This shouldn't be too hard: jump, do some weird kick thingy in the air
to make it spin 180 degrees, land on it. Now you just have to figure
out how to kick it right. 🙄

Another thing I've done on accident when trying to jump: Pull the bc
wheel aaaaaall the way behind you by folding your knees all the way and
keeping your legs vertical. there is probably some cool grab you could
do while in this position.

EDIT: Oh, another idea: to start going when stopped: Lean waaay
sideways, jump and turn 90 degrees in the air and ride away. It could
work with practice...

The shove it is too hard. I cant get it to spin by just doing it while
siting down, spencer can. you first would need to get damn good at no
footers, but since th ebc is so light, i dont know how you would do it
because the bc would enarently stop rolling, so, youd have to jump
backwards...and i dunno, seems way way way way too hard

how about this: a somersault.

you grab the tire, stop the wheel, roll, and get up back on the wheel
in one fluid movement and keep riding... it shouldn't be too too
hard... the hardest bit would be getting back up...

dude...that'd be pretty much the coolest thing ever, and I think you're
right that it wouldn't be too hard. in fact, I think a few gymnastics
type moves are doable on a BC Wheel, with practice...like a roundoff,
and perhaps a handspring...the problem would be getting the wheel to
stay on your feet, clipless pedals would work, but then you might
die....

i've got one!!!
it's pretty darn near impossible though..

you jump up, tucking your legs WAY behind you and flinging the BC up
parallel with your back (wear a helmet just incase you hit yourself)
reach over behind your head (whilst in the air) and grab the Bc,
pulling it down in front of you for the landing

this would have to be done off a sizeable drop to be the least bit
feasible

i think the somersault sounds sick though!!

You could try cross-legged BC-wheeling. It should be possible with
practice.

You could try going towards a bar of the right height, jump off the
wheel, let it go under the bar while you go over the bar, land, and
stay on.

If you do a no footer over a bar or something. You let the wheel go
under the bar, while you jump over it.

We did a mount here, where one person rolls the wheel to another person,
the person jumps on and goes back towards where the wheel came from.
Also, you can always just jump onto it and go backwards I
guess....shouldn't be too hard...

hmm, you could possibly even do a handstand to continue
riding...interesting idea actually. Possible to even do it to a
walkover thingie...that'd be cool...now I just gotta get better at
riding a bc so I can show you what I'm on about :p

I've heard of someone riding an Ultimate Wheel with their hands before,
you could try riding the BC Wheel in a handstand (:
I'm pretty sure that one where you have it go under a bar and you jump
over the bar has been done before....

I have done it with trash cans, i have tried to do it from riding but
its so hard, i can spin it but i usually land on the wheel or miss
completely.
I used to be able to hop and fling the wheel up off my feet and catch
it then jump back on. I got that idea because i was hopping over
something and i did it on accident and i ended up standing holding the
bc. I cant do it anymore though.
If you ride it crosslegged i think it would rub your legs too badly and
with a handstand if evan tried it on his massive bcs it would eat his
head. Probably more practical with a tiny bc or really long arms.

Wow! I thought I had a lot of cool ideas for things to do on a bc, but
you guys have most of them already! -one foot riding, handstand,
adopting figureskating moves to the bc... Has anybody succeeded in
riding uphill? That's my current challenge.

Riding up hills isnt too hard, its just kinda stupid and takes alot of
effort, you can pedal it like a skate board...or handwalk it.

tire stall: done it once on a curb, seemed impossible to ride away
from

Purely speculation here, but I think that your tire stall to riding
away could be successful if you rode toward the curb at a fair clip,
did a backward leaning squat as you got to the curb (to absorb the
impact, and generate energy), then push off...riding away backwards.
When you get good at that, jump 180 degrees at the curb and land on the
plates riding off forward. If you land it, I personally want a video
of it. Good luck.

I think there are laws of physics that rule this out as being
impossible.
