  1. I think you should just be greatful a vid is coming out (I noted the
    fact that that was an insult that i'm slow at putting out vids) I don't
    have to help anyone with anything. Or invent flip trick after flip
    trick to appeal to the nonrider.

    Also on the naming part of the tricks, when you can do them, the name
    memorizing gets really easy. I can easily tell you're not into flips at
    all TheObieOne since your "sick" trick, made all the sense it needed.
    Keep in mind names change from seat position, not the fact that you
    didn't do sa certain trick because of the way the seat was, would have
    been called something else. Seat in back also that's just silly obie.

    trey varial hickflip over an 8 set ummm... You really have to try
    harder, i've done that down an 11 set. Sorry.

    Trying my best to impress. It seems that some people think that flips
    are becoming "trick spam". I just think it's a way to make old school
    easy street harder.

  2. wow, that's impressive just thinking about. how many flip variations can
    you do, like a hundred?

    also, I would really like to see a video of this because I don't really
    understand it, but you don't have to.

  4. If a varial (or small spin if you will) is done with the uni and you
    spinning in opposite directions, then what is it if you both go the
    same way? IE, a 180 clockwise hoptwist with a 180 clockwise unispin.

  5. Wait, I thought with a varial/small spin/ 180/180 you do spin the same
    way as the uni, if you spin opposite ways then it is an inward unispin.

    right?

  7. if I could rename this thread it would be called "why Mike Clark hates
    street unicycling". 🙄 at everyone but obie, and no shaun he
    wasn't insulting you, just illuding to how dumb it is to waste space on
    the forum with "new vid coming" threads.

    OK, I am retarded, he spins counter-clockwise (you have to remember I
    was looking from downunder :p). You and Shaun are retarded too though
    coz the uni goes the same way. That's a 180trey in my books, so there.

    an inward big small flip thingys are, i've got no clue at all so i'm
    just guessing pretty much.

  10. i'm assuming you were jumping off of something, because otherwise how
    could you do a crankflip then a unispin ... nevermind i just got it. 😄
    for a second there i thought you had to do a crankflip, then a unispin,
    but now i understand you can do them both at the same time.

    but were you jumping off of something? just curious.

    One point I did fail to mention (this is is my fault) is direction. I
    spin the uni clockwise, but rotate counterclock.

    You'd think so, but you'd be wrong.

    unifreak7 said:

    Varial = Spinning the opposite way as the uni

    In the video, for the FVF you hoptwist counter, and also unispin
    counter. So, what does that rename the trick to?

  12. Well This was a great trick to go down in my driveway. I believe I was
    snackin on some apple sauce watching tv and I heard shaun SCREAMING (in
    the video) so I ran out. (You can see my on the lake side when is he
    saying "I finally got it" I run out on the deck. Little did i know a
    full varial had been thrown down. Saw the footage and it was nutty.

    wow

    I love you shaun.

    P.S. Pete you suck

  13. Wow this is getting crazy. Well first of all I didn't say the uni was
    going the same direction (which it is but that is completely pointless)
    the unispin is my BLIND spin wiht varials. I'm spinning it my unnatural
    way when I varial, check any 720 vid out, it's going the opposite
    direction with any unispin as the varial unispin, but it has my
    dominant twist direction. Get it? Not this same direction opposite
    direction stuff. I'm talking about dominance. In smallspins, the uni is
    spinning the dominant way, but the twist is BLIND! To me, it's easy, i
    guess i've been around it for about a year now.

    I'm sorry you hate street riding mike. But thank you for inventing the
    Crankflip, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be where I am now. But the
    naming is the same reason why I love street riding. Weird.

    p.s. I love you too Isaac. "Billy come get your sandwiches."

    Damn private jokes :p

    That is one sweet move, watching it pulled off is great. I love the
    way you hold on to the saddle to allow it to move. thats a real
    technical trick.

    I'm not getting involved with the naming and such. I thought you were
    right shaun, but now I'm just confused.
