sheesh, young people these days.

a wheelie or whatever
a wheelie or whatever
Shift into a low gear, and pedal really fast
It's like rolling your tongue or wiggling your ears. Either you can do 'em or you can't.
well how do those damn trials riders wheelie so long.
its pissing me off cause i can't even bunnyhop on my bike.
it may be to heavy but my friends can do it fine. here is a pic of it.

Uh...pedal hard with your weight centered over your rear wheel, then pull up on the bars? Thats how I've always done them...
I have a zeppelin attached to my handlebars.
A dozen weather balloons may work as well.

what I'm wondering with is this. I have recently bought a BMX, although I'm too afraid to ride it.
If you do manuals, you must fall over backwards like 8748948 times. How do you not kill your back and head, well I would have a helmet on, but still? Whats the secret? How and where do you practice? Dirt? Grass?

I went with hydraulics, kinda like those lowrider cars. One flip of a switch and my front end is way up.
Yes. I can't ride a wheelie for sh*t, but I was practicing last weekend on grass. Landed on my hip a few times, but no worries as I was in grass.
I can't ride wheelies for ****...but I can bunnyhop my 37lbs Gemini about 18"
The bridges like they have in BC (I'm assuming thats what you mean by catwalks) just take practice...keep your momentum and don't look down. I just did the biggest one i have ever done on Tuesday...about 12' in the air.

If your doing a manual and you start to go over... hit the brakes before its too late. I leaned this the EXTREMELY hard way.Originally posted by Knuckleslammer
