Witch is the best ?

I think its best when there is a mixture of stuff, like in the section
of defect with kevin mcmullin and shaun and them. I like that there is
some really big stuff by kevin (like the 180 over the 8? set) then a
few minutes later Shaun does a backwards grind on a ledge to a double
flip.

So, I would say both and it would be even better if you combined them
like flips down huge sets and i think alex toms said he did a unispin
out of a handrail.

i think they are both good but they have to be mixed together other wise
you get bored quickly. but to answer the question i would say more
technical stuff keeps my interest level up.

Well freestyle can be tech but he is asking what would be good in a
street vid.

Fexnix said:

Big stuff looks more impressing on film.

I respect the tech guys more though.

I agree with that too, If someone that doesnt uni watches a movie like
defect its nice if you dont have to explain what each trick is and
whats going on. Like Sabin's varial, im sure its really hard but i
didnt even notice the filp the first 10 times i watched it.

tech stuff. Big drops are not too impressive unless it's an especially
incredible stunt. There is more skill involved in technical riding, so
I think it is better to watch.

I'd rather watch tech stuff. I'm not big into watching people jump sets
and grind stuff over and over again. I think there's a lot more variety
with some of the flatland stuff Dan Heaton was doing in Defect. If you
personally ride street, I'm sure that this differs.

In any case, the stuff that makes good video is well-cut, well-shot
flowing lines. Lots of complicated movement, and the more your frame
and feet are moving all over the place the cooler it looks.

WAit, sabin did a flip?

I had thought so, but I watched it in slow-mo and was like "nahhh...".
I will have to look again.

Oh, and, I'd rather see tech stuff I 'spose, but it's best to have a
little of both combined, a little tech with a little.....big..

Tech stuff but there is no way all tech is nearly ar good as tech with
Big(ish) sets. The two videos would never compareTech with Sets would
blow the tech video out of the warter. Any whay I hope this means we
will se a video from you soon.

[censored], I cant -believe- I missed that. I must have seen it more than 15
times.

Acctually, I can. It's really easy to miss. In fact, It wouldn't look
much different if he hadn't crankflipped.

Another thing about tech stuff vrs. going big, that with techy tricks
its a lot better if you throw them all in together, one after the
other. And combos.

Hey,
As for myself, I ride a lot bigger stuff than tech stuff, its just my
style. So I guess I have a lot of respect for people in the sense that
I understand how hard it is to do. As for a lot of the tech stuff, I
have respect for them in the sense that I just can't do most of it
haha. A mix of both is ideal, like someone said, but if I had to
choose, I would probably pick big stuff, just because I would
understand if I should be able to do it or not haha.

ok thank you all. My self I prefer to ride high impact stuff like Keivn
mcmullen does.. but I have been practicing tech sutf fas well.. and I
think you have to specialize in 1 or the other or else it wont be sexy.

personally i like both. they're both incredible and inspiring. although,
there is a thing that i've noticed. Freestyle looks better when you're
actually there witnessing it in person than it does on film.

I think that while specialization.. actually, let's call it 'focus', on
one area of strength is definitely a good way to get somewhere, it also
makes other areas of unicycling easier. My practice with sif for
freestyle has improved my seat out hops, and seat out hopping will
improve my sif for freestyle. In my experience, riding as many
different kinds of unicycles as you can get your hands on will help you
appreciate the extremes and find a good balance, and ultimately make it
easier to become a very good rider.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that you should keep other skills up,
because at some point they will help you in areas you didn't see them
helping at all. Learning to do things with both feet also falls into
this category.

I think most unicyclists would prefer watching technical stuff, but if
you're gonna be showing it to non unicyclists, they'd rather watch
'big' stuff.

I like watching both stuff.

It seems like most non-unicyclists are amazed if you hop on/off a
curb.🙄
I agree with what you said, I showed my friend the koxx one freestyle
video and then showed him the defect trailer and he liked the defect
trailer better probably because he didn't really understand how hard
the freestyle/tech is.

I definitely prefer tech, although I like watching people go big.

Non-unicyclists usually have no conception, as was noted above, of how
hard freestyle tricks are. I remember one time my brother and I were
riding together, and he was working on backwards riding and idling,
while I was practicing stand-up glide, sideways wheel walk, side ride,
etc. A couple of children asked my brother if he was a better rider
because he wasn't falling off as much. I also remember a child at the
local juggling club, who could just barely unicycle, being far more
impressed by one-footed riding than by coasting.
