7.0 Standard Skills List  

GENERAL REMARKS ABOUT STANDARD SKILL RIDING: Only figures listed in the following skills list can be used for the assembly of Standard Skill routines.

RIDING POSITION: Unless stated differently in a figure description, it is to be executed with the rider seated and with both feet on the pedals.

BODY FORM: The rider must show proper body form and shall not change this form during the execution of the entire figure.

RIDING DIRECTION: Unless stated differently, all riding figures are to be performed riding forward, this being the direction in which the rider faces.

PATTERN: Unless stated differently in a figure description, it is to be executed in a line. Exceptions are mounts, stationary skills and transitions, which can be executed at any spot in the riding area.

TRANSITIONS: Unless stated differently in the description of a transition, it starts and ends with the rider seated with both feet on the pedals. An exception is made for uni spins, where the rider may start with the seat held out in front. Before and after transitions entered on the score sheet as figures, at least one revolution of the wheel must be ridden in the start and end positions. If the start or end position of a transition is a stationary skill, that stationary skill must be executed at least 50% as described, whether or not it is listed on the judging sheet. Example 1: For the transition Riding to Seat in Front, the rider must ride at least one full revolution of the wheel with the seat in front.. Example 2: For the transition, 180° uni spin to idling 1ft, the rider must idle one foot 2 1/2 cycles.

MOUNTS: Unless stated differently in the description of a mount, it is to end with the rider seated with both feet on the pedals. After all mounts listed on the judging sheet as figures, at least one full revolution of the wheel must be ridden in the end position. For mounts ending in stationary skills, the stationary skill must be executed at least 50% as described, whether or not it is listed on the judging sheet. Example: For the Side Mount, the rider must ride at least one full revolution of the wheel in the riding position after mounting.

IDLING FIGURES: In idling figures, a minimum of 5 consecutive cycles (back and forth motions) must be executed.

TWISTING FIGURES: In twisting figures, a minimum of 5 consecutive cycles (side to side motions) must be executed.

ONE FOOT FIGURES: Unless stated differently in one foot figures, the free foot is to be placed on the frame so that there is no contact between the free foot and any rotating part of the unicycle.

SEAT OUT FIGURES: Unless stated differently in seat out figures, the rider shall have no contact with the seat other than one hand holding the seat. The hand holding the seat as well as the corresponding arm shall be extended away from the rider's body and shall not touch any part of the rider's body.

WHEEL WALK FIGURES: Unless stated differently in wheel walk figures, the feet are to push only the tire, and shall have no contact with the pedals or crank arms.

STILLSTANDS: The minimum time for stillstands is 3 seconds.

HOPPING FIGURES: In hopping figures, a minimum of 5 consecutive hops must be executed.

SPINS AND PIROUETTES: The rider must make a minimum of three full rotations for spins and pirouettes. Spins must be ridden around a fixed point and must not exceed a 1 meter diameter. Pirouettes must be executed on 1 spot and the pedals may not move backward or forward during the pirouette.

COASTING: Unless stated differently in coasting figures, the feet are to have no contact with any rotating part of the unicycle (pedals, crank arms, or tire).
