  1. Why not make the next tutorial for backflips? It is the next logical
    step and has a different motion from regular crankflips. I bet more
    people will benefit from a backcrank tutorial than one for a more
    advanced flip trick (trey flip) anyways. [edit]: palmercycle beat me to
    it.

    Nice job on the tut. I'm going outside to do a crankflip down a casual
    18 set.

  11. for the new vid what about something entirely differnet, like a varial,
    or whatever it;s called when you move around the uni like a unispin but
    the uni stays in the same orientation and you more 180 or 360.

    180 uni spins are easier then these crankflip things you just need shin
    guards and it makes it so much easier. just jump and spin. its easier
    to start going backwards and spinning the unicycle so its facing
    forward when you are done. it is easier if you learn 180 unispin mount
    or whatever you call it.. i dont understand how it helps but people
    always said it and maybe it helped me

    how bout a 360 unispin tutorial😄 i cant figure that out

  15. How awesome is it that we are all witnessing a revolution. Right now in
    these forum we talk every day with tomorrow's tony hawks, dave mirras,
    etc. I think it is just so amazing that we are watching a sport grow
    that is still in it's infancy.

  16. You make a really great point cmsustud19 I just hope that the people
    that get really good stay true to the sport and to the riders.

    I'm leaving for Indiana in two days (on saturday) so i won't have time
    to make a tutorial before then. But when I get there i'll ahve all teh
    little things i need so i might make a backflip or 180flip, hickflip,
    tutorial next. Should be interesting.

    p.s. i'm glad some of you liked the little jokes in there, i tried to
    make it amusing, so it was more than just informative.

    Trying my best to impress. It seems that some people think that flips
    are becoming "trick spam". I just think it's a way to make old school
    easy street harder.

    Edd

    also because on some people with crappy computers, youtube usually
    works with minimal time and frustration.

    i have one thing to say here: Shaun Johanneson is my new best friend.
    😄 seriously. i've been trying to learn crankflips with no luck so far.
    i hadn't even thought of doing the first two steps. i haven't tried
    them yet but they seem like a good idea that i never, of course,
    thought of. thank you so much shaun!!!

    Thanks! It looks nice.

    Just got a small question about the combination of "please don't copy
    or misuse" and "feel free to distribute" part... How are those two
    sentences compatible? How can I distribute it without copying?
