Possible? Yes

A good idea? Probably not

It would be like learning to ride a unicycle without knowing how to
ride a bike

I can't ride one, but i'm not sure that it's anything like riding a uni.
1. You have no seat or frame to help suppost the wheel.
2. You are coasting.

I say he should just go for it. If he's got good ballance then he'll
learn it fast enough anyway. It's a bit of a wierd progression, but
it's doable.

Unis and BC wheels are nothing alike to ride. BC wheels are super easy
to learn compared to Unis; a couple of hours and your brother will
probably be going 50+ feet.

I agree. I think being able to unicycle would make it slightly easier
to learn to BC but probably not much. I learnt to BC very quickly. And
if you look at what flatland BMX riders do it's basically the same as
riding a BC wheel. Most of them probably can't unicycle.

I know a kid who can unicycle but never rode a bike!

The two are not related. I am sure that your brother ecan learn to ride
the Ultimate wheel without knowing how to Unicycle.

Learning to ride an ultimate wheel without being about to unicycle
would be VERY hard. This is a impossible wheel we're talking about,
more commonly known as BC.

Have you considered a 'Ultimate wheel' (http://tinyurl.com/j922q), they
are a fusion between a unicycle and BC wheel*???*

So when he gets better at 1. He could move onto a proper BC or
unicycle.
