Extreme unicycling. Yup, it’s a thing.

I'm always a bit reserved when a new "extreme" support comes out. Sometimes it ends up looking like little more than a redneck on an inner tube being swung around by a crane.

So, you'd think that extreme unicycling might be kinda silly. And you'd be dead wrong. These dudes have SERIOUS cajones to be doing this crap. I wouldn't WALK down some of the stuff these guys are riding down, let alone on a freaking UNICYCLE.

One question though. If your wheel is connected directly to the pedals, wouldn't it make jumping in the air crazy difficult? I mean, you'd essentially have to stop, on a dime, and then hop into the air, right? Anyone? Or am I just not understanding the physics of the thing?

Anyways, I'd love to see someone try some Hudson Valley trails with this bad boy. Mount Beacon anyone?
