Stoppie 180, by Duke (French champion) during the Stunt Bike Show, in Carole Racetrack

The stoppie is a motorcycle and bicycle trick in which the back wheel is lifted by abruptly applying the front brake, then, by carefully reducing the brake pressure, the bike is ridden for a short distance on the front wheel. It is also called an endo,[1] a nose manual,[2] or less commonly, a front wheelie.
