Could be accomplished with a specially made novelty unicycle.
Someone (Guy Hansen?) has made such a novelty unicycle. It has been at
a couple of the USA conventions. The seat post is held in the frame by
a bearing arrangement so the seat post is free to spin. Challenging to
ride. Very much a novelty unicycle.
I have heard of the bearing setup that you mentioned. It sounds like a
lot of fun.
The closest I have got to it though is using my friends uni and riding
with the clamp unclamped. lol
It was quite fun, I almost manged to ride, take feet off the pedals,
then spin myself on the seat, and then land back facing the original
direction and pedal away, but I missed the pedal on the way around and
fell. It was fun trying it.
I cant do it on my nimbus II frame though, cause if I unclamp my
seatpost, it will fall through the frame and hit my tire.
