GUIDANCE COUNCELOR
Hey guys what’s up? My names Bretton, I read your mag all the time, it’s the best! My friend and me found this rail and took it back to my house and finally started grinding. I’ve been riding for 8 months and I can bunny hop about 13 inches and I was wondering if you could give some pointers on any park of street tricks, preferably 180’s. Thanks. (P.S. Daniel Dhers is my favorite rider I’m his number one fan and he crushed everybody at the X-games) Peace!

“WIPING” OUT ON BUNNYHOPS
Hi, I’m Nicholas Piparo and I’m 12 years old. I just started BMXing about 8 months ago and my parents bought me a 2011 Kink Curb. I was wondering if you thought this is a durable and light beginner BMX bike? I also am a very suckish “J-HOPPER” or “BUNNY-HOPPER.” I can’t get higher than maybe a roll of toilet paper. I was also wondering if you could give me any tips on doing “J-HOPS.” Keep on with your skillz! Thanks!

SEALED BEARINGS FOR 1-PIECE CRANKS
Dear BMXperts,
Hey, my name is Nick, I’m 17 and I live in Minnesota. Just bought a Stolen Riot and it came with a one-piece crank and unsealed bearings. I am wondering if it is possible to put sealed bearings in it, and if that is something I could do or would I need to bring it in to a shop. Thanks

WHEELIE HOPS
Hi,
My name is Diego, I am 10 years old and I just can’t seem to do a bunny hop. I can do a wheelie and turn my wheel when I am up in the air, but that does not seem like much. BMXing is my favorite thing to do and I would like to get better. Thanks.

DRIVERS WANTED
Dear BMXperts,
First off, my name is Brandon, I’m 13 and I’ve been riding for 3 years! I love the mag, but I have one question about drivers. I have a 2010 Fit Prk 1 that needs a new driver and I was wondering what kind of driver to get. I don’t know what to get because I can’t find any drivers that Fit made for my bike. Great job on the mag keep up the good work.

NAVIGATING THE PARK
Dear BMXperts
I was wondering how to get more air coming out of a quarter pipe and how to roll over a spine when it’s on an angle or triangle shape?
Thanks for reading and hopefully answering my question.

MAKING FUN OF SCOOTERS
Hi I’m “Bubbles” (changed to protect the identity of the writer) and I am 12 years old. I don’t BMX but I love the mag. . I scooter and I hate when people make fun of me for no reason, just for scootering. I think it’s about the same as BMX. I am a very small dude, so it’s hard for me to ride BMX because I don’t have much muscle for it. I do love to ride on dirt tracks and in the marsh and stuff but I can’t do any tricks. I think you should put a section of tips and tricks for scooters in the magazine. Thanks alot –“Bubbles”

ABA RANDOM GATES
Dear BMXperts
I am a racer and I have heard that the ABA will be going with the random start cadence for all classes in a year or something like that. Does his mean I am going to have to relearn my gates? Why should I have to change, I am not a Pro nor am I going to the Olympics. I am 28 and could use one less headache in life.

SWAPPING A DETANGLER FOR A STRAIGHT CABLE
Hey BMXperts,
I have a detangler on my bike and I was wonder if I could remove it and use a single cable as my brake cable, and have my brakes still work? Also, do brakes work better with a gyro or no gyro?
