I need some help on BMX riding. (Vert) How do you get air on quater pipes and half pipes like pros do, I don't mean like 10 feet of air but how do you get air and land back on the quater pipe?
Thanks

I cant really explain it, you just gotta do it. Ride up to it maintaining a good speed and you'll figure out the rest when you leave the quarter pipe mini ramp w.e your riding on.

a good way to learn is to carve right before you air out. so you arent trying to spin a full 180 in the air, this way you can pull up harder without having to worry about catching your back tire. then just work your way up, that how i learned.

Thanks, I'll have to try that. It was my first day at a skatepark yesterday and i could get footplants on the half pipe but not to much else.

i ride paralel to the coping...and then just pull the front up like you were going to manual...and ride down into it...just keep your feet level or close to level so your pedals dont hit the coping....and uh....while your at it......run over some skaters!!...j/k

have fun and dont get hurt thats what its all about is fun!
