  3. I know 180, 270, 360, and 540 spin jumps have been done. Not too sure
    about 720 though, but it's likely.

    You can't get up and try it again if you don't fall first.

  5. Those are fun to do.
    What´s even funnier is to jump, spin yourself 180 degrees in the air,
    then land on the uni. Thats harder though.

  7. Presumably you can also do the 'inner jump mount' (I think i read shaun
    describing a trick called an inner spin or inner flip) where you spin
    the uni 180 one way, you spin 180 the other so you end up facing
    backwards but with the uni the right way round underneath you. Would be
    a fantastic mount.

  9. Lots of people have done that trick. It's actually pretty easy. I can do
    it to riding, to wheel walk, and once in a while into stand-up wheel
    walk backward.

    Still, good job if thought of it on your own.

  10. I actually find that mount easier then the regular suicide mount. For
    some reason I tend to grab my seat halfway through the air when I'm
    doing a suicide mount, but with a 180 mount, I can just keep hold of my
    seat regardless 🙂

  11. isnt that the kind of mount you are supposed to do before or while
    learning to do unispins?
