Hopping a Unicycle

Video Transcript

"In this clip we're going to talk about how to hop. This is for doing tricks. You can spin your unicycle, you can hop up and down curbs, you can hop off of things like tables, ledges, whatever you can think of. Hop over your friends. That's a fun one. So, I'm going to start out idling. Just rock the unicycle up underneath you. Before we talk about that, I should just say that where you're going to grab is right under the seat. Right here. You're just going to grab that. I grab it with my left hand. And you just hold onto that while you jump off the pedals. So I'm going to rock like this. I kind of, I lift myself off, off the seat so I can get a good grip on, on this. Get your pedals to where they're exactly like this, parallel to the ground, and that's where you're going to be hopping, just like that. So I start out like this, and I'm holding on to the seat, and where the pedals are parallel to the ground, I'm pretty much standing up all the way. And I go down a little bit to where I, I hit the seat and then I hop up. And you just hold that seat and that keeps unicycle with you. And make sure the pedals are parallel to the ground. Once you get that down, start hopping kind of quick, like this. You can go in circles, go one eighty."
