litte help?

I assume you haven't tried to hop before?

When I tried hopping first I looked at it like riding. I
balanced on something solid, stood up, grabbed under my
seat, and began to hop with one hand holding a post and
the other holding the seat. From there I just learned to
do it without holding anything. If you are going for a no
seated hop, just hold a post, slip the seat out from under
you, grab the seat with the other hand, and start hopping
(keep in mind this is the way I did it, and it probably
isn't the best)

On the idling aspect, I can't help you. I'm still learning
that myself!

For most people, hopping is pretty easy. You might want to
let some air out of your tire to make things happen
slower. Think of it like a pogo stick; it's mostly in your
ankles. The trick that makes it different from a pogo
stick is that you have to worry about keeping equal
pressure on each pedal.

Hopping took me maybe 15 minutes to get. Idling, I worked on
for months before I got it. I don't think there's much you
can do with idling other than work on it a lot. -Tom

thanks and good luck with the idle
