Trick Theory
The unicycle trick theory provides the sport scientic background for the properties of tricks, how they are structured and related together.
Tricks contain a lot of properties, that describe them.
Simple, descriptive properties.
The name of the trick.
Possibly, alternative names.
A brief description (only a few sentences) that describes the trick.
History about the trick.
Properties that describe the tricks movement.
A very detailed description, which joint is doing which action or behaves relative to another joint for every body part during the whole movement. A sequence picture can be used as a support.
The movement can be a translation, a rotation or both at the same time.
If the movement is a rotation then additional rotation parameters can be used to further specify what kind of rotation is happening.
What exactly is rotating: The rider and/or the unicycle
Each body can be rotated around three axis. The longitudinal, latitudinal and transversal axis.
If rider and unicycle are rotated around the same axis, these two rotations can be simultaneous (e.g. Spin) or isolated (e.g. Varialspin). In the latter case the rotation direction can be same (when rider and unicycle rotate the same direction) or opposite.
