How to Bail Out of a BMX 540 Hurricane

Video Transcript

"ANDY SEEHAUSEN: Hi. This is Andy on behalf of Expert Village, Seventh South Clothing, and Ramp Riders Skate Park. In this clip guys, I'm going to talk about and show you one way of bailing out of this trick. The other way I don't want to show because I'll likely get hurt doing it. One way, and this is the worst way, is when you go for the 180 and you either feel that you're not going to do it or you just don't feel comfortable, you can throw the bike in front of you as hard as possible. Usually, it'll land way out here and you can just slide down the quarter pipe, no problem. The other way is it is effective when you're spinning, when you're doing the 360 off of the coping. You'll sometimes come around and you'll catch out of the corner of your eye that you feel like you're going to catch the coping with your front tire so you can put your foot down on top of the deck. If you're good enough, you can usually catch the deck. It'll push you out and just a little bit, just enough to where you can roll away safely."
