I was here a long time ago, and I’m quite sure no one remembers me. If you do, your brain must remember everything.
Anyways, I’ve gotten pretty good. I can do 180 unispins, jump off high stuff, ect, ect… But what’s really gotten me is the seat drop. I’ve been practicing for a long time. I just can’t get it, . I kinda learned on my own though. I read a few articles on how to do them, but I need something better, like a video. I did google, searched this forum (I used the search toolbar) and more, but found nada.
If there IS something out there please post it orr something. I’m pretty sure other n00bs ( ) would like some help on this to.
uumm i can give you some advice, but its not a tutorial;) . stand on your cranks and practice holding on to a fence. make sure your stronger foot is almost touching your spokes and then lower the seat till the frame is resting on your feet. then let go of the stable object your holding on to and try to stall for alittle while. at 1st i used to brace my left calf against my tire for support, while i held the frame w/my right. just do this till you’re feeling confdant doing it, then just keep trying till its natural. this took me about 5-10 min to learn so i think you might just be doing somthing wron. GOOD LUCK!!!

I can land about… 5 a day. I just am not that good. Heh’ I landed a trick I’ve never done. Although it’s quite easy. You know, you spin unicycle 90*, land on tire, hop off, spin uni 90* again and land on pedals. Pretty much a unispin. I forgot what the trick was called.
I guess I DID just start yesterday from a 5 month break. The winters are harsh here in MN… I’m sweating alot, XD. Yuck!
kind of stealing your thread slightly but I dont want to start a new thread, um any tips on how to hop on the tire? I can 180 and 360 unispin and would like to do a spin to tire, any tips or videos? or both?
I can do Seat drops now. About 6/10 tries (Kinda made that up, but accurate, ). I hopped up a picnic table (hopped on the seat part of it first), did a unispin into a seat drop hopped down. I spent awhile on the tables today.
I actually found some soccer (I think) shin gaurds. I did the same thing, smacked my shin, but it didn’t hurt. But these are small and tight. I will but new ones later in the summer. I grew 5 inches in 8 months .
Oh, and I think another problem I stink is that I have a torker CX. I need to get a trails uni soon. Only problem is, I am broke, and have no way to get money.
2nd go to ur local bike shop and they should have an account with 661 .if the do ask if the can orderm in a medium and large xlarge .then try them on .whatever fits u can buy
