no way man... that was no dead-sailor. you were a little squirly, maybe, but if i remember correctly, there were a bunch of people standing around near the landing. you got all twitchy-sideways, and SAVED it. that part still totally impresses me.

and about X-ups... can anyone here do a good X-up? and teach me what the hell my problem is? on the ground, i can wheelie and do between an X-up and a 270 X-up. in the air, it seems that the best i can get crossed up is shown above. it's consistent. just a hair past 90. what's up with that? i have a similar issue with table-tops, but i've never been able to do those in any circumstance....

I am in the same boat. I can go about 90 degrees for a X up too. Last night I cut my bars shorter though, 25 1/4 inch now. Im thinking maybe that will help. As far as tables go, I suk major elephant nuts doing that. I can whip fairly good though. But evertime I try a table, I get all crooked and wind up playing disaster recovery rather than jumping.

I did have a good save on that berm jump didnt I :p

This is what I read about flatties: Learn them while on your back on the ground. I haven't tried it, but I hear it works.
