Not sure what this poll is about? Read all about it here: --------------- Squeakers: Squeakers are a trick that just about purely comes down to balance. As such, it can often be found that some people just get it, while others may have to practise for a lot longer to get it consistently. To do a squeaker, the rider rolls forward at a slow pace, sticks the front brake on and goes into an endo. As this happens, the rider either puts one foot onto the front peg, or places the foot on the front wheel in between the gap in the forks and the frame. As the bike wants to fall back to the ground, the rider then uses the other foot to scuff the front tyre, rolling backwards and bringing the bike back up into a high endo. Each time the back begins to fall back to the ground, the rider scuffs the tyre, continuing to roll backwards. Side Squeakers: Side squeakers are quite similar to normal squeakers, but wether these are harder or easier can be debated. To do a side squeaker, the rider positions himself on one side of the back (one foot each on back and front pegs on one side of the bike), and goes into an endo the same as a squeaker, but as the back comes up, the rider holds onto the seat as well. They then continue to travel in circles while scuffing backwards, as opposed to the straight lines that squeakers normally go in.

Squeakers are my all time fav trick to do. I havent worked on many variations of them though. I generally will do them off my pedal and either in circles or straight lines. Sides sqeaks have always given me problems. I have been trying them off and on for many years with little success. I think a variation of the squeker I would like to do more often is the Two footed squeaker. I always seem to get my left foot mixed up with my right and things never go correctly...HAHAHA
