    36 and picking up BMX. I skateboard back in my younger days and always wanted to. My kids are starting to ride so this gives me an opportunity to mess around.

    the one thing i regret not doing is learning tricks on a cassette hub. i feel that building a foundation of skills on a cassette is more beneficial that jumping right into freecoaster hubs. fakies are harder on a cassette but it in turn teaches you more bike control and muscle/brain memory.

      Yea I could agree with that. I didn't start riding a free coaster until a lot later in my riding career.

    Pumping is for some reason one of the hardest things for me, I think I'm getting the hang of it slowly but it's taking frustratingly long, I loved this explanation, will apply it the next time I ride.

    This video helped me fix my fakies 180’s and manuals better than any other video instant results and I’ve scoured forums, and RUclips for any piece of advice I could get, and none of them had results as quick as this video. Did I just played the video in my pocket and did 10:19 what he said to do in real time it’s a lot easier that way. Plus you won’t have to remember. Not only that he does a good job emphasizing key points. Thank you so much man.

    I just found a gt slammer bmx bike near a dumpster today . I brought it to the shop to get a new chain put on it, tighten the crank, and possibly remove the old brakes and go brake less or replace the brakes! Do you recommend beginner bmxers to ride with breaks? Awesome video btw, me personally I am a fixed gear and road bike dude but I’ve always wanted to learn how to bmx so that’s what brought me here !
