bmx practice
« on: April 17, 2008, 07:49 PM »
thought i would nip round to the local park were they have a little scate park whilst it was sunny and empty, after 15 mins i was feelin dizzey sweating like mad and out of breath, we have 4 hours at creation, how the fook am i going to manage that. i managed to jump over the small ramp they have, thats a first since 1984, and go part way up the half pipe and almost 180, i realy want to do a 360 roll out as i think they are so cool, but i do not have the confidence to flick into it at speed,and if you go too slow it becomes impossible. :idiot2:

 besides all this, i get soon get bored with the look of my bikes, what colour do you reakon i should paint my 2007 baby blue quad, the forks and bars are already baby blue, it has black and silver components, or leave alone :daumenhoch:

I will give you an old school fool skatepark tip. Just sit on your bike (fully padded up just in case) and chat to the person who is sat next to you on there bike. I can guarantee you will spend 95% of your time at creation doing this and it isnt tiring in the slightest. ;)

i was sooo determined to do a 540 kickturn, that after about 5 attempts i thought i was going to sick, wheel kept dropping down near 360 mark, might try again today if weather ok, i know what you mean about colour, just i soon get bored, i spray cars by trade and have access to every colour available :daumenhoch:
