@KEEPitSTUPID, ug well, it's meant for really tight switchbacks that are so tight, your unable to get around without putting a foot down. This one's that I'm on here are not tight, I just used them for the example. If nothing else, new riders will get more control over their bikes with a partial 'track stand'.
@HealthyNactive i run a specialized fsr xc with as much sram as i could fit onto it and ive just bought some new formula brakes aswell. just curious as to what it is you're riding, ive watched all your vids but never got a good look really.
@DoNotClickUFreak, I checked out the fsr xc a few years ago at a lbs named trail head cycles here in SJ, CA. Really nice overall mtb, solid. Look at the SC blur xc bike...
@HealthyNactive yeah its a pretty good bike. i got an amazing deal for it on eBay. came with £600 of upgrades and got it from a guy who one day decided to mountain bike and he'd never used it! the tyres still had the little rubber nipples on them from the factory! got it for about 25% of the new price. i do like the santa cruz bikes, i really want a nomad frame but i just cant afford it lol. funny what pops up on ebay though
yea i used to play everyweekend but it got very expensive, ive recently sold all my gear so i can spend it more onto mtb, its awsome because i have a trail about 5 mile ride from my house so its a good warmup getting there so im pumped by the time i reach the trail.. im hooked!
This is joke, right?

Awesome dude, since I'm new to mountain biking, I always have to put a footdown to turn in a switchback, but I'm definitely going to try this!

Is it possible to do it on a flat peddle? I tried it on a flat terrain and crashed. I injured my ankle too.

@mechael, yes, you just need to practice a little. Lean forward and put 80% of your weight on the front tire...

@GrappyFlappy......maybe, they should not practice on the trail! You can see that a mistake may cause some injuries where I'm at...
