Great video, I'm 48 and getting into BMX for the first time (coming from street motorcycles), this is my most difficult thing to learn. Nice to find a 12 year old video that helps! Old just like me. :)

Perfect explanation and very easy to follow.....thank you for taking the time to make these vids!!! Sydney,Australia

Old but gold

gracias por tu video, excelente explicación

Show parabens boa dica !!

whats the best bmx bike for getting into racing, i have a dk tracer 20" but im needing a more sturdy platform, because i had to fix my bottom bracket twice this year

Yeah I think thats Okeeheelee BMX I race there...

so when is the best time to start pedaling again after start, 30'+ straight always?

I'm pretty sure when I raced in the 80s that riders would lift their front wheel off the ground as they approached the whoopdy-doo's, drop their bum behind the seat (almost hitting the back wheel) and then drop the front wheel back down onto the far side of the whoopdy. That allowed you to pedal all the way through the whoopdy without 'getting air' or stopping pedalling. Have things changed that much?

hey thats west palm i raced there

okeeheelee track :)

yo ive been to this track

Guys, you haven't upload any more videos, have you?

can i just use my motocross gear?

And this is why BMX died and dirt jumping as a sport, flourished. Clips to manipulate your bike over obstacles, is weak, looks weak, not motocrossy in any way. I am still using my arms at 57 and the pros cant figure out how I do it. Much like the way I cant figure out how tip toeing over obstacles is bmx. Great info though. Just not liking the new tracks as much as I thought I would. Rolling everything is lame. BTW, we have been pumping skateparks since the 70s. Half the track should not be a skatepark.
