Yeah mate, can you manual 180?

Its the same kinda thing, as in you need to be coming off the wall from your back wheel and learning over your bars slightly, its a weird position to be in but that's what it feels like. Other than that the usual tips like keep your head turned and pull up hard, takes quite a bit of effort, you kinda have to muscle it round.

Hope that helps mate, sorry I ain't great at explaining these things, if you can already wallride & you can 180, they shouldn't take too long, took me like maybe 10 try's.

Oh one more thing when you get on the wall and your about to 180 off you want your front tire higher than the rear.

good luck, let me know you get on with em.

No regrets, just experiences & mistakes that Ive learnt from.

So much I'm grateful for in my life, but most of all I'm thankful to be alive, for my girlfriend, my son, my family & my dogs.

Ok so vital members to live with, that's a tough one but I'd have to say...

#1 You, cuz we both in that crazy white guy gang, and you seem like a good dude.
#2 Topsey, cuz he's awesome and I've made a friend for life there.
#3 sickdude so he can teach me those steezy 90s
#4 thebosspremium because I need some of that asian swag in my life. Haha
#5 no one else could stay cuz I'd need that other room to store all of topsey's frames and parts. Lmao

Haha Yeah that's true, fuck knows why tho, sounds dumb don't it.

Just looked it up and apparently the origin of the word fag comes from old English where a fag was a bundle of sticks used for kindling to start fires.

Is it true you guys call ya ass a fanny? A fanny is a woman's vag over here lol

I think that's why faggot has become a derogatory word for homosexuals. Some people want them to burn...
Fanny is a kinda word a granny would use to say ass. A normal person wouldn't. If i'm ever in the U.K. and someone tells me they had a fag in their mouth i'm gonna laugh soooo hard!

Thanx bro,

Still in the process of learning bars myself, but I'm close. Its all about the timing and body position.

Favourite tricks has got to be any 360 variation, but I love all grinds also.

Rode for about 5/6 years in my teens I think (dirt & street) then stopped for over 10yrs then started riding street again 2 years ago, so about 7 in total but I've been taking it a lot more serious this time round.

Edit coming soon.

Got my first bmx age 12, but my first bike ever was about age 3 I think....long time ago.

Park riding isn't really my thing, but I love to watch stylish riders like ruben & hawk ect.

Fav stair trick...any 3 variation.

Fav combo...Any grind combo

Best part: all my animal / skavenger parts.
Worst part: all the parts on my first bmx, (DYNO VFR), as much as I loved that thing, it was pretty shit.

MTB is cool and I respect that shit but its not for me. 20" FTW

I like camping, it's been a while tho.

As I kid I always looked up to my dad, still do.

Not sure I've got a favourite quote, but I've read tons that have got me thinking.

I'm 32 years young.
Haha hope you weren't going commando that day.
Don't think I have a favourite style of music, my tastes change all the time, but I like reggae, house, rock, hip hop, anything that's decent really, no pop shit tho.
I'm not a massive gamer, gta is awesome tho.
I got tons of respect for flatland riders but I've never had any real interest in it.

It was in my mid teens when I got hurt, I can't remember exactly how old I was but somewhere between 13 & 15 I think, I basically wanted to ride my bike down this real skinny declined brick slope, it had a massive drop about twice, maybe 3 times my height on the other side. Looking back I wouldn't even attempt this today, I really didn't think it thru at the time. It was kinda impossible. lol

So I climb up onto this wall and pull my bike up and try to position it on the ledge ready to ride down, I get over my bike and as I try to get my feet on the pedals, I just feel myself leaning over to the left, don't remember anything after that. I was KO'd.

no idea how long I was out for, but the next thing I remember was waking up and there was some little kid poking me in the face saying, "look grandad he's bleeding", the old guy asked if I was ok and do I need an ambulance, but I was proper dazed and confused & told him I was fine and tried to pedal away, but that wasn't happening.

Like every couple of minutes I kept passing out, took me ages to get home, it was scary as fuck. I didn't know what the fuck was going on, I couldn't see properly either. When I got home I just went straight to bed, I didn't even tell my parents what had happened, I was scared my they wouldn't let me ride anymore so I dumbed it down when they asked the next day and just said I'd just fell off my bike, it was bad tho, i never went to hospital so no X-rays to say my skull was fractured but I could feel the bones cracking and shit when I touched my eyebrow...scary shit man, took me ages to feel "normal" again, it sucked.

Yeah I'd have to say animal is my favourite company, they're parts are legit, plus I always really liked that kind of riding / filming they put out.

Not really a massive fan of metal, I really like system of a down tho.

Bent forks & cracked frame, I've been lucky with my parts really (touch wood)

My fave thing to do on flatground would be...3tap > manual 180 > backwards manual > fullcab

I can fakie for longer than I can manual for sure.
