Sparks practice pics...
Some pics from yesterday practice, back riding properly now finally :YEAH let the practice begin.
Big thanks to Lisa ambler photography and ben whitear photog. You guys (and gal :YEAH) rock :YEAH
Flamingo circle.. I prob fell off shortly after this pic though
Was doing lots of no throttle seat standers, one foot on tank and so on... tried to do this.. no throttle can can, I struggled to keep the bike steady with my leg over the side though.. soon as I straightened up my arm and leg from this picture I stalled and went over the bars
need more practice with this one.
Hope ya like :YEAH
p.s
1) That hoodie makes me look fatter than I actualy am
and 2) The tyre pressure was up and down because I seem to have a slow puncture, i'd start of at 25psi and soon be down to 10
More pictures of everyone else that was practicing that day can be found here;

Re: Sparks practice pics...
Yeah, stock flipped and swapped... I REALLY like them, I've been on MX bars for pretty much all the time I've been stunt riding properly, and whilst I do love MX bars, I am going stock fully faired look (once I nail circles anyway) for shows and pics and vids and stuff (looks better in my opinion!) so I needed to change back to clip ons.. picked it up easily and now I much prefer it to MX bars ?? I feel more in control and circles are easier than with MX bars (for me anyway)
I really really want flipped stock 636 clip ons, but that means a 929/954 front end to make it happen....
might go for some freestyle 0 degrees, but to be honest i prefer the slight upward angle of the flipped stock ones.

Re: Sparks practice pics...
woodcrafts have nearly the same angle as 636. get a set for 43mm forks.
