I totally misread this and thought you were asking for people to help
you move.
Er..sorry, I don't know how to do that, but it looks cool!

looks to me more like a one footed 270 unispin...as in, a 270 unispin,
but you land on one foot rather than two. so I think the logical
learning progression would be learn a 270 unispin, and then eventually
learn to do it but land just on one foot.

Its only a 180, but I cant really help you learn the trick as I cant do
it myself, although I think I'll pratice it once I get my uni back
together.

try jumping up to the tire like that without the spin first. Once that
gets easy, throw in a unispin.

well, yeah, it's only 180...but you land with your foot on the tire
AFTEr 180 degrees, which is comparable to a 270 unispin. I think that
learning a 270 unispin, and then learning it one footed, then learning
to not completely turn it the last 90 degrees would be the best way to
go about it.

I feel special now. lol. yeah it's me, thanks to Dan Heaton, who I
believe is the creator. It's not too hard of a trick, but can get you if
you land wrong or don't hold the seat well enough. But the post on the
wheel is easy if you hold the seat out (cocking the frame) so it gives
your foot a easy rest place proped up agaist the frame and on the wheel.
Then just drop down. So you wanna spin the uni, and lock your foot into
the wheel spot against the frame. When you learn to do that, you can 180
unispin down from it, after the 180 up, or 360 unispin down, or whatever
you feel possible. Good luck. Add me if you want any more advance. Or
just add me. haha.
