  2. Jumping up that picnic table? Takes a lot of practice to get a high hop,
    but is well worth it.

  3. you go wherever your imagination takes you. you don't have to ride pure
    trials, you can add street, flat, freestyle, or whatever to it.

    be creative. look around you at what you have to ride and vizualize
    different lines, push your limits.

    i can take something like a curb and make it interesting. i can
    distance forward hop onto it. i can lateral gap as far as i can onto
    it, and then tuck my seat under me and ride it. i can hope onto it,
    ride along it, turn around on it and ride back the other way. i can
    ride backwards onto it. i land a 180 onto it, and 180 out and continue
    riding along the pavement. I can fakie rolling hop onto it. fakie hop
    off of it. fakie 180 onto or off of it. I can go for a distance sif
    180 static gap onto it, and from there maybe try riding along it. I
    can try to 1-foot ride on top of it. I can try to still stand on top
    of it by both sitting or standing.

    if i was a street or flat rider i'm sure so much more could be done
    with a 'boring old' curb.

  4. skinnies, gaps, ups, grabs, eliminate set-up hops

    trials doesn't have any real tricks, just try harder and harder lines

  6. try it rolling. doing everything static is too tedious and boring for
    me. i like rolling up to something and just jumping it, whether it be
    over, through, into, off of, or grabbing it (pedal or crank grab).
    thats my just my style though. keep it what you want, make it
    interesting, don't let anyone tell you how to ride, but if it sounds
    like fun, give it a shot.

  11. w/ a set of stairs you can do all sorts of stuff. Hop/down 1,2,3, etc at
    a time (I saw someone rolling hop up 6), gaping, 180's, all static,
    prehop, rolling, SI, SIF. Get creative w/ combining them in different
    ways.

    I saw someone roll up 3 stairs on a trials and like 12 on a Muni (24" I
    think).

    Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere. If you can ride where you
    are going within a hour, do it, and if you can do a trick 50-75% of the
    time do it along the way.

    flatland is kind of like street but you just hop around on your
    driveway and do different spins, flips and such.

    watch 'this' (

  16. Flatland is crank rolls and combos on flat ground. Ex Go from one foot
    wheel walk to 360 unispin to crankroll to hop on tire to side ways
    wheel walk.

    bmx flatland kicks ass. i'm not saying unicycle flatland isn't
    challenging, i can't do it, i'm just saying that flat uni doesn't
    appeal to me.
