Hey Unicyclers,
Can any of you help me find some extreme unicyclers (mountain, half-pipe,
jumps, handrail, etc.)? Ideally you should be over 18, have some video,
and live in the USA. This could be cool.
I’ve seen some amazing video, so I know you’re out there.
Please email me directly, and I’ll share more details.
Thanks, Viveca

Well I’d bet that you haven’t seen unicyclers to half-pipes or handrails.

Actually I broke my little finger 2 weeks ago playing in a skate-park on a
quater pipe. I was going for a new trick involving grinding on the frame -
Hopefully I’ll pull it off one day - as to hand-rails thats just a
“simple” pedal-grind surely?

I think I’ve seen Kris Holm (on my PC screen) riding on top of a handrail,
and a sloping one at that. And then of course you have gapping from one
handrail to another, which I know Kris and a bunch of other skilled riders
can do. I am far from that but I dream of it.

I’ll bet you find yourself on the floor on your head in the morning! 
BTW… I had forgotten about peddle grabs… I was picturing someone
sideskating down the handrail. hehe

What is “grinding”.

Errm… how to explain… basicly it’s a skateboard, bmx and
rollerbladeing term used to describe the action of using part of the
object other than the wheels to slide along a surface hence grinding -
hope that explains it. There’s a reason I diden’t do an English degree

OK, I see now. Skateboards sliding down a handrail of a stairway. BMX’ers
sliding their axle extensions on ledges, etc.
I’ve seen that on ESPN. Just didn’t know it was “grinding”. Thanks Joe.
