Nice but you did that *with* a prehop. Try to get 20" just static from a still stand start, and seat in.

That's great for just getting started!
And since you're in Charlotte, try to get up to the mountain bike trails off Poplar Tent Rd. There is a trials section getting built at the trailhead for uni and bike trials.. check it out at: http://www.tarheeltrailblazers.com/c...num=1210936033
Find directions at:
