Not to try to correct you but when you say hovering do you mean idling?
JUst wondering.

i think he means levitating, approximately 3 feet off the ground 😉

i'd say you are somewhere between average and good, tho its really hard
to say using such unscientific words.

learn to wheelwalk in another 2 months and i'll say you're "great" 🙂

rocking back and forth while staying in the same place is called idling.
doing that with only one foot is called one foot idling. when you say
"go forwards across inch and a half concrete thing with eyes closed" do
you mean riding along it, or riding over it. what you're doing is pretty
average, but impressive since you've been (i'm guessing) out of touch
with all the helpful members of unicyclist.com. i think because of this
site, i've picked up skills a whole lot quicker. good tricks to learn
next include one foot riding, seat in front riding, backwards cirles,
and wheel walking.

You're a lot better than me, but i haven't had much practice time total,
though I've owned the unicycle about the same amount of time.

That's probably pretty good, how many hours you been riding for during
those four months.

What you don't say is how consistantly you can ride backwards with out
UPD or what mounts you can do, would be good to know for a gauge on how
well you're doing.

i mean riding allong it.
yeah nobody has shown me how to do stuff which is anoying because when
pople talk about things like wheel walking and so on i don't know
exactly what it looks like so i can't practice.
when wheel walking do you sit on the saddle and put your feet on the
tire and walk or do you stand on the tire and walk?

i don't really know, not a huge amount, when i first got it i practiced
for three days inside then i could go forwards but then i stopped for
some reason of which i don't know, i really got back into it at the end
of june, before then i did some whenever i could (which wasn't very
often) and could go forwards constantly and jump a little, now though i
try to practice everyday but resently it's been raining loads and i
don't really know how many hours.

whats UPD? i can ride quite constantly bacwards (usually) and i don't
really know any mounts other than the "normal one" (where you put your
foot on the peddal and sort of sit on the saddle and then get up)
