If you are using two hands - don't Ride faster and try to not put as much pressure down on the crank. -- Any Terrain 2nd Place*)---SuperWrap-'O,* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Any Terrain's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/16258 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/61016 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

That was my problem for a while. Solve the problem by using momentum for the flip at first. Committing goes without saying though. You are either pulling up on the saddle too hard to flip, or you are using only weight to flip the cranks. You need an even combination of the two. Get a few normal speeded revs in, and don't slow down before the flip. Just push a little bit, pull up slightly to get the height, and let the momentum do the rest. Thats all the advice I can cram into one post. -- beeper )-90'-UNISPIN-O ')-Crankflip-'O,' (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZgdzTx7qEg) 'SixSixOne' (SixSixOne.com) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ beeper's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/15159 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/61016 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Try to catch your flips. Catch it with your back foot before hitting the ground. -- Emile.m Team UDC Canada visit www.municycle.ca 2nd *)---TreFlip-'O, M'y galler' (http://tinyurl.com/23w828)y (hum, 07/08 winter footage only) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Emile.m's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/16667 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/61016 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |
