I feel like almost every trick on a bmx bike you have to learn how to bail from it first before you can actually land it 👌🏼

I've learned foot jam tail whip, manual, rail grind and bunny hop from Alfredo. Now if I could only ride with him in person, I'd be unstoppable

“One full crank. Maybe one and a half” *Laughs in 28/9*

This is so crazy. I met you and your friend over a decade ago at the los cerritos 4 block. You asked if you could post me on your twitter because I was a kid and smoked lol.

Whenever I do hop manuals I’m learning that you have to kindof throw you bike foward a bit it helps you land automatically with your body position fully extended back if you throw the bike foward your pretty much already in position without to much effort

I find it's helping me trying to manual on my pegs, not only is it way easier to bail, I been getting a feel for balance. I know it's a completely different thing, but I tried over and over and over and over alternating between my pegs and the pedals. I still need to practice bailing on the pedals but standing on the pegs helps me get more comfortable balancing with the wheel up.

I'm decent at manuels lol. I find that the shoes I wear matter a lot. When have on cupsole shoes I have more balance when you pump & lock in your legs. Few days ago started practicing endo to fakie manuals, it's a lot harder but pretty much the same as regular manuals. I really want nose mannys but got smoked a few times learning how to bail

Thank you Alfredo🔥🖤🔥🤟🏼

I love it when you guys go back to the Essentials of BMX keep on going great advice help us a lot for us beginners I’m very curious and How to ice pick ?

so interesting! you do a great job explaining

Yo Fredo bro You’re appreciated man you got me back on a bike after about 7 years your Strava rides inspired me to do my first ever 23 mile ride today

This helped me Soo much bro thankyou!.🙂 I'm getting much better now

Dis guy said Messi 😂😂😂😂didn’t even recognize till I heard his voice 😂😂

Thanks alfredo 💪💪💪🔥🔥🔥

ive never been to good at manuals myself but im going to use this video to get better \m/

always watching here sir ....🙌🙌😁

nice alf helps a lot

Thanks it's helpful

I like manuals, with the cassette or free coaster. I have been doing them for more than ten years now, I also like pedal kicking.

ayyyyyy new vidd

Hey Alfredo, I'm sure you probably already know, but just in case anybody else is wondering, all those odd little specks on the video are caused by dust particles finding their way onto the camera's sensor. This usually happens when swapping out lenses. It's easily solved by using compressed air to gently blast the dust off. You can buy all sorts of fancy pants camera cleaning kit like alcohol wipes, soft brushes, and squeezy air blower things but they're expensive and unnecessary when a turkey baster or small syringe will do the trick of pushing enough air to clear the dust. (DO NOT blow onto the sensor with your mouth, the water vapour in your breath will cause untold trouble) There will be an option somewhere in your camera's menu that will say something like "clean sensor manually" or something to that effect.

Bro, Thank You! I'm 5yrs into manuals & I'm lucky if I have A 1/2 court in me, I'm obsessed with them! I just figured out within the last week or two that your posture is so important and you address things in this one that nobody has ever addressed things that I have learned but I had to figure them out over these past five years great video as always I'm going to get at it and I let you know how I do thank you

Like your videos bro❤🙏

Nice

Thanks Alf I suck at manuals and I agree brake squad Baby!

Me and manuals have a love hate relationship. Somedays they come easy and other days we do absolute battle.

I have a bad back which equals a weak core. I struggle with manuals. The dexterity part is a struggle. But I was to get them locked in. Also being 47 doesn't help matters. Thanks for the info.

Messi Do a old kool bike comparison like a Performer vs you’re bike, try doing the same tricks on both bike and see what bike is better.

Never got these. Think it’s time to start tryin.

I like brakes.👍

Alfredo😃This is a great bmx video! You will get better,you just earned a new sub !

Does handle bars play a part in this? I have my handle bars forward a bit on my 21in TT subrosa

Skull Vs Concrete and Concrete wins everytime. Guys and Gals wear a Helmet. I looped out about 2 weeks ago and for 3 days had a headache and couldn't even focus eyes. You can't plaster your Brain for a few weeks like an arm or leg. Im sorry if I sound like someone sucking the fun out of bmx. I promise you a Helmet is the best investment youll make after a Bike. Peace Out.

What tires are those? Thanks!

Think you should tell older riders to wear helmets too !! Bitch cranking - think i've seen trials riders doing it, but they are going up n down really BIG stuff and their lives kinda would depend on it lol. I need to keep practicing manuals, and probably should get a half link out of my chain to slam the rear a bit more. Struggling with really long TT and CS length bike.

❤

My knees cant handle the run down anymore, they just buckle when i loop out

you say keep your arms slightly bent but you have your arms straight elbows fully extended

First 🏆🇺🇲

First Gang!!

I can never pulled up evenly lol I always pull my bars right hand first idk why so I just instantly fall to the side

Hey Alfredo can u do a half cab how to or a 360 how to.

The first time I tried a manual I looked outand slammed my head on the ground exactly like you said. I thank God I was wearing a helmet. I also recommend an ass pad. Wear a helmet guys.

aye my local plaza park

Ok so step 1 own a bike Me: ok step 1 failed

The seat will feel like it rips your ballbag open if you dont clear it though 😂

Barca

15 people said first but they all came at different times

how long did it take to master manuals and does pegs make manuals easier

Hi

I think manuals are easier the taller you are. You don’t have to lift the front wheel up as high. I’m only 5’6 and I need to lift my tire up to about 10 o’clock in order to maintain balance.

Como se dice “brochachi” en ingles

Loved the vid but you neeeeed to clean your lens!

Can we just recognise the infinite window on the car on the right

I keep falling to the side. I don’t know why. Help

Hola Messi ! lol

How often do you break a frame? Because it seems like you change your frame often.

A comment

I suck @ manuals 😢

For some reason going low and too far back with my butt ruins my manuals, for me staying just behind the seat seems more effective. Weird trick, everyone's different.

Your bike is incomplete without brakes.

I think my weight is making it a little harder. The geometry is so much different than the bikes we rode 20 years ago, it’s stupid easy to just roll straight out on my ass.

It bothers me that I suck at manuals.

I'm 6'3 and 195 lbs. Manuals are not for me I've been trying these for years. I can 1 foot manual on the pegs but that's about it

Manual is hard when the tire is new? Agree or disagree?
