no wonder I was never able to get pop on my mini bunny hops lol I always kept my feet and pedals parallel to the ground. I like how you mentioned you can be a teen or in your mid 30's to bmx.. I might just go fix my bmx😆 great video Alf👍
about 1:40 and I realize this might be the first "basic bmx tricks" video I have seen that has such comprehensive organization to the tricks that are shown, and their order. Thanks for taking the time to think it through.
Literally in my mid 30s watching this video lol I'm servicing/rebuilding my old DJ Four Pack and taking it out riding again. Skate parks didn't exist in my teen, riding years so I'd like to visit one now. Thanks for the great content, I've been watching your videos one by one and will continue to as I rediscover my enjoyment of riding BMX :)
Just starting BMX after having skateboarded my entire life, but having issues with my pushoff foot,. But I still yern to just cruise around downtown, and search for sick spots to hit. It sucks not being good physically like I used to. I'm 38, and REALLY falling in love with BMX! This video is a GREAT help. Thank you.
Absolutly love watching you guys street ride with a few buddys ,love seeing your streets n citys n towns love watching you guys ride into sun set , im 46 but will always be a little boy in all ways ive just bought a 2020 fitbikeco prk ,gloss copper paint , chrome forks , i got the dealer to put a front brake on being old school i run my front brake lever on the right like a dirtbike and rear on the left , im not sure if i should use alloy or nylon pegs as lots of the grinds ill be doing are ruff surfaces so im thinking nylon may slide easyer , im getting back into bmx because i love it and for health as i move away from dirtbikes and its good for my grandkids , electric mini bikes have stopped them peddling so im hoping seeing pop at the park on his bmx and nan on her mtn bike riding with me to the prk will inspire them to pedal more , Alfredo your changing my life buddy please keep the videos coming and hope you never stop riding untill the very end
So I've a question, the current bmx I own is a 99 gt pro performer, I'm wanting to upgrade the drive train by running a 28/9 the current set-up is 43/16, what would be a good 9t option?
i cant do manuals all the time, i think its down to my frame size with the back part being longer. my handle bars are in line with my forks. if i was to have my handle bars a bit forward i think that will help me get in to position. my bike is a WTP Volta 2010 and has a top tube 21" when dans camp says my size is 20". the bike apparently has 9t rear sprocket and 25t sprocket at the crank. im thinking of getting a bigger sprocket like 28t but then would i really have to change the rear sprocket to a 10t?
Bar position is wherever feels comfortable to you preferably not too far forward or backwards although and when places say a bmx is 20" it usually means fork and wheel size not your TT and DT length which in your case is 21 20" is standard in bmx if u look at a cruiser it'll probably be listed as 22" or bigger due to forks needing to be larger and wheels being larger your chain stay length the end of your bike typically if its longer its easier to hold a manual and not loop out consistently but you may learn them quicker on a shorter rear
is a forgotten enigma bmx a good starter bike? because thats the bmx i have these are the stats • New 20.65" TT Frame Design • New 9.25" Cromo Bars • Tapered Pro Style Fork Cromo Legs • 'Tempered' Zephyr Flangeless Grips • Die-cast pro style 7000 series alloy stem • Cromo Tubular 3pc Cranks • Sealed Mid BB 19mm Axle • Sealed Cassette 9T Driver • 25/9T Gearing • 20"x2.30" Innova Tyres Front & Rear • KMC 510H Chain • Alloy Rims 36 Hole • PC Pedals • Clear Brake Pads For Superior Braking Power • New Custom Fat Style Seat & Post Combo
are 180s easier with a coaster or no? because whenever i try to 180 with a cassette i can’t fakie out of them. i lean back and pedal backwards and i don’t go anywhere.
Zvch. I wondered the same thing so I bought a freecoaster and at first I was terrible with it but once I got use to it I could 180 fine, with the cassette I would just stop instantly pretty much and not roll back but with the freecoaster I find it's easier to 180 and keep the fakie going
Tony Lanovaz maybe i should get one, with the cassette i had the same problem and couldn’t get momentum to fakie, even if i go faster or do less carbs i couldn’t fakie out of it.
it's possible that you're just not landing the jump straight enough. I had the same problem. I thought I was getting the full 180 but in reality I was only getting a 160 or something, maybe get one of your friends to film you doing it. if you get enough speed, carve, turn your head and put a bit more effort into the hop you should roll back, even if it's just a little bit at first.
I have a question do i chose brakes on my bmx or no brakes im not exactly sure what you use but i want brakes for the extra safety just in case but doing bar spins and tailwhips will be easier without brakes ... i dont know what to do
So i have a bmx bike but the only problem is the size... the TT is 20.85 but i'm only 170cm high. The good thing is that i'm only 15 so i can grow up in cm. What to do? Change the frame or just keep the 20.85 one?
I grew up way down in tasmania riding bmx in the 80s we called a bunny hop when you lift both wheels up even together when we pulled the front wheel up first to hop we called it a mono hop ?so what you call a bunny hop we called a mono hop and a bunny hop was both wheels up together , we also had a trick called a rock walk with or without brakes we 180 the back around leaving the front wheel down and turned then we 180 the front around leaving the back wheel planted , the rock walk , different place cool riders small island
Good to see you catering to goofy riding too, sucks to see how so many tutorials say you're not doing the trick right if it's not the same way they're comfortable doing it.
Bunny hop: Lift the front up then lean forward whilst in the air. Your front must be high and your body needs to at least get to the bars. Easier bunny hop (not shown in video): Your pedals must be horizontal to the ground. Push down on the bars and lift up. Bend your knees. Endo: Do easier bunny hop but lean forward on the bars and don't lift the front up. Hope this helps!!!
Cool Alfredo looking forward to this new idea you have👍 Just wish I was young enough to enter as id of been there in a shot lol! Don't think my 39 year old body will take the Shit ✌✌✌✌✌✌ Really looking forward to watching thou it'll be the best thing out there
So I guess pushing the bike with your foot is the secret to the 180? When I was younger I always tried forcing the bike by rotating my upper body hard in the direction I wanted to go. It always seemed harder than it should of been. Now that I am getting back into riding I will have to try pushing the bike with my foot like you showed. Thanks for the video
uhm im a kid, but i tried them out with my wethepeople bike, but i just cant do anything of them and i tried it for about 5 weeks, can someine help meh

Julen554 it might be leg power you are probably using your arms more maybe put the energy from your arms and then transfer it to the legs in a singular motion whilst lifting

Awesome video.. revisiting bmx after a 30 yr hiatus... still trying to pull off a manual, but having fun

Dope flick. Would be dope to do a video on five tricks to do when riding no pegs. NO PEG GANG haha
All of these are basically pegless tricks ;)
Alfredo Mancuso ya your right.haha was thinking more like grinds and stuff.
motto dotom Yaa still can do sproket grinds, crank arm grinds stuff like that
motto dotom also can do stuff like ghost feebles which is kind of like a grind. Pretty dope.
motto dotom ever see those tricks?
Some best advice on bunny hop I have ever heard!
My bike has a super heavy flatground trick frame, any tips on higher manuals/bunnyhops?
I learned how to bunny hop randomly lol I just pop the front wheel up and then the back came up

stoked to hear!
I’m 22 i just picked up bmx since summer is here what’s the best bike for beginners ?
So I've a question, the current bmx I own is a 99 gt pro performer, I'm wanting to upgrade the drive train by running a 28/9 the current set-up is 43/16, what would be a good 9t option?
john mcgrath go for 25/9
1:23 damn that’s a nice car
i remember being friends with this dude at cerritos skatepark 😂
for the 180 once you are in the air you turn the bike frame with the side of your leg??
While pulling the front end of the bike slightly turn it and pull your legs up (scoop the pedals) then push where direction you wanna spin
i cant do manuals all the time, i think its down to my frame size with the back part being longer. my handle bars are in line with my forks. if i was to have my handle bars a bit forward i think that will help me get in to position. my bike is a WTP Volta 2010 and has a top tube 21" when dans camp says my size is 20". the bike apparently has 9t rear sprocket and 25t sprocket at the crank. im thinking of getting a bigger sprocket like 28t but then would i really have to change the rear sprocket to a 10t?

Oh and also you don't need a 10t rear driver for a 28t sprocket you want a larger one go for it👍

Grantz looks pretty decent and would be fine, steel is fine too if you got something like a Kink Curb
Just got a Kink Drifter. Should I be able to learn these basics on a 26”?
are 180s easier with a coaster or no? because whenever i try to 180 with a cassette i can’t fakie out of them. i lean back and pedal backwards and i don’t go anywhere.

Same here. I can get all the way around but I don’t move back at all no matter my speed or anything..
For the bar spin, i learned by grabbing the seat and putting one foot on a peg. Made it easier to pull off without hurting myself.
Hey Alfredo I just saw your recent vid, I was wondering what is the deadline, also I do BMX but I’m interested in filming!!👍🏻
Please someone tell me what’s in his spokes. They look awesome!!!!! :)
Thanks for the tips
Hey I have a question can weigh be a factor because I’m only 75 Pounds and I can barely manual
Is it still possible to pick up bar if I’m right foot forward and only have a right back peg
Love you how to s videos
hellya! Thank ya!
I'm gonna practice the ends tomorrow!
And I have a lot learnings to your teaching in trix
I have a question do i chose brakes on my bmx or no brakes im not exactly sure what you use but i want brakes for the extra safety just in case but doing bar spins and tailwhips will be easier without brakes ... i dont know what to do
Gyro scope brakes give you your brakes without the hassle of the brake cord getting in the way
Thank you so much
Great content
Thank you my dude!

What was up at the end about a meeting and the other dude with the apron?
If you are having trouble doing an endo try pointing your feet down and bending your wrists down
tbh I think its best to learn the bunnyhop first, because then you can jump up curbs, and other things
Very good point
I'm want one lol looks like fun
What is your BMX weight and weight is matter for tricks
My bike weight 24lbs and the weight is important because it does make certain tricks easier
Thank you 🙏 I gust got my bike
can u do a how to switch nollie 180 plz
I’m new to the world of bmx, does anyone know where I can get those red and blue balls he has on his bike?
I get them from a Mcdonald's play pen haha
Thank you!
1:22 holy shit thats a dope whip
Can i ask something... it is ok to use a 20” bmx to a 6foot tall like me? Thanks in advance...^^
20`` is like the normal bmx size rim maybe a longer top tube?
You can also get a 22 inch bike like me gives a little bit more for taller people
Is it a good bike
Is a cult gateway good for BMXing
Nice shirt!

I think that is the street Yeezybusta filmed one of his music videos on. (No I don’t listen to, or watch him regularly)
I’d say it’s easier to use a cassette for a beginner rider because you can use pedal pressure for roll outs and half cabs
