stoppies hurt so i dont do them.. but like he said its prolly cause your gettin them to hot... but ive never had that problem with mine.. maybe you glazed the pads by not breaking them in before you started doing stoppies perhaps

no your not j/k that **** really does hurt! as stupid as it sounds i would try them on asphalt if i had a place to practice... its to hard on grass/dirt to control the front tires.. sometimes they want to slide sometimes they want to STOP DEAD!
