Succeeded in my goal on the #unicycle 🎉

Also did quite well on my randomized handstands, despite a headache that showed up off and on throughout the evening. (I think it's air pressure changes getting to me) I do think that giving my shoulders more time to rest helped. I'm really excited by that. I do intend to eventually start ramping up some focused work, I want a proper press handstand, but right now? This feels like I'm making good choices.

Played during the movement explorations again, which was grand :)

All in all, a good night!

And that was a short, but decent #workout!

Managed to freemount and do a clean ride across the short side of the theater. (probably ~15ft) For a first night back on a #unicycle , I'm pretty happy.

My Randomized Handstands: ( "->" indicates a transition during the same handstand)

1.) Jump to tuck, from standing -> straight -> open tuck -> cartwheel out on the left - Succeeded on the 1st attempt

2.) Jump to straddle, from standing -> stag, right knee bent -> half straddle, left knee bent -> underbalance down, to the Left - completed on the 1st attempt

3.) Failed to jump to tuck on blocks, from low.

4.) Failed to jump to straddle on blocks, from low

5.) Jump to straddle from low -> stag, right knee bent -> Failed to do an L -> underbalance down, center.

I struggled with accidental bent arms on both of the otherwise "successful" sequences. Clearly there's still something in my shoulders that's grumpy enough that my body is subconsciously avoiding making them work. Something to keep an eye on and push to correct.

Really enjoyed playing around with adding "crab" into my movement work, and actually found myself playing with it during/directly following my "lizard" explorations, rather than saving it for later in the night, which was quite fun.
