Tank Wheelies

I am having trouble with tank wheelies. The big problem is when I crank it I slip off the tank, back down to the seat. I don't have my tank dented in, or anything on my tank like sand paper.
Just wondering if there were any other pointer you cats could share that would help me out

straighten your arms so your elbows are locked and hang on. You can do them w/out grip tape and a dented tank

if your gonna stunt, dent your tank man. Just do a good job when you do it.

Hey f4i stunna i finally got my new tannk dented in on my f4i. I used a rubber mallot to start and then i banged it in with a 10lb weight in the center. I dont have any pics but it came out pretty good. Its comfortable when i do tank stunts. Even standing on it.

Re: Tank Wheelies

if you dont want to smash that tank in just try wearing differnt pairs of old jeans,the zx7 has the biggest faltest tank out there.and mines not dented or grip taped,try differnt pants..works for me but grip tape is your next option if you dont want your tank smashed.and be careful if you slam a tank wheelie down you can dent it on accident
