>Circles<

Heyy. When you guys do circles, how tight are they? Also, are you sitting down or standing up? I can do like 5-10 circles now, but the diameters are like 20-25ft. Since i basically ride alone and there aren't alot of vids out there besides Pro vids, i don't know if this is good or not! Anyway...i'll try to put up a vid of when i just learned circles...hopefully.

Later

covertwar is a decent person
get your front wheel as high as possible, generally the higher the front wheel the tighter the circle and be firm on that back brake

dude, once you get the hang of it, circles are easy, it just depends on the road condition and such

8-10 on my full suspension with stainless steel braided lines, and XT calipier. The brakes really help though... that's why I'm letting you know what I'm running. I can only do circles around a VW bug though. I've seen guys do em in a tighter radius than the VW bug!

Re: >Circles<

I had 3.5 around a Cop car while he was doing paper work...then 2 weeks ago I did 8 full circles around two pillars that are about 10' apart from each other. Gunna go for 12+ on the next attempt...and maybe get it on video. What I need to do is do it during the day and get it on tape.
