Re: skitchin and fallin vid..

Ok, instead of jumping back there, slide up on the rear seat really fast then take a shorter hop off. I never jump straight up and off unless it's for going into a run behind without the skitch

Re: skitchin and fallin vid..

As gay as these guys are gonna say they are, if you want to please a crowd, you'll need bar tricks. And Burnouts. They love em. Chainsaws are a crowd fav. But work on some cochise's, and some zeros and **** for a little variation without having to take it too crazy at first. Some Ape hangers?? Just depends on what you want to do.

i just seen this **** and telling him to punch himself in the face was all i could think, seriously.

i guess, i can cut this guy a little slack, hes asking how to skitch, not "how do i make good sparks?"


make sure to get yourself some of these and strap them to your boots for effect-

Re: skitchin and fallin vid..

Its definatelt lookin to me you are puttin too much weight on your feet...start out slowly puttin weight down so you can start to feel how much resistance your shoes have on the road relative to weight... and for the love of god. dont jump back from the seat right away like that ...slide back and then slide off...lol
but hey +1 on the good short crash vid that makes me laugh

hey keep on tryin to skitch. I can do them fast or slow. all you are doin is pulling your wieght to one side and your bike falls over. try an keep your weight straight with the bike and let the bike pull you. you can rest you stomach on the back seat to take some wieght off you feet. I hold on to the front of the back seat and lean back with my feet in front of me and slide. I'll post a vid of me doin it in a few hours when i get my computer.
