One Wheelin'

I've been hearing about Kris Holm and his crazy unicycle riding for some time, so I looked on youtube. Here's one trailer, http://youtube.com/watch?v=mSBMWQsYeg4&feature=related . There are a lot of other crazy riders and types of uni-rides out there.

Umm, Wow! That dude's got some balls, or wait, does he? It looks like when he absorbs the landing, the seat goes right up in the crotch area pretty hard . Unlike a bicycle where you can absorb half the landing through the handlebars and the other half through your feet on the pedals. Either way thats pretty cool and he's got excellent balance on that one wheeler.

yeah you cant absorb those landings with your legs. well i guess you can, extend your legs and hold the seat in place with your hands. anyway, this guy has some major balls. figuratively speaking of course.

This guy should run the uni-cycle course on Unbeatable Banzuke, I bet he could win. On a side note, I wonder what he airs down to .
