You could try a unispin or going down drops or stairs, but that may be
the extent of an ultimate wheel.

I successfully went off a 3 inch drop off the side of my driveway.😄
I'll try something bigger when i get better. How would you unispin
though? becuase when you hop you have to hold onto the tire so you're
croached down alot which would make it really hard to clear the wheel
with your feet as you spin it around.

I did the same thing as you, only with a 24" uni. It works okay I
guess...

I havent ridden it in forever, but I've done a 12" drop on it (its
easier to hold the tire and jump off) and I could hop up a small
curb...

A rolling mount is pretty easy. And it looks cool. Roll it along with
your hand and step on one foot at a time. Also, a jump mount/suicide
mount (I guess they're the same thing) and kickupmount.

Other than that, I can't do much tricks... I tried a UWspin a few
times, but gave up for good reason. One thing you could do, maybe, is
go from a normal unicycle to the UW...

what about pirouettes, or 180s 360s etc, no footers, jumping without
holding onto the wheel, different kids of grabs, hopping idle, idle. i
dont think any of these should be impossible. they may be extremely
difficult but shouldnt be impossible.

Heres a picture of me riding it. I put on some shin gaurd things because
the wheel rubs against my leg when i mount and now i have a cut there.

Here are some ideas of things I have seen other riders do on an ultimate
wheel
-ride backwards
-frontspin (Ride backwards then spin around into riding forwards
carrying on in a straight line)
-backspin (same as frontspin by you end up riding backwards
-hopping without holding the tyre (one way to do this is to have your
pedals vertical and hook the top foot UNDER the top pedal).
-skipping
-idling
-crankflip (no kidding, I've seen footage of a guy jump off his
ultimate wheel, over a bar while it rolled underneath it, then he
landed back on it)
-jump from one moving ultimate wheel to another (rolling)
-180 body spin (jump up, rotate your body 180 degrees and then land
back on the wheel)

Some of those skills are very hard. Hopping without holding the tyre
is probably the best on to start on.

Theoretically it's possible but AFAIK it hasn't been done. Someone has
to try real hard.

Has been done. On a slackrope for that matter.
