Someone teach this guy to ride uni trials... (jump height question)

I have no idea about the 20% rule but I bet that guy has spent some time
on a slack line.

I can jump well over 50% of my side hop without a uni. I think the rule
should be 20% -less-?

You sure?

I've watched some biketrials vids where the riders actually tuck the
wheel to the side of them, its kind of hard to explain, but their butt
goes to one side of the wheel to let them tuck more. Maybe thats where
uni trials needs to go, because once you tuck the wheel to your butt,
your vertical up can only take you so far.

I think that 20% rule is talking about actual vertical, not how much you
can tuck to get up objects. he'd still be able to jump pretty high if
he learned to uni, though.

You'll get hurt if you don't land it.
