Bode Miller rides a unicycle
I think lots of skiers unicycle to help there balance. I've definitely inproved this season at skiing, not sure how much unicycling helped though. I wasn't unicycling last ski season. And 2 of the ski instructors up at the mountain I ski at can unicycle, they learnt to help there balance. One of them used to be a top swiss racer.

Bode Miller rides a unicycle
Ingemar Stenmark (not sure if that's spelled right) was written up in the USA's Newsletter in the late 70s. The article includes pictures of Jack Halpern giving him a new unicycle, and him riding it. Not exactly a testimonial, but another famous skier. I ski occasionally, but not well enough to provide a meaningful testimonial. All I know is that the two sports have a lot in common in terms of muscle groups used, as well as dynamic, or full-body balance and movement needed to maximize results. -- johnfoss John Foss Email: "jfoss" at "unicycling.com" -- www.unicycling.com ----------------------------------------------- "False facts are frequently formed from figures fabricated from fear fired fiction." -- Harper ------------------------------------------------------------------------ johnfoss's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/832 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/49781 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Bode Miller rides a unicycle
I seem to have always had good balance in sports, I think mostly due to unicycling at an early age. MTBers were always amazed how I was able to stay upright and run out a crash off a bike. Skiing too, I have pulled off some amazing saves due to balance. Unicycling this past season will definitely help more in the fitness department. I feel stronger going into the season this year than I have in the last couple. Loveland opens in less than two weeks!! Woo effin Hoo!! -- Bondo Apply Directly to a Unicycle.

Bode Miller rides a unicycle
To really good leg workout Bode should ride an UW instead of pushing that roller My years of skiing, snowboarding, skateboarding, & inline prob helped a tad mentally w/ learning to uni. Zero physical - it'd been years since I'd done any + the paralysis from breaking my back (thighs & core still work). -- skilewis74 Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere.
