  2. I voted trials, but only because nobody voted for it yet. I was going to
    vote street, even though I ride every single one of those on the list
    and like them all.

    i guess it doesnt really count as street cuz im not doing crankflips

    Please, stop saying that. Crankflips are only one trick. Street does
    not equal just crankflips!

    for the record, ive only said it once! i didnt know there was such
    sensitivity surrounding the subject! although in shaun's tutorial he
    says the crankflip "is considered the base street trick"

    ehh i didnt make this up but it takes twice the man (or woman) to ride
    half the bike and im sure everybody agrees

    unicycle isnt a hobby, its a life style

  6. I love freestyle, but sadly I hardly ever get time to practice, so my
    skills are starting to deteriorate.

    Of course, but once in a while it's nice to express your mood of the
    moment.

    I realized that i would have liked to vote for the 4 possibilities.
    As i live in a big city muni is not easily accessible, i like doing
    some freestyle and trials to later be able to do tricks on trials
    obstacles... i voted street.

    I would consider a hop to be the base street trick. And if you think
    you're not doing street cause your not flipping, I guess there's no
    street riding in U2.

  16. i'm pretty sure you can still say you ride street even if one particular
    street trick you don't do.

  17. Never seen Dan Heaton do a crankflip. Does that mean he rides freestyle?

    What's everyone's obsession with crankflips?! They're really awsome and
    take a lot of skillz but they aren't everything! Without playing the
    "it's all subjective" card, how can a single trick be the base? Is
    everything in streetriding a variation of a crankflip? No.

    So, to all my non crankflipping friends: Don't crankflip! There's
    plenty of incredably inventive things you can do without crankflips 😉
