Having just 5 riders for each category is just for the sake of simplicity, otherwise the list would be 10 times as long and impossible to finish with all the details.

In relative terms, quite true I'm sure.

The other day I was riding my KH trials near downtown with a friend of mine. We came upon a huge crowd of kids (fifty or more 12-16 year olds) with some adult chaperones. Evidently, they had been in the area for some type of event. Anyway, they all started cheering and clapping for us. The sidewalk was narrow so they parted like the Red Sea to give us room.

My friend, who makes a living juggling in front of crowds, can ride and juggle at the same time, but he doesn't hop at all. So, he dismounted to get up the curb. I pulled up behind him and hopped in place for a while, then side hopped up and over the curb. The crowd went wild!! Later on my friend told me that with most kids, just the fact that you can ride a Uni makes you the best they have ever seen. The fact that I could hop that tiny curb made me an "Elite" rider in their eyes. Most of the general public in my area has never heard of Kris Holm or Muni.
