I've been in the hallway for a couple of days now, trying to keep my weight in the saddle, looking forward, rocking and trying to balance a little, while holding onto the wall. Got a couple of revolutions without holding on. Told myself once I could do that I'd go outside and try to push off from a tree, see how far I could get with no wall to lean on (grassy earth sounds like a much better place to fall than hard blacktop.) I went outside, put the uni on the grass next to a tree and got on. It sunk into the ground an inch and wouldn't move. There goes my whole plan.
Am I gonna kill myself if I go out on the driveway tonight?
If you don't fall off then NO, but if you do well...you'll just have to go and see for yourself, what have you got to lose?

You probably won't fall. You're probably a couple hours away from being good enough to fall. For now, just don't try to catch the unicycle and you'll be OK, you'll just wind up standing on the ground.
You probably should wear gloves or wrist guards, but don't worry about it too much. -Tom
