    yea, after the pedals part, I couldn't really think of what else to do.
    perhaps a spray of PAM on the tire?

    haha, that would be funny.

    how about like with a patch over one eye, or you have to do the trials
    line with one hand in your pocket

  2. So, I'm making an all natrual trials video.

    It's just gonna take me awhile, I'm filming it really slow because of
    my back. I'm just filming like one or two shots at a time here and
    there to make sure I don't overdo it.

    But it'll be cool.

    didn't think of that. that's a good idea. or maybe, opposite hand
    holding the seat than what you normally do.

    I think natural is pretty much what its all about. We have a sweet
    dried up river bed thats super sweet. i think im gonna try to go there
    today if jerrick is up to it

    Oh that would be super tough... opposite hand on SIF

    I think that would be TO difficult and we should probably do something
    like the pedals, it will make it harder, but won't kill your riding
    completely.

  7. here's a trials game (actually a modified version of a rock climbing
    game):
    works best with two people, probably 3 or 4 would work, you need lots
    of movable trials obstacles, and enough room to set up a course.
    1: rider A sets up an obstacle
    2: rider B tries to ride/get onto it
    3: rider b sets up a second obstacle, rider A now has to do both
    obstacles.

    this process of making the line longer and riding it continues until
    one rider is unable to complete the course, then the other rider has to
    prove it's possible (e.g. A sets up obstacle, B can't ride it, so A has
    to ride it) if the rider who set it up can ride the course all the way
    through their newest feature, they win!

    sounds good, i should start that with my friend when he learns to ride
    better.
