i literally cannot manual.

not sure how to flair this.

i am suffering.

literally.

also the bike in the photo has brakes now.

im 6'1.

a few weeks ago i finally got over the fear of looping out. at this point ive done it multiple hundred times (definitely atleast 400) and i have absolutely nothing else to do. no school and no work for a while, and ive been pouring every ounce of my sanity and time into learning this. i even got new brakes to try and see if it would make it easier.

i literally cannot do it. every single time i either fall to the side, get a weird positioning with the pedals where one is lower and it messes me up, or i just dont pull it up far enough, (not out of fear at all, but by accident.) or, obviously i loop out. im very good at looping out but ive done it so much im starting to loose hope.

im making absolutely 0 progress. i cant even consistently hold it up for even a second sometimes and sometimes i can do it for like a second. but i have zero skill at it at all. like its literally just impossible for me and im working so hard i literally have blisters on my hands from doing it so much.

im frying my brain. my only goal is to learn how to manual and then wheelie for fun, i dont wanna do anything else. ive even tried just wheelieing and im still terrible at it and cant hold it up. i just dont get how people even balance it makes zero sense and i cannot do it but im determined. im thinking of giving up until i get a 29".
