Re: Today I... (brag thread)

Oh yeah, i forgot to mention todays unicycling achivements.:o

well, i landed my first normal treyflip! No more being restricted to 1
handed in-in, so trey doubles are finally a posibility, doing them 1
handed in-in is close to impossible...

ive lost track of what lateflips i could already do... But i think i
might have a few new ones haha.

i landed several hick doublebacks on a freestyle uni. I think i can get
them down a curb on my trials...

thats just about it i think...

I landed a couple of unispins with pinned pedals. I didn't think I'd be
able to flip with them, but I just tried and it was surprisingly easy.
But I think I'll rip my shoes up if I do them too often, so I'll go
easy on them.

I think it's a bit less damaging if you put your bakfoot on the edge of
the pedal before the flip. It flips faster that way, too.

I'll experiment with it a bit more tomorrow.

Edit: I'm sorry, I meant crankflips. Silly me.

Made a small clip for the back it up game, as well as a small music clip
to go with it, but im not quite done with the music yet.

Editing job wasn't all that good, it was quick..

The second clips quality kinda sucked cause I was using my crappy
camera, but its duable i suppose.

Somewhere in your export setting there should be an option to
"deinterlace source video" or something to that nature... that should
clean up those lines in the second clip.

I just landed about 10 double flips With pretty heavy (compared to
plastics), very grippy metal pedals. I do most of my riding with them
now as its almost always wet. Yea they shread your shoes but nothing
compares to the grip you get.

EDIT: Didnt want to burst your bubble, was just sort of saying Im with
you and and your metal street riding pedals 😄

Cool, man! You got any tips on keeping your shoes intact? I think it's
the draggin across that would damage them the most. So, if you minimize
that you should be alright.

I'll experiment with it tomorrow: my two main ideas are keeping the
back foot on the side of the pedal and/or removing it early.

I really like my shoes, don't wanna rip them.

Ive always done more damage to my shoes from the cranks than the pedals.
Tho I usually ride with the K1 street cranks.

Do you like your shoes more than unicycling? Just let em fall apart and
be happy they helped you ride.😄

They're my last pair. If these two fall apart, there's no more
unicycling(at least not with proper shoes) until I buy a new pair.

And I'm a bit strapped for cash.

I had qu-ax cranks rip up my shoes from doing crank-rolls. Moments seem
to do zero damage to them.

Like 2 and a half year.
But I got a 24" for my first year, with that I could max jump 60cm.
I'm happy if I get 90cm, anything higher isn't so much at competitions
or you can just pedal it 🙄

Finished cutting up my TA

I probably took 300g of rubber off and now have a tread that is more
aggressive than the new nightrider tire.

I should have done it months ago.
