A stall, in which you keep balance on the rear peg with your bike parallel to the edge.
How do it
The ice pick stall, in which you don't grind, but just stand and balance on the rear peg. This trick is performed by riding up perpendicular to a ledge, from a bank or other element. Jump, turn your bike 90 degrees and go into an ice pick. Now hold your balance and jump back down.
1.
Ride onto a bank, perpendicular to the ledge. Do a bunny hop and turn the bike 90 degrees in the air, raising your front wheel to land on the rear peg.
2.
Slightly push the bike towards the ledge and keep your body over the bank, so that you don't fall towards the ledge. Once you land on the rear peg, tense up your arms and bend your knees, shifting all of your weight backward.
3.
Try to balance on the peg by bending and straightening your legs, just like when doing a manual. Balance for some time, then pull the bike towards the bank with your hands, begin turning your body and do a small bunny hop to exit.
