I found a sweet man-made hill in the next town over from me so I tried
some muni down it with my KH20. There were pretty steep sides to it so
I could only go down two ways. But it looks like it has a lot of
potential for later muni practice. I would have put up some video, but
somehow the memory card that I had captured the video on broke inside.
:(
Luckily, I had switched cards in time to keep a few pictures.
This is the hill:

It was wet, cold and muddy, but a lot of fun. It makes me want to get a
real muni. But.. I really do not feel like spending more money at the
moment.

And... My flipping camera JUST crapped out two minutes ago. No problem
with the batteries or anything. It just stopped and when I turn it on
the lens extends out and it wont go back in.
Whats weird is that it happened just as I was trying to get a good
angle on my KH.:confused:

Maybe it crapped itself because.....
*1) *It thought/felt it wasn't worthy like your KH. :p
*2) *Didn't like your KH
*3) *Didn't like you and your KH. :p

Today I did a seat drag, made the back of my shoe catch on the frame and
flick around the frame/seat/post through my legs to seat push. If you
know what I mean. Like David Wichenberger(?) does. I think I'm the
second person to do it but I don't know, has anyone else seen it
before?

Can you seat drag and seat push easily? If so, what I did is I moved my
feet really close to the pedals before starting, then drop it out the
back, ride a bit then move the back of your foot inwards so it hits the
frame. Then ride normally and spread your legs and let it drop down to
seat push. That's the same problem I had, but you just have to keep
trying.
