damn tony did you wreak after stuntoberfest 06?

Tony L

a month before... that was kinda my proove to myself that I wasn't scared comp where all I did was roll stoppies. That said and done I hit off 550 from the 300 that weekend and now I'm set. I'll leave it to you now

T-NECK

Even on huge long horn bars with sick rise like I have, you should still have a substantial amount of the rear of the bike above your helmet.

i have a gpr stabilizer.. i wouldnt even attempt a stoppie until i bought one.. bought it 5 days ago.. beenn practicing every day since

Tony L

Which BTW mark your killin it!

Look at the Old school OG's tho Matt Gorka or Joe Brown Murdered Stoppies Gorka on a 900 no damper with DB Bars Crazy Far. Its all prace

Another Tip:
Dont Just pull the brakes and expect the bike to come up you need to grip the bike with your legs and acutally huck the bike up like a seat bounce and lock out till the bike gets to BP. Never chop the brake that'll cause a flip almost instantly

T-NECK

thanks
yeah i really dont start using my damper until I get into high third gear approaches.

-SKETCHY-

Yea Tony. Don't be scared to jank it up there

(edit.. not sure if jank is really a word but it seemed appropriate at the time.)

Tony L

the sad part is as low as my stoppies looked on the street fighter that was BP the pic when the brake side is shown I almost flipped there

I love stoppies but i'm all about the technical ones now no long distance for me.

I think dampers arn't really needed till you hit speed or you got a surface that can jack your front end around. You Defiantly got that stopples on lock tho

CPStar

Im pretty convinced that a dampner isnt needed until your ROLLIN TALL!! And some of u OG rollers need to keep giving good advice like what TONY said.... get ur knees tight and high on the tank AND the transition from gas to brake has to be fast. Like bouncing the bike up. THat took me a ****** long *** time to realize.

Where is DLish on this ****? He's got mad stoppies!

Do you guys think it's better to keep your *** on the seat or hang way over the tank. I tend to have may *** off the seat, but looking at your pics, you guys are barely off them???!!!??

DerekMey

Ryan Cramer from team DV8

You can see they have their asses way off the seat.

Is it more just locking your thighs??? blah....

CPStar

Yea totally....from my experience getting way up on the tank and squeezing your thighs pretty tight is the way to go. But its the quick POP thats so crucial. Cause u preserve the speed. Some tend to coast a bit before they grab brake. Big NO NO

T-NECK

Heres a few I posted on Susa. It feels best for me when im on the seat.
