  3. Congratulations! Gliding is one of the most enjoyable unicycle skills
    you can learn, and it opens up lots of possibilites. Before you know it,
    you'll be zipping down hills at top speed. It's great fun!😄

    10 feet in five minutes is quite impressive.:eek: Had you been doing a
    lot of one-footed wheel walk previously?

  6. Is the WW step really necessary to get to gliding? I can ride with 1
    foot but not WW yet, and I want to glide now! 😄

    It pretty much is necessary, because if you can glide before you know
    how to wheel walk one footed, then you will know how to wheel walk one
    footed now. gliding is pretty much one footed wheel walking, just not
    moving your foot.

  11. Gliding is a lot of fun! I have recently(in the past couple months)
    learned myself. The only tips I would have for 1 foot wheel walking is
    that it is easier on a flat frame with a wider tire. It took me a while
    to learn 1 footed wheel walking and then from there it is experimenting
    with pressure and the right shoes.
