With a flat rail, you need momentum to grind for any distance. With an inclined rail, gravity will take you down the rail... no momentum is required... all you have to do is get on the rail. As for height, keep in mind the higher you make the rail the higher you'll have to jump to get onto the rail... and jumping tends to rob one of their forward momentum. -- maestro8 Those are my principles.

I learned to grind ona ledge, then an inclined ledge, then a rail, then an inclined rail. -- mornish aim:kiloornish email: mornish AT gmail DOT com muniaddict wrote: does he have me confused with somebody who's actually good?

grind rail poll
I agree with maestro, a slightly inclined rail is easier than a flat rail...my friend learned to grind by simply setting the unicycle on an inclined rail, then stepping on and sliding down. -- James_Potter i still believe that all you need is love...john lennon '*mikael atkinson*' (http://www.barefoothippie.com) mdotedotatkinsonatgmaildotcom President of the 'MRIS' (http://tinyurl.com/dk2de) *♥ Unicycle For Peace ♥* _____________________________________________ -last edited by skrobo : today at 11:41 am.- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ James_Potter's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/3807 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/58280 |
