benches benches benches (i am bench obssesed)

Palets are awesome if u can get access to them, picnic benches are cool
but tend to be real weak and break (no experience there obv...)

Scafolding poles are great too! also grind rails (for skinnies) i did
jump on a dishwasher that was great actually.

Walls are good too, flower pots... stairs are good too.

I have almost nothing around, so I took to street, but every so often or
so I ride or drive up to a park and unicycle about a mile away.

You're in the same position as me, my Dad won't let me keep pallets
either, he says I won't put them away when I'm done. I just got a
torker dx so I've been looking to practice trial too. Just about a hour
ago I went on my first search ride for something to ride on. I found
this bench at a playground, that was rubber. I tried to learn
crankgrabs on it, I came close but I had to leave because a family was
coming and I put a few little pedal peg marks on the edge. Does anyone
have any suggestions of types of benches to ride on that aren't rubber?
I have a few cement ones around my house but I'm afraid its gonna ruin
my brand new unicycle. I care a whole lot more about my unicycle than
the bench

ahaha i got told once by an old lady that i was damaging a brick ledge
by pedal grabing it, i told her kindly it was actually damaging my
pedal - she walked off not looking too happy.

rubber benches are pretty good (well plastic ones never really seen a
rubber one tbh) cause the ones i use to practice on where black and so
u couldnt really see the marks....

Best thing for pedal grabs are concrete walls. THey just dont give in!
stone walls - u can have the stones fall off - both embarrasing and
dangerous if it lands on your foot. Brick walls - they crumble away but
its not too bad.

But if ur doing crank grabs your going to damage your crank and pedal.
Its known. But the only thing thats gonna happen is small scratches to
the metal anmd the rubbing off of your paint, it doesnt matter - it'll
look more hardcore.

So the cranks and pedals won't bend or anything? Also I'm getting off
the subject but a pedal crab is just jumping up on something and
landing on your pedal and holding it right. Yeah the bench I was riding
was black but it still noticable if you were trying to get me in
trouble. Thats funny though how you told the old hag off.

You have to use your eyes. ANYTHING, well most anything, can be used to
do trials. You just have to develope that sort of habit were your
constantly looking for places. It also helps if you know any skaters
because just about every skate spot can be unicycled.

But...but...he's on one wheel. How is that possible?
No,no somethings not adding up here. One wheel? Aha! It's a trick see!
The other wheel is over there! (points at other unicyclist)

nah the cranks wont be hurt one bit, the pedals netiher. THey will just
get scratched. I mena pedals do break every so often but dont even
worry about it its not gonna happen on a brand new unicycle especially
- no offence meant - with what you are doing.

I wasnt ttrying to get you into trouble, just the one i did it on had a
roughed up surface so the pin marks didnt really show up much if you
know what i mean. To be honest just ride where you think is suitable,
most people will think its funny.

As for the lady, i didnt tell her off i merely meant it as a different
way of looking at it. Looking back at it i shouldnt have done it and
felt bad - i mean we dont want to end up like skaters do we?

I found rocks to be the best training for trials. Its hard to ever find
a flat surface like in an urban setting where almost everything is flat
and smooth.

Rocks, you always have to start on a rigid/uneven surface. Your landing
and take offs are always to point to point, crevice to crevice, slope
to slope, just take way more skill and control to start and get going
with natural rock trials then it does for urban stuff.

After a few hours or days working on rocks, going back to pallets
andriding around downtown just feels so easy now.
