manuel balance (on a bike)

[HotDog]

ok, i got the up and down part down. but how the hell do u balance yourself when u start goign to teh side and your bike goes to the other side.

[BMXMASTER1991]

if your doing a manual you have to keep of moving ya body.

if ya bike goes back lean ya body forward and if the bike goes forward you have to lean back

that should help lol if ya get wot iv just said above

Your leaning to the side?!? OK :rolleyes: but jus lean the oppisite way the bike is goin and youll get it. I can only do manuals while pedling I can't do 'em without pedlein. Weird, I know. I hope this helps!(or you can understand)

i know that i am bringing ba a dead thread but ^^^ if you pedal its a catwalk/wheelwalk, this makes it easier [for some ppl] because when your fallin forward you can pedal faster and the bike goes up, like a dirtbike catwalk, if you front starts going down you give it some gas and the acceleration makes it go up

i just started biking literally yesterday, i bought a fit team for mad cheap...i have the bike,...now i need the chops...whats the best way to learn to manual...

[SkaterBrett]

Its all about practice. You have to start out manualing like 5 feet. Then you work your way up to 10 ect ect. Try that and see if it works.

ok, whats the technique to do it...i know to pull up, and thats abou it,,,how do i shift my weight in order to keep it up, but i dont know how to approach it

lol, like what I read in a book is that you pull back and bend your knees, then you kinda "hump" the air if you feel like your losing balance.

[Street-VS-Snow]

what i do to keep balance on my bike is if i feel myself drifting to the side i turn the handle bars the opposite way and pull up more on my bars and push down more on my feet
