Varial, essentially the same as a unispin but instead of spinning the
uni 180 you turn your body 180 around the uni.
'Nuff said.

No, that's a body varial. A varial is a unispin with a 180 twist, easy.

Na man, I'm right. It's Shaun J, Tomsey etc. who make all this stuff up
and because they're the best at it, what they say goes so a varial is a
180/180 unispin. Also has to be from seat in to seat out...

Until all of this is written down somewhere, all of you guys are just
making stuff up (names). We need a place to coordinate the names and
definitions for all these cool new tricks.

Whoever puts the list(s) together obviously gets some say in what
they're called...

The names are just taken from skating and BMXing. A Varial and Body
Varial in skating are the same. It is when the body turns and not the
board. Why would a term coined from skating apply to something nothing
like the original skating trick?
Maybe you're right, but that's my 2 cents.

Just ignore the similarities or differences we have with skating terms.
It's been done like this so we can differentiate between varials, small
spins and big spins etc. The difference is subtle to some but obvious
to the people who do them, which is...

varial = 180/180 unispin, seat in to seat out
small spin = 180/180 unispin, seat out to seat out
big spin = 180/360 unispin, seat out to seat out (Dan does one of these
in the latest syko vid)
360 varial = 180/360 unispin, seat in to seat out

Basically there isn't much difference between a varial and a small spin
except for when you try for 360s or more.

Yeah pete66 is right. 180/180 "out to out" is a smallspin and "in to
out" is a varial.

And in my experience, out to in varials are almost always "fakie
varials" because the rider starts the move with the seat backwards (and
out)...

I put it as a 180footplant... I think the only time you'd actually need
all these names of the tricks would be if you were making a unicycling
video game or something though.

I've just gone through and categorised the tricks coz the list was
getting a bit long. If anyone wants to add more tricks to that site or
refine the ones that are there it'd be good, or else just post them
here and I'll see what I can do. I see someone added 270 unispin to the
mix.

Um, are you sure, because i disagree? A varial is the same as a
shuv-it. Thus, a varial is when the board spins without the body. I
was pretty big into skateboarding back in the day, so unless the terms
are different on this side of the pond, you're mistaken.

But, you do bring up an excellent side point. If you're going to
steal/borrow a term from skateboarding to apply it to unicycling, apply
it properly!!!!!!!!

* Varial = Unispin = when the unicycle spins under the rider (180
degrees by default).
* Body Varial = when the rider spins without the uni (180 degrees by
default).
* Big Spin = when the unicycle spins 360 and the rider spins 180 in the
same direction. It's like doing a 180 spin (uni and rider together)
plus a unispin at the same time, in the direction that you're spinning.

So if a foot on tire body varial is now called a 180 footplant then
what do you call a 180 into or out of a footplant?

Yeah sorry, I couldn't think of a good name for it and thats just what
I call them when I do them (I don't often do "proper footplants").
That's whats cool about the wiki, I can leave it up to other ppl to fix
it up.
