How to Approach a BMX Feeble Grind Trick

Video Transcript

"Hi, my name is Virgil Black and I'm here at Ramp Riders Skate Park on behalf of Expert Village. In this clip I'm going to show you an approach for a feeble grind. A typical angle usually depending on how fast you want to go the more parallel with the ledge you want to be. Typically if you want to go pretty fast on the grind you want to kind of want to come close with a slight angle. Your bunny hop is going to be pretty much straight on you're going to bunny hop lifting your front wheel up. That is going to put your front wheel into the ledge and your back peg on. Another aspect of this trick usually speed and balance you are going to approach this trick in a slow speed, medium speed or fast depending on how fast you want to go on this ledge. Typically if you go slow you are kind of going to slow down to a stop in which you can hop out. If you go faster you are going to be able to go off of the ledge which is going to allow you to go a lot cleaner by landing. Usually when you hop into this trick there is a balance point with this trick when you hop on your front tire is going to land and you back peg is going to connect with the ledge. As you can kind of see the peg lays flush across the surface that allows for an added stability in the trick. With the steering aspect of this trick you want to make sure to keep it kind of close to this ledge. Right here is basically your ideal point of balance if you keep steering to far out what's going to happen usually your peg is going to slide off that is going to allow you to slide off the ledge as such."
