You could get all those things within a couple of weeks. Set harder
goals. 🙂

Hmm... I don't graduate until the 24th of June...

As for goals... I just bought a muni, so I want to start riding on the
numerous hiking trails around the area...

I really want to get my gliding down better (faster)... I thought I was
doing pretty good, until I rode with Kris Holm... maybe my goal should
be to stop comparing myself to him🙁

I really want to get better at rail riding... especially freemounting on
rails. I have to ability to actually ride, but any rail thats over a
foot off the ground just seems impossible.. I guess its just a
confidence factor.

I also hope to see my friends and family as much as possible this
summer, before I head off to college...

Forrestunifreak... sounds like you got a pretty good list to me. I also
would like to learn 180 unispins off of drops.

Gliding,
Unispins in general
doing things down drops (no footers, 360s, stuff like that.)
Hop height at least 26", any method
Not break my uni
Something freestyle, preferably that will improve my overall balance for
muni etc. (besides the stuff that I'll learn on the way to gliding)
Make it down a specific crazy hill. Wait, 2 specific crazy hills.
Get the guts to do a specific dropgap line (easy. I've already done most
of it, there's just this one crappy landing I need to do.
Improve pedal/crank grabs
Learn more street.
EDIT: ooh. Grind handrails, maybe. Forgot that one.

There's a New Years Resolution thread like this somewhere, I'm gonna
find it....
'HERE' (http://tinyurl.com/aevhx)

Quoted message said:

-Originally posted by me, in the other thread-
*land a unispin consistently
do a 360 hopspin
get to level, say, seven. Or maybe eight, I'll see.
Beat Brian in the Moscow Mountain Madness bike race*

Well, I already can do a 180 unispin. But I don't care much about a 360
hopspin anymore.... I'll make a new list instead (:

Land a 360 unispin
Land a 360 unispin consistently
Learn to do at least a 180 unispin off a drop
Increase my seat out hop height by a LOT
and probably rolling hop height too
Get to level seven
Get seat drag down really good, and pick the seat up from it

EDIT oh yeah, and I GOTTA beat Brian in the Moscow Mountain Madness bike
race on our uni's. Shouldn't be hard because this year he'll be on a
29er and I'll be on a Coker.

Doesn't leave much time to unicycle when you work 50+ hours a week. 🙁
But I plan on working on hop height, basic muni stuff, wheelwalk, get 1
footing down pat, learn some more mounts, for starters.

I'm going to keep working on my new year's resolutions, some of which I
can do fairly well, but none of which are completely solid with
transitions:

Quoted message said:

1. Get solid level 8.
2. Solid sideways wheel walk.
3. Coast 50+ meters.
4. Side ride.
5. Stand-up wheel walk.

Also I'm going to try to get good at stand-up glide, and learn backward
seat drag, and just get better at freestyle in general, especially the
stuff on levels nine and ten.

By the end of the summer, hmm.

I'm going for:

unofficial (woo self-judging!) level 5
owning and being able to freemount a 6 foot giraffe
learning to seat-out hop
ride down and hop up reasonable sets of stairs

Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself. But you guys who have been at it for
years have inspired me to go at it full force, to try and catch up 😄

I can't stay off the damn thing though, so I might as well push hard
while I'm at it. Man I love unicycles.

Get my muni fixed (parts on order), muni like mad all over NH, as much
of Quebec as I can. Film any good parts, and post the vid for all to
enjoy 😄
Oh yeah, learn to do higher hops/drops (since my uni will in theory not
break 😉) and see if I can land a 180 unispin on my muni... so close...

Pedal grabs? Backwards riding? Improve on all things uni? 😉

its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will
remain.

I only get six weeks holidays... which are in 1 month... But I want to
learn to:
Do rolling 360s off big drops
360 Unispin consistently
Increase my hop height by say 10cm rolling (already at 80cm so might be
hard work).
Increase my dodgy side hop of about 65-70cm to 80cm consistent
Rolling hop the big blue table at school consistently (77.5cm and it's
scary!!!)
Increase my gap to 2.5m (from 2m)
STOP WASTING TIME ON THE COMPUTER PLAYING LOUSY BORING FLASH GAMES!!!

as far as i want. I like some of these goals, i gotta learn some crank
flips and perfect my drop no footers and drop unipsins, I got most the
other stuff, and some hand rails, but that might conflict with hte not
injuring myself part....yeah

My first goal was to ride 1 mile on my uni (20" Torker LX) without any
UPDs. Today, success! 1.03 miles, according to the computer. The
reward I've been promising myself was to order a Coker, and I just
clicked the order button moments ago.

To celebrate, I did my first ever venture "offroad". It was actually
not even a dirt road, just a road so covered in dirt and gravel that it
took 100 meters+ before I realized it wasn't a dirt road. Did a couple
of free moounts, rode around, finished with a ride down a reasonably
steep ramp section (also all dirt and rock covered). Woot!

Now I have to come up with more goals... Should be easy, I've only been
riding for one month, exactly!

All of these sound pretty good. I have added another to my list.

Learn seat drag where its almost perfect and learn to pick it back up.
