Default is this a new trick?


I landed something that i have been trying to do for ages. the trick
starts with a jump and mid-air you take your feet off after pushing the
front pedal, the wheel will then do a complete rotation and last landing
with your feet in the same position as they started.

I demand that you change your title to something other than "Unicycling
Newbie" immediately.

I remember something like that on a bike being called a "kickflip" like
on a sakteboard. Only instead of a board, the cranks spin. Lame on a
bike, awesome on a unicycle!

Yeah, I knda got the idea from seeing bmx videos, and seeing how
technical skateboard tricks are getting. I want to come up with more
stuff that incorpirates jumping and uni movement.

It seems to me that every sport started with simple stuff and as those
sports grew, more and more technical tricks evolved. For example, I saw
an early 80's? bmx video called GTV (a play off of GT bikes), and many
of the tricks reminded me of uni tricks.

The kickflip is so different from any other unicycle trick, for that
reason it might be some thing that a person who dosen't have alot of the
base tricks down might be able to learn it. like how it is hard for a
person who can't wheel walk to learn how to glide.

I believe that I have seen someone do this. It is a really cool trick
though.

Hahaha this is hilarious because this morning before school i thought of
this trick and was going to work on it when i got home but u beat me to
it. Congratulations, but i think what unicycling needs more of is names
for tricks!! So what do u call it? No footed cran flip?
