Your Favorite Trick!

I dont think this is anywhere else. I searched for it.

Just post your favorite trick, weather it is one that you can do, or you have seen someone do. Street, Flatland, Freestyle, whatever.

Just describe it if it isn't a common trick.


One of my favorite tricks is the sideways wheel walk. It just looks so attractive the way it can be used in variations with many other tricks. Luke Collalto is responsible for this being my favorite trick. :P


So yea, post your favorite tricks!

Make people(mostly kids) believe I remove my thumb from my hand. Then pop it back on. That's my favorite trick.

unicycling: no footer

other: telling someone that it's impossible to balance a glass of water on the backs of both of their hands, then helping them attempt it.

My favourite trick that I can do is gliding, or Coasting.

My favourite trick that I can't do yet, is probably stand up gliding.

I love crankflips and stuff like that too, but stand up gliding is probably one of the most impressive tricks to me, and it is something you can do very easily while still rolling and not losing too much speed.

If you ride a Coker too closely behind Tom Blackwood he invariably UPD's. Check his sig line. My favorite trick is not running over him.

Coasting whilst standing on top of the seat. I thought it was impossible until I saw it on Youtube.

tweaking out a 180 over a big gap. That and 360's over gaps are sick

I'm a fan of no footers with a late 180.

You jump up doing the no footer and when you reach the highest point slap your feet back down and tweak out the 180 as you come down.

Freestyle - Standup wheelwalking, spins, sideways ww.

Street - 180 no footers, handrails, hickflips.

Flat - probably like 2,3,4 leg arounds and then pull of a trick out of the legaround, I think combos are really cool. Static combos. and sideways ww.

Ohhh and i cant do any of those...

Ones that I can do are probably 1 footed unispins and double leg arounds and i am really close to sideways wheelwalking.
