How do I stop fakie hops?

[Tone Staubs]

I can't find a thread on here and i try and practice like an hour a day on them and still no results, how do i fix this?

Try putting your ass more over the brake and bend your knees

I tried that before, the deck just starts to turn even faster away from me and i end up sliding out

just practice alot and learn how to balance while your doing a fakie

So essentially theres no way to just stop it, it has to come naturally?

dont hop try that might work lol

 

[Tone Staubs]

dont hop try that might work lol

Haha, then i fall over haha

 

[Victor Saldarriaga]

lean your butt back look at your front wheel stay in middle of the deck

haha i remember learning this all you got to do is tell yourself not to hop and just keep going even if its for an inch. Practice that and youll keep going father and father

put your hands at the very end of your bars, lean back, and learn how to use your bars to keep balance. lean back so much that you cant fakie hop.

fakies take alot of practice though, you kinda have to train yourself to feel the movements that are going to throw you off balance. the only way to really get them good is to practice as much as you can.

the way i learned is i went to a basketball court and practiced nonstop, and i got them full court in like 3 hours.

Well u shudnt have started those in the first place but my advise is u have to countersteer (obviosly) but when u lean one way, lean the scooter even more that way. It somehow mellows it out so it won't throw u off

the best way was to not do them

You hop like a fucking frog when you fakie

 

[Zach!]

[Kroto]

just do it till you fall off eventually you will get further and further and before you know it you will be able to con-troll it, try move with your deck whie you are doing it too, helps to keep balanced

work on steering with your bars instead of hopping left/right. Steer the opposite way and lean your body into it
