Rolling hop help.
Thanks for all the advice. I need to try to get my feet horizontal I think at first to get some height, then I'll concentrate on hitting things at different trajectories. I can hop a curb approaching from an angle or straight on, just not every time, I do more of a 'lift' than a hop if you know what I mean, and if the curb is more then 3 or 4 inches there is no guarantee I'll make it, the tyre will often catch the edge of the curb. Do you actually momentarily stop the uni wheel when you take off, with the momentum being carried forward by your body, or is the idea for the wheel to be moving all the time?

Rolling hop help.
when i jump i do either. i can rolling hop and keep the wheel still so i land in the same position, or i can keep pedalling so the wheel keeps going and i land in a different position. when i dont roll i tend to skid a bit upon impact. -- iridemymuni munipsycho wrote: Just a bit of advice: never vomit while wearing a full-face helmet. guess what !
