talkin about the sex change in "any artists here" thread got me thinkin,
there seems to be some relevance with skate tricks and uni tricks, and
wat tricks compare to what uni tricks!!
like the uni hop is like an ollie, and i think the crankflip is like a
kickflip!
what other tricks do u think r similar to skateboarding tricks?
for example: 'Crankflip'
(http://munimanpete.unicyclist.com/streettips.htm#crankflips) ----
'Kickflip' (http://tinyurl.com/7qdxp)
no need for links tho :p hehe unless u want them

Grinding <-> Grinding
Any skateboard stall <-> Pedal/Crank Grab
Body Varial <-> Body Varial
Shove-it* <-> Unispin
*i'm not completely sure what a shove-it looks like so i'm not sure on
that one.

if you havent noticed, shaun names almost all of the unicycle tricks
after skateboarding tricks. so most of the flipping tricks are also
skateboarding tricks.

You are right about the shove-it. I want to add
180 flip = 180 flip
casper (as a manual) = seat push/drag.
indy = tire grab
If we are doing this proper though we should also be using BMX names
Saran wrap = seat wrap (not sure about the uni name)
Decade = body varial
Manual = one foot
Also, no offense but I would bet this thread has been done a few times
already.
