How to Land a Double Peg Stall on a Ramp: BMX Tricks

Video Transcript

"Hi, this is Mike, and on behalf of ExpertVillage.com, and in this clip we are going to be teaching you how to do a double peg stall on a ramp. And a double peg stall is the next step up from learning how to carve, and if you just watched the last clip you know that there are two different ways you can carve, either to the left or to the right, depending upon which way you have your foot forward. Now if you did carve to the left, you are going to be wanting to use the pegs on the right-hand side of your bike to do the stall and vice versa. So if you did carve to the right, you are going to be wanting to use the pegs on the left-hand side of your bike. A double peg stall is pretty similar to a carve but a little bit more complicated, so what you are going to want to do is go about three-quarters of the way up the ramp and start turning your bike into the ramp but at the same time leaning your body away from the ramp. And once your pegs hit, kind of center your position over your bike, turn your bars and you drop right back in. And this trick is kind of hard to learn so if you do take your foot off and put it on the deck of the ramp, do not get discouraged that just means that you are not leaning into the ramp far enough. So once you get that you should be able to do it, and that is how you do a double peg stall."
