  2. Hey man,

    You've got some weird ideas. haha. As for the 90 to the tire off a
    picnic table, hmmm, probably wouldn't be too hard, but it could easily
    wreck the rim, or anything. lol.

    360 body variel - nothing I know of
    540 of any kind - hmm, unispin, a lot, hoptwist, couple people.
    backwards wheelwalk with one foot behind the frame, one foot in front -
    koosh koosh. Not too difficult
    1 rev crank flip while doing a 360 uni spin - yep
    backwards wheelwalk seat out in front - probably, lol, i don't know
    though
    backwards glide - Yep, not sure how long they went though.
    1 footed piroette - not sure
    no foot on frame coast - yep
    720 uni spin - yep
    grind forwards then do a 180 into a backwards grind - nope,
    wheel walked down stairs - hahah, nope not that i know of
    glided down stairs - hahah, why? but yeah, i don't know of anyone.

  4. Watch defect. That eliminates about half of your list.

    He did it at unicon12 freestyle expert finals to!
    Seat in front backwards wheelwalk
    Seat in back wheelwalk/one footed wheelwalk..
    Seat on side wheelwalk
    'Ryan Woessner at unicon 12, freestyle expert finals!'
    (http://life.csbnet.se/~ulfc/porr/unicon12/ryanwoessner.wmv) 9.6 MB

    Quite cooky if you ask me, much more impressive to do it in front of an
    audience at a final at unicon than in front of a camera.. a camera
    allows as many retakes as you want! 🙂

  10. I know that everything on the list has been done, by several people,
    except for the gliding downstairs. But someone could have done that
    too.

    no foot on frame coast

    There is a picture of Sem trying that on John Foss' 'Things Not To Do'
    (http://www.unicycling.com/things/index.htm) page. That would be
    possible with a customized saddle. It would have to be a deep saddle
    with a short back rest so you could get leverage and some control of
    the unicycle. Or possibly you could pinch your legs together like you
    do when jumping hands free (like when jumping rope). Instead of doing
    it starfish style like Sem tried you'd squeeze your thighs together to
    grip the seat and keep your feet away from the tire and pedals.

    Julien's standing on the seat coast has already been mentioned. That
    required a custom saddle too.

    Well I know that coasting down stairs has been attempted and at least
    almost done successfully. There was a video a couple of years ago of
    Trevor doing it.
