wheelwalking: the real thing

I’ve been riding since October, 2003, and I really want to know what wheelwalking is. If you know, please inform me. Also, if possible, how do you do it?

Here’s a description of wheel walking at unicycling.org: Wheel Walking.

A video of someone wheel walking would also help explain the concept in ways that static pictures and big words cannot. Anyone have a good short clip that demonstrates wheel walking with good form?

www.unicycle.2ya.com has some tips but no video yet of wheel walking.

I seem to remember that somewhere on one of John Foss’s galleries, he has a short clip of Nathan and Beau Hoover racing down a set of stairs. At the bottom, Beau switches over to a quick wheel walk to the finish line.

I don’t know how to search for galleries, other than paging through. Perhaps John will toss an assist here.

wheel walking is just walking on the wheel to make it go (you push backwards (with your feet) on the top of the wheel and it goes forward)

i have wheel walks in some of my movies… check out my gallery below, the ones at the end will have more wheel walks.

I actually push forward on the top of the wheel. Save backwards for later! :slight_smile:

to find a person’s gallery all u have to do is search for their name in the gallery section
