Trials / Street Practice Obstacle Ideas?

YEah,same here.If they wiggle or wobble put wedges under the edges,works
PERFECTLY and you can move them around whenever you want.If you have to
screw 'em together,use a nail or two,its easier to take apart.

You did that quickly in Paint?? Great job! The course is nice too. I
love the skinnies for grinding and riding along, and with a bit of
practise you can ride up one, turn the 90 degree corner, and down the
other...that's fun!

If you want to work on trials as well as street, maybe you could add
some more technical gaps in there. Sandwich boards would be
appropriate...they're very versatile. There are some sandwich board
building instructions at www.unicycle.2ya.com .

I'm guessing I could understand most parts of most conversations. I did
5 years of high school french. I'm no good at speaking french though.

There are some ideas for simple trials props he

What materials should I use, and would covering the wood with
something like carpet increase traction & save me injuries?

Carpet is a bad idea because generally the tufts (is that what you
call it) are directional, so you have a weird constant pull to one
side if you ride on carpet.

True, and you might lose a bit of height in your hops on carpet because
it's got more give in it than plain timber.
