jer Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Has anyone tried a pedal unicycle after starting with an EU. If so did you feel that EU experience helped or were you starting again from the ground up. Conventional unicyclists get on a EU and are going in about 5 mins Thanks Jer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Ultimate Wheel is so sick!! I want one . I started on an analog unicycle before the digital ones came out. hehe. I used to love it, I even used it to perform on the street when I lived in Denmark. Oh yes that looks much harder than a regular uni with a seat, with all the sideways motion there is a hell of allot of compensation needed constantly, that's why his arms are always out and his back is so straight. I don't think there is much relaxing on his rides around town. lol As for learning to ride the regular unicycle...it is abs all day, with a little lower back pain thrown in there for extra measure. Pretty tiring. Everything in this video should be possible on our EU's if he can do them on that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunka Hunka Burning Love Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 I think Inventist developed something called a Lunicycle which is supposed to be easier to ride (BTW this guy is a shear genius - check out his other inventions): http://www.inventist.com/inventions/lunicycle/ It reminds me a little of this Nimbus version, but it has an oval wheel interestingly enough. http://www.unicycle.com/unicycles/ultimate-wheel/nimbus-20-inch-ultimate-wheel.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the man...the name is not a joke!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
