  1. The moment i saw dan doerksen and dan heaton in universe II
    is the moment i decided to ride street, and i voted spin but i think
    both spins and grinds are the coolest

  2. I voted grinds. I can't really do them well but i think they are the
    easiest to do well compared to the other.

    180s and 360s are really cool if you can throw them in down 6 stairs but
    that is really hard. 540s are awesome but they are just like
    impossible.

    Jumps are cool but again, not being a street rider myself i can only do
    a lousy 3 stair 🙁

  3. I love jumps/gaps/drops, especially if they are done while rolling. I
    haven't tried grinds yet, but they don't look too bad.

    Unicycling consists of the two Bs: balance and balls. Without these,
    you cannot progress

  5. I voted other which for me is backwards stair riding. I enjoy it a lot.
    I had a dream the night before last that I grinded a round hand rail
    but in reality I've never attempted a grind.

  6. You wuss andrew :p Go to the local skate park and try one of them, or
    just find a metal bench. You've been riding 2 years and you havn't even
    tried grinding stuff yet!

    Correct me if I'm wrong, I probably am, but isn't it... 'I had a dream
    that I ground a round handrail'. Sounds a bits stupid though. I reckon
    'hit' is the best term to use. 'I had a dream that I hit that round
    handrail'.

    And how is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every
    time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain.
