Anybody doing real stunts?
Anyone doing any real stunts on their BMX's? I'm not talking like endo's and wheelies and stuff, I mean like flatland stuff. Bar-Endo's anyone? Spastic Death-trucks? Cyclones? Infinity Rolls?
Just wondering. I'm starting to do some of that stuff.

i've been riding flatland for about 3-4 years. I'm doing b-wards hitchhikers, spinning b-wards steamrollres to turbined forward hitchhikers. Firehydrants to bwards karl kruizers. wheelchairs. lots of fun stuff. the unfortunate thing for me, is i skipped a lot of the basic tricks and went for the hard tricks. Like - I can roll backwards hang nothings for hours, but i can't roll a forward hang 5 if my life depended on it. lol. learn as much of the basics as you can, it will help you in the long run.

Yeah i've been working on hang 5's.. I can roll them for about 4 seconds at best. Mind you i'm not doing them right either. I put one leg over the bars onto the front left peg, and keep the other on the pedal, then just try and heave myself up to the balance point. Sometimes it works for a few seconds, somtimes it doesn't. I'm gonna work on good ones today.

If one leg is over the handlebars on the peg, you are kind of rolling a frontyard. a variation of a frontyard anyway. normal front yards are pretty easy to learn. I scuff with my right foot, so i'll explain it that way. Put your right leg over the handlebars and let it just float over the tire. here's kinda the tricky part. It's your choice to use the brakes or not.. I don't. Anyway, jam your foot into the tire, and at the same time bring your left foot up to the peg. As soon as your foot is on the peg, push forward on the tire with your right foot, and drag it back. Keep doing that. You MIGHT have to tap your brakes if you don't get the back end up high enough. Now, this is a front wheel scuffing trick, so your back wheel will be completely off the ground durring the trick. When you're ready to land, just stop scuffing, put your left foot back on the pedal, and bring your right leg back over.
