you must be thinking of something else, their is no traction
underneath the vehicle, as both rider and unicycle are in
the air. -mike

onetrack - Up their OWS says generally. I don't think he was
refering to a uni trick. He was saying how its already used
with cars and bikes and stuff.

OWS - I think that is the guy. I watched it like 14 times
straight in a row and the sound annoyed the hell out a me.
I'll try and find it.

sorry dude. but backwards riding is fakie. people are
already using the term. ive hopped a couple small sets
fakie, and dan heaton has done some fakie stuff in universe
2. haha too bad man. but when names already come out, theres
not much you can do. i don't like the term unispin, but
theres no way to stop it. or koosh-koosh... i wish we got
rid of that name.

undertaker, tailwhip, funcky chicken, McCircles, flair,
surfing, tire-tap... No BMX is clear....

But that koosh-koosh, I always wondered where this name
came from?

That sounds pretty awesome. The closest thing I've seen to
it is someone did a rolling hop onto something, but took
his feet off and let the wheel spin 360, then did a jump
mount off of the obstacle. But yours is like 10 billion
times as cool.

Allegedly from the sound that your shoe soles make while
they scuff the tyre.
