Unicycle Tricks Compared To Skateboarding Tricks

talkin about the sex change in “any artists here” thread got me thinkin,

there seems to be some relevance with skate tricks and uni tricks, and wat tricks compare to what uni tricks!!

like the uni hop is like an ollie, and i think the crankflip is like a kickflip!

what other tricks do u think r similar to skateboarding tricks?

for example: Crankflip ---- Kickflip

no need for links tho :stuck_out_tongue: hehe unless u want them

Grinding <-> Grinding

Any skateboard stall <-> Pedal/Crank Grab

Body Varial <-> Body Varial

Shove-it* <-> Unispin

*I’m not completely sure what a shove-it looks like so I’m not sure on that one.

if you havent noticed, shaun names almost all of the unicycle tricks after skateboarding tricks. so most of the flipping tricks are also skateboarding tricks.

Kickflips are easy crankflips are waaay hard

You are right about the shove-it. I want to add
180 flip = 180 flip
casper (as a manual) = seat push/drag.
indy = tire grab
If we are doing this proper though we should also be using BMX names
Saran wrap = seat wrap (not sure about the uni name)
Decade = body varial
Manual = one foot
Also, no offense but I would bet this thread has been done a few times already.

manual = coasting
