How to do a Fufanu BMX Bike Trick

Video Transcript

I'm about to demonstrate how to do a foo-foo-noo, on a less-than-optimal obstacle. I'm about to basically do one on a really flat wedge. And the reason for that is that it's going to allow me to more efficiently demonstrate a lot of the body English that goes into doing the trick. If you're going to learn it, you generally want to do it on something that's a little bit steeper, because you're not going to have to hop as hard into it. It's going to make the whole thing a little bit easier. But then also, if you're going to practice on something really flat like this, it will also ensure that you have your proper form down; because if you are having trouble placing your back wheel on something really flat like this, or spinning out of it enough, that will give you an idea of the aspects of the trick you need to work on. So here it goes. Because of how flat this wedge is, I really don't need to go very fast at all. Pick up, lock my wheel, and I pull back up and look over my shoulder. So basically, I'll do that again actually. You go up, you aim your back wheel right for that corner, and then you look back up over your shoulder. And as you can see, I really was like a loaded spring right there; where, once I have my back wheel where I want it, you want to compress down and look over your shoulder. And then once you explode up off your legs and pull your bars up towards your chest, your bike's going to kind of come around like this, and come down into the transition. And it should line up pretty much right. If you're not coming down straight up and down, don't worry about it too much. The only difficult thing about doing it on an obstacle like this, is that gauging your speed is pretty important. And, it also can be difficult with something where there's a pretty minimal angle right there, to feel where your back tire is. Because I could actually tell right there, sort of by looking down when I wasn't quite up on the corner there, probably want to go just a touch faster. But, like I said, you want to learn it on something steeper, because it also will allow you to feel whether or not you're on that corner. And you know that you have the trick really locked in, when you can go and gage your speed properly, and you put your back wheel right on that corner, so that your tires compressing around the corner. From there, you get the good spring back, pull your bars pretty close to your chest, look over your shoulder, and spin around. And you want to land both wheels roughly at the same time.
