  1. Can anyone Unispin on a Muni?
    I have a Qu-ax 24" and i am rather envious of my friend who can unispin
    his trials uni.
    I want to know if anyone can actually do it, whether it is worth trying
    to learn or is just far too hard, as i suspect,
    cheers.

  2. I haven't actually done it on a 24", but I imagine you just have to jump
    higher off of it and kick your legs out a little farther as to allow
    the wheel to spin between them.

  4. I learned (sort of) on a uni just like your's. It is possible but more
    difficult. I didn't really practice very much, but I've done a few.

  7. Riding a muni off-road is all about how practical you can make it over
    obstacles. Skills such as hopping, dropping and even log riding in some
    cases, can help when it comes to conquering the terrain.

    For that reason a unispin wouldn't be worth learning to do on a muni.
    But then to me it doesn't seem to have much point on a trials or a
    freestyle uni either...

    Perhaps for the enjoyment/thrill you generally get from doing tricks?
