  1. I'm on my second week of learning to unicycle and i have a question
    abuot the skill levels. On level 3, one of the challenges is to ride
    over a ride over a 10 x 10 cm obstacle. Now i have some bricks but
    they're not the right size. I can ride up a 10 cm curb, but i dont have
    an object to ride clean over, would you say a curb counts? is it that
    much different than riding OVER something?

    PS: any sugestions for objects? i dont really have any wood at my
    disposal...

  2. It must suck to be a hermit with no wood or other resources. 🙂

    A curb is not the same as riding over a 10 x 10cm obstacle, so you'll
    need to find something closer. Your brick doesn't sound bad. Of course
    if you ride (or hop) over something bigger, that works as well.

    Good luck!

  5. Or you could follow the instructions on his page to make one, that way
    you wouldn't have to spend 400 bucks on a plane ticket 🙄
