!The collective IdIoTS guide to unispins!
only one foot will have the pedal coming towards it in any direction. its not like their both coming towards you when spinning counter clockwise. really its irrerrevant. find whagt works for you and unispinning is inevidable....in..in...inevidable. btw im not weird. team america reference... -- gabetheunicycleman unicycleman does not stand..... he sits on the air --unicycleman- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gabetheunicycleman's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/13054 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/55431 |

really? have you seen a man eat his own head? my leg armour (wow that sounds beefy) should be here on monday meaning i shall be able to overcome my fear and land a 180 and maybe even 360 unispin. i can get the spin for both and bring my feet down but i keep deliberately missing because subconsiously i fear loosing my shin skin. -- tobbogonist Siglet James_Potter wrote: Hahaha, page BOOB! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tobbogonist's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12176 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/55431 |

I hop with my left foot forward, so I spin my uni counter-clockwyse so that my feet can stop the spin when I land on the pedals/cranks. I used to spin the other way when practicing the 180 unispin and when I tried the other way, every thing looked much easier Agreed. Except for rolling 180s (and rolling 360s) I think it's usually easier to spin clockwise (from left foot forward) so, then you can easily spin one handed from seat in. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ll0z-aq8yKE -- pete66 *Apparently during dinner the elk had drunk a lot of beer and fell down the stairs, and died* -Tycho's Elk ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pete66's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/4812 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/55431 |

I learned to unispin with metal pedals, and that's what I ride with. Haven't tried plastic pedals so couldn't say if it's easier or not. If I was gonna get plastic pedals I'd get the Twisted Odyssey ones, they've got the same platform design as the much touted Jim Cs (which I use). -- pete66 *Apparently during dinner the elk had drunk a lot of beer and fell down the stairs, and died* -Tycho's Elk ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pete66's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/4812 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/55431 |

^^^ don't think it would be easier either with plastic to make the spin. What i'm wondering is it less of a chance I will hurt myself. -- Joe2005 *Come To The Dark Side* we have cookies.

I can land my 180 unispins pretty well, but with 360's i can't really get close. I started by keeping my hands on the seat and doing a 360 mount. Thats easy, but then after watching the pro's do it i realized they have both hands on one side of the seat and catch it while its spinning. Its probably that i'm too afraid to do this. but its hard as hell -- Chexjc www.myspace.com/thelostguitarist habbywall wrote: Dude, Jason, or chexjc or what ever your called, you are seriously my magic hero, you must teach me how you do all of that stuff!!

Joe2005 wrote: What i'm wondering is it less of a chance I will hurt myself. Plastic or metal, there's the potential to hit yourself in the shins pretty hard if you're not wearing shin protection. A pedal in the shin shouldn't count as "hurting yourself", hurting yourself is when you physically can't ride for the next few days. So to answer your question, there's almost zero chance that you'll hurt yourself! -- pete66 *Apparently during dinner the elk had drunk a lot of beer and fell down the stairs, and died* -Tycho's Elk ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pete66's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/4812 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/55431 |

For rolling 180s I go seat in, jump up off the pedals with the uni just slightly in the air, kick my feet out and spin the uni. Then try to land on the cranks first with your knees bent. -- stuckinwheeliemode ------------------------------------------------------------------------ stuckinwheeliemode's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11984 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/55431 |
