They're all very achievable for you Fuzzy.

What size is the Oxford spine?  Steep?  If you can get yourself over the new Creation spine, or the charlton volcano thats a good step.

Out of your list, I'd say that manuals and bunnyhops are going to take the bulk of your time.

I'd say that one good session on a decent miniramp would have you grinding  (with the right guidance), and one good session at Rom we'd have you airing a hip somewhere.  Airing undervert stuff like miniramps is very closely connected with bunnyhops, so best stick to first things first on that one   ;)

Might be able to kill two birds with one stone at Rom.  Air some concrete hips then go grinding the indoor miniramp. That's a nice, big, fast ramp. Grind there and you'll grind anywhere   :)


Thanks for the advice dude The spine at creation looks steeper than Oxford and Taller I think.How about a bit of online assement of my technique do I need to air the Creation spine ?
How does this compare to Charlton I have only been there once before I could even ride Oxford   :daumenhoch:

No fooking chance  :LolLolLolLol:
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
 Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
 Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
 Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'

My goal for 2008 is to make the final at the Brits and place top 5 :daumenhoch:  baby will only be 6-8 weeks old by then so may not be realistic but hey, a goal is a goal :)

Fuzzy, you're doing that beautifully smooth.  You are turning the wrong way - but right now smoothness is probably more important.

You ideally want to ride up the spine and add a little opposite way turn. As you go over, that little tweak will set you up for a regular way drop in. If you get me. That technique will see you over any spine.

Next time you're at Epic, take a deep breath and have a crack at their new spine.  Do it early in the session, but only once you've got a good sweat on. I'd say it is steeper and possible a tad higher than the one in your vid. I can't be sure exactly. But you look ready for it.

As for Charlton, you'll sail over the volcano there now, no worries. The spine I will leave to your own judgement on the day. It's bigger, but not neccessarily any more difficult.  Most first time people just say 'scary' when asked   :)

Dont have any resoloutions, but do have some goals for this year

Do a 2 foot air on a quarter and air the performance at rOm
Go over a Spine, looking forward to Skaterham on the 19th.
Peg stall anything
Tailtaps

Some not so obtainable, Jump a car, anyone got a Suzuki Cappacino I can borrow
And jump over some water like a stream, Have got a spot in mind in Ilford in Southpark; Not a big jump only about 6-8 feet but something I always wanted to do :uglystupid2: :idiot2:

What goals have you set yourself for this year???





Have only just seen this post - The top goal you should have put Gary is to finish decorating the living room and hallway which you promised to have done by Christmas of 2005   :tickedoff:

Had a closer look at the water jump yesterday and it's more like 13 feet :10_2_12:  wife said I should go back in the summer after all the DIY is done and she would film it to send to  youv'e been framed when I crash :10_2_12:

Damnations........  My plan is foiled!!!

I'm assuming you're not intending on just hucking over this river?  Hence the need for a ramp   :P  At least if I knock it up it's not going to collapse under you in a proper Y.B.F. moment   ;)

Mine is to really get back into riding as much as possiable this year, on both the track in the OSS and freestyling.

I've been thinking about doing more with my  weekends for a few years and keep on thinking that really need a hobbie/interest to give myself stuff to do, other than just meeting my mates in my local. 

Always had so much love for Bmx'ing and love that RAD is a like minded community of Peter Pans, who also share the passion for it, really want do alot of riding it this year and hopefully meet a few decent likeminded souls.

Finally I'd like to put an end to poverty, but I'll put that right next year after I've finished BMXing  ;D ;D ;D ;D.

Second finally I'd like to work how to add picture and signtures to all my postinging in RAD, I feel naked at the moment!!!!

Long time since I started this, and managed to knock another one off the list today. PEG STALLS, great session at rOm for me today, done 4 back to back peg stalls on the outdoor mini and also managed a couple on the 1/4. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Also started to get some air out of the 1/4 not a lot but it's a start. And although it's not on my list pulled off some tyre taps on the mini  :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
Anyone else ticked anything of there list.
