Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted February 1, 2012 Share No such thing as too technical. Just stuff I can't ride yet due to my mind blocking out my innate awesomeness. As for levels of tech, it would be graded against each other. Eg: faerie garden is piss easy, therefore green. DH2, however, is not so piss easy, and is therefore black. Can I do both? Yes. The latter slower than I would like as its technicality outweighs my current ability and / or level of brass ball-ality. Anything that is "too technical" would pose a challenge, nay, dare! to me, and I want to overcome that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stretch Posted February 1, 2012 Share A while ago there was a thread about whether the Sani2C was technical or not.I was interested because I wasn't sure what to expect. But there was no consensus because no one could agree on what was technical in the first place.i have been told it is not technical by someone who has done it and is less technical than I and a girl (use that last bit of information how you want) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kosmonooit Posted February 1, 2012 Share It's mostly in ones mind - but easier said than done! Having a lead-out helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mileage Posted February 1, 2012 Share I dont think the video or the pic above are too technical. However I will try ride them at maybe 5kph.....not 25kph Speed makes not technical very technical very quickly!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any idea how fast you would have to go to get through those rotor blades?!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Deon) Posted February 1, 2012 Share I'd consider bunnyhopping a tandem technical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocknRolla Posted February 1, 2012 Share If the tandem is upright? I agree bunnyhopping it would be technical on it's side may be easier to clear - but lengthways on it's side is too technical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clyde79 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Haha, how can anyone answer this, it is like asking, how far is too far to run? Surely it can only be judged by the individual attempting it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJR Posted February 7, 2012 Share If the tandem is upright? I agree bunnyhopping it would be technical on it's side may be easier to clear - but lengthways on it's side is too technical Not for Danny SuperMac - have you seen how he bunnyhops a gate? OK, not lengthwise, maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Deon) Posted February 7, 2012 Share how about wheelieing a tandem! now thats technical! I concurr. That'd be off the wall technical. I'm getting a picture.. no, not possible.. google! Come to think of it, I am not sure what pace you need to be jamming to clear a drop off on a tandem?? It might just be drop & off. Front guy drops and rear sod falls!

(Deon) Posted February 7, 2012 Share Not really a wheelie: but the front wheel is off the ground! No two ways about it. That sir is a wheelie on a tandem (all seats occupied).. but look at the effort!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They hit the dropoffs and everything ... so it is possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
