Before you try this one on a quarter pipe, try doing them out of a flyout first. Once you’re comfortable taking your hands off, have a go on a ramp. With this trick, the more air you get, the longer you hold the trick, the better it looks! It feels like you’re flying.
Tip: Use the left / right arrow keys
01
Height can help with old school no handers as hitting the ramp with a bit of speed will give you more time to take your hands off. Go with enough speed to do a comfortable air, but you don’t need to do the biggest air possible.
02
As you take off pull the bars back into your lap. You want to get in this position whilst you’re still on your way up.
03
As you can see in the photo, the bars are almost locked in position. Lean forward to stop the bars falling away. Before you take your hands off, get used to being in this position for a few airs. You can work up to taking your hands off by taking them off a little, or one hand at a time
04
When you come to the top of the air, throw your arms off. If you’re leaning over the front enough, with the bars locked in position, the bike shouldn’t move anywhere.
