Today I... (brag thread)
Those skills are worth bragging about. cool! Me, after a few months of little riding due to winter weather, I've been getting out again. My brag is that although I've lost some endurance, my skills from last year are still intact. I know it's not much of a brag, but I'm glad not to be losing ground. -- Chrashing Regards, Ken ... a recreational unicyclist...

fuolornis wrote: So, I think it would be pretty cool if there was a thread here for people to brag about the tricks they've just learned or the height/length they've just hopped without having to make a new thread. I'll start. Yesterday, I transitioned from one-foot riding to one-foot idling and back again for the first time, I seat-out hopped up a curb and rode off for the first time, I came closer to a suicide mount than ever before (I can do the jump onto the pedals, but only if I hold onto the seat), and I went in a backwards circle with a smaller radius than ever before. So, did you pick up a new trick today? Finally make that six-foot static side hop? UPD for a stupid reason? Post here! Nice going Eric! You'll have to show me those new tricks when we ride this Tuesday! Well I just got back from Moab Muni fest, and I kinda learned something new. A film crew from Mountain Dew was there filming a lot of us and asked me if I could/would hop down a ledge at a skatepark that was hihger than I've *ever* hopped...so naturally i said yes! I was pretty scared but tried not to show it as I side hopped about 4.5 feet down, and landed it first try! Whew! Other than that both Eric and I learned recently to mount to one-foot pedalling both from pedal to crown and then mounting first with one foot on the crown directly to one-foot pedalling. cool! -- MuniAddict "On Earth it would be...12 noon" (Twilight zone episode, "To serve man.")

I rode my skinniest skinny today. I put down 3 star pickets end to end and rode along them. They're about 4mm wide. I feel special. Edit: Oh, I also hit a 6ft gap SIF for the first time without not failing at it. It was 2 concrete slabs with grass in between them. -- mawesome MrBoogiejuice wrote: I walked into B&Q at lunchtime and some old guy dressed in orange asked me if I wanted decking.

The other week me and Andrew Carter went to a bike trials comp. After it we both spent about 30min to an hour practising riding a really skinny cable, we both mananged to get to the end, it was about 3 or 4m long and wobbled like crazy -- tomtrevor 01010100 01101111 01101101 00100000 01010100 01110010 01100101 01110110 01101111 01110010 'KEEPIN' IT WHEEL' (www.mediahug.com/bikes) WHEEL WALK ON WATER BLUEGREENORANGEBLACKPURPLEREDWHITEYELLOW Thanks to my sponsers: my mum 'g' (http://www.google.com.au/)'o' (http://www.google.com.br/)'o' (http://www.google.co.uk/)'g' (http://www.google.com.ni/)'l' (http://www.google.to/)'i' (http://www.google.ch/)'n' (http://www.google.com.mt/)'g' (http://www.google.com.na/)'s' (http://www.google.rw/)'!'

Hey, I'm new here, and while not new to unicycling by any means, besides MUNI I've just recently started trying to better my unicycling self. Recently I learned to jump on instead of just free mounting as I've done for years. God willing I'll have a teaching job coming this fall, and I want to start a club where ever I end up, so I want to learn enough to be able to teach students exactly what they need to do to succeed. What do you think should be next? I kinda want to learn the whole, jumping off the pedals, onto the wheel, and hopping, it seems within my current abilities, I've just never tried. Any tips would be great. -- bikemaniac22 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bikemaniac22's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/14948 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/59184 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- ** SPEED ** RETENTION ** COMPLETION ** ANONYMITY ** ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

I FINALLY learned to freemount correctly. With the pedals at 3 and 9 instead of 6 and 12 which I had been trying on a slope. I had gotten OK at the 6 and 12 but can't believe how much easier it is to do it the correct way. I learned from my son, it is all in shifting your weight. Now I need to learn to hop.
