I’m having a hard time finding a decent wheel walk or 1 ft ww tutorial with good explanations.
Can anyone post please post a link?
Also, what did you learn first, WW or 1 foot WW? It seems like most people think WW is easier, but so far 1 footed has seemed easier to me.
thanks a lot
sorry i dont have a link but wheel walking is definatly easier to learn than 1 foot ww. like most tricks its mostly down to practice, practice, practice.
the main points i remember finding useful was to sit up strait with your head up, and use the whole of your foot on the wheel, right from toe to heel.
to start with, practice with a wall, then start along a wall and continue away, then try from riding.
hope this helps,

This video has seemed to be the most helpful.
When I try to go into the wheel walk out of a left foot idle it seems easier than holding onto a wall.
Depending on the weather I could posibly film and make you a short vid, I will see how Im feeling and how bad my injurys are after my high speed downhill mountainboard accident.
I have a video of how NOT to wheel walk, because I’m still learning, but some of the comments people left are some tips, you can try watching my video
erm… try doing it up a slight hill, then you can get the pushing right without the uni rolling away from you [2 foot this is]. Once you can get a good distance forward then you fall sideways, try turning as if you would with your feet on the pedals, to stay up.
Maybe also ride at a slow steady pace then make the transition into WW as then you have your balance already, rather than having to start from still and push off a wall which will offen overbalance you anyway.
Sorry it isnt dedicated, but I do some WW and 1 foot WW in this video if you have some spare time to check it out:

ducttape i think you’re doing alright. after practicing you will realise that you always fall forwards and therefore need to lean further back. its scary at first how far you have to lean back but once you fall backwards a few times you wil work out where you need to be.
yeah I’m doing better now, I’ve been practiceing WW and 1-footed riding and am getting both of them down better.
I have started making one, I have the footage but havnt started editing. Im going away for a few days but I will try and edit it and finish it as soon as I can.
