What to learn?
carmella wrote: Hi unicyclists! I'm learning unicycling for 2 months and I want to know jump on a bench in park but I don't know how ...Is there anyone, who can help me how to start? Lol you wanna hurry up huh you have to work your way up. First practice on curbs like said above or pallets and just slowing increase your height until you can get that high. Just so ya know getting up to the height of a bench will take some time more than a couple months... well for most.... Anyways good luck with it and most importantly have fun! -- wickedbob I am a bad speller!

I thought hopping was all about leg muscle, but actually, you get higher hopping over time, and you'll leg muscles will grow, just most ppl arnt used to using those muscles in those ways, so they take time to develope. -- CKCrowe 1-5 Hours a day-Treyflip-next-Hickfakieflip Unicycler for Christ.

For me learning to ride backwards was harder than learning to ride forward. It is just so unatural pedaling backwards at first. There is only one way to do it and that is the brut force way. I would just get on the Unicycle by holding onto a post and try to ride away from it. After a few weeks you will get the hang of it! I can now ride backwards for as long as I want on dirt roads. (As long as they don't have HUGE pot holes.) I am going to start working on going down stairs backwards soon. Being able to ride backwards really helped my MUni riding and immediatele led to Idling.

So when you can hop at one place, you just have to ride to an object, start hopping and hop over/on it? -- valkyrion ------------------------------------------------------------------------ valkyrion's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/15049 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/61214 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

kington99 wrote: First off can you idle? Backwards is one of the few tricks I actually put the time in to learning over a short period of time. I think the best technique is to ride forward, stop and idle once then continue fowards. Then try to turn that idle in to a single revolution backwards, then ride out forward again. Increase the number of backwards revolutions you can do before having to ride forward again to regain balance. Once it's up to several turns then maybe switch to just trying to start riding backwards from stationary. I'm going to try this. -- Unibugg Into the blue wrote: You should see this fella ride up kerbs. He makes it look annoyingly easy.
