I landed backwards crankflips......



....on my brothers bike. Amazingly easy especialy seeing as I
cant backflip a uni. I can almost do them on the back wheel now but not
quite. I can do no footers on the back wheel but its alot harder
flipping up there.

I like to think Im getting pretty good on a bike, I still much prefer
riding a uni though.

Have you tried doing fakieflips instead of backflips? It's way easier.
Not that I can fakieflip or crankflip but I can kick the cranks pretty
fast on a fakieflip and can barely get them to turn backwards on a
backflip.

And my brag is I can do varials pretty cleanly now, almost a 180 turn.
And I can go from stand up 1 foot wheel walk to riding.

dude, I said i almost did a 30, but landed wrong, i got close to a 34.
How the hell is the bragging. I can do a 25 pretty simple, i'll get the
**** on vid sooner or later.

and btw, even how meaningless it sounds, all those excuses had actually
happened. There was a fricken bee near my set, i have that on video lol.
My camera did freeze, but i reset it, and its fine now. My computer does
suck, i'm running vista, but we got DSL now so my internet speed is
awesome. And i did slightly sprain my ankle. I tripped, and now it
hurts to walk right lol.

Yeah, any other questions?


you f*cking pestering *****

Treyflips. :)
It took me two hours to land the first one.
The next 4 took me less then 10minutes.

The difference to 3Spins feels awesome, but I can't see the flip...
