  1. Anyone have a list of more tricks that I could work on for my 6'? I
    have 2 freemounts (climbing, povault), one foot ride, stomach ride,
    working on pedaling with my hands, backwards riding, trying to figure
    out how to do pirouettes.

  4. Frog Mount: Hold the giraffe vertically and jump up so that you land
    squatting on the pedals. It's scary, but doable.
    Seat in front/back/side, forward, backward, or idling.
    Backward one-footed.
    Backspins and frontspins, especially quickly in series.

    Some harder tricks which could conceivably be done are:
    Side ride
    Cross over riding and idling
    Sideways wheel walk
    Crank idle
    Side hopping
    Crank flips
    Hand pedalling sitting on the seat

    Sideways wheel walk

    You must have to have gumby legs or something for this? Maybe with
    stilts on...

    thebigo do you have any pointers for me to do the polevault mount...
    I've got a 6' semcycle and I didn't think it was possible on a 6
    footer. (I can't even come close)
