How to air out of the quarter pipe on a bmx???

Question

ok i can kinda do quarters already like half way / 3/4 of the way up but i cant bring myself to "air out of it" im scared of casing my backwheel and flipping ova the bars.

any tips or hints on how to avoid this or help me get confidence up.

thnx

Answer 1

To start out do not try to jump out and come straight back down, go up to the pipe at a comfortable speed and head toward the top and make a sharp turn to get the feel of gliding up and down the pipe and once you get up to speed at the copping pretend your just lifting your bars up and follow that same turning motion and bring you rear tire right around with you. Just keep practicing this and you should get it in no time.

Answer 2

To air out all you need to do is basically bunny hop out.  You pull up then pop your back up.  It is alot easier then it looks.
