As long as the tire isn't folding, pick what you think's best for you. -- _Ground_Zero_ -Zero )-2xLegwrap-O 3rd ------------------------------------------------------------------------ _Ground_Zero_'s Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/15520 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/71886 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Just practice and play around with it. There is no textbook answer. Some run them low, others rather high. After you get more used to the uni, things like 4psi wont make a difference anyway. Thats not to say that 10psi of fluctuation wont make a difference though. edit:Just use whatever feels best to YOU, not everyone else. -- oneisenough Plaeze x-cuze mi spelin' (If its wrong) 'Youtube' (http://www.youtube.com/user/RookieFilming) 'Vimeo' (http://www.vimeo.com/user496125) The UniSLAB wrote: Go big or go home, don worry about those little clown tricks called flips and wrap arounds.

To compress the tyre for hopping, shove all your weight downwards through the pedals. Once you've done that, the unicycle will naturally pop back up. Use this upwards momentum by pulling up on the seat and tucking with your legs to hop higher. All that is done in a fraction of a second and you have to time it right, but with some practice will come fairly easily. Hope that helps mate.

if you hit the rim it's too low. If not it's fine. No one can say because it totally depends on your weight and how high you hop, how tough you are on landings etc... -- brendan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ brendan's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/13680 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/71886 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |
