What are 'idles' and 'wheel walking'?



Idling is rolling back and forth so that you stay on your unicyle in a
stationary position.


Wheel walking is when you move your feet onto the top of the wheel
instead of the pedals, and move the unicycle by pusing (Walking) your
feet across the top of the wheel.

I'm sure there are videos of both in the gallary somewhere.

There are some explanations of the skills that are in the 10 skill
levels for freestyle unicycling are here:
'IUF Skill Level list' (http://www.unicycling.org/iuf/levels/)
'Unicycling.org Skill Level List' (http://tinyurl.com/f9a)

Unfortunately those lists only cover the skills that are part of the
skill levels and the lists don't describe every skill involved.
However, the lists do have some good descriptions of some of the skills
involved.

Tammy and Tanya Marsh have a nice unicycling skills page with
descriptions of some skills.
'Tammy's and Tanya's Uni Page' (http://marsht.tripod.com/)

If you want to see the skills being done then get the video 'One Wheel -
No Limit' (http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=345). It's
not an instructional video. It's more of a demonstration video of lots
of different skills. You'll see lots of skills done and then go "Wow! I
never thought of trying that before. I'm going to try that now".
