Workshops
Unicon is not just the World Championships of Unicycling, it is a World Convention. For the less competitively minded, it is a chance to participate in workshops alongside other unicyclists.
Workshops are all about sharing skills and ideas, and there will be quite a few different workshops during Unicon. Anyone can run a workshop…just think of a good theme, or something you’d like to share with other unicyclists.
Suggestions are:
-Public Workshop- teach the public how to ride
-Various freestyle tricks- mounts, idling, one-foot, gliding etc
-Informal rides: we call these workshops but it’s basically groups of riders getting together for a day trip out somewhere. The person running the workshop organises maps and travel arrangements. Suggestions for a MUni trip include Makara Peak mountainbike park in Karori, Belmont Regional Park, or even an overnight trip to the Malborough sounds at the top of the South Island
-Slideshows: Unitouring, MUni, Trials
-Various maintenance worshops: eg wheelbuilding, unicycle maintenance etc
-Games/activities workshops: eg Wharf jumping workshop, Unicycle hurling, Unicycle Sumo, Unicycle Jousting
We are not opening the schedule for workshops yet. If you are participating in Unicon and would like to run a workshop, start thinking about what equipment and venues you will require. We will open workshop submissions next year and slot you into the programme.
