Uni "Slalom"

Thought it would be something different to set up cones and see if I could "slalom" through them, but not on a small unicycle, but the biggest one I have, with a 36 inch diameter wheel! Started with the cones about 3 feet apart and ended up with them barely 12" apart - 3x less than the width of the wheel!

Re: Uni "Slalom"

Very interesting sport! I had always wondered how to mount unicycles safely, and the video covers that well. Though it doesn't mention is how to stop and dismount, it doesn't much matter as I would surely end up falling and using my face to effectively brake .

You must be very skilled to not only manage the slalom but to do so with the cones so closely spaced.

That's different Terry!

Well done, especially with the closest cones ... that takes a good balance
