    I’ve been biking a long time. Up to this point, when I attempted to track stand, I just locked the brakes and tried to balance as best I could. Thanks for showing me a better method. I plan to practice a lot this winter, and hopefully be decent at it in time for spring.

    • @SuperRiderTV

      Perfect! I'm sure you'll make some great progress this winter - please keep me posted as you do! If you ever have questions, feel free to pop into the Twitch livestream and I'll be happy to answer them on the spot.

      what I found helped me a lot was practicing on the 3 bikes I had at the time- MTB, trials bike AND my road bike. I found once I did that it became easier real fast. I think it was just learning how the dynamic (I know, weird to say dynamic about a move meant to hold you in place) transferred to the different geometries of the bikes. Sadly, my trials bike was stolen, I have since sold off the road bike but just use my mountain bike for everything now. ALSO- practice riding really slow. It helps with balance. I also like to stop and start- just roll, stop, roll, stop, etc. If you do not have a immovable object then find a small incline and point your front wheel up that. Pedal pressure is then used to keep you from rolling backward.

    Thanks, Aaron. This is a great tutorial. That did clear up the question that I asked you on Twitch Tv yesterday about pedal pressure. I would recommend to anyone who would like to share a great back and forth chat with a great guy and a super rider to subscribe to your Twitch Tv channel. Have a good week and see you on Tuesday.

    Great vid, as alwaya. May I've a question? When my front wheel directed left, I feel comfi when my left foot is in front. When I turn the wheel to the right, should I put my right feet in front? Obviously my left foot is the chocolate one, when it comes to Trackstand and anyway it much easier for me to Trackstand when wheel directed to the right.

    • @SuperRiderTV
      @SuperRiderTV  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks! When you trackstand, keep you chocolate foot forward, no need to switch your stance. Most people trackstand with their front wheel pointing away from their front foot - but if you have more confidence and balance doing it the opposite way, it’s totally fine. As long as you can do the rest of the technique, you’re good to go!

    • @SuperRiderTV
      @SuperRiderTV  2 роки тому

      Whatever works best for you, if you’re comfortable and it’s working flawlessly, definitely don’t change it up. But…if you are having any struggles getting it and need to try a different approach to get it, then I’d suggest switching your front wheel direction. The reason I teach that way is having your front foot so close to the front wheel helps make the connection in your mind (and muscle memory) of how the pedals and wheels are closely connected for this technique. Hope that helps!

    Hi does gear choice matter too? Thank you

    • @SuperRiderTV
      @SuperRiderTV  2 роки тому +1

      I usually run about the fourth gear, just so it’s easy to put pressure on the pedals - but has a little movement. Too light of a gear and the pedal pressure won’t do anything.

    I didn't know such training exists. I want to do it at my balcony, but this damn heat is unbearable. Can't do it inside my home cuz no space for my bike.
    I have an issue with the wombling. Every time I try that on the road, either my balance is off and I lean either left or right, or my bike is wombling itself. Any tips on those? I have seen others do that with the foot on the front tire, or others do 90 degrees turn for the front tire for the perfect balance.
    Plus, my new bike might not have the back pedal, like few bikes do. So what to do in this case?

    • @SuperRiderTV
      @SuperRiderTV  2 роки тому +1

      The part that makes the biggest difference is pulling your body weight from the front of the bike to the back. Using the momentum from that movement will get the bike moving back (and then you just push on the pedals to get it to roll forward). Hope that helps!

  • @duroxkilo
    @duroxkilo 3 роки тому +1

    on my first attempts it took so much energy it's not even funny :}
    not being tense helps a lot keeping the balance but it takes a while to get comfortable and relax.. should pressure on the handlebars be minimal?

    • @SuperRiderTV
      @SuperRiderTV  3 роки тому +1

      It gets easier once your muscle memory kicks in for sure! I try to keep my weight over the center of the bike (maybe even a little back from there) - that helps when you’re rolling back, too.

    Does your bike goes backwards when pedaling backwards? Mine doesn't.

    • @SuperRiderTV
      @SuperRiderTV  2 роки тому +2

      It doesn’t - when you backpedal, it releases the pressure on the rear hub. Your body’s movement from front to back creates the momentum for everything to roll backwards.

      I will probably sweat less once I lose weight. I am 6"4" and 320lbs. I gained a lot of weight this year after I broke my bike. It took months to get a new one and I became a couch potato. I need to get the weight off this winter. At this weight, it is hard to do any trials.
