Collin's big bmx page of cool stuff
-(3/28/02) 360!!!!
Today i went to she the skatezoo. i was just goint to focus on the halfpipe, and mini spine, but i went out side. There were 6 bikes there and all of them were outside. In the box everone was trying 180's, i went down the roll in, and jerked the bike, i spotted the landing and rode away. I fell alot but o well. atleast i did it.
Spring break.
-3/27/02 i just fineshed up my spring work on my trails- my frends and i have had some trails for 2 years, and they keep getting bigger! The new jump has an 8 foot gap, and is aprox. 3 feet tall the old one is now on the end of the berm, and is about 6 inchs taller (its 3 1/2 feet for all of u who dont no me)
If u have any ramp plans u can give me e-mail them to me at Fisher0124@msn.com...
THIS WEBSITE IS FOR ALL TYPES OF RIDERS.
(last updated 3/28/02) ~HOW TO'S~
Bunny hop- pull up on ur bars like a wheely, but when u get it as hi as u can pop up ur back tire, this should get u airborne. Practice this...u will need to do any other trick on this page.
360- wHEN U COME OFF THE RAMP TWEAK YOUR BIKE AROUND, WHEN U HAVE SPUN 180, TURN YOUR UPPER BODY. SPOT UR LANDING AND RIDE
Barspin- Find a jump. If u can get 2 feet high on it u can try this trick. When u takeoff the lip, spin the bars whatever way feels comfertable. catch it with the opposite hand(unless u only have one hand..But if u do...try skateboarding.)
one footer- This is the first trick i learned. In the aid, or of a curb-cut, take one foot of its peddel. extend it as u feel comfertable. make shur u can get it back before u land or else u will never have kids.
One hander- Same as one footer but with ur hand...
no footer- this time take both feet off and try to do the splits. make shur ur peddels dont move. then pull ur feet back in. If u fall....well its self explanitory.
no handers- i wish i could do theese. but heres what u do. same as a no footer just make shur ur bars stay stright.
~BUILDING DIRT JUMPS~
First u want a few tools:
1)-2 Shovels- one flat head- one spade
2)-Rake- a good one at that..if u r building new trails
3)-Raido- Make shur it can pick up ur favorite station
4)- Laundry deturgent- tio get the dirt out of ur cloths
5)- Dirt(duh!)
6)- Wheelbarrow
The first thing u wanna do is make a huge mound of dirt- it will ned to be about a foot or so bigger than u want the jump. U mite want to shape it perodicly as so it is easyer to put dirt on top. Once u have the lip shaped, u can hit it a few times. try not to break ur wrist. Where u land build a mound of dirt a bit smaller than ur first jump. Shap it with a 45 degree angle.
BE CAREFULL-IT IS NOT MY FAULT IF U BREAK UR LEG DON'T
BUILD IN UR NEIGHBORS BACK YARD WITHOUT
ASKING THEM!
