BMX How To: Manual

Image
Steps How to Manual * 1 Start pedaling to get to a moderately fast speed. Stand up on the bike and lean slightly over the handlebars with your elbows slightly bent. * 2 Pull up and back on the handlebars as you allow your hips to drop. Keep your upper body as close to straight up as possible in order to maintain balance as you enter into the manual. Try to get your front wheel between 6 inches and one foot off the ground. * 3 Hop up onto the object by squeezing your legs together against the bike and doing a small jump. Keep your weight far enough back on the bike to keep yourself in the manual. Look straight ahead at the end of the object you're trying to bunny hop-manual onto. * 4 Land on the back wheel and then either continue to manual or allow the front wheel to come back down so you can continue to pedal. So try it now!
