Thanks, yeah I didn't get my legs back over the first 3 or 4 times I tried it....just pretty much land on the seat side saddle. The one that sorta hurt is when I gave it too much gas and the quad wheelied out from under me and I fell off the back.

Thanks, that's the thing, I can't even come close to doing one not on a wheelie. I wasn't even going to bother trying, but I suprisingly did it. Let me say that it was honestly a lot harder for me than I thought it would be. I'm not very good at the "acrobatics" though so it may be easier for some of you guys.

hessianmx111, I start out sitting but when in the wheelie I stand up and then do it.

I was suprised at how hard it was....Lets just say I looked like and idiot the first 4 or 5 times I tried....doh :o

[rdmex]

I didn't have much room so I was just in 1st. Only tip I can give is to be careful that you have the bars straight when you land or you'll go for a ride. I jumped once and turned the bars and when it landed I almost went flying.

thats a really good point, it seems like when i would jump the bars would turn with my body. this is gonna be very interesting.

Yup, that's what happens...Also when you land be ready to hit the brake cause that sucker comes up FAST.

We hope to have a full length retail video out this year, but if not, then next year. Quality first.

If you don't wanna get hurt you can do these, doesn't feel as bad when you mess up...

[rdmex]

Looks like your axle is bent from that pic.

Sick wheelies, though.

Hey your right....I don't think it is though....I'll have to double check. Thanks for pointing that out.

Hey guys, is it easier to pull tricks in the air??? Well I mean besides the fact that you are in the air and if you screw up it's really gonna hurt of course.

I've never attempted any in air stuff....one reason being I don't have a jump for it....the other reason I will keep to myself ;) .

-Josh

Dude that pic is sweet!. I would have to say they are easier to do in the air.

[Nausty]

lol, I don't know how you can do that no foot can wheelie. I can barely do a stand up wheelie. I wounder if its just mental for me or if its just my size(6'2") and position and height of the handle bars but I can't stand doing regular wheelies or stand up wheelies I feel Like I have to lean way back and hold on with my hands. Like I can't stand strait up you know? Is that the way it is with you jlanphear?

Anyways, heres a pic of me from a few hours ago. Nothing special. Do you know if anyone can do a wheelie like this without starting out in this position? I've tryed it a few times but I always go up onto the wheelie bar or I don't time it right.

[JLanphear]

It probably helps on "some" tricks that I'm not very tall. I'm only like 5'9". On others I wish I was a little bit taller so I guess it balances out.

I can do regular wheelies just fine...sitting down, or standing up, or standing on the seat, but that might be where it is an advantage to be a little shorter...I can't say because I've never been taller than I am right now...lol :D .

As for the superman/apehanger wheelie....I've actually only done a couple of them, but yes, I start off sitting on the seat normally, and then I stand up and put my knees on the seat and then slide off of the back....I think that is one of those tricks where being a little taller helps out, because I don't think I could start off in that position...maybe, but I've never tried.

It's deffinatly different for everybody though.

-Josh

[Nausty]

i've never tryed a ape hanger (on purpose) but when you do it would you say its easy for the wheelie bar to catch on something or bend. What would you say is the best surface to do it on? (concrete, packed dirt, grass, ect.)

Well probably a paved surface. Grass would deffinatly be the easiest on you and your grab bar, but when your grab bar hits it's going to dig. Packed dirt would be really messy, but would probably work.

If you plan on doing anything where 12's are involved I'd put a bead of weld along where your grab bar hits. 12'ing on pavement will wear through your grab bar really fast. I rarely touch my bar on pavement and it was already just about warn through.

Oh, is that what that flat spot is?

I have tried to recruit some friends to help me but they want no part in it....Gonna happen though...lol

[Nausty]

redrizza, just thought i'd say your quad and gear looks awsome. I like it, real origional. You notice we both have no graphics on our quads and we both ride with the same type pants and every time I go out to ride wheelies I put on a black shirt.

He's got graphics now....Some nice CVBz flames ones :D . I haven't seen them on the quad yet though.

Thanks man. Yeah, I have the matching freestyle jersey, but I wasn't wearing it that day. It was like 20 degrees that day while we are filming. That's why I have purple gloves on... lol Cause there the thinnest winter gloves I had. I think I have about 8 layers on under that jersey too. I don't really like lots of stickers, unless the company does something for me too. If I'm payin retail for things, they aren't getting there sticker on my bike :p

Yeah, Josh, I put the cvb flame logo on my tank. Rode yesterday in the rain, my bike is covered in mud right now and they are still there. The true test will be the pressure washer tonight.......

LOL, I hope you have an extra set cause my money is on them coming off unless your very careful. The pointy ends of those flames are a pain to stay stuck.

What's that? You mean like riding on the two side wheels? yeah, about the only thing we have done like that is a one wheeled wheelie and maybe riding with one hand or whatever.

-Josh

[jwisniew]

yea what we do here is jump off while doin a 2wheel stand (ridin on the side) and run along side it and then hop back on wit out droppin it. i love 1 wheeled wheelies but i never ride them far before the other wheel comes down.

[EXracer8604]

im tryin my best to get it down :D im thinkin ima have it down tommorow

[JLanphear]

Cool...now ya just gotta get the front wheels up and your set. Here is another more recent shot
