  1. I finally went from a crank grab to tire!! ๐Ÿ˜„
    It actually isnt very hard if you just try it.. I found that what
    really helps is to tilt your unicycle kinda sideways to the way you're
    jumping. I know people explained this.. but I found it hard to
    understand, so i drew everyone a picture!!!!!! ๐Ÿ˜„

    I know that it _is_ the greatest picture ever, but we arent here so
    discuss my beautiful art.. so no need to tell me how awesome it is ๐Ÿ˜„
