  1. Yep, I'm 4 skills away from level seven! They are:

    - Hop on wheel 5 times
    - 180 to the left
    - 180 to the right
    - Ride backwards SIF in a circle

    Any tips?

  2. theres lots of tips around the forum for hopspins. do a search for
    them, or check unicycle.2ya.com, theres actually a help video on
    hopspins.

    as for hopping on the wheel, go to it from the ground to start, and
    once you can actually do it, then try going from the pedals.

  10. Ride backwards SIF in a circle is easiest when oyu hold the seat so
    tight into your body as possible.

  16. I'm about the same distance from level 7 (missing hop-twists, spinning,
    and need a couple more mounts into alternate skills), but anyway, here
    are a few things that might be helpful...

    hopping on wheel:
    just keep trying it, as a "mount", by just hopping straight on the
    wheel from the ground. It seems to help if you keep the wheel against
    your legs, and don't try to hop very high at first, even 1/2" is fine
    for the skill levels.

    hop-twisting:
    This is hard on a freestyle unicycle. I can do it easily on my trials
    uni, but still can't get it every time on my freestyle unicycle. I
    find it easier to do seat in front, since I can get more height that
    way (especially with a hard tire)

    ride backward SIF C:
    Just a matter of practice. Try both directions. I didn't find this to
    be very difficult AFTER I had doing it straight down solid. Also work
    on riding backward standing up (no weight on seat) and with one hand
    stuck on the front of the seat, since one thing that makes this hard is
    you can't use both hands for balance.

    good luck! I am sure you will get to level seven long before I will
    (since you can spin, which seams just about impossible to me).
