I, personally, don't ride a uni but my son does, as well as various others
in our juggling club. Don't hold that against me, I do think I'll be trying
it some day however, I digress.
One of the guys in our juggling club has come up with some questions *I*
thought
could be answered in this newsgroup. Here they are:
1. He wants to try riding his uni on, either, a slackrope or tightrope. Does
anyone have any experience with this? Does one work better than the other? Is
there a special tire or wheel to use for this? We were thinking that if you
took off the tire and wrapped something like grip tape on it that that would
help with keeping a good contact surface between the wheel and the rope.
Anyone have any other ideas?
2. How about solo, unsupported mounting on a giraffe uni? He just bought one
last week and looks like he'll be pretty comfortable with it. Right now he
need some help getting up on it. Should he get himself a small stepladder?
I checked the faq and didn't see anything there in reference to these questions
so I was hoping someone here could shed some light on them.
Thanks,
Tim
