    one wheeled vehicle.

    I know why Tomsey is so good at backs and why Shaun owns at normal
    flips.
    It has to do with the gravitational pull. Like how the toilet flushes
    in the opposite direction down there. Well its easier down there to
    flip backwards then forwards

    From memory the guy who built it was working towards breaking the one
    wheeled vehicle land speed record. Hence turning wasn't much of a
    concern but speed was. I've seen footage of it going much faster :-)

    I remember reading on his site he was considering building another
    model to beat the speed record. However he's going to have a tough time
    beating the 'Maclean Rocket Roadster'
