First video, any tips?

cool video. especially if youve only been riding not that long. my only
advice is dont be afraid to just land something. took me a while to
figure this out.

ha! You sir, have obviously not unicycled for long enough. Fear is good.
Fear is our friend.

Fear keeps us alive.

people with no fear are dumbasses. Well....I guess that says alot about
myself.

Anyways..I figure I'll get a mouth-guard and go back to my crazy antics
in a week from now.

Good video though..you got better and better as it went on.

Music is a must though.

I was going to lead you to www.unicycle.2ya.com for tips on dropping
technique but you seem well on your way to having a good technique.
Very impressive, especially after so little riding experience.

If you like classical music, put classical music in there. We could all
afford to be exposed to more classical music.

been riding for about as long as you and are about as good as you in
terms of the trials stuff on your vid (we also ride torker LX 24's). If
you got AIM or an email, post it or PM it to me.

I couldn't agree more with Andrew, but I'm seriously biased. I think
that your selection was a great piece, but it's a little more
challenging to find a classical piece that fits the energy of unicycling
than it is to use a techno or rap or some rock tune which often have the
raw beat and energy/or lyric right on the surface. Those are very
effective too, although I have a tough time with the explicit choices
that get made......my 5 and 7 year old daughters are riding unis now,
and I can't expose them to the profanity with a clear conscience
(they'll get it on the playground at school). For the best videos (that
have explicit tunes in their soundtracks), I'll just turn the sound off
to let them watch, but if the video isn't really special, I just don't
bother to download the ones that have the raw lyrics. I'm not a music
snob, the videos that I've seen put up in the gallery are very creative
and that goes for the music choices too. I just think that you should
be encouraged to explore the possibilities. As a suggestion, I think
that Stravinsky's Rite of Spring has tons of possibilities for a trials
video.......the hopping and the energy of the polymetric rhythms in the
faster sections of the piece would be very compatible. Sorry about the
length of this post......I feel pretty strongly about the subject!😄

Thanks for your suggestion, I will look into that. I do the same as you.
For those of you that saw the one with no music I put Rachmaninovs 3rd
concerto for the music but that is the best I have right now.

Uniac
P.S. Please no cussing by the way. Thanks.

Hey devone, heres a suggestion for you. If you don't like the video,
just say he needs improvement don't shut him down by saying "your gay,
your video is gay, I like MY skills better", no one nees to hear that
[censored]. I think he is doing great for a few months of riding.

I enjoyed the video Uniac.

Yeah, Devon definitely wants a kick in the ass for that comment.

Great riding for 2 months. I wasn't by far that good after 2 months. Oh,
and I see your Unicycle breaking very soon 🙂

CDs like 'Cartoon Classics' (http://tinyurl.com/5jsh8) are good for
classical music clips that would work in a video. Comedian' Gallop
would be a good one for a video except it's really short. Ride of the
Valkyries is a good one.

Another good classical piece for a uni video would be the "Sabre Dance"
by Aram Khachaturian. You could also try some sections from his violin
concerto; it's a very energetic piece.

You're doing really well for 1.5 months. Keep up the good work.🙂

I think so to. It already makes a bunch of creaking noises. I am
trying to save up for a new uni but I am not moving very fast on that
department.
