Circles

[Danger_Dave]

what works for you? i can only do them slow and wide. i dont dip the bike very much. i cant figure out how. i maintain 90% weight on my left foot keep it nice and steady and try to dip the bike but it just dont work. i've tried varying tire pressure, pushing on the bars, using my hip, :homer

[MikeM]

keep all your weight on your left foot
its easier to get it to dip if you're behind bp slowing down a little, but that will only help for the first half of a circle

what tire pressure u running? i am just learning them and i couldnt dip them at all to the left till i put a new tire on and the first time out after that i was dipping it in, the tire gets messed up and you really cant tell by looking at it.

I practiced O's for months and never even got a 1/4 turn(never wrecked), my buddies keep saying do this or do that and nothing worked. then one day I went out by myself said fuck it Im going to wreck today. I pobably wrecked 10 times,but by the end of the day I was hittin 2 cosistantly. So my best tip would be to just commit,dont worry about turning the bars or weighting your left leg or whatever advise people gave you

get the bike BEHIND BP to dip in!!

[old man roger]

all good advise especially the part about commiting...

and twenty pounds should keep the rim from cutting in to the side of your tire

is it easier learn first ride with no gas hand and the next level the circles?

yes, you have to have idle on lock or you'll be stalling way to much

[da Liks]

yup, and learning coasters too!!!
