Uni flips in the snow

[Mistercookieface87]

We got our first REAL snow over here in PA and i got out the uni for the
better part of 4 hours friday (we got an early dismissal right after
lunch :D ) and after the driveway was shoveled i had some pretty nice
piles of soft, powdery snow. Until this point i have not really tried
uni spins for fear of mangling mybody on the gravel, but with the snow
to impact my falls i started just going for it. The first few times
went badly (to say the least), but i just threw my weight so i would
fall in the wonderful glorious snow. I have not landed any spins yet,
but i am amazingly closer than i ever would have been without the help
of the snow...

paying close enough attention i suppose... sorry for that.

Cool

It took me ages to learn to unispin, as i was scared of the ground! But
with some sixsixone protection, my fear faded, and I learnt! :)

It is a cool trick!


Joe,

In the snow or grass it's always easier to learn new tricks like that. I
learned a jump mount in the grass, and a suicide mount in the snow. Now
I'm going for the unispin....

I've ALMOST got it down... i got the 180 part and my feet on the pedals,
i just can't stick it and ride away... so close and yet so far... plus
the snow now has a layer of ice on, but the fear has gone so no matter.

Reinholds is right outside of Reading, just over an hour or so from
Philly... not suprised in the least you have never heard of it :( ...

hopefully i can pull off the unispin soon, and hopefully my pedals will
survive until after the holidays when i can get new ones... rest
assured i'll let it be known when i am sucessful :D
