  3. i have done this many times!! I have a "tree house" behind by house with
    a rop swing. I ride alond and grab the rope with my 2 hands and sqeeze
    the uni with my knees/legs. The hard part is swinging back and keeping
    on riding.

    I think it would be close to immposible to swing on the rope and let go
    when you get to the end of the rope and drop of the end and ride. i
    oculd be wrong about this but it is really hard.

    Maybe ill put me doing that in a vid when i get my camera.

  6. I would love to do some tricks on a tramp I wonder if he would just lie
    there and take it or would he get up and protest about being ridden on
    by some punk on one wheel.
    Man that would make a good vid

  7. I was doing some trials near a swing set when I discovered the
    cross-over move between uni and swinging. I rode backwards into the
    swing and landed in the swing's seat, feet still on the pedals and butt
    still on the uni seat. Riding backwards into the swing moved it back
    such that when I lifted the wheel off the ground, I began to swing, uni
    and all.

    Getting off the swing, well, that's a different story :p

  8. haha
    did u try it on purpose or was it an accident?

    i should try riding into a swing and jumping off the uni onto the
    swing, but it probably wouldnt work cuz all my momentum would be down
    and not forward.

  9. Follow 'this link' (http://tinyurl.com/7wmzo) to Brian MacKenzie's post
    about the making of his Unimovie which featured a rope-swinging mount
    of a 36" Ultimate Wheel.

    The link in his sig will take you to the movie site and a downloadable
    trailer.
