He doesn't have a bicycle so he rides his uni all over - to the mall, to
the train (they let him take it on, tho bikes are not allowed). The train
station is 2 miles away.
At the mall, someone asked to try and my son (Ben) was impressed
since this guy could go backwards. He told Ben that an easy way to
learn is to protect the uni with WD40 and learn in a swimming pool.
I said there is no way he is submersing a new uni in a pool! Does
anyone have recommendations on learning this. I see some mention
about idling, which I assume is staying in place. Ben can't do that
yet, either.
As far as juggling, Ben uses these sticks he got at a local Renaissance
Faire called Crystal Sticks and he is very adept at using these. There
are 2 control sticks and a third middle stick he bats back and forth,
twirls, etc. He's done that for about 1.5 years. He hasn't really tried
juggling, tho I assume he could do it if he tried for a while.
