Here is another bar hump. I love this tabletop.
I'm flying out to ashland for two weeks on Wednesday to meet my cousins. To bad I cant bring my bike. :mumble:

haha u guys have it down pretty well, except u need to bow your legs.that makes it look even more hidious.
What do you mean, show me a picture?
ok i cant find a pic of it but sometimes theyre in ridebmx magazine...your back has to be almost paralell with your fork bow your knees like a cowboy haha thats the best i can describe it.the point of barhumps is too make it look like u do it on purpose, like a really bad looking trick.i mean dont try hard, just to learn it.some of these pics are anything but a barhump...haha
This is great thread for me to ask about humping habits!
I'm pretty happy catching air, but I haven't quite figured out the bar-hump yet- so far I've relied on speed and keeping my weight back to keep the front end from dropping. I know that mastering the bar-hump is the next step. In fact I've pulled it off a few times on kickers and it felt great- I'm just not sure how to make it happen on flatter jumps and drops.
Any tips? Seems like when I did do it, I felt like I wasstanding up, straightening my body and pulling my bars towards my belt line...

Pretend the bar is a girl you're hitting from the back. That is all.F.M. said:
In those pictures I meant to do them for this thread. I think I get what you mean- the bike more vertical and legs extended down and pulling the par in more. I just need to find the right jump.
Your *supposed* to do it the other way.mtnbrider said:Here is another bar hump. I love this tabletop.
What other way?
he was 1/2 way through a 360...duh....:Jeenyus:. said:Your *supposed* to do it the other way.
The trick to it is to take it slow. Start off with quickies, and then step it up from thereF.M. said:
I was going both ways. Is one side different?
I own all in the bar hump department.

well...I guess its kinda like midget porn, whatever your into...(can i say midget porn here? huhuh midget porn...haha)

this thread is awesome
Here is another from my NW trip. THis is in Orcas Is, WA. I went to the Exchange (a junkyard where you take what you want and make a donation) and got a sawhorse and steel tabletop. I cut the sawhorse legs so they were shorter on one side (for a downhill slope) and bolted the tabletop to it to make an almost flat jump like a ledge. I was jumping 15 feet off it. This is my avatar.

you guys are doing it all wrong. you're "dry humping", like on prom night. you have to disrobe to get the real hump action going on. i'll try to have some new-true bar hump pics up in the near future....well, at least with boxers on
