Hey all, I recently got big into street again, and I'm thinkin pedal grinds are the next big goal. I already know the "fundamentals" like grinding on the rear foot, feeble style. I was just wondering if there were any other little pointers anyone could throw out. Thanks dudes.

get speed, first try a ledge that drops off at the end so you can get the feel of the slide and the you just kind turn and hop and miraculasly you pop off

its sorta like similar to a feeble except its on your pedal, not peg. umm, yea, you do need more speed than a 50/50 or a feeble or smith or sumthin unless your pedals are so worn down(like mine) that they slide pretty good.

use your rear brake once you start your grind...that keeps the pedal straight...also it helps to have your cranks facing straight up and down that way if the ledge isn't all that high your rear wheel is still quite a ways off the ground.....other than that, practice, practice, practice...just like any trick
