Default idling and wheel sizes


Thank you Mike for two excellent posts. I agree with both your
assessment of wheel sizes and the difference of skills and tricks.
If you plan on buying a unicycle (Mequauni, not Mike), be prepared to
buy at least two. The first one is good for learning the basics on, and
after you know what you're doing and have decided on what type of riding
(or types of riding) you plan on doing, you can decide what size of
wheel to get for a higher quality uni. The most common are 20" and 24".
It's hard to confuse the two after seeing them next to each other.
And speaking of seeing, the best way to know what the skills and tricks
are is to see an actual unicyclist performing these tricks. When that's
not an option, looking at the videos on unicyclist.com might work.
Anyone have links to videos of some standard skills in the albums?
