I'm around where you were a week ago. 55cm sidehop, 35 cm rolling. Working on both, but the rolling hops aren't coming along as fast as I'd like. -- tmoyer ')--360unispin08--O' (http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=HPwf_TA17xo) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tmoyer's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/16057 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/59184 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Ride reasonably fast, line up the wheel about the height of the object in distance (eg, if it's 40cm high, jump from 40cm away, but just trial different lengths to see what works for you). Jump high but also bend at the waist and bring the front of the unicycle up. Commit! Make sure you stay on the pedals, the worst thing that can happen is you fall fowards onto what you're jumping onto. -- SkierAlex '.'
