50 BMX Tricks For Beginners (In Order/How To/Step By Step) – BMX Time

Welcome aboard! Here you’ll find a how-to list for your first BMX tricks, which I tried to put in order. This is the first part of the trilogy, which continues with the intermediate tricks and then with the advanced tricks.

Before jumping into the list, a couple of disclaimers:

We all have different skills, thus, the exact level of difficulty you give to each trick will most likely differ from the one I choose for them. However, to make it as realistic as possible I did this ranking taking into account a bit of my experience but mostly the general notion/consensus of how hard each trick seems to the average BMX rider.

As for the order, I avoided mixing the land tricks with the air tricks. I put the ground tricks first and the air tricks at the end because I think it makes more sense to acquire total control of your movements and balance on the ground before taking bigger risks trying them 10 feet up in the air.

Also, there are some particular cases, like the Bunny Hop. It’s listed #4 here and, again, you may find other tricks further down the list that you feel are way easier than the Bunny Hop, however, it appears #4 as it’s a fundamental trick that you’ll really need to get familiar with to be able to nail a lot of other tricks.

Without further ado, here they are. Put on your helmet and pads… and enjoy!

Grab the Owner's Mind is to Grab Your Tire Business

As the saying goes, the start is good, but this order can't run. How to communicate with customers in the first sentence? If your employees and customers they're reaching out to ask, "Is there anything I can do for you?", there's a good chance your store will lose that business.

In fact, the clerk should ask the customer: "How did you come here today?" But few people will ask. If you can show customers that you care about why they come to the store to do business with you and not just get a single tyre business from them, then you can keep those customers and build a lasting relationship with them! They will also consider going to your tyre store before they consider going to another store.

Ⅰ. Do you know why they choose your tyre shop?

Everything that happens in the tyre sales process stems from an interaction between two people, and as a shop owner, you have to consider what happens to the owner's psychology throughout the process—fear, uncertainty, and doubt.

Fear of tyre failure will drive customers to the tyre shop, but they can't be sure your shop is the best place to go, they'll also be suspicious of workers doing repairs, and you might think it's a friendly deal.

But never underestimate the various concerns that every customer who enters your store will have about your business. For example, the quality of your tyres is too hard? Is your price reasonable? Will it cost me money? Will the waiting process be long?

In order to help customers dispel their concerns and provide what they really need, it is recommended that tyre manufacturers adopt a four-step sales method, namely: preparation before communication, communication, warm advice, and appropriate adjustment.

Ⅱ. How to sell tyres?

1. Preparation before communication

In this step, the clerk needs to get to know each other with the customer. The tyre manufacturer can look through the store records and confirm that the customer has come by the date or service work mentioned, which is also the first step in creating the conditions of communication and getting what the customer really wants.

2. Communication

Without this step, you have no chance to sell other accessory products and services, and nine times out of ten, customers will not know everything you sell. If they realize that you have these services, they will have the opportunity to do business with you.

This process generally only takes half a minute to a minute. When a customer comes to the store and says to change the tyre, you also need to ask if there are other problems with the car, which can be more conducive to the promotion of your product and service projects, and you will find that you have a lot of business.

3. Warm suggestions

It is a "negotiation" to suggest that the client has a lot to do for him or her and to make them aware that they may not want to spend more money to do it, but it has to be.

This process leads to the fourth step: making the right adjustments so that the business closes. Wouldn't it be better than just asking customers to buy four tyres? You can also spend more time in the communication process.

Usually customers come to our tyre shop for the first time, and they will have a skeptical attitude in their hearts. If a tyre manufacturer wants to win this single transaction, the first step is to dispel the skepticism of the car owner as much as possible and establish a relationship of trust, so that your business will become more and more prosperous.

5.4. Tire Capture Cycle.

Any external board installed in [8/16] slot, can become a master on the ISA bus. capture tires external board must start from signal resolution DRQ channel DMA, pre-programmed to cascade mode. PDP channel, programmed in cascade mode, considers that all RAP cycles have been completed external resource - in this case external board. The RAP controller responds external board signal resolution -DACK; external board in response to -DACK allows -MASTER signal. After signal resolution -MASTER external board must wait for some time after which he can begin his access cycles.

6. DMA controller.

Controller direct memory access (DMA, DMA - direct Memory Access) provides high-speed data exchange between devices I/O and RAM without using central processor, which frees up the processor for execution computing in parallel with the exchange and regardless of him. Most often RAP capabilities are used when work with disk drives, however implemented the use of RAP adapters drives on magnetic tape and a number of others devices. Tangible advantage comes from the use of RAP in exchange process with devices, receiving or transmitting data enough big batches at high speed.

B IBM PC-like computers features PDP controller performs 8237A chip from INTEL (Soviet analogue KR580VT57) or its 8237A-4 and 8237A-5 counterparts operating With clock frequency 4 and 5 MHz, respectively (standard chip 8237A operates at a frequency of 3 MHz). Controller has 4 independent channels, each of which serve one peripheral device.

6.1. Principles of operation of the PDP controller.

B 2 main cycles are distinguished in the work of the RAP: wait loop (Idle cycle) and the active cycle (Active cycle). Each cycle subdivided into a number of states occupying time alone period hours (tic). From the controller wait loop may be translated to the programming state (Program Condition) by filing to the RESET input of a high level signal, duration not less 300 ns followed by a signal low level (level 0) to the CS (Chip Select) pin. Able programming the controller will stays until the output CS the signal will remain low. AT programming process controller set:

- the starting address of the memory to exchange;

- reduced by one the number of transmitted bytes;

- exchange direction,

a the required modes are also set work (allow or ban cyclic change of priorities, auto-initialization, ask direction of address change during exchange etc.). Loading 16-bit controller registers carried out through 8-bit I/O ports. Before loading the first (junior) byte must be reset (cleared) latch trigger (trigger first/last, First/Last flip-flop), which the changes its state after output to the port first byte and so thus enabling the following output command to that same port load high byte corresponding register.

Programmed the channel must be unmasked (bit masks channel is set to 0) after which he can accept signals "Request for RAP", generated by that external device, which is served through this channel. Signal "Request on the RAP" can also be initiated setting to 1 bit request this channel in the request register controller. After appearance request signal controller enters active cycle, which data is being exchanged. Exchange can carried out in one of four modes:

1. Single Transfer Mode (Signle Transfer mode). After everyone transfer cycle controller releases processor bus, but starts checking signals immediately request and as soon as discovers active request signal, initiates next cycle transmission.

2. Block Transfer Mode. In that mode the presence of a request signal is required just until the moment extradition signal controller "Confirmation request for RAP" (DACK) after which the tire is not released until to completion transmission the entire block.

3. Demand transfer mode transfer mode). The mode is intermediate between the first two: broadcast goes on continuously until active signal request, whose status is checked after each cycle transmission. As soon as the device cannot continue transmission, signal the request is reset by it and the controller suspends work. This mode is used to exchange with slow devices, not allowing for their temporary characteristics work with DAP in block transmission mode.

4. Cascade Mode. The mode allows you to enable in subsystem RAP more than one controller in cases where not enough four PDP channels. In this mode, one from channels leading controller is used for cascading with controller second level. To work in cascade HRQ signal ("Request capture") of the slave controller applied to the DRQ input ("Request to the DMA channel") of the master, and the DACK signal ("Confirmation request") the master is fed to the HDLA input ("Confirmation capture") slave. Such connection diagram is similar connecting a master (first) controller to microprocessor, with whom he exchanged HRQ and HDLA signals.
