I just wanted to let everyone know that I learned to ride one-footed today! I never thought I would be able to do it, but after seeing my friend attempt it a few times a get close, I knew I could. So, after little more than an hour of practice I was able to ride one-footed for about a hundred feet consistently. I can kinda turn a bit, too. I feel so good.
Awesomeliness!!! Riding one footed is fun. My friends and I had contests to see how many revolutions we could do, but decided to give up after reaching 400.
It’s really fun to ride one footed in a tight circle, and make the non footed pedal hit the ground. Except it could mess up your pedal, and make you lose control.
Congrat’s!
I remember after a few days of practice, I could suddenly do it. I don’t know what clicked. Now learn wheelwalking.
Re: i learned to one-foot today!!!
congrats!
as soon as i’m allowed to ride again, i’ll hope to join the one-footed ranks
Cool,
congrats
It is one of the hardest things to learn, as it is usually one of the first tricks to learn.
Now try with your other foot!
Well done,
Joe,
Hmm… perhaps I should try with my other foot. My friend who I have taught to ride recently (well, he mostly learned it himself, but I was there to give instructions) is getting the one-footed thing down, too. He can do 2 or 3 revolutions before falling off. I think as soon as I’m off the internet here I’m gonna try with my left foot. I hope to get some vids of it, too.
one wheel + 1 foot = mega-, ultra-, and über-fun!
I’ve decided to learn how to glide, but since I’m always used to taking the bad foot off the pedal first because of one footed I’m learning to ride one footed with the other foot. It’s a lot easier to learn this than the other foot, because you already know what it’s supposed to feel like.
And when I’m commuting, I like to ride one footed just because. It almost seems like I can go faster one footed. But if I always use my left foot pedaling, then eventually my left leg will be stronger than my right so I’ll walk in circles.
walking in circles is one thing
thinking in circles is another
when u find yourself thinking in circles, just think in smaller circles and eventulayy u will come to the point
