    i know what they _are_ meaning the level of your ability, but i cant
    find them on the net anymore and i really want to know what the things
    i need to da are. i think i might be a lvl 2
    not sure
    ive just really been teaching myself since i got it a month ago (id
    already done some uni at school for sport, by the end i could ride
    about 50m and turn) but since then im able to freemount, hop up
    gutters, doublehop to 180, its real fun.
    help a noob out?

    Hi, welcome to the forums.
    i too had trouble finding info on skill levels when i started uni'in
    but that was awhile back so there probably was less info about it then
    anyway,
    'this' (http://tinyurl.com/1yem) should help or 'this'
    (http://www.unicycling.org/iuf/levels/), hope thats what your looking
    for.

    -very- few people seem to bother with levels though, and not just
    because they only apply to freestyle.

    I got confused when I read the title. I knew about the 10 LEVELS and
    I've even seen the REAL 10 LEVELS before but when I saw 'STAGES' I
    immediately thought about stuff like the 6 stages of dealing with death
    or the stages of alcoholism or drug abuse or stuff like that. So, here
    are my 10 'stages' of unicycling:

    1. Excitement: from the anticipation of learning a new skill.
    2. Determination: that with enough practice, you'll get it.
    3. Exhaustion: from trying and trying and trying again.
    4. Frustration: No matter how hard I try, I just can't seem to get that
    first 50 meters.
    5. Elation: when you finally conquer that one wheeled devil.
    6. Denial: You've been riding a week and then you kinda 'forget' your
    balance.
    7. Euphoria: OK, you've overcome your little setback and you can really
    RIDE that thing.
    8. Curiosity: Now that you can ride, just what else can you do with
    that thing?
    9. Pain: OK, sometimes you don't 'stick it' and nut yourself on the
    stair rail.
    10. Confidence: Now you feel that you've truly mastered something that
    very few others have.
