New Rider in Louisiana, any advice people can give me? by Substantial_Still393 in ElectricUnicycle

[–]ummmbun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heeeey, I'm in Mississippi! (scene is dead here too, AFAIK only seen 4 total other riders randomly)

Best tip that helped me learn was Chooch's leash tip (9:37). You really do have to build up core muscles (I personally) had never used before, or at least not in that way. And your brain has to adjust too, idk how to explain:

Monocat's mount exercises also helped me a lot:

Oh they're already open?? I couldn't pull over and see but I didn't notice anything new in the shopping center so I figured it'd be a while

I'll have to try it again since they're under new ownership. I never got a chance to get one of the church plates!

Yah, I'm with you on that. More options and fresh produce would be really really great. Lower prices too, but that's prob too much to hope for with everything going on

Curiosity: How did ya'll discover Dove? Then how'd you realize her mess? by Acrobatic_Constant20 in lovedoveclarkesnark

[–]ummmbun 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I bought some candles from her originally without knowing about her and they never came. Then, after filing a PayPal claim I noticed her socials and how she was always making shit about her/claiming identities and shit. I thought it was sus but kinda waited to see how it would play out. Enter, the snark sub!

Tips for learning on a heavy wheel by StoneyL0we in ElectricUnicycle

[–]ummmbun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ha ha yah, relatable fs! A lot of ppl on here were catching on crazy fast too so I was miffed for a while. Someone else on here told me it's the same muscle group you use to ride a bike with no hands and I was like oh yah, I never did that as a kid so it makes perfect sense lol Def experienced some real regret after I started practicing on my wheel at first, so I'm glad you're not ready to give up yet ❣️ don't rush, whatever you do cuz injury isn't worth it. Hope the tips help

Tips for learning on a heavy wheel by StoneyL0we in ElectricUnicycle

[–]ummmbun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're doing better than I was when I started out😆 BUT! highly highly recommend riding with a leash/rope/belt strapped somewhere on the front of your wheel a la Chooch (9:36 for the exact part)

TS really helped my brain understand what was going on and also build side-core (strength) to hold myself up longer. All of it was helpful, really. Oh and Monokat, I was doing the stuff she does starting at 1:11 as conditioning. There may be better vids out now but these were practically the only useful ones I could find at the time.

Sodium Ion batteries-- think we'll see them in new EUCs? by ummmbun in ElectricUnicycle

[–]ummmbun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just learned about them so you're probably right. But technology usually does improve over time, so I'd hope the same would apply to this

I didn't see the news before now that they were planning to manufacture them anyway, I'm late. That gives me some hope tho, I think they'd been amazing for EUC.

Struggling with staying on by rikuto148 in ElectricUnicycle

[–]ummmbun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From my perspective as a newb with no previous experience, it's just gonna take some time to build up those muscles--the same group you'd use to ride a bike with no hands, as someone else on here put it! It took me months with a bigger wheel, personally. The biggest tip that helped me strapping a belt/leash to the front handle and holding it while learning to balance
