Lol not really, average at best. I'd much prefer a cooler, more urban area.

Yeah, that's about our extent of riding places within riding distance...

Not to mention in the summer, the state of Texas is not a very fun place to ride.

Yeah, he's good like that. I've tried to convince him to learn to hop on the wheel, since he's already got the basic stance down.

You have? :confused:

Tim, the secret is pulling the seat towards you...you have to counter your weight, which is making the uni slide off the ledge.

I've suggested it a couple times and you said it seemed too hard to learn.

Do you mean jump onto the wheel from crank-grabbing? Or jump with the uni while already on the wheel?

...the skill "Hop on wheel" only means one thing. If it actually doesn't, then I'm using the IUF's definition. So the latter.
