Re: no brake-hand stoppies?
[yeah i know what your talking about, I do these some times, basicly you just get high enough that your useing your body weight, to keep it in the air, u just lean foward and its like your hanging over the front of the bike, you can let go of the break and it just feels like you floating, but the go over very easy, I had one bite me bad the other day. Im still feeling that.

Re: no brake-hand stoppies?
i've seen a couple clips of people doing this but i've never seen anyone do 50 feet...it's like 5-10.
and there is that guy in europe, he was a user on here cause he had that picture in his avatar. he only does it for a split second. he takes both hands off and then he has to grab the bars again because of obvious reasons that the bars have nothing to stabalize them and at the balance point with no weight the front wheel will turn sideways.
i think your friend exaggerated 50 feet a little.....maybe like 5 feet is what he saw.
