  3. I did just then but I wasn't the first.
    Treflips are my favourite trick. Lots of people should learn them
    because they're so cool. That or doubles.

    EDIT: also Levi, how long have you been riding?

  11. Backflips for sure, one of the most underrated moves there are. They
    look hot impressive, way more than crankflips in my opinion.

    Also is the key to 50% of flip tricks. There's like nothing on how to
    learn backflips, so this'd be a good opportunity for people to properly
    discuss the trick and swap tips and techniques.

  12. yea, backflip might be good. They seem really hard. I could probably
    learn fakie flips but when I try backflips, I can't seem to get the
    cranks to flip very well.

    interested but I need to know what the tricks are before I can vote.

    double flip = a double crankflip
    backflip = a backwards crankflip
    tre flip = a 360 unispin with a crankflip
    bigspin = a 360 unispin with a 180 twist towards the spinning
    direction of the unicycle

  17. I'd like a Crankflip comp, although I have landed them, I am back to
    learning them.. I had a complete problem with the way my feet were set
    up on the pedals.

    Or something like a standup wheelwalk?

    I really have no chance of hitting anything on the poll.

    And why can't we have more than 1 competition at once?

    It's actually spelt treflip, tre means 3 and it's a 360 flip.

    Levi, backs are nothing compared to tres.
