I have done a search, and i cant find a tutorial. I'm trying to learn a footjam off a mellow bank, i know to lean into the bank, i can get about a 90* rotation /jam before i lose balance, i have tried turning my head etc etc. and would love to hear how you street riders do them. They have been bugging me for a while and i would love to get some information.

Thanks a lot guys.

Just keep trying, practice makes perfect! You will get it once, and then you will just keep getting them.

i learnt to do them on a smaller bike, before i started on a larger one..

that helped me.

Are you talking about footjams or whiplash?

Its not to good for the arch on forks you do know that right?

Ask the BMXer's around the forum. Havent seem many people footjam a mountain bike.

EDIT: try and post up a vid so we know where your at maybe?
