By Step Instructions:
This
trick starts out by learning
the
standard superman seat grab.
grab
hand: Hand which grabs the hole in the airbox
while
you are doing a superman seat grab
Non-Grab
Hand: Hand which is not grabing the airbox
hole
and is stationary on the bars while the standard
superman
seat grab is being executed.
While
the superman seat grab is being
executed,
the hand that is still on the
handlebars
is removed. This is done after
the
grab hand is secured and as the legs are
being
pushed away from the bike. release of
the
non- grab hand can start before the legs
are
all the way extended. The non-grab hand is
brought
back to the handlebars before the grab
hand
is released to re-grab the handlebar.
Working Up to it...
While
working up to the superman seat grab one
hander,
you want to be careful and ease into
the
hand-releasing process. If the hand is removed
to
abruptly and you are not comfortable, you
may
lose your bearing (or the bike)! The first
time
the hand is removed, it should be a VERY
small
motion. In fact, the hand should not be
moved
far from the handlebars at all. The fingers
should
be spead out, releasing the pressure from
the
handlebar grip. Once you are comfortable
with
the motion of releasing your control over
the
handlebars, you may begin to pull your
hand
away from the handlebars more and more
each
time. Be sure to bring back your hand with
enough
time left in the air to safely bring your other
hand
and legs back onto the bike before landing.
