If you have adjustable dropouts, scoot your axle up to the front to effectively shorten the chainstays. This will make it easier. And please be sure you're wearing a helmet and elbow pads.
Once you get your balance point, the trick is in keeping yourself there. To get started, you have to get used to throwing your weight back while you pull up....straightening your knees quickly helps but be ready to flex them for balance right away. You can also try pulling up while you drop off a curb.....it gives you a little boost.
Just keep at it.....some people never get it. I kinda suck, but I've had a few where it came together and it was awesome!
hat happens when you take three or four unknown but amazing street riders, throw'em in a van, drive 'em to Greenville, North Carolina to hang out with some of the most known names in BMX? What happens if those BMX names go ride and hang out with those street riders on their turf? This isn't the X-Games, this isn't your average video, this is the Flipside.

How can i get my photos noticed by professionals?
Hey, I'm a 14 year old aspiring photographer. I've been taking pictures for about a year, but I want people to notice them, like magazine editors or museum curators. I was just wondering if anybody knew any good ways of getting my work noticed. Thanks Alot!

Tell me what you think.
(please don't tell me I'm too young. i have a 15 year old friend who has shots in 3 issues of RIDE BMX magazine.)
Well, you can start participating in forums, start posting in more groups, and more importantly, contact people in the area for advice. I'm sure there are some photographers in your area that you could contact. You can email and try to talk to other pro photographers online as well.
I'm having a bit of trouble in the same situation myself ^^'.
A word about your photography: your action shots could do with some post-processing. They look a little too soft (color wise) for the subject that you are shooting. Otherwise, they are quite fantastic shots, and I prefer them over your B/W photos.
