  1. Hey all I am looking to get another uni to practice a little Freestyle
    this winter and I noticed at UDC all the UNIs listed in freestyle are
    20" but under 24" they also list a Nimbus X 24" freestyle.
    So 20" or 24" that is the question?

  2. Actually, I have managed everything on level ten on my 24" unicycle,
    although I can only land side ride with the transitions about one in a
    hundred times.

    Although you can learn most freestyle tricks on a 24", if you're buying
    a unicycle specifically for freestyle, a 20" is almost certainly
    better, unless you're extremely tall.

  3. Since most uni's made for freestyle are 20', most people just buy those
    if they are looking for a quality 20'. Since I've used a 20' for
    freestyle my whole life, I never really thought about a 24' being a
    freestyle uni, or anything else over 20 as a freestyle. I suppose if
    someone grew up using a 24' as a freestyle uni, then they'd get really
    good at it. But I think 20' has better control, that's the reason
    they're more popular.
