What is the best trick you have ever seen?

[Lucas1wheel]

Ok i'm really bored so, tell me what is the most impressive thing you
have ever seen on a unicycle either live or in a video,
The smiler walk thing I think is pretty cool, well that is an
understatement
also in simon wells freestyle routine I think it is he sideways ww so
fast and for a long distance it looks really cool. also the wall plant
things that people do these days, still haven't managed to learn


Cheers Lucas

Julien Monney, saddlestand.

But my all-time #1 remains Reino's inverted ultimate wheel (with hands)
on a slack rope.

Also, Mell Hall's inverted riding of a 9 footer is only super-amazing
when combined with the freemount that went with it.

Haven't seen any of them, but I know they're all real.

Some of the flatland that Dan does in the first part of Defect...I think
he does a Donkey Kick, and it looks sooo cool.
Also, the Smiley Walk, I think thats what its called...Ryan Woessner's
seat in front backwards wheelwalk.

smiley walk is seat in back wheel walk (what ryan does in the extras of
defect and in his unicon 12 routine).

I really like the smiley walk, and Julien Monney's coasting stuff:
-seat in front stand up coasting (both feet on frame)
-stand up backwards coast
-stand up one foot backwards coast
-coasting standing on the seat

I really like xavier collos flatland stuff too.

Definitly some of the stuff Julien Monney has done tops my list.

I know at least 3 people that have landed 720 unispins. The first was
Andy Schwartz, I believe in 1998.

I didn't know there was a hispanic guy in Defect... :confused: :)

Dans donkeykick in defect got my attention.

But the best or most amazing stuff I've witnessed is prob unicyclistjoe
casually riding along a 5-story high narrow rooftop in the middle of
the night... um, munimanpete riding a 1.5m high skinny round rail,
taking all the falls until he got it!! And his unispin/stillstand on
the totally exposed and steep rock above the huka falls - wow!! (huka
falls is a narrow gorge and waterfall that reguarly kills kayakers)

Me too. There has gotta be something in the laws of physics that says
its not possible.
i didnt believe it until i saw it at the Australian UNInats last year.

Most impressive to me is riding on a hand rail. Tough to do and big
consequences for failure.

Anything that involves hops or can be recovered with hops falls way
down in terms of difficulty in my book. Hopping is for pogo sticks.
