yeah steet is deffinatly my favorite part of riding. there is so much different stuff you can do. park is ok, but its not really wat im into. dirt is pretty fun to if the jumps are big enough.
this is a fun jump we built at my friends house.

sweet vid,im not into street riding to much anymore,noone else is and im not going to go by myself,although i do go once in a blue moon,ahh im so rusty i tried doing a lil 90 off a jump chit i didnt even get it all the way,manuling is one of the coolest looking tricks i think to get on film,and if you throw some tricks in there thats awesome,i see you hold your bars the same way i do,right to were it about bends,that is why i have mine cut off about 3 and a half inches on each side.

Here is my macneil

mcniels are verry nice bikes. manuals are probably my favorite trick. im going to learn 180's out of em before winter. i also plan on doin a handrail before winter also. hopefully thatll go over well, but if not we will have a funny bail :macho

yeah, finding the ballancing point is the hardest part. its easier if you have brakes cause you can feather them to help you balance. you gotta move your body alot, foreward and back. and you gotta pull the bike up and down. its sounds hard but once you find the balancing point its all downhill from there.

the main thing to do with manual to 180s is set up the second you get into the manual. i stay pretty tucked in during the manual and than as soon as it feels comfortable spring out and turn your head and whip as hard as you can. i still dont have them dialed on flat ground but i learned them by manualing the flat on little funboxs like the one at your park and doing the 180 into the downslope/landing

that how i do them now, but the guys at the skatepark jus lean back and the stay ballanced, without having to move forward and back?

well if you can find the exact ballancing point of your bike, then i guess you wouldnt have to move at all. but im pretty sure thats neerly impossible. its kinda like balancing on one foot, if you lean to much one way you have to counterballnce by trying to lean the other way to even it out. just practice it, practice makes perfect.:)
