Welcome to the forums! =p

By no footed are you talking about coasting or gliding?

[uniska]

yeah ok so thats what it is called I had no clue but yeah

[gordito8me]

Start 1 foot wheel walking, then, lean forward, kick the wheel and don't kick it again. You can start doing this down hills and then braking with your foot as needed to balance. good luck.

Hehe, to which one? Coasting? Or gliding?

[gordito8me]

I didn't know there was a difference... is there? (minor thread jack)

[uniska]

yeah what is the difference I honestly don't know

Yes, there is a big difference.

Gliding, one foot is on the frame, and the other foot is on the tire as a way to control your speed or to push the tire to get going, or to not fall.

Coasting, both feet are on the frame, nothing is touching the tire to control your speed or to push with, its just you, sitting on the uni, both feet on the frame, and your just rolling along.

hahaha I think I will try gliding first, so can you tell me some techniques PLEASE!

[Jerrick]

Gliding. (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=54207)

That vid shows some really good gliding, so you can see how it looks and the basic concept.

Here (http://munimanpete.unicyclist.com/freetips.htm#gliding), will tell you all you need to know about it.
