idk about themusic (http://www.vimeo.com/1722019), but here's my latest video, titled Simplicity cuz for the most part its average riding... (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWAIIEP0n2c)
there are a few interesting parts tho, for non-crappy youtube video click the watch in high quality link under the bottom right of the video (i'm sure some of you already do this) , sorry about the quality of the "important" clips.
YES, first to break 3.0 m with a jump of 9'11.75" or 317cm... 3.17m thats a new -unofficial-(sadly enough) world record.
9'11.75"=3.17m

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oig5IEq-v4YDoes your editing software allow you zoom in on the jump? You could get much closer to the action and still keep everything in frame. It's pretty far away. But amazing jump!:D
Why is it a new worldrecord?

Have you rolling hopped that 11 set at the start?

that happens to be a 13 stair and no, i have not, and don't plan on it, the takeoff is too dangerous and it would be stupid to do. I rolled up to it several times and decided against it.

O, I counted 12 on my second counting, lol. Why is the takeoff dangerous?

its slippery, that wood has very little grip to begin with, and it had condensated (or dew, whatever) at the top so it was all wet up there...
i'm sure it was a 13, i walked up it and counted several times.

Take a towel or wait for summer.

lol, i am honestly a little skeptical of those stairs. I would MUCH rather find another stairset, hopefully closer, it's a few hours away.

up stairs... lol
practice practice practice is all i can say.
the learning curve for unicycles is much shorter than most other things, i'm assuming this is because of a lack of speed and ability to get places fast(on small unis), so get workin on it, and be glad its not something else.
