So I watched this one twice before riding tonight and I just landed my first couple bar spins. Thanks man I really appreciate the advice and all your videos man.
Here with ya bro at 44. I’ve just recently managed a few super sketchy pull up bars that look like trash but it’s giving me confidence and building muscle memory to progress with it. Good luck, have fun, and be safe my fellow old dude
48 and can only do pull up bars. I can't hop high enough with legs straight to do it on flat. I am going to try fly out next. Maybe into a pool when it's warmer :)
I feel you. We are in the same boat. 41 and trying to get my bunny hop higher so I can attemp bars, I can see some falling in the near future, ha. Let´s leave nothing for the worms, ha ha. Good luck to everybody
@@worm6948 I had a gnarly one of those as a kid riding down a huge hill that had a patch of pine needles at a corner at the bottom .. bike came out from under me bars turned and went straight to the stomach .. no bar ends just a torn up piece of circular metal straight to my tummy
My favourite was stomping it clean af when no one was watching, and then when I went to show my friends I missed the bars, fell backwards and sprained my thumb the worst it’s ever been sprained. Couldn’t even press buttons to play video games for like 2 weeks.
It's so nice to have these daily BMX videos from our beloved Spencer. With uploads like this, you'd almost think he was a vlogger, and not some kind of action sport adventurer
I watched this, I had learned to bar before, but they were super sketchy and only about half of the time would land. I forgot after breaking my ankle. Then I decided I need to get better at them. Now I can do them on banks and bank hips and off of drops. This helped so much. Thanks Spencer :)
Excellent video. I just started riding a set of Momentums, and they're better than I expected. The secret to my learning barspins was not worrying about catching the bars too much to land them.
Your tutorials are the best on TH-cam. I started BMX only this year at age 37 and I have watched multiple videos of yours. You make them very simple to understand and fun to watch. I still practice my balance by trying to ride on a line in a parking lot, from another video of yours. Keep up the great work, greetings from Australia 🦘🇭🇲
Thank you BMX Dr Foresman for publishing your barspin research. This trick takes a lot of commitment and persistence, I have yet to unlock it. But maybe with your research I'll be able to do it.
Another good tip is to throw the barspin at the peak of your bunny hop, most people panic and just try to throw it straight away, but wait till you're either at the peak or just about to come down and it'll come around
Nyquist taught me how to bar spin when we were sophomores in high school. Probably the most satisfying trick I ever pulled-definitely best endorphin rush of my life.
just bought a sunday primer, i used to bike a lot when i was a kid and was never very good. just bunny hopping around and trying to do front footjam tailwhips and stuff but this videos sick man imma try to learn all this shit. hope your having a great day! thanks :)
From someone who just learned these. If you want to become a regular bar spinner, you need to learn the bus method, it's way more accurate and consistent in and out of weird places. The throw catch method looks cooler but it's less consistent, I hit my knee all the time and the bike gets away from you easier. If you can do them hop, you can do them anywhere. I learned them flyout and it's a totally different trick than hop. Good luck
Your hop barspin story reminds me of when I was learning impossibles on a skateboard I tried for months and months and couldn't unlock it. I quit trying for a little while. Then randomly gave it another try, landed it and then landed almost every single one after that. Keep putting in the effort and it may just click one day
While we’re on the subject of how to’s, could you please explain the process of taking your table tops from less than great to inverted, it seems like you’ve recently figured it out
I found with barspins a good practice is to try and do it same form as u are used to while rolling probs in grass at first, once u get the hang of this bar spins will just come to u
I really struggle with the fear of the hop bar. I have a solid hop, probably 2 ft, maybe 3 ft max. And I can even do a pull up bar regular and switch, I can do everything you mentioned. But when it comes to letting go with my left hand while in the air, I really struggle. Gonna try your trick
Having trouble pinching my seat, higher i put the seat still goes away from my knees, will be getting a fatter seat and go from there, great video!! 😎👌
Yo man, i learned a barspin but in the wrong way (i'm doing a oppo barspins instead of my regular, so i can't do the 180 barspins etc.) What do you recommend? To learning it in right way or just leave it?
@@sajmon_mtb9612 yeah, but i can do oppo bar from stairs or grinds, and i can’t even spin the bar in my regular way 🤣 so i need an advice from expert 😎
Please make a How-To date Jay's sister. Sorry, I had too much fu__in lemonade, but seriously :this really might be the best barspin video on TH-cam. The five tricks to learn before barspin are a great way to get it done. I appreciate Your content and in most, if not all, videos we either laugh our asses off or learn something new.
So I started throwing bunny hop barspins but I throw it with both hands not intentionally but is there a way to break this habit? I could 100% catch the bars if I just would be able to pass it off to my other hand. When I do truck driver style I let go but grip to tight with my throw hand and it usually ends with my arm all twisted awkwardly. I’m 37 and just recently got the balls to start throwing them. I can do it on my back like in this video but when it comes to the real thing I 2 hand throw and I hate it. Anyone have any suggestions?
That technique of just throwing the bars and landing without even catching them just by pinching the bike is really clever. I'm still practicing Xups, but progressing in baby steps like that feels less intimidating.
So I watched this one twice before riding tonight and I just landed my first couple bar spins. Thanks man I really appreciate the advice and all your videos man.

Congrats to
nice
Going to take this information and put it to use. Trying my first bar spins at 41 years old.
Here with ya bro at 44. I’ve just recently managed a few super sketchy pull up bars that look like trash but it’s giving me confidence and building muscle memory to progress with it. Good luck, have fun, and be safe my fellow old dude
Working on them at 34 here. I've been trying for 4 months and managed to land a few sketchy ones. Wear shin guards is all I can say 😂
48 and can only do pull up bars. I can't hop high enough with legs straight to do it on flat. I am going to try fly out next. Maybe into a pool when it's warmer :)
im 29 and decided to own a bmx n start riding ;)
I feel you. We are in the same boat. 41 and trying to get my bunny hop higher so I can attemp bars, I can see some falling in the near future, ha. Let´s leave nothing for the worms, ha ha. Good luck to everybody
My favorite memories when learning hop bars was landing with the bars 90’ then getting punched in the gut by the bar end. Fun times!
Ah yes, especially with no bar ends on the handlebars. A nice circle imprinted on your stomach.
@@worm6948 Or try 3 inches into your stomach like my buddy. Was one of the sickest things I had seen shy of everything I saw while deployed..

My favorite was when I landed with my foot in the hole under the toptube and almost breaking my ankle.

So you can teach an old dog new tricks... This 49 year old who just started riding again after 13 yrs just learned bar spins... U da man Spence.

No
I love that park. I used to ride there years ago.

Spencer is my favorite bmx rider and he's the reason why I started bmx again
This is probably one of the best in depth barspin tutorials out there! Thanks Spencer!

After this video I'm bar spinning crazy

easily the only informative barspin vidio ive ever seen.

X-Court, love that park
best videos of yt are this tutorials my lord.
Thanks dude. Those one handed hop bars blew my mind. I've been riding for twenty five yrs and relearning bars at forty years old. Bless
I’m going to try my first bar out soon !
this is right down the street from my house. I love that park.

You to huh?
Hi from Russia! It is most cool guide in live!
The world needs more action adventure videos !!! We miss the lad!!!
I am always happy to see a Spenser video in my feed.🔥🔥🤟🤟🔥🔥
I turn 31 this month. Still have not done a proper barspin. This is really helpful, so thanks for this.
34 here and I suck at bars too
just bought a sunday primer, i used to bike a lot when i was a kid and was never very good. just bunny hopping around and trying to do front footjam tailwhips and stuff but this videos sick man imma try to learn all this shit. hope your having a great day! thanks :)

No way two days ago I was watching the old bar spin vid and this is a new updated vid let’s goo!!
Best man on youtube* ❤
Big confidence building video- thank you I’m five and learning 👍🏼👍🏼
This vid explains very well about bar spin, All those geo things bar, stem, fork...thanks for sharing this
Thank you Sponsor Foreskin
"Tall seat post and small bars", it's back to the 90s for this tutorial!
Keeping 1 foot on the ground is a great helpful tip bro. Thanks 🙏
3:55 - Gyroscopic Procession can be fun... But it can also be your worst enemy. LoL
your how to videos are the best.
greetings from austria/vienna. 👍
Thanks, Huskie. this helps visualize me for barspins. Practice makes perfect, but this helps me aim for it.
Thanks professor ! Best stunt bike learning channel. 👌
Really helped more than any other video. Truly appreciate this video.
I thought your previous barspin tutorial (easiest way) was better but this one is pretty good too
Nice Ty morrow seat I have one in grey, about to build up a white Soundwave V3 this week
I 💚 Spencer’s BARS!!
Every man in a porta-pot “ I didn’t die cuz I had a good pinch” ha thanks Spence that’s classic
Your welcome bro. Get a Slushy for me! Or polar pop lol.
I learned doing manual bar first. This is probably the best tutorial I’ve seen.
pretty much perfect timing for me since i wana start with barspins soon. Thanks man!
I just started biking and learned bars hopefully this video will help me clean them up lol
Your no hander lander is the best tip
awesome how to do vid its great you take your time to do vids on how to do tricks
I was wearing this blue dead sailor shit when i landed my first barspins fly out today. Thanks for the tips Spencer.
This video has confirmed I need to work on my pinch. I kinda want to try 165mm cranks, it'd help the big feet situation too.
It's more than possible as I always ran 175's yrs ago..I don't know why everyone started running small cranks and freecoasters yrs ago..
i like small cranks , i just run em because my size 13 feet hit my switch rear peg too much before

I rode this park in Glendale Arizona a few times 👍👍.
You funny! Make me laugh and learn!!
Appreciate the info/tips🔥
This helped the heck out of me

First try - broke my arm, wohoee!
This really helped me out, thanks.
.Spencers ❗the man..
Good video!! I abandoned trying this trick but now I want to practice it a lot!

Thanks for the video Senor, I am still trying to bar spin,
I have a question, what's your height & what's your BMX top tube length?

Having trouble pinching my seat, higher i put the seat still goes away from my knees, will be getting a fatter seat and go from there, great video!! 😎👌
Nice tutorial
I was just watching your bunny hop video and I thought, man it's been a bit since Spencer dropped a tutorial

Another daily upload I see
Me who has watched every single barspin tutorial and knows everything about them but still wont throw it
It’s about fucking time spencer.. God!
Yo man, i learned a barspin but in the wrong way (i'm doing a oppo barspins instead of my regular, so i can't do the 180 barspins etc.) What do you recommend? To learning it in right way or just leave it?
get it better, learn other way, perfect, start doing the other way in spins
@@sajmon_mtb9612 yeah, but i can do oppo bar from stairs or grinds, and i can’t even spin the bar in my regular way 🤣 so i need an advice from expert 😎
@@bartek6352 surely just learn regular bars! that way you can do two tricks instead of just one.
@@bartek6352 ok, sorry for advice from a noob, call emil johansson for help😂
@@sajmon_mtb9612 nahh man i didn’t mean that you’re noob :) that’s was a joke
Thanks guys for advices, I will start learn a barspins in my right way 🤟
Hey he is at heroes park on bethany home and 83rd ave Phoenix az
Does the brake affect a bar spin?
Spencer next plz make how to hop tailwhip
Please make a How-To date Jay's sister. Sorry, I had too much fu__in lemonade, but seriously :this really might be the best barspin video on TH-cam. The five tricks to learn before barspin are a great way to get it done. I appreciate Your content and in most, if not all, videos we either laugh our asses off or learn something new.
If you're one of the 11 people out there with front brakes you can do something about that rotational weight.
So I started throwing bunny hop barspins but I throw it with both hands not intentionally but is there a way to break this habit? I could 100% catch the bars if I just would be able to pass it off to my other hand. When I do truck driver style I let go but grip to tight with my throw hand and it usually ends with my arm all twisted awkwardly. I’m 37 and just recently got the balls to start throwing them. I can do it on my back like in this video but when it comes to the real thing I 2 hand throw and I hate it. Anyone have any suggestions?
11:32 "i'll do a chill one since its the first trick"
Your first barspin how to had me just flick it and rip it 😄 🤣
Stay Rad Spencer! :)
Nice
Great video, although I did close my eyes and all I could hear was Kermit the frog 😂😂😂
It took me one day to learn them hop.
Nice tutorial but its a real twenty minutes! But super nicely explained 👍
That technique of just throwing the bars and landing without even catching them just by pinching the bike is really clever. I'm still practicing Xups, but progressing in baby steps like that feels less intimidating.
i spin to the left right foot forward hand hand should i throw the bars with and what hand should be catching….pause…
Man the back bars is literally the equivalent of the turtle roll boarding the slopes.
totally same for mtb just a little heavier
I should have watched this instead of trying to do it on my 2nd bike ride after being out of it for 20 years lol
how to pegs hard 180
Maybe we can get a rock to fakie tutorial from ur buddy skylar????
Spencer any tip on storing your tongue in your left cheek and not biting it while doing tricks? hahahaha. great content as usual keep it coming.
Instead of removing your brake Sunday makes an Oem twist brake mechanism
Every bike company makes them they’re Called gyro brakes
