

 

that was one stoppie with a 90 at the end. Gary Rothwells been doing that since 1994. I do feel a tiny tiny bit stupid for watching a 1:15 video of a 0:05 stoppie though

 

I think Bill D does every kind of stoppie there is.Besides Kanes healklicker ****.

 

or seen you on the streets :YEAH

 

obviously you dont do stoppies .. like all other sports , someone comes along raises the bar and the sport goes to further lengths to be extreme.. wheelies started as 4thgear rev -limiter 140mph double front peg wheelies, more people wanted to be different and started raising the bar .. unless you roll smooth , clean and consistent 300+ ft , your not even considered a stoppie rider .. imo .. and in our stunt community , not many can do that, but when the numbers start doubleing , you will see them pushed to new limits .. sorry if i bounced all over there ..!!
