This makes me want to get it 100% right.

 

I think someone said the right words...it's about believing you can do it.

 

My motto about learning to MTB...first you have to find out what the bike can do, the you find out what you can do...

Hmm.... i'm not convinced this is an essential trick to learn, depending on the type of riding you do and the type of pedals you use.

 

I must admit I would like to be able to do the correct bunny hop but not sure i'm going to spend to much time trying...managed to survive so far without being able to do it.

 

IMO its a bit like being able to wheelie for long distances, nice but not essential....

I have a long way to come even close to what my bike can do but luckily I am not a 'circus act' and have come to terms with my genetic limitations ;)

Too true, that's probably why I can't do half the stuff others can, I've made it so far without and do pretty well I think.

 

Some people have lots of time on their hands, bwahahaha.

 

I can climb pavements at least :blush:

It's not a trick. It's the only way to pull the hot cherries!

The other thing I've learnt is that I need a certain level of technicality because I don't have the power to pull me through as most guys do.

Sure, not essential but cool....that it is...you can dismount pick your bike up and walk over the big log in the way or you can pop over it like its nothing...carrying the speed you built up....your call

I still think jerk-off was a better name than pronk.

 

While saying "I pronked that log" is funny, saying "I jerk-offed that log" is way better.

This is not open for debate anymore....its a pronk.
