I voted donkey kick but I wouldnt mind learning any of them, although like I have already mention, for those that have only just learned crankflips and are not very consistant with tham I think it will be verry hard learning variations and will be better off learning another trick first wilst they get crankflips down

Not donkey kick! That would make it the second competition in a row that I can't compete in. I can already do them

Haha, I never thought I'd be sad that I could do a trick.

I voted donkey kick. I have played around with them a bit and I think that it would be a rather quick comp.. The kick is easy, but jumping to the tyre and landing back on the pedals will take some practice.

I prolly wouldn't do many of those, except maybe the Body Varial, but I want to say that when doing these competitions everyone in 'em should write about how they go about learning them and what helped the most. Because reading through the Crankflip Competition thread I learned lots of stuff!

Yea all of the information is very helpful. Also, new learners will be able to search and look back on how to do the tricks.

Looks like its a close run between small spins and donkey kicks so far. Keep voting guys..

I wonder if it's possible to do a 1080d. It doesn't have to be ground to ground (obviously) It can be from pallets or high chairs or a semi-trailer roof.

I hoptwist counterclockwise, and I unispin clockwise.

Is it normal/common to unipsin and hoptwist in opposite directions?

The reason I'm asking is because I was trying small spins, and I will need to switch one of them to be able to do it. It makes it a lot harder and I was just wondering if anyone else has this problem.

I both hoptwist and unispin clockwise, if you do it differently I would sugest learning to hop twist in the oposite direction, although I only tried to unispin in the oposite direction once or twice I think it will be alot easier to learn hop twists rather than unispins.

^^^ I was thinking the same thing. I'm gonna try it later when I go riding.

We defintly shouldn't do body varials, I landed one the other day after about 5 tries.

I have an idea, why not a unicycle design competition. Yeah, i like that. people could design what they want the next...and post them up on these forums.

- Unicycle
- BC
- UW
- Half fork unicycle
- Recumbent
etc

When a bunch of you guys/gals have an idea let me know and i'll start a new thread so you can post your designs and explain your creations and discuss it with others.


What do you guys think?? Me personally, i think it may become the next big on these forums and it will expand peoples imaginations.
