UK trick clips game

Lucas1wheel · 2006-05-22T15:48:08+00:00

Ok heres the idea and i mean this in the nicest way possible, us uk riders are pretty slow on the catch up in general there are some that are keeping up with the standard (i'm talkin mainly street here) eg Mike and Dale but othere than that were falling behind and I think that trick clips game works really well and probably improves people really quickly. but we cannot join in because were not good enough yet. So I was thinking we do a uk version with just single tricks, only flatland but anything flatland. It will work like the skate game SKATE but we will spell UNI and maybe later change to unicycle see how it goes. I think we should try and keep the standard high but no double flips just yet mike save it for later. The idea is the first person posts a trick on video and then from the time its posted everyone has 24 hours to get the same trick posted. maybe we will make that longer but for now lets say 24 hours. After one trick has been posted and 24 hours has pasted,m everyone that hasnt posted the trick gets a letter eg. U. Are you lot up for trying this and shall i start -- Lucas1wheel ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lucas1wheel's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11476 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/49659

Every played the multi-player game HORSE in any of the tony hawk games?
he's talking about that. It's also refered to by skaters as POSER.
Normally you do this in person with people and it works as follows.
Someone does a trick, and then you attempt to copy it, if you can copy
it then you're safe and you dont get a letter. if you fail, then you
get the letter P, this continues untill someone spells out POSER and
then they are the loser.
He's proposing an internet version of the game where someone hosts a
short video clip of a move, and then everyone has 24 hours to attempt
it and send in a clip showing that they've matched it. If you fail, you
get a letter. Same as POSER.
Get it?
Sounds fun guys, I'd join but 1) I'm not from the UK and 2) I've yet to
even get a unicycle:o
lol, good luck

Oh and the word you spell is usually negative, so maybe try something
other then Uni, perhaps PEDESTRAIN or something.

Ok i suggest we use combos cos now that i think of it I think we would
run out of tricks fairly quickly, you can use single tricks aswell but
if you want you can use combos maximum 5 tricks
I will start here is mine
jump mount
180 uni spin
uni spin
seat drop
leg wrap
oh and the word is BISHOP
heres the 'link' (http://tinyurl.com/grw3o)
Let the game begin!

Here's my reply and I believe I'm the first...does that mean that I can
create a new combo, I aint in charge here, bt that sounds good to me
and I think thats how they do it in the other game.
Anyway here's my clip, sorry its dark, filmed it late at nite.

I don't get the point of limiting it to only people in the UK, but

It's the name I was born with man, nothing I could do, glad to see
another guy rocking it aswell, cause apparently it's a unisex name and
theres some semi-famous designer chick on TV who also has it. Oh well
such is life, most people think it's a pretty cool name, myself
included.
Oh and my intials are CGI, beat that.

sorry spencer but we are just not quite good enough to join in on the
trick clips game, maybe we should say any nationality but this game is
for people that aren't confident enough to join in on the other game

Yeah, there's a limit to the technical ability of UK riders compared
with others on here, so when the tricks game starts with '360 unispin
to rolling back crankflip to 180 body varial...' we're all a bit
scuppered. I don't think a UK rider has ever posted in one of the other
clips game threads.
Loose.
