Cheers mate, im just learning, thanx for this itl help alot ;)

Good video!

I will, thanks for the upload.

Thanks!! by far the best tutorial, i learned it a couple of days.I think Its easier to do it with more speed, but it also hurts more if you fall. :P

thank you! i learned how to fakie!

This guy is Baked!

dude it took me like 3 hours today to fakie. good vid man

took me some time but i got it thanx dude :)

Thanks, dude! I just hit a 1080 fakie off crash! helped alot.

A few people told me to push off a wall and that worked great. Ive got them down pretty well now

Yes Brake are a very important part in flatland but its so much sicker to ride street

I just love pivital seat there the best and look is cool on it. Can u also brake to give u moment in the direction ur turning?

Cool

i finally got the hang of it. :)

Do more bmx how to vids!

i just learned these about a week ago preferably i would learn them off a wall and when u turn out pedal forwards and pop ur front wheel off the ground like ur doing a wheelie and turn

sweet bike

i like his bike :D

Exactly...

they still do...mostly for little kids bikes or beach cruizers.

I need to learn how to do it smooth like this

@FooMeow something about put pressure on the cranks and it will slow you down

@BattyBitz same ive only been doing it for a year and they are hard but my mate can fakie is amazing at fakies

@HaziqJuraimi1997 The smaller a chain ring is the lighter it can be without sacrificing strength so much. Also it keeps it out of the way for certain tricks.

cool

@FMXrider45 it's pretty much harder doing a fakie without a freewheel because pretty much you'll have a temptation to pedal it backwards but also with out a freewheel wen you go down you can push back on it and wen it brakes just swing it like a fakie

@iiTrick same. it took me for ever to learn. now there is never a time when i can get out of fakie. its like natal now.

its harder than it looks but i hope to nail it this summer

@NickVanderwood thanks a lot ill try it over the week end thanks(Y)

@EpikDuck Pedal as fast as u can backwards so u don't loose momentum the turn ur front tire and pop a wheelir which sud turn u around

He makes it look so damn easy

yo im been riding BMx for about 4 months now and fackies r the hardest. i havnt learned it yet. im closer to a 360 then a fakie.

ROCKSTAR

@ReaP4R101 Okay, I had the same problem at first. But practice your balance, but what helped me was doing a normal footjam and bring the back end up, then your back end will slowly go down, and it will give you a momentum backwards once you land and pedal slowly backwards and turn your bars to which way you like it, and while you are doing that, keep your body to the opposite side in where you're turning your handlebars and keep pressure on cranks and ride forward... Hope this helps ;)

Easier said than done is right, but guys here is a major tip that allowed me to learn this. I can 180 forever now: the way it works for me is, when im faking if my bike falls to the left then i should turn to the left. If it falls to the right then I turn to the right... Also the faster you fakie the easier it is to maintain control. ;)

@MsBmx25 Oh right, I was just wondering if you needed brakes or not, ive only had a bmx since yesterday lol.

n1ce

@emptybox1000 if u have brakes when ur about to turn use ur brakes then turn it around

@Praankcallerz that depends on the person learning....

i got these down in like 3 days, i just need to work on them when i get out of qaurt 180 fakie into another quarter because theres like no spade to fakie

@Cantwait4sundaY thats weird, i learned how to do it right when i started riding but couldn't do all the other things you can do.

@BattyBitz i love my 180 and 360's but i hate the fakies its a pain and i only get them here and there but i've been biking for 1 year now

@TYLERxTHEBEAST On a freecoaster when you fakie you don't Have to pedal backwards, you can let it do all the work :),

This is better than eHow 100000 times

@BattyBitz haha i know how you feel my 180 and 540 are really difficult to land because of rollouts

i swear this is the hardest thing to learn

fakie should take 1 full day if you really pay attention and do each step, it took me about 2 days to learn fakie, i was doing em wrong day 1, watched hti again and got em.

@fratboy94 no-It doesn't even look like either color fits

yeah i learned fakies the opposite way i should of :P so now my 180s look funny i can fakie out the other way but not as clean

Good video! Well done, enough info not like expert village lmao.

@MrHodgieBoi no you just get back wards momentum

tried back-pedalling? or put 1 foot on pedal and use ur other leg to balance???

Lean far back like when you manual to give yourself more balance, Body control is important, and realize everything you're doing backwards is reversed. Right = Left, Left = Right

did a fakie 360 down 9 today.

@TheClutchPro yeah lol

Looks so easy but is so hard.

you'll want to slide it because it looks cleaner and i don't know......sounds cool :D

@tmnationsrocks I doubt it. maybe the same colors, not the same parts.

It takes more than 2 weeks man. I spent a full season on getting good at fakies- you'll get them dialed sooner or later.

I'm left foot forward were should I fakie out on the left or on the the right??

@sk8zero123 Ah right... ive got a back break anyway, i havnt got the actually fakie sorted out yet.

Verde Prism Orange? ( i got the green one ^^ )

nice vid :) i am a 14 year old flatlander and i do the squeaker, i want to get out of the trick with a fakie

@crossbar24 yeah haha i just got them wen i did it i just does it now haha

do most bmx bikes use a cassette hub? and do most people upgrade to a freecoaster hub?

The same way you balance when going forward

would a smaller front sprocket help this because i have a 398 tooth sprocket and it seems i have a hard time to restart pedaling

Basic physics; so long as you are moving you are creating stability. That's how a bicycle works.

this was way bett maner than vitalbmx or anything like that. thanks

i was just about to type that.

idk sounds cool

how do you balance your bike when going backwards

@ThiefsJerkin Okay? Good for you man. I hope you know I wasn't talking about doing little 180s in a parking lot and rolling out. That's not a whole to brag about. I'm talking like right after 180 that stair that you're unsure about or 180ing into something or over something when you have a lot of speed that a false-balance can make you flip and eat shit. You see pros doing it all the time. But if you never do that. That's cool too.

@samcook658 Yeah, you younger kids have been flying up in the ranks. I was referring of like balls out fast 180 a good-sized stair, then just that backwards-instant-heartattack feeling.

im trying to learn this as my first real trick for BMXing and its hard as balls. Considering i have bent both of my rims and its hard to even get going backwards. Anybody got any other tricks i could start out with?

what if we dont have a casette whee? and it dosnt force us to pedal backwards

so are you supposed to put pressure on the cranks while fakieing? i know that sounds dumb but im just wondering. Thanks

@ajwalters12 I'm left foot forward and i 180 to the left....

how do u turn around without putting peddle pressure?

the second before i clicked on this video i placed my left elbow on the table and rested my jaw in my hand.... lol epic

is that a stereo speacker bmx

im doing the slide thing in the dirt and the bike slides out from under any tips

U should have said that to start practicing a fakie, just go to a ramp and slowly let yourself role backwards with your foot on the floor to keep your ballance! When you get the hang of it, try it without th foots on the ground and soon it will go easier and easier!

is it easyer with a light bike?

my first stunt

@BattyBitz im 13 ridin for 4 months and i can do fakies pretty damn easy :D but i guess it doesnt come as easy for some people

@speaker440 as I said, THEY'RE EASY :o

Im ride right foot front, but I "Attempt" 180s to my right and ive been hearing you have to go left if your right foot front. Is there really a difference? Same with fakie, Im learning them by spining out to the right.

i just go enuff rotations until my balance is good

I need to fakie I just started biking and I'm so close to doing a fakie

is he using a fit str 1

i hate the pedling backwards i pedle to fast and then cant keep up but it is hard for me because i am six feet and one inch tall

I got that trick in and hour non stop lol It hurts the shit out of your hands because of the pressure your putting into the handlebar.

how fast should i be going before i turn???

i go up a curve and fall either to the left or right -.-

is better to half cab , you can go really fast and you wont fall

@MsBmx25 Why would you need brakes ?

ive only been bmxing a couple weeks. how long does the fakie usually take to master cuz im not really making much progress. and is that a verde prism??

How long does this take to master? I tried doing it for a whole day and I cant do it for more then 3 foot.
