  1. I was fortunate to be on holiday in Germany a small town near Frankfurt
    this summer, when the German Cup for unicycling was on.

    I went along and saw some very good unicycling. The event was devided
    into two parts track and free style. I sat and watched the free style.
    It turned out to be predonantly young girls taking part. This is a sharp
    contrsat to my experance in the UK where uni is perdomently male
    orintated and more trials/muni.

    Whats more I never even saw a juggling ball there. What is the ratio of
    juggling unicycleists and those who only uni?

    From the exhaustive survey of the 6 german people I know (not through
    unicycling), 1 in 6 germans ride unicycles and none of them juggle.

    It does seem like it's really big out there, although I think Neumunster
    where my mums friends live is a bit of a hot-spot for unicycling.

  5. My two sons and I all juggle and unicyle including juggling and club
    passing on unicycles. My youngest was even doing 2 diablos yesterday
    while idling on his uni. My sons are also very good freestyle, trials
    and mountain uni riders. I ride freestyle and trials but I haven't
    started muni yet.

  7. Juggling doesn't necessarily get you a big score enhancement in a
    Freestyle routine. That is, assuming the folks there are using the IUF
    rules (new or old). Though you can improve the Presentation half of
    your score (old rules), it doesn't do anything for the Difficulty
    side.

    A lot of unicyclist can juggle, but in unicycle clubs, if they're not
    connected to juggling clubs, the ratio can be pretty low. And in places
    where unicycling is mostly not related to juggling, like Japan, I would
    guess that the vast majority of unicyclists do not juggle.
