[Fredrik_Justnes]

Nice vid! Those gaps were huge!

[Uni-Ouly]

your gaps are abnormal. you nust use some sort of harnes.either that or its rocket propulsion : )

[Probailer2]

Impressive truck gap.
But you need to wear some protection when u unicycle, realy.

Now stop saying that rims are weak and start looking a what you do with your uni.

[Matt_V]

That was so awesome. That truck gap was rediculous.

[Spoonthumb]

....calling out : Chris-THEuniSlab i want to see your video!!!

If you really want me to show you up I guess I'll throw a video together. Naw but seriously, that truck gap was :eek: replay worthy

[thejdw]

sweet

[Magixause]

How many stairs was that

[skrobo]

11 with about 15 feet of run up.

[skrobo]

yeah, i really wanted to wear a helmet on the truck gap, but i forgot it at home and that house was about 45 mins away... and that was the only chance i had to do it. i'm just making excuses, but i really do think that wearing a helmet is a good idea.

[DustinSchaap]

jumping over a car is quite slick

[forrestunifreak]

I can't believe you did that one truck gap, the landing looks terrible. Uphill landing on a peice of plywood... haha

[Municycler]

Wowee, thats insane! You cant do half of that stuff on a bike!:)

You crazy man

[Jerrick]

Wowee, thats insane! You cant do half of that stuff on a bike!:)

You crazy man

You can do all of that on a bike. lol Bikes usually go bigger too.

Like I said in MR, sweet video.

[sutton629]

wow you have abnormal jumping skills. I just feel bad for your uni and anything else that may get squished in the landing such as you. Nice video.

[oneisenough]

well i already put something in "Rate that Gap" but again.... that is amazing!

[ivan]

I think he meant you personally, Jerrick.

[Municycler]

I mean you wouldnt jump down 11 stairs on a bike. And on further inspection you could do that on a bike.

But anyway, it is amazing.

[wankenobi]

WOW big gaps!

[Brian O.]

I mean you wouldnt jump down 11 stairs on a bike.

Yes, but jumping a truck is slicker.

Great vid... whenever i see your gaps, it inspires me to go ride and try to hit a gap.. I suck at rolling hops like you wouldn't believe.. my personal record is 4 1/2'.

any advice for a newb? other than practicing, which i do every day, are there any techniques you use?

I ride up as fast as i can leaning forward, and once i start to jump, I even myself out by leaning backward a little bit. Is there a better strategie?

what kind of uni do you have?

[skilewis74]

That's rediculus! :D

You need some pads.

That would be cool and I'd definately buy it, but w/ so many people posting stuff for free, I think it would be hard to break even, never mind making a small profit, considering the huge costs of comercializing a DVD:o

[wickedbob]

From what I know all he is extra good at is gaps/ rolling hops. Still he owns them.

[Unicorn]

Skrobo!

You are an inspiration! You should be sponsored and featured in future commercial unicycling videos. That truck gap was as big as anything on "defect"!

I personally enjoy reading all of your threads. They are so chock full of invaluble info and advice!

yes, he jumped a truck. But it was a small truck. :-)
