I'm not a stunt person,I'm one of those old farts who reckon you've got good control with 2 wheels on the ground - but if the front wheel comes up or I step it out then that's just part of the riding experiance....I don't do it on purpose,except I'm kinda pushing it when it happens.Off road it's part of what you do,no stunting - it's how you ride.
Nearly all your stunts are derived from trials riding,you can't ride a trials bike unless you can master these basic skills - so I thought you might like to look at this demo by Tommy Ahvala,the bike is just an extension of his mind and body.It's just a demo,but all the things he's doing are done in top level trials,if you haven't got this sort of mastery over your bike then you are going nowhere.http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=25140322355139958&q=trials Sorry dial up users,it's 15 mins of video.
