the only hard part is landing the ****-ers, I never have enough room in my garage. :(

hitch hikers are from easy, halfhikers are kinda easy from fork wheelies as said, but hitch hikers no :P

i reccommend to try backwards half hikers. if you can do b/w steamrollers with ease then b/w half hikers are easy to get in but it takes practise to stay in the half hiker position for a while. landing isn't that hard too just reverse the getting in part. never tried hitch hikers though.

when i do them im going too slow and dont roll long enough, i just throw the seat and grab the peg to get into the hiker, sometimes i can hold it sometimes that throw makes me fall, sometimes i dont catch the peg.

i think getting out of a bw halfhkr is easy, i just bring the frame to about 90* and put the tire on the gr\ound and it straighens itself out, now a fw one is diffrent
