That was kind of an 'aren't you lucky you landed on a tire'
type of expression

If you in windows media play go to Play -> Play Speed -> Fast. At least
it worked for me 🙂 ANd you can make it even slower aswell, :P

But ouch that looks kinda painful.

Oh yeah and this is slightly off topic but it's good that
unicycles.com.auunicycles.com.auOpen ↗ is open. Nice to see an
australian site there, shame you're in brisbane (is it?)
thoguh. Oh well, I got 1 friend here who I can ride with.

HOLY COW, ANDREW!! Are you alright? It looks like a bright
colored fluid squirting from your face at the end of that
clip. I hope not. But, if so, better you than me.

Hey A_C, do you have a non-slow motion version for us? I
just made one then. Here it is - tinyurl.com2avzrOpen ↗ .
I had to go to a lot of trouble to make the little clip. As
I've mentioned a few times, I can't transfer things properly
from my camera to the computer until we get a new computer
(very soon). What I have to do is capture it frame by frame
meaning I have to keep manually stepping it forward so the
computer can keep up. Otherwise it captures about 1 frame
per second. So I ended up with a really long video. Then I
had to split it up into the individual frames and save them
as separate videos and piece them together with VirtualDub
into one clip. Anyway, it's done now.

Robbie,

It's great to see another Australian here! Tell us a bit
about yourself, what sort of riding are you into? Are you
goiung to go to the next UniNats? Did you go to last year's
UniNats? I know it's a long way to travel but are you
interested in coming to the Australian MUni Weekend? A
friend and I are organising it...it's here in Brisbane.

Yes it's great the unicycles.com.au is finally up and
running. I'm actually working for Gary (the owner)
assembling unis and lacing wheels and so on.

As for other riders in Perth, have a look here -
tinyurl.com4laaOpen ↗ I found you 4 more! Just do a little
search for 'perth'. Plus there will be heaps more
unicyclists than you think. I met two guys who unicycle at
the trials competition yesterday.

Nice to meet you.

Andrew

Greg (I missed your post),

I'm fine, thanks. The bright red fluid came a little
later...luckily from inside my nose. 🙂 All I got was a
little bit of skin off the nose and underneath it and a
bruised nose...that and a good video. Strangely the bike
trials riders seemed to respect me even more after the face
plant. 😕

Thanks Andrew.

Now can you do one in reverse, 3/4 speed?

And then....

(what a horrible process you have to go through!)

Thanks for finding me those other guys Andrew, and yes there
would be more not on there because I wasn't (am now) and my
friend who I ride with has.

I didn't make it to the UniNats last year since I wasn't
riding then, and won't be able to make it this year either.
Yes Brisbane is a long way, I'm 14 years old still going to
school and I'm definately not good enough to go to anything
yet. I feel as though I might be more interested in Trials
riding but not sure yet, been riding since 20th December
2003, so yes I'm not very good yet, but I'm getting better.

Anyway I'd love to go to one of those events, but yes I've
only been unicycling a short time, and I'm not good enough
and not enough money, lol.

But thanks anyway, and I hope you face gets better.

Oh well Andrew, if you wanna know a bit more about me, I'm
currently learning to hop. Was trying it yesterday and had
my first painful injury. Next time I go to hop but try to
bail out half way I won't take both feet of the pedals mid
air when the unicycle is gonna land perfectly upright.

Stuff like that happens to me often. Nothing that
spectacular, but nothing to scoff at either. I just wish I
had a camera on me when it happens so I can see some of it.

Nice Work!
