fine forum - idling suggestions?

There's a video tutorial at www.unicycle.2ya.com you may be interested
in. It's in the "Basic Riding" section.

Good luck!
Andrew

Thanks Andrew for the link to your uni video tips. I just watched the
one on idling and I hope it will help.

Question: is IDLING ON A COKER with the large circumference nearly the
same as on a smaller wheel, like on your video?

Seems like the larger circumference might require that I travel a
greater distance back and forth, moving my whole body as well as my head
position, and more slowly.

You're absolutely right, you will have to move your head back and forth.
Still, it's good to maintain that pendulum motion a little. And yes,
you will have to go slower, and yes it is quite different. Almost
everyone will tell you idling a coker is much more difficult than a
smaller uni.

Any suggestions on LEARNING TO IDLE would be appreciated.

How big of a bunch have you been reading? Three days ago there was a
thread with the same question, and quite some suggestions were given.
