Mossy: I can move the bars round and can do 1 footers, but for the stuff where you move the whole bike eg. whips n stuff, the bike wont budge while im in the air. whenver i do 1 handers or try no handers i always slip forward off the peddles and we all know what that means . . .
i just cant get the bike to go where i want it to go while im in the air which p*sses me off cause i keep tryin and tryin.
redbull_fmx: i dunno, i should ask those older boys why they always take my lunch money...but then they would probably just take my lunch money. . .

so your having trouble whipping the bike around and making it do what u want it to do?
all i can say is use your head, if you want to do a 360, turn your head to the side and your bike will follow.
When you do whips and such, use your legs to kick the bike out. Or you can do what i do, lean the bike over a little to the side, and then pull back on the bars so the back end moves up and out a little. Just practice

as foe the one handers and no handers, grab your seat with your knees when you do it

i just want to add to to what gazza said if you cant pinch the seat maybe move your seat up, but with one handers you should be able to hold the front end up wit you other hand and not need to hold the seat. but if your like me and you cant get a good grip on the seat with your knees you could go for a tuck no hander their more stylish. to do a tuck no hander just toss your bars into your lap and push your knees into your stomach with the bars between them, while all that is happin after you threw the bars into your lap you should put your hands up and then all you got to do is just pull your knees out of your stomach and as the front end falls just grap the bars with your hands and adjust the way you want to land. if you really wana learn buy a movie like "Props How To" or somthing simaliar, that helped me allot i went from my best trick being a crapy lookin 180 to a stylish 360 one hander in like 2 weeks cause that movie

thats how i started just put your head over your shoulder that will speed you up allot
i could barley do 180s then i learned to turn my head i got the 360, just make sur to keep your front tire up cause when i was learnin i didnt and got it caught on the landin ramp and ended up beefin it bad
:cool:

depends on the jump if ur a beginner id try stuff of table tops and start with whips and kickouts and slowly move up we have this really steep one and i try new stuff on that .the key to doing whips is to be relaxed in the air and use ur legs kick out and lean the bars to a side. Doing 360s is easy just follow evry ones advice put head over shoulders and lean'to land both weels on the down ramp when in 180 position lean forwards

To do a 360, go off the jump at a little anlge on what way u are goin to spin, and all i can say is TURN UR HEAD, i just learnt 270's cant 360 but still, go off the jump doni a so called "FLICK OUT" AND KEEP ur head turnd and u will go further then just a lil flik out

yep, as these fellers are sayin, just keep lookin over ya shoulder, and just keep lookin until ya see the landing....and I started all of my trick either into the lake, or out of a bowl...like flips, I pulled em into water, then went to the local bowl, put materess down, pulled em there, hit a tabletop, then a double...
just take ya time, with progressing...these's no rush...
