How old were you when ...
 

How old were you when you started stunting ? I dont claim to be a stunna, but love to fuk around. I have to say that the bug hit me back when BMX freestyle was just starting out. Back somewhere in the mid 80s when I used to do bunny hops, endos, whoolies,and such. Howd you all start out?

Probally back when I was about 14 (Im 22 now)...I was never content with riding my mt. bike like I was supposed to...wheelies, stoppies, high chair stoppies, no-handers, blach blah blah...

Re: How old were you when ...
 

started out at 12 when my dad taught me to wheelie up a hill...then i learned to clutch it up...now i cant stop lovin this hobby....

Re: How old were you when ...
 

When I was around 11, I learned to pedal while pulling up the front on my bike.. I basically got 1 or 2 pedals in and busted my ass so fucking hard..I think it was my worst loop ever.. didn't even jump off.. just BANG!

After that I did bp standup wheelies for a couple years, oblivious to the rear brake.. just rode them untill I looped or slowly picked up speed.

Got a CR125, when I was 13 I learned to clutch up and then shift through the gears untill it was maxed out, still didn't know about the rear brake and looped it on the road in 4th.

Snowmobiling.. basic shit like seat standers, flamingo's, and 1 handers n shit.. I had a sled that could hold a bp wheelie at idle speed for ages... just dragged the tail.

Stopped dirtbiking, and got back on the bmx, learned coasters, manuals, circles and long stoppies.

Got a YZ250, learned a bit of brake control and could do slow wheelies.

Worked on the bmx a bit more.

And now have a 03' 636... rode it 5 times, working on touching BP on staggered from a dead stop... so close!

And the whole time I watched stunt vids.. back in the days of darius's r6 and wood's red 900RR.

Re: How old were you when ...
 

been doing acros since about 17...
real stunting- this year, 21

Re: How old were you when ...
 

like most people....i started off on bicycles with friends.
then at 10 i got my first db...got the hang of that...went to a bike show a year later and met a stunt group known as the "WHACKPACK" which i owe everything to because their vids motivated to me to stuntride.
got another db a few years later and started to really stunt that...but neighborhoods that ive lived in have a home owners associtation thingy and blah blah so ive never been able to get adequate seat time...but ive made the best of the time ive been given...and for my age i think (not to sound cocky) im pretty good.
recently picked up my first streetbike turning 16...still getting the hang of it and im still stuntriding my dirtbikes practicing coasters and trying to get fib circles but again i barley get any seatime so its like uggggh! lol
