  2. Better yet, does anyone besides Dan Heaton do 540's?

    I've tried them, and it hurts my back...

  4. Dan does a 540 in UNiVERsE II, so I assume he can do 720's now....

  5. That was off a drop though in U2...
    He did the 540 on flat in defect so he could probably do a 720 off
    something.

  14. Me too, except I can understand him talking just fine...

    the thing with 540's-720s is you have to 'fudge' the landing, spin it
    so it gets the whole rotation....

  15. Dan is the best at 5spins. No doubt. Xav i've seen bust off something,
    and I can do it on flat every once in awhile. (It's close enough to
    look decent.) As for 7spins go, i know of know one to do it. Dan would
    be closest. I want to do one this summer. I don't really have a chance
    at being first, since spinning is NOT my speciality (I suck).

    p.s. eh... grammer, spelling, whatevv.

    I have had conversations with my unicycle buddies about thise
    'fudge'-ing thing, and we generally come to the conclusion if you
    'fudge' then it doesnt count. Authough it still looks damn fine mostly
    if done well. Why not 'fudge' the whole thing 😉 lol

    It's OK you have enugh skill to make up for it. Hell I'd bet Kris Holm
    could start a thread with "I rid triuls" as the subject line and
    everyone here would just kiss his ass.
