  1. ummm, im just a newb, but wouldn't that be a no-footer wheel walk, since
    he's grabbing the tyre?

    No because you are not pushing the wheel foward.

    Hand wheelwalking is a trick though.

  4. as long as we're on the subject of tricks... anybody see the video at
    http://gallery.unicyclist.com/yoggi?page=1 with the handstand on the
    frame on the ground then the kickup mount? It is pretty pimp. Any idea
    how to do it? I can hardly do a handstand anyway... By the way,
    EVERYONE should have those vids, they are awesome.

    I know what you mean and so I usually do this kind of trick seat out, I
    think it's easier in the long run too.

    Not to demote what this guy is doing in any way, but if you look
    closely you can see that the whole sequence is 4 different takes patched
    together.

  7. no-footer sounds good to me, and that's what I'd call it. Jacinto Ayuso
    takes it a little further in U2 and instead of reach down and grabbing
    the tire, he just does a 180 instead. I presume this would be called a
    no-footed 180?

  8. ive never been able to do these more than a tiny bit (just takin my feet
    off about an inch), just cus it hurts too much!! my friends can do it
    easily, and can click their heels behind the wheel whilst doin the
    trick.

    i dont think it should be called a no-footer, although it is, because a
    real no-footer is different, like in universe 2. but i do think it
    should be called something to do with no-footer, like
    "tyre-grab no-footer" or somethin.

    ive been workin on no-footers for a while, and did about my biggest one
    yet last week (its in my avatar😄 )

  9. yeah, I saw the little skips, but still pretty cool. I like the vids
    anyway. Which reminds me, what are the top ten vids on the gallery?
