  1. I just had this idea. If we can get some good people on this thread. We
    should have people request tricks, and then everyone tries that trick,
    first person to do it gets a point and they pick the next trick.
    Request #1: A 180 unispin to seat drag to that hopping seat whip move.
    I just think it would be a really cool loking trick.

  3. I think he MAY be talking about the trick where you go from seat drag in
    the front to seat drag in the back by jumping.

  4. are you talking about the thing where you drop the seat and hold it in
    your feet and then spin 180?
    if yes, you couldn't really do that out of a seat drag....

  5. 180 unispin drop the seat ride, then jump over the seat while grasping
    the wheel with your legs, since the seat is on the ground. You'll jump
    over the seat to sitting drag in the back, you started in the front.

  7. Has anyone at all here landed a seatwhip? I was under the impression
    that the only ones who have landed them are Frenchmen or Germans who
    don't post here.

    Your game is a nice idea, but I don't think the seatwhip is a good way
    to start it off.

  8. I don't think anyone has landed a seatwhip yet. Don't think it would
    actually be that hard when someone does get it, but I have yet to see
    it.

    If your referring to the move where you bounce around with the seat
    dropped and hop over it so it is in front or back, that is kinda a
    silly looking trick, but it is probably the first step to learning a
    seatwhip

  9. i dont fully understand this seatwhip, ive seen where the person has the
    seat on the ground infront of them, jump and have it go under them to
    end up behind them

    )--0 *jumps* 0--(

    so what excactly is the seatwhip, im just fully grasping the image from
    your discriptions yet lol

  10. A seatwhip would be where you air up and fling the seat/frame 360
    degrees around on it's vertical axis. It is the same thing as a
    seatwhip stall (it's in the U2 trailer), but without stalling on
    anything. Been a trick that a lot of riders have thought of doing for
    10+ years, but I don't think anyone has really taken the time to learn
    it...

  11. Oh, i get it now, i landed my first one of those today =p

    I pedal grabbed on a electrical box (one of those big green ones that
    are like 3-4ish feet off the ground) and that also was my highest SIF
    hop ever, then im up there and started thinking "i saw it on a movie,
    so i bet i can do it" and threw my seat, caught it as it came around,
    jumped off, and landed =p

    I wanna see someone do this trick now, without stalling on something
    youll need to get some good air-time lol

  12. OK I meant that trick where you hop over the seat, and I meant from back
    to front. If no one here can do that then let's have someone else
    start it off. First one to request a trick gets the request. Also if
    you can't win without posting a video of the trick (That was probably
    obvious, but I didn't say it).
