Thanks, Phil. As the guy who has always been the one who can’t bunny hop, manual, or even pop a "wheelie", it’s nice to see that other people had trouble initially.
I’d also recommend knee pads, I recently fell after my front wheel came back down, probably because I didn’t have it completely straight and the landing threw me off balance. Got a nasty bump to the knee. Maybe next time I’ll try it in a grassy flat area.
