  1. I'm bored and don't feel like jumping on anything with my uni, and was
    wondering, what are some impressive, semi-hard flatland tricks I can
    practise?

    thanks,
    Miles

    nope, I guess I should learn how to hop on the wheel before I learn
    that?

    I can leg around with both legs, uni-can, and some other stuff.

  9. Seat on side (in a circle), seat on side idle, crank idle, koosh koosh,
    etc...

    if your not sure what some of those are, go to the standard page on
    Leo's website (the site that had the uniconnews)

    its very likely that the problem lies in your seat high. The higher
    your seat is, the less you have to bend you knees in order to get the
    seat round to your hip. if you using a trials uni, chances are you have
    a low seat, making it very hard to bend down that far, and it would put
    alot of unwanted pressure on your joints to do it.
