Taylor that's what i'm saying. i'm unsure as to which side to do them as i find both pretty comfy

do them with your back foot going up, the reason for this is so you can take a foot off much easier because your cranks will stay level, trust me i do it the opposite of what i just said and i can only invert so big before i have to take a foot off and then i just f*ck up when my foot comes off

Most people line them up with the same angle as their forks.

Start with them at the same angle as your fork (unless you have a director) and figure out your preference forwards or back from there.

Regular Trailmixes are good, I blew the bearings in my MG-1's really quick. Don't get Macneil F.A.C.E. pedals if you have big feet, so painful.

i rock my a tiny bit forward of my fork , it makes it a little bit easier to do hang fives, but its all preference.


jamie12345:

i have trail mixes and they are great, macneil slipless have a large platform but i've never ridden them and they have a hefty price tag.
