[@codgod106]

Yea your videos are underrated this is way better tutorial than like Adam lz or Harry main

[@AirdBMX]

+COD God thanks man that means a lot! Im just trying to help people learn tricks faster with other little tips that no one told me when i was trying to learn them!

[@Wolf9019Gaming]

Oi m8 don’t put Adam and that filthy Brit in the same sentence

[@wandren912]

Wolf9019 yeah Harry has a funny accent but except for that, he sucks

[@robbieboik6387]

True

[@jamesnester8637]

This deserves more views this was the most detailed explanation I've seen out of all the videos ive watched

[@Abowhuntersjourney]

Really under rated channel

[@thekinginblack-music5271]

Love this! I've just got a new bike after about 15 years hiatus. 35 years old starting again from scratch. This has helped loads and I need all the help I can get! 👊🏻

[@AirdBMX]

Thats awesome! Just trying to get people stoked on riding bikes!

[@GDJ_R1]

the pedal position before making them level tip was golden im a uk newbie noddy. your video just saved me money thank you. (also ur a natural on camera mate, really easy viewing)

[@jessiewarfare3453]

Hey thanks bro, this is by far the most informative video I've seen on how to fakie, I haven't had a bike for about 15 years just getting back into bmx, I'm going out to practice this stuff right now! Thanks again!

[@jessiewarfare3453]

Hey I've got going backwards down, I can even roll backwards and turn my bars enough that I've turned completely around, I'm just having a hard time popping out of it with a bunny hop or lifting my front tire. Any tips or ideas that could help me figure out the end of this maneuver?

[@rawbeef5828]

I just got a bmx after five years. And I got bodied every time I tried faikies again. Because I haven’t ever ran a freecoaster till now. So good to actually know why it was still making me pedal backwards 😂

[@AirdBMX]

Glad it helped! Have fun with it!

[@Unbelievable47]

This is my goto video since I got a freecoaster 3 weeks ago. Rode 2 months with a cassette then switched to coaster. Today I finally started doing fakie rollout sliders!! Thanks for all the tips!!

[@steve00alt70]

can you pedal backwards with a free coaster?

[@Unbelievable47]

@@steve00alt70 Yeah to disengage the hub & do crankflips which I cant do yet. But to just back pedal like a cassette for fakies that kinda defeats the purpose of a free coaster.

[@lilwhippi3221]

this is so helpfull, thanks man, nice vibes

[@rickyspanish9152]

Bro this really helped me out everyone is soo snarky about how to with freecoaster i almost didnt get one i subbed bro thanks

[@stefanb7015]

Great video, guidance and attitude.

[@AirdBMX]

Thanks I appreciate it!

[@bmx2967]

Bro like actually thanks for this vid cause I'm getting a new bike w a Freecoaster and did not know half the stuff you said about it

[@trekisfuel5047]

My man, you should be more popular and here are some things that can help. Better thumb nails and better mic quality

[@xxxgames4458]

Your vids are underrated man

[@AirdBMX]

+XXX GAMES Thanks bro! I really appreciate that!

[@chasesixx4194]

Great vid bruh been riding Cassette for about 11 years and wanted to give the freecoaster a go I was not ready for the change and your video help me out huge... I was beginning to wonder if I had made a mistake lol

[@AirdBMX]

They definitely take some getting used to, but are a lot of fun

[@mattschnorf498]

Thanks for the vid man, the slider looks so much better, I am gonna do them on my cassete as well (I have both a feeecoaster and cassete)

[@brianonthego]

Very helpful

[@ChristianAguileraa]

It may seem like a lot of information but it really helps alotttt

[@Bigbarog]

Thank u this helped me

[@nuggets4life]

Any how to fakie w/ a cassette? Great videos man

[@godismeme272]

This was very helpful thank you 👍

[@godismeme272]

Still working on this. 2:53 You made it look so damn easy. I can ride backwards now but only sitting down on the seat... I can't believe how hard this is but I'm so damn determined.

[@derrickphillips4690]

great job like ur vids. keep at it.

[@derrickphillips4690]

great job. like ur vids bro

[@jay999tv]

So long slack is better right? I have that adjustment on my fc.

[@adniv2722]

I got very tired of smashing my knees off my bars when turning around, thanks

[@dre_withwithout]

Can this apply to a free wheel too? I have what I believe is a single gear freewheel

[@Hassan-Alnajjar]

What kind of knee pads are you using?

[@GetsumapparelUk]

Well filmed man !

[@maciejwydrzynski8421]

Thanks!

[@StaxxxCmd]

Thats cool thanks

[@rxchswag]

Ima get my freecoaster tommarow and when ima when 180 just put the cranks backwards then leave it there?

[@dannynewman8715]

I just got a freecoaster and when I try to 180, when I go fakie, the pefals go backwards. I know I'm supposed to half crank to my dominant foot right before the q80 to disengage the freecoaster but it don't work for me

[@JonoHarder]

Dunno if you'll reply to this but, what tires are those? They are so chirpy! I love it.

[@AirdBMX]

They are demolition machetes

[@spncrgrn]

Hey bud, thanks for the well-explained video. I'm switching from a cassette wheel to a coaster wheel soon, would you recommend greasing it before riding on it since I'll be adjusting the slack anyway? Thanks for reading

[@AirdBMX]

I didn't grease mine at all and its still running great so it's all up to you

[@TG-Brothers]

Hi I hope you reply me.So my problem is that I just can't do the "slader".I don't like the look of halfcab so I really want to learn the slader method.So when I go for a fakie of 180 I got my weight back so I can get the speed for fakie and I just got weirdly scared of rolling out.If you can help I will appreciate if you cant no worries still love your vids.

[@braxtonmcguire8802]

I've always ridden cassette but now I'm on a freecoaster and considering I've rode cassette for so long I still have to pedal backwards on my freecoaster to keep balance, I wanna get over not having to pedal backwards on my freecoaster so plz help give tips.

[@AirdBMX]

Hey man! I went through the same thing for a little while too when I switched over. The quickest way for you to get used to it is just to make yourself not backpedal all at once. Yeah it might take a little to get used to the balance but if you stop backpedaling, faking on a free coaster will feel more natural everyday

[@minhopark7334]

Any tips for balancing? I have soooo much trouble with balancing and I've been going at it for over a year.

[@AirdBMX]

+Minho Park make sure you weight is back. Most of it is just trial and error and getting a feel for it

[@minhopark7334]

Aird Bmx if I'm falling to my left, which way should I steer to stay balanced?

[@torbandz44]

Minho Park if you fall to the left bar to the right and the bike will turn to your direction and if you fall to the right do the opposite this helped me

[@invisiblerevolution]

GOOD VIDEO!

[@AirdBMX]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@ryderjames887]

So is it normal than on my freecoaster right i Get my first crank in it skips a quarter of a crank than it starts pedaling

[@louismurdoch5100]

Yeah

[@Vanssk8dude]

can there be any slight pedal pressure at all?

[@AirdBMX]

there can be, you just have to make sure that you don't pedal to far forward which engages the hub

[@Vanssk8dude]

Aird Bmx so as far as the turn out part it's ok?always have rode cassettes so this switch is definitely different lol. but if there could be slight pressure on the turn out it would probably make it a little easier I've just heard it can tear up the internals of the hub.

[@AirdBMX]

+Morgan Keller oh yeah, it isn't the best on the hub internals. It would definetly be best to learn how to turn out of it with out the pedal pressure

[@user-nh7ne3gp4b]

Full cub?

[@riversideboysproductions731]

we're wearing the same shirt 😂

[@AirdBMX]

+Ashtin Harrison haha nice!

[@alexpop8945]

why my freecoaster sometimes pedals backwards

[@AirdBMX]

You need to have slack in it, so you need to pedal about a quarter crank past where you set your feet before you do a 180 and ride fakie

[@incredible5587]

so i bought a bike with a freecaoster and having a hard time finding a vid that tells me how much slack is normal, i need to peddle 1/3 of a turn with the freecaoster i have on my kink. to me it dont seem normal. looks like yours was like lot less than that.

[@thomasholkham4608]

I can ride fakie just fine but I could not get out for the life of me I live in Alberta Canada and last night I went out for 4 hours in -15 and I couldn't figure it out I tried over and over again and I just couldn't get it and I just need help I don't know what to do

[@AirdBMX]

Its all practice man! Try recording yourself and comparing it to what I'm doing in the video to see what parts look different

[@newplayer3861]

I use z coaster tho

[@rakapriyahitapramudito6771]

i'm here not because i have a freecaoster, is because my chain broke and im broke

[@plussizeriderlifeshardbike9318]

When i roll back my right side engages and i have to crank like a casette

[@thomaselliottmedia]

Plus size rider Lifeshardbikeon there’s often a little give before the clutch engages, would recommend getting it seen by someone who knows about free coasters

[@theofilosandonioy8546]

Why my pedals are going backwards when my bike does? How can i fix it

[@AirdBMX]

if your pedals are going backwards that means you have a cassette hub. If you dont want that to happen you are going to have to buy a freecoster hub

[@theofilosandonioy8546]

How much does it costs and what afr tbe deferences

[@AirdBMX]

you have to look at the different hubs for prices and for cassette you have to pedal backwards and freecoaster you don't

[@thiccboii5487]

How old are you?

[@jamesnester8637]

Still cant land it tho. I fucking suck.

[@rogerbravo5724]

Did you land it

Hope you learned to stfu by now

[@CruzitoHernandez-Z1]

No te entendi ni verga no se ingles

[@MrSad-my3xc]

I can’t exit a fakie to save my life

[@AirdBMX]

It is honestly one of the hardest things to learn how to do at first. Don't give up on it!

[@MrSad-my3xc]

Aird Bmx thank man I love your vids I even have just about the same bike lol and I don’t think it’s really hard for me to do it’s just mentally hard if you knwo what I mean

[@Filip-sp2vk]

@@AirdBMX Any tips on how to exit the fakie or is it just practice over and over? I am working on it like 10 days and I can fakie really good like 5,6 meters but cant exit it.

[@Unbelievable47]

@@Filip-sp2vk Took me 3 weeks to get it but I only just learned how to do it on a cassette earlier this month. On a cassette it took me about 5 hours total over a few weeks. Also the length & exit of fakie are two different things IMO. Try to work on the exit as soon as possible, that helped me a lot.

[@Filip-sp2vk]

@@Unbelievable47 I learned it two days ago!! So happy!
