Trials unicycling – Maneuvering up, down, and/or across obstacles
using hops, drops, and balance moves. The objective in trials is to get
from one challenging place to another in any way possible, without any
fancy tricks involved.
Freestyle: Done on smooth flat ground, the objective is to perform
tricks or skill sets without using any obstcles or props.
(I think the term freestyle is a bit outdated.)
Street: Think of it as BMX or skateboarding on a unicycle. You use
obstacles such as stairs, ledges, curbs, etc. to do tricks. The main
objective is not just to get up or over the obstacle, but to use the
obstacle for the trick.
~Of course, there's some overlap between these types of riding, as
usual. But you get the general idea. Hope that clears things up for you!
