Has anybody got a copy of the Level X stunt tutorial vids? I'vm after Vol.3 Stoppies.

If not I'll stop being tight and buy it online.

I want to try their lessons on changing direction while in a rolling stoppie. I can do it on a BMX and MTB easy enough but the 675 is a whole new challenge.

Mastered - no wait, strike that last, I'm dreaming if I believe that - make that "got the hang of" Wheelies (atleast I'm happy with where they are at anyways - apart from the real slow ones which I still havent sorted yet), so want to improve the other end if I can or die trying. The other reason is, I'm never going to get any better at the slow wheelies, ever... So I'm ok with sucking at them

Before Kevmo or anyone else blazes in here with
a. Stunting is gay - [only a true backdoor bandit would really know that...]
b. your not a stunter - [no I'm not, I just like scaring the shit out of myself and riding bikes]
c. stoppies are gay - [see a.]
d. everyone but them are gay - [...yeah... the worlds gotta have hatersI guess]
I dont care... what the hell else am I to do in Palmy other than drink and puke on CCTV in the square??

Not any longer than about 25m and no conscious steering control yet. I seem to be yawing the back end to the right when its up high too. Think its a through back from FMX days when all my whips were to one side only. I notice I crossup the standups in the same direction from time to time and my right leg gets bruised from the tank on standups more than the left, like its countering something.

The other half has just bought herself an 08 Black R6 so I should be able to beg to be allowed to get us a dropped Street Triple to repair and set up as a caged stuntbike to share between us. Hopefully the wider bars will help me a little and she doesnt outshine me either!
