FS2019 Silly Rabbit Trix Pointless Prize

This would be a two-fer: bunny hopping up stairs

[josh]

I’d like to put out a call for someone to help me learn some of these, and then we can film each other’s stunts. PM me or comment here if you’re interested (will buy beer in exchange for teaching).

Yeah, I saw this video earlier this week which gave me the idea for the Drop Bar Doubler points. It’s so much harder to do this stuff when you’re crouched over and cramped up like that.

I don’t have a drop bar bike, but maybe I can borrow someone else’s to try this

If you were closer, I’d consider it, but I’m all EASTSIIIIDE! When we meet for the FS group rides, we’ll do some practice/sessioning.

I think learning to ride slower until you eventually trackstand helps with the balance, and balance is the key for most of these. Also, speed. Go faster and you’ll stay uprighter cuz gyroscopy and stuff. Maybe

This is a vid from 12 years ago of me going up stairs on a rigid singlespeed mtb with Jones bars:

In a similar vein I’d like to put out a call for folks with mad video compositing and FX skills.

Prize goes to the person/people with the most points. If a tie, the person with the most style wins.

So the top prize is 2 pairs of Trix socks: one pair for the guys and one pair for the gals.

Be safe and have fun!

Track stand (with hands, drop bar bonus):

I believe this is worth 20 points. I have a while to learn no-handed.

Ride no hands:

Should be worth 3 points.

Ride up curb:

Video’s not that great, let me know if I need a better angle. 2 points (will come back with smaller tires for the bonus, but not comfortable doing this fixed yet)

Bunny hop:

Shitty video and shitty bunny hop. Let me know if I need to re-film this (and learn to do a legit bunny hop). Potentially 4 points

I’ve made a chart that lists descriptions, qualifiers, points, if it gets Drop Bar Double points, and possible real life uses:

Even if you’re not a contender for this pointless prize, the spreadsheet with drevil’s “Real life uses” are worth checking out. I now know what I need to learn so I can survive dinosaurs coming back
