argh, i practiced on a friends bike, and then eventually got a new one recently. I got the bunny hop down, and can grind, and do a couple of other little things, so I guess i got it.

definitly worth the effort, but ive hit a few roadblocks recently (hypothetically…)
I just got a new bmx bike last year, as a bday gift (a haro nyquist r3). Well…that was stolen from school a couple of weeks ago, so I had to revert back to my old and beaten up redline 5spot.
And…the back wheel of that almost fell off while i was just riding to school last week, resulting in me falling over the handle bars in front of like a bujillion peeps. Which was embarrassing. But, that wasnt the bad part. After carrying my bike the rest of the way to school, which was embarrassing, I kicked and twisted the wheel back in place. But, the brakes and the chain and pedals had gotten screwed up, so everything works slower than it should, and if I try to stand up and pedal the chain snaps. It already happened twice. So…I am bikeless.
But, before all of this shizzle happend, I was making my way along. I had managed to achieve a sloppy whiplash flatland trick, a perfect endo, a wheelie, and a footjam. Some other lil things, but those werent much. I could never get the bunny hop though. But now, I’m a few months out of practice.
So, that means that in the spring, I’ll be buying a new bike, and starting from the ground up. I’ll focus less on flatland, and more on park.
...thats it. that was alot of typing for me…
