  1. A few days ago i got interested in footplants so i decided to learn a
    few different variations. I made a short movie its in here:
    http://gallery.unicyclist.com/album574 its called footplants. The title
    got all messed up so its on 2 lines but i dont really care enough to
    change it. The footplants arent flowy yet but i need to work on that😄 I
    thought i invented the 360 unispin footplant but then i did a
    search🙄 Can anyone else think of more variations?

  6. very nice! I would say your footplants are already very smooth, but what
    could make them better is if they're just a little.... faster, I guess?
    It just seems like you pause for too long. or something. nice job
    anyway!

  7. you could start doing footplants on your bc wheel😄 that'd be rather
    impressive.

    i was wondering how that fusion airseat has been working for you? is it
    much better than the original kh foam padded seat? any less bulky? and
    keep up your good work

    I think ill try bc foot plants later this week, i think ill have to
    grab the wheel or wedge my foot in the platform alot so it doesnt fall.
    landing will be the hardest part.

    I really like it, its so much better for sif, my hands are small so it
    was hard for me to hold it. I like it more than the origional foam its
    easier to do freestyle stuff because there is less bulk and its easier
    to take in and out of my legs for sif and sib.

  9. what about a footplant handflip. like a crankflip, but spin the wheel
    with your hand. you are smooth, but i think the faster (less foot time
    on the bench) the better.

    I was actually trying a footplant where i swung the frame around then as
    a dropped the wheel to catch the seat, i spun the wheel with my hand. I
    never got it good enough to film it.

  12. even though you are coming up with some cool stuff... all those have
    been done before. but keep thinking, you are bound to come up with
    something original sooner or later.
