Manual Barspin

Learning to throw and catch bars and to pinch. Not pretty, but thrown and caught. Also tried my first few on resi later. Didn't go so well.

Yea I remember trying to re-learn these when I got my first ryde
I had them dialed on my gary fisher but with the seat slamed it was still at my knees

I can't pinch the seat. I pinch the cranks instead.

Ya I can't either, but to be honest manny bars are harder for me than hop bars

Now I'm just trying to figure out what will be easier to learn, hop bars, or bars on a jump. I found them quite awkward on the resi, so I think I will try some hop bars in the next few days and see how that goes. I was close to landing hop bars a while back, long before I understood the concept on bus driver-ing. I want barspins sooooo badly. I will learn this shit swaagg.

My bar progression went
manny bars...(3 years later)bars on a bank, fakie bars on a bank. hop bars, sketchest resi bar ever, bars into bank, bars to fakie, bars out of bank.
