  1. Hey guys, can anyone help me out here. I'm got a list of tricks and just
    wondering who in the UK can do them.
    This is as far as my knowledge goes:

    Doubleflip: Dale + Mike
    Hickflip: Dale, Lucas, Mike
    180 flips: Jason, Dale, Mike
    Backflips: Mike
    270 Unispin: Jason, ???
    360 Unispin: Jason, Dale, Lucas, Mike, Trevor
    450 Unispin: no one
    540 Unispin: no one
    Smallspin: Jason, Lucas, Mike
    Bigspin: Jason
    One Footers: ???

    Excuse my ignorance if I left anyone out, it's either because I've
    never seen you ride or I've never seen you do that trick, either way,
    this thread should sort that out. I hope to see lots of corrections to
    the list, I doubt very much that's it!!!

    Cheers,

    Jas

  5. the lucas whip? as I am neither from london or very private I have no
    idea what this is about. Care to share as now I am very curious.

    Jas

    P.S. dont be distracted by this off topic conversation, just keep it
    coming with the original question.

    270 Unispin: Jason, ???

    How does a 270 unispin work?

    I'm not into street style riding but a 270 suggests a 3/4 rotation of
    the uni so do you land with your feet on the tyre or on the spokes or
    do you move around so you are landing in line with the uni?

    Plumsie.

    You land on the tire. It's just like hopping on the tire 'cept you spin
    the uni 270 and land on it.

    Leo, I know I've only put street moves down but that's all I wanted to
    know. If I was to put down every single move from every single style,
    it would take a long long time and people would have to scroll through
    pages and pages.

    Keep it coming.

  11. so far the updates are as follows,

    Doubleflip: Dale + Mike
    Hickflip: Dale, Lucas
    180 flips: Jason, Dale, Mike
    Backflips: Dale + Mike
    270 Unispin: Jason, ???
    360 Unispin: Jason, Dale, Lucas, Mike, Trevor
    450 Unispin: no one
    540 Unispin: no one
    Smallspin: Jason, Lucas, Mike
    Bigspin: Jason
    One Footers: ???

    This is probably still wrong, *but what are you lot gonna do about it,
    huh?* Wait a minute, you're gonna correct it, so keep it coming UK
    people, this is looking very bad and depressing if only 3 people in the
    UK can do smallspins.

  15. Why not add in trials achievements like static and rolling gaps and
    hops? The heights and distance of them and such, as well as pedal/crank
    grab heights possibly. It's still showing what UK riders can do right?

    As for all of those tricks above, i don't think I can do one. :p

  17. I think just merge SIF and seatin together, just have a rolling and
    static category.

    Dropping need not be included because it's not really 'skill' like the
    other moves, it's more like once you've got the basic technique, you
    can do ANY height, it just depends if you feel like it or not.

    So yeah, just merge the seatin and sif stuff together to give:

    Static sidehop:
    Rolling hop:

    Static gap:
    rolling gap:

    rolling pedal grab:
    static pedal grab:

    Is that riding backwards to flip or riding backwards to backflip? I'm
    guessing it's backflip. Does that mean we're talking static under
    backflips?
