johnfoss said:Your profile says you're 22 years old. I knew at least 9 people who
could ride 2-wheelers 25 years ago. Don't forget IUF founder Jack
Halpern, who is credited as the "inventor" of the cycle within the
unicycling community (others surely did it 100 years ago). I learned in
1982 along with other members of my unicycle club (Redford, in
Michigan). There were probably five of us in Michigan who could ride
them in 1983. I actually performed on one (badly) in 1982 at the USA
convention and won the Pairs competition. A fortuitous comedy of errors
made our messed-up act look more intentional than it was...For performing, the 3-wheeler will look approximatel 1/3 more
impressive to an audience. Add extra points because it's also taller.
Put decorations in the wheels so it's easy to see them rotating in
opposite directions. Make sure you idle on it, and if you can, practice
walking the wheel up there.Caution: 3-wheelers are heavy, and dismounts can damage them or
bend/knock them out of alignment. Treat it like a fragile machine and
it will probably hold up longer.As a performer, having an act is more important than having cool props.
The first expenditure I'd make, based on the photos you posted, would be
for a new seat!Here's some 'old pictures of multi-wheelers'
(http://www.unicycling.com/garage/multi.htm).
I don't understand how that half wheeled unicycle works, and one with
no wheel? 😕
