How to Ride a Unicycle : How to Get On a Unicycle

[MaztahkillaaAaAaaH]

Now try to do a whellie on that

[whydidthetilda]

Chair, friend, wall.

I see, going up in intelligence then.

[13mordeth]

Would be smart to put a link to the next clip somewhere. Perhaps in the video description....or in an annotation at the end of the video. Just makes sense.

[WesternPickles]

instead of a wall friend or a chair i used

my hamster...... it didnt live long

[sabrinaheath808]

what if i dont have a friend to help me get up

[HeyitsWenzel]

Is his tire flat?

[Hobbes292]

played a drinking game with my friends. Every time he says "alright" we take a shot. 2 of my 3 friends got alcohol poisoning.

I am currently learning how to ride a unicycle, and instead of rocking (and the rest of the seemingly unneccesary training), im just lapping a tennis court at my local park, incase you guys want to see what it looks like, check out the vid on my channel.

[Skylasbeastaccount]

@Clementinepics I've been doing the same exact thing. I hold on to the fence and try to make it to the other side. There are two playing courts in the fence and I try to ride across them. For my third day I managed to get over half way

[AO2Airsoftx]

you can make the vid in high qualtly but you have to take off the tire on the bike

[hostilityy]

DAMMIT I JUST BROKE MY HEAD.........AHHHH FUCK

[TwistyTiesGH]

Use a friend to get up the first time, he says. *giggle*

[Imagineim]

@TwistyTiesGH *giggle* Such a dirty mind! ;p

[jtack19791]

Dear Jeff Gordon, Thank you for teaching me how to get on a unicycle. I look forward to having a great NASCAR season. - Love, jtack

[Rogueye]

He looks like that skinny guy from "gardens of the night".

[jeffery2343]

@gokukels ok then

[enrique7147851]

fuck..anyone know where to find a vid on how to ride one thats not from expertvillage...they dont know what the fuck theyre teaching

[jeffery2343]

if im 5'2 is it ok if i have a 20'

[5hinRyu]

@jeffery2343 sure is

[rubiksweekly]

[patty903]

ok, who would laugh if that chair went a little bit farther down and fell and he fell with it? hahahaha

[Naedidit]

I recommend you use a friend to get you up!! haha priceless!

[AwesomeCoasters]

wtf is wrong with expertvillage????

Why the fuck are their tutorials split in 1-2 min parts that you have to search for and figure out their order????

[skidrum11]

Hey, does anyone else have issues doing a regular mount...as in having the seat jam into your..parts? I use a reverse mount (the wheel starts behind me) which works well, but was just wondering...

[Tizzzanner]

i cant see shit! fucking take the words away its fucking gay wats the fucking point in a video if all its only words!

[BlindRepression]

@Tizzzanner Click the CC button at the bottom of the video player... the words will go away

[draco3113]

i find it easier to start at 9 o clock becayse it rolls the unicycle under neath me, and then i dont have to jump onto it lol

[lizzieswe]

@draco3113 I kinda do the same. I have my foot at 9 o'clock but a hop onto the uni with no weight at the foot that's already on the uni. So that I can ride away quickly ;)

[blackout48ccs2]

what is the best size tire to start with

[justice2016]

@blackout48ccs2 it depends on how big or small u r....... if ur taller than 4 feet and 7 inches or are then u should ride a 16 inch-20 inch. for taller people a 22- 26 inch would be good

[blackout48ccs2]

@justice2016 k cool

[ducksocks]

omg thanks for posting this. i tried to get on for like 1/2 and i was like 'damn i must be retarded and uncoordinated'.  i was trying to get on from the side, like a bike or a horse (which doesn't work in case you were wondering : P)then i watched this vid and it magically worked like the 2nd time.

[anthony342]

@ducksocks funny you should say that ,,, i was watching powis today yesterday and tom jones was talking about the exact same thing

[MsTeleological]

alright? alright? okay? alright? alright? alright? alright? alright? alright? alright? okay? alright? alright?

[DarthVaderVoldemort]

lmao

[Curlyfunksta]

@MsTeleological omg you made my realise that know it bothers the fuck outta me! lol! :P

[skatexxxmatt1408]

@MsTeleological ok

[KanzlerM]

Lookup "Curb Method".

Basically, you stand on a curb (or pallet) with the wheel backed up against it, then it can't roll backwards. Next use a small rock as a wheel chock, then later you can free mount.

From Gregg Vivolo's book "Ride the Unicycle"

[Hackrrr]

3-9 FTW

[MrUnitard95]

it´s easy just go with ur guts and you will make it

[AnythingButSchool]

Guys its not hard. I only riden mine 5 times and i can peddle like 100 times then i bail coz i get near an edge and wanna grab onto it

[howdy832]

he sounds/looks like Ashton Kutcher

[RandomlySlithered]

@howdy832 that;s exactly what I said xD, but he makes sense :D

[destin325]

i thought the exact same thing he is definitely a Ashton Kutchers Double for sure.

[bobbywotsit]

Ok this video is completly wrong. It's impossible to get on at 6 o'clock and even he in the video rocks back to 7 o'clock to get on. If you start the pedal at about 8 o'clock (7 for some 9 for others) and tuck the seat under you as you move your weight onto the pedal you're lifted up over the wheel and makes it much easier to balance. This guy chats bull

[cardboardfrog]

its not impossible its just not as easy, which would make telling people who are learning it, somewhat unnessacary

[JugglerUni]

dude I always get on at six a clock it's not that hard or are you just not good enough to do that yet :)

[waldofaldo120]

i always start at 9oclock though

its easier for me

[unicycleboyy1]

i can ride for abought 18 pedals how can i ride for longer i dont hold on to a fence

[emmal78910]

i have a 5 ft unicycle an theres no how to get in a unicyle thats about 3 in taller then vid if u no can u tell me couse um iv had fora year an still  cant get on it

[scrow619]

Um? a ladder ;} but seriosly a ladder next to a building.

[schwartzie84]

i start at 9:00

[AKx4]

I have the same unicycle.

[qtip198]

he's using a chair because the only time he see's his friends is at the full house reunion episode

[CheesyCheese01]

I can't stop laughing--It's John Stamos!

[BurnFatNotOil]

is that a 24 inch or 26 inch unicycle??

[Ragnaer]

looks like a 24

[cocopops149]

12 o'clock ftw!

[omzzzzz]

kinda sounds like Ashton Kutcher. lol =]

[meatwad376]

yeah dude i thought the same thing

[WWWQDD]

:))

[meatwad376]

((:

[austinpiper]

@omzzzzz watch olan rogers he sounds EXACTLY like ashton kutcher

[FutureDJHero]

@omzzzzz might be a wannabe

[addmeful]

@omzzzzz kinda looks like him 2

[annoyinghayes]

he reminds me of that one guy on saturday night live lol

[Irondog333]

Hey you guys that say he sucks dont know what your talking about. I know how to unicycle very well (tricks etc) and trust me that is the proper way to mount, also lean your seat back and then sit, one thing nice to get is a wall, a nice way to learn and this is how i did it, is to get two saw horses, and clamp two very long boards and each side of the saw horses, and then get right in the middle of the two boards, that way you have support on both sides of your body.

[rhansing1]

how do i get lesson two

[Raid951]

this shit went up my pussy

[shabsove22]

i know riding a unicycle dose hurt your nuts, i just grined and bared it and eventually you learn where to sit on the unicycle. and i agree, getting on the unicyle without using a wall was the hardest part for me and still is. i can ride it but just cant mount it =). i always use a wall.

[huntingfreak901]

same unicycle as he has

[whiteexpress94]

this dude is hot!!

[AustinHome]

dude. i just got my 1st unicycle today, and i rolled a nut. how do you freaking mount like that!11!!!!1!one!!

[personwithaname123]

i think that mounting the unicycle was like the hardest part, moving is alittle harder

[AustinHome]

mounting was the hardest, but moving was harder?? LOL blooper

[COCOPUFF093]

doesn't that hurt ur gnads?

[deadlyrasberry]

YES!!!!!!!! oh god yes

[whitestripesguitar]

haha. u can put baby powder around/ on them. or wear spandex, or get some kind of lubricating cream. idk. i wore compression shorts once, twas ok. but baby powder is prettay good. u must prevent developing a rash on ur balls more then anything.

[alloutmotocross]

I try to sit more on my ass

[uniFREAK134]

do not listen to this guy. do not hold onto a chair! they are not stable. also start with your pedal at 7:00

[thedaysleepr]

yeah i agree i got my unicycle three days ago so much easier on 7:00

[onebadjesus]

I was just looking down the page to point out that his dominate pedal was in fact at 7 o'clock. I thank you 2, you are obviously unicyclists.

[dunnycan2]

ok, im 4'7 and i weight 37 k, what inch unicycle should i get?

[nate862554]

haha this guys sucks soo bad, he even struggled to get on it using a chair

[oingashpoop]

you shouldn't use these videos to learn to unicycle, i learned to unicycle without knowing a thing about it before. I tought myself, and you should too

[ghqwpo]

okay nice to know!

[JacksonJ92]

Most people wanna know the right way to do it so they don't stack it bad, cause a unicycle is a lot more awkward and dangerous than learning to ride a regular bike.

[tocobell18]

How did you teach yourself? what did you do to learn? Jw b/c i'm lookin for an easy way to learn... if there is a such thing

[abramstank1]

hang on to railing and ride until you get basic balance then ride as far as you can and continue from there

[bfmv4life002]

there is no easy way to learn.. get a railing or something ..ive been practiceing for about 5 hrs..i can finaly ride around town on it..just dont give up

[crzycnt]

you practiced for 5 hrs and you were riding round town, somehow i doubt that

[schwartzie84]

i used to ride along a wall till i got comfortable wit that, then i would hang on to a tree and let go and try to pedal...it seems impossible but it is not

[ThePokemonandkhmasta]

i did that too when i started riding

[hrhitter620]

i am left footed, but right handed (i know wierd). would that throw off my balance, as i just got a unicycle yesterday.

[nikolo727]

ok so im completely new to unicycles and i am having trouble finding the right one for me. I am a huge guy(300 pounds) and i would like to do some freestyle and cruising unicycling. the biggest thing is, is that it needs to be able to hold my weight and have a good size of tire. can anyone help pleeeeease???

[thatandstuff12]

i am starting to ride a unicycle i wiegh 12 stone best bet is to get a 20-26 inch wheel i got a 20 and it is perfect for begginers cause bigger wheel easier to ride

[YAM4949]

is it normal that i get bruses on my legs from the seat

[tonofsmell]

Hey, I've been able to ride as far as I wanted for about 9 weeks now, but when I was learning or when I was having trouble, I looked straight to ExpertVillage. These videos are great!

[Angelmonkeys]

good tips man

[deckers182]

He is so like Ashton Kutcher its unreal......... is this him?

[kartoonkid49]

um.....no.

[tonofsmell]

No, he is Kevin Barret.

[caswellberry414]

wtf wat is wrong this guy ok alright ok oko ok ok ok lright \

[ilovehsmmorethanyou]

hmm..

these videos are pretty helpful,

but i noticed there's none on how to get OFF the unicycle.

that's the problem i'm having, i tried getting off without holding on to anything, and i fell on my butt!

please post a video on this!

[Grintoth]

I'm a pro at getting off. I can't get on, rock, or move around, but in my 5 hours of unicycling I have learned how to properly fall. Just lean back, then catch the seat as it comes down. He actually does have a video on how to get off
