there was a car park in h/pool that was perfect for roolbacks, in the very early 80s i remember three guys rolling back one on a torker one on a race inc and one on a goose, man i thought they where so fookin cool, it was the one trick i just had to learn, unfortunately its the only trick i learned :LolLolLolLol:

I reckon Kick turns on the rear peg is also quite an easy one if you're gettin back into BMX.

And that's my full repetoire, rollbacks and kickturns...oh and diddy endos :crazy2:

I can just about manage an endo, providing you don't want me to roll out afterwards. I'm having problems judging when to let go of the front brake.  :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol:

In about 1982 or early '83 most people at Golden Gate Park would just run backwards sitting on the seat then jump to the pedals.  I remember thinking "I'm going to ride into that trick."

One thing I'd say is take it at the right speed - not too slow and not too fast.  Maybe front wheel halfway up an 8' quarter or something.  Then keep it a little loose.  Can't tell you about doing anything with the moving cranks as I've always used a coaster.  Seems like sitting down would be easier assuming you've got an old school setup where you can actually sit on the seat without your knees hitting you in the face!

Don't feel bad though.  I've forgotten which direction I used to do a few tricks!

Happy days    :daumenhoch:

Watch out when you re-learn 180 bunnyhops, these newschool bikes behave very differently...  I used to be able to do them at basically full speed but on a modern bike I'm struggling with em at jogging speed   :-[ :'(
