  1. Hi all, I'm hoping some of you would be ableto help me out with a few
    freestyle questions, here goes:

    When (trying!) to one foot wheel walk, does the 'spare'
    foot touch the tyre at all to act as a brake? I seem to
    stop the whel moving when it's there, but the wheel shoots
    out if it isn't!

    How do you do the thing where you jump 180 degrees around
    the unicycle (like a uni spin except with the rider doing
    the spin!)

    How do you do the Dan Heaton-esque unispin with one hand
    when the unicycle is underneath you to start off with(as
    opposed to being held out in front)

    Also, I can't get the hang of balancing on one foot on the
    crank without the wheel rolling out, any advice?

    Thanks a tonne, James 🙂

  3. No you don't put your foot on in 1foot wheel walk the spare
    foot go's on the frame it just takes practice to get your
    balance.Unsure on the other stuff but if you are learning
    1foot wheel walk so you can glide it is well worth it
    although i went a slightly different route I learned to ww
    1ft ww then got bored started coasting go so far got annoyed
    with it found i could magically glide! Amazing!😄 i am not
    perfect at coasting i have done 5 revs max but i got tried
    of that and found i could glide much easier and can do about
    10 revs now sorry if that was no help bt it beats revision
    the other stuff is just strange the crank stand sounds easy
    but i never tried. Can any one help me with that off the
    wall thing that dan heaton does in universe 2 he go's in
    seat out back onto a wall holds a window sil and off in2
    seat out front anyone can do it here? Ben
