I've seen that trick, but this guy just rides for a long time on it.
Looks like his leg is touching the wheel, but actually it rides
smooth😕

i have done it on bent plates. you can control it if you are careful
enough.

And Practice. Lots and you will get better.

Today i hit 30km/h on my nimbus 29er with 125mm cranks.

Could i get shorter cranks (like 110s) or would this make it too hard
to ride??

Thanks, man🙂
The next one is the quick 180° spin while riding and then continuing
backwards.

But, of course, I have to practice the skate mount for a while, it's
still not perfect

my turn... today I went to a local park and rode the trails they have
there and the boardwalk. I had a lot of fun. I am going to start
wearing a helmet soon, riding over exposed roots made it hard to keep
on the seat but I did it.

110's shouldn't make it too much harder unless you live around a lot of
hills....

Where do you have the "pin" from the axle? Is it above the middle of the
foot, or 1/3 or 3/4? I have it on the middle, but it hurts so much
after a day of training, because it rubs my ankle. But if I put me foot
back for a bit, it feels weird

Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere. If you can ride where you
are going within a hour, do it, and if you can do a trick 50-75% of the
time do it along the way.
Parafrasing a pro skater when asked for advise to kids who wanted to
get much better and maybee turn pro one day.
