HOW - TO'S

Note: some of these tricks CAN BE DANGEROUS!!!!!!!!!!!! I am at no fault for your injuries!!!!!!!!!

Easier Tricks: Big Air: You can do these on basically anything, it will probably look best on a box-jump or a dirt jump.When you are rolling up to the jump, try to keep your eyes on the lip of the jump,when your front tire hits the lip of the jump you wanna pull up as hard as you can, then kick up your back tire. So basically it's like a bunny-hop on steroids.The more you practice the better you will get, so keep practicing. X-up:After hitting a jump when you are airborn, you wanna move your legs back a little to clear the bars, and basically cross your arms like an X. And then just reverse that and land. No-Hander:Once you are airborn off a jump, lean back and pinch your seat, and take your hands off and get them back on before you land.Pinching your seat will keep the front end of your bike from dropping.You may not get a very big extension on the first couple of tries at it but with time and practice you will get better and you will start extending your arms more and more. No-Footer: When you are airborn off of a jump,you wanna kinda jump up off your pedals,if you are doing this trick on a box-jump you wanna make sure you can clear the transition before you take a go at this.It doesnt take much imagination too figure out what you are going to land on if you dont get both feet back on.

Harder Tricks: Barspin:Once you are airborn off of a jump, you wanna pinch your seat with your knees, then all you have to do is throw your bars, catch them and land it. You might wanna try alot of these and get comfortable with them before you try it in the air. 360:When you are reaching the lip of the jump, start turning your tire a little bit the way you wanna spin once you are airborn, you wanna bring the bars close up to your chest(this will allow you to spin faster) and keep turning your head in return your body and bike will spin with it. Tailwhip: To start trying this trick, I would get really comfortable with your bike. Doing a tailwhip usually requires alot of air, unless your Colin Mackay and can bust em' out over any wedge, or even dropping in to a quarter pipe. When you are coming up to jump make sure you have a good amount of speed, and try to get alot of air. Once you are in the air, lift your right leg off the pedal and clear of the frame. Then kick the frame hard with your left foot. You will also want to help the rotation by "pumping" your handlebars. When the frame is coming around you want to stop it with your left foot and get both feet on the pedals before you land. This is to spin the frame counter-clockwise, if you feel more comfortable spinning it clockwise, just reverse everything. Manual: This is basicly a wheelie without pedalling. Sounds easy huh? Think again. You want to make sure you are balanced on your bike, and pull up the front end. Its gonna be hard to get used to, but you have to lean way back, on the edge of flipping over backwards. You can help balance a manual with your feet by "pumping" the pedals. Once you learn this, you can link tricks up, and make some killer tricks look even better! This is a good trick to impress all your friends.
