[QUOTE="rajobigguy, post: 7112, member: 70"] If you stop the wheel rotation in mid air you lose the gyro effect of the wheel and the bike is only half as stable as with both turning. Depending on the attitude of the bike at the time the wheel stops turning it will have a tendency to picth forward or backwards (it also depends on wheather you're on or off the throttle at that moment). The other thing that can end being bad is that when the front whell touchs down it's not moving and must suddenly accelerate to the speed of the bike, or slow the bike down to meet it (think endo).
