Ok.
Turndowns. Lots of people loves them because they are a trendy trick but how many people are there that just cant seem to do them? this is for you.
Todd and Yimmy, Alex Skatepark
I learnt turndowns first on vert. why? I will tell you.
turndowns on vert are best to learn first because it teaches you everything easier. what you have to to is roll up to it at a medium pace. comming up to it, i drop my front peddle down. this is so my feet are almost already where they need to be. as you lift off the lip, straighten your legs and turn the bars around your legs as normal. the main reason people cant turndown is because their legs arnt straight. legs straight = sexy turndowns. what you also want to do is flick the tail round INTO the way you turn your bars. this helps for a more clicked turndown/lookback. unwrap and roll away.
James, Alex Skatepark
now onto a hip.
take what i said and do exactly that. but this time, when you go to turndown, GET THE BIKE VERTICAL. It looks better 90 degrees angle from the ground. also the more straight the bike is, the more clicked it is. for the lookback, GET THE BIKE AS FLAT AS POSSIBLE. it looks better when you get the bike parallel to the ground and it also helps when your trying to click it.
Matt, Pac Pines Skatepark
now for the fun part. the clickage.
the secret to a super snapped turndown/lookback is how far around the bars you lean. look at any super huge turndown pic. the only thing you can see of them from behind is their ass because they are that far around. do that, and your turndowns will become huge. if your nerd enough, really have a look at the pic uploaded and suss it out even more.
[b]Sam, Shoalhaven Heads Skatepark
hopefully this helps enough so now everyone can be a trend whore and blast 6ft+ high turndowns over 8ft vert hips, rofl.
Tom, Vale Skatepark
Todd, Alex Skatepark
When you have turndowns, it will be time to add something in it.
