How to play
- Hold the right side of the screen to throttle up — in the air this leans the bike back for backflips.
- Hold the left side to brake and reverse — in the air this tips the bike forward for front-flips.
- Keep the bike balanced over bumps and ramps so you land on both wheels.
- Plant the rider's head into the dirt and you crash, costing you one of your lives.
- Reach the finish, ride as far as you can, or stack up flips depending on the track.
Controls
Hold the right side (or Right/Up arrow) to accelerate and lean back; hold the left side (or Left/Down arrow) to brake and lean forward. Land on your wheels!
