brad, just a little tip, quit the SMS talk.
am not a pro, but you can get info from biketrials.com. and then we have a local site: pinoytrials.the-talk.net. most of the members here who do trials and urban assault also log in there.
am not an expert but....as for the 180's put your weight farther back. in theory, your pivot should be the rear wheel. so you have to put your weight a little more to the rear.

zyrextabares - brad newbie here also if you're referring to the 180 front pivot, just cruise along, make an endo, turn your wheel to the right if you're going left or turn front wheel to the left if you're pivoting right. then lift your rear wheel to the direction you desired by shifting your body weight..hope I explained it clear make sure you lifted your rear tire on the exact height so you can land on your desired angle...If you're short, push your handle bar more to have a better roll of the front tire If you're referring to 180 rear wheel pivot, make a trackstand, lean you're body parallel to the direction of the bike. Let's say you're pivoting left, you're body should be on the left side of the bike, and the bike's front wheel direction should be pointed to the right. this is your pre load. Then in one massive pull, get your handle bar to the left direction. With the help of the pedal, punch it slowly to help you pull to the exact height towards your desired direction. As this goes your body weight should shift to your balance point so you won't fumble. (I'm not good at this move myself so I hope I helped the key is practice, don't exaggerate the move until you perfect it.. Practice makes permanent, so practice right ride with us sometime.

Zyrex - I can't do the 180 rear pivot...I can only do 90-120...I think I need to practice more to do it...I loose balance if I exaggerate the move...Needs more practice for me..hehehe
Let's ride sometime...hands ons are much better teacher than keyboard hehehe

Ah the bunnyhoping 180, according to Aaron Chase you have to turn the front tire a bit before pulling on the bars. A mere 30 degrees on the turn will do a lot of help.
I will look up the youtube link for you ...

Zyrex,
This may help: look where you're going.
You can't turn right if you're looking to the left.

Looking in the different direction will actually lessen the angle you turn.
