I can't do any of the tricks on the poll but I can be crazy. Thats how
I'm known as a unicyclist. All you need is a good risk once in a while.
I'm only 10 don't take advice from me.

I voted grind although I haven't (really) tried one yet. There's a
handrail near the place where I study and it taunts me every time I ride
past it.

I'll probably take all the pins out on one side of each of my pedals
before I do that stuff (pedal pins do screw out, right?).

it depends on the style, some screw in foom the bottom, some have a alen
head and screw from the top and some dont come out at all. best bet is
just to get a set of pedals w/o studs for trials, its easier to move you
feet around too

The moment i saw dan doerksen and dan heaton in universe II
is the moment i decided to ride street, and i voted spin but i think
both spins and grinds are the coolest

I voted grinds. I can't really do them well but i think they are the
easiest to do well compared to the other.

180s and 360s are really cool if you can throw them in down 6 stairs but
that is really hard. 540s are awesome but they are just like
impossible.

Jumps are cool but again, not being a street rider myself i can only do
a lousy 3 stair :(

I love jumps/gaps/drops, especially if they are done while rolling. I
haven't tried grinds yet, but they don't look too bad.

Unicycling consists of the two Bs: balance and balls. Without these,
you cannot progress

one can).Mayb if i learned to pedal grab first it would be easier.how do
you go about learning to pedal grab and grind?

I voted other which for me is backwards stair riding. I enjoy it a lot.
I had a dream the night before last that I grinded a round hand rail
but in reality I've never attempted a grind.
