Wheelies & Stoppies

stoppies... there called endos here in uk

Only if your not a biker, endo is a BMX term I think. What\'s everyones record for stunts.

Wheelie - 719.4 meters
Stoppie - 70.8 meters.

I was impressed but am sure I\'ll be humbled very soon!!

I dont know about meters, but my longest wheelie in seconds was about 24.
Stoppies I only got to about 3, i swear Ill get 4 soon tho. MF\'s are hard.

Dont forget, the ps2 buttons for the accelerator and brake are pressure sensitive.
You can use this to your advantage for balancing wheelies and endos

On the PCJ 600 use the d-pad as it\'s not as sensitive, lean back as far as you can and use half throttle.

Got up to 27 seconds!
Still only 3 with the stoppies tho.

Can anyone get a respectable wheelie using the crossers, damn they\'re twitchy.

What do you mean by "crossers"? The mopeds?

Also Proud, jump on a \'moped (Pizza Boy works great) and
try this for a stoppie:
Get to a nice cruising speed, then lean forward and hit both
brakes. Let off on the regular brake (square) pretty quickly,
and you should be cruising while holding the handbrake (R1).
Keep gassing it, and you can even let off the handbrake.
You\'ll basically just stay in the "stoppie" position until you
start to turn sideways, or hit a bump or something.

Last night, I did a stoppie for 6 or  7 seconds, something like
150meters, or whatever they measure. I tried to let of the
lean with the d-pad - I think you can probably extend the stoppie
for quite a while, but I have to work on that some more.

Crossers may be a British-ism, not sure what countries everyone\'s from, they\'re the off roaders that sound like a very large bee having a fit inside a tin can.

Ah, the dirtbikes. Gotchya...Yeah, they are a bit squirly.
Can hit some nice jumps on them, though?

*This is a bit of a spoiler...but oh well...*











Have you guys jumped the "wave" near the airport? I didn\'t
realize it was a jump until just last night...

I\'m curious now.

wheelies are easy, just keep tapping X to balance yourself out nicely, works especially well if you\'ve got a long straight road.

I kinda figured out a way like that.
I usually haul ass with the PCJ, then slam on the normal brakes, when it starts to go down, slam on the handbrake(with the normal brake.) It pops my back end up again so I get some extra yardage. But still cant get quite long enough for a 6-7 seconder.

I just today did a 47, yes 47, second wheelie!!!! I\'m so proud of myself, could have kept going if I didnt run out of road!! God I\'m good!

the trick to do wheelies it to get on your rear tire then just tap gas. I have done wheelies like this for 18 seconds. (my longest yet)

All records broken!!! Just don a SIXTY second wheelie, 2.5km or somethin like that!!!!!
