Just starting to play w/stand ups but they're def not near as comfortable feeling.
I've tried the staggered, but I think I'm gonna work on just standing from the front pegs.
That still looks cool to me.

I know I know. Hell it took me MONTHS to really nail the wheelies and I'm still only about 11:15 cause I'm still accelerating. I'm rehabing a broke pinkie w/pins now so I'm on hold.

standing up does become easier to balance at lower speeds, but i have gotten used to the sit downs, cause usually these days i just do the hill riding, so i only get to show off at higher speeds, cause some of the older people that i ride with dont just want to sit around and stunt.
