Funky Chicken

Beginner

An essential scuffing trick, and you can even roll these.  From a fork ride, step over the bars with one leg so you are straddling the handlebars.  The the leg that's over the bars, start scuffing.  At the same time you hold the seat, lifting the backend into the air.  It doesn't matter which hand you hold the seat with, but you should learn to hold it with both hands once the trick is dialed.  To land it, simply drop the back end, and let it swing around (smoothie).  There are other ways to get in and out of this, and most advanced riders use this trick as a linking trick.  Very similar to Wheelchairs and Elephant Glides, except positioning is different.  Many riders link out of this by going into a Steam Roller, or into a Crackpacker.  In this video, Tim and Mike show different ways to get into, and out of it, and one way to link from it.
