Directors
A competitive event such as the UNICON wouldn’t exist without people closely watching for rules to be applied. These directors are there to insure that everything in their competition is clean and enjoyable!
Basketball
David Ilcinkas
I'm David Ilcinkas, I'm French and I mainly play unicycle basketball. I do like downhill even if Bordeaux is not the perfect place to ride. Julien and I would like to set up a great unicycle basketball championship in the country with the greater number of unicycle basketball teams.
Julien Perrot
My name is Julien Perrot and I have been playing for 10 years in the WOOM monobasket team in Lyon.
With David, we think we should offer beautiful tournaments for these UNICONs in France, both to decide between the best in the world, but also to allow everyone to play at their level against players from all over the world.
Freestyle
Hockey
Steven Hughes
I am Australian and have been riding for 7 years. I am heavily involved in our national championships and hockey league as well as the international rulebook committee for hockey and urban events. I would like to set up a hockey event that has good communication from the outset to assist with smooth running of the tournaments.
Jumps
Muni
Road races
Ken Looi
I'm from Wellington, New Zealand, and have been unicycling since 2000. My main interest is road racing, although I also ride cross country. This will be my 9th Unicon, and 2nd Unicon as road director. I hope to make this year's road events the best ever! Outside of racing, I organise unicycle tours, ride bikes and sometimes go running.
Street and flatland
Track
Jan Vocke
I'm Jan Vocke from Germany, I'm 25 years old and I have done unicycling as a competitive sport for more than ten years now. I started with Track Racing, but now I also do Muni, Road Racing, Freestyle, Hockey and Trial. But most experiences I still have in Track Racing and therefore I'm very happy to support the Unicon 20 Orga Team as Director for the Track Races.
Trials
Dan Cormeau
I hail from Alberta, Canada. I was the director for trials and speed trials for UNICON 19 in Korea. I have been riding trials since 2006. I have over a decade of woodworking and general construction experience and am a member of the IUF rulebook committee.
Christian Eder
I ride more than 10 years now and I compete since 2011. In Marchtrenk I have organized 4 Trial competitions, called Trial ÖM, in the last few years. They have been an absolute blast!. I am assistant Trials director and together with Dan we try to make the best competition possible for you!
ボランティア
Val von Usslar
Hey, I'm Val, I got a German passport but I love living in other countries so you can consider me Canadian, Mexican and Australian as well. I play hockey and do muni and this is my fourth UniCon. In South Korea I spontaneously became co-director of Volunteering and I loved it so much that I'm back again!
Élise Lecomte
As I am a core team organiser, you can find my bio on the Core Team page.
Workshop
Andy Cotter
My name is Andy Cotter and I am working with Tynan Rollo on having many workshops available at Unicon 20. I have been unicycling for over 30 years and this will be my 13th Unicon.
Tynan Rollo
My name is Tynan Rollo, and I'm excited to be helping bring some unique workshops to a decidedly unique event. I've been a unicyclist for over twenty years, and have been to the last five Unicons. I'm passionate about many different unicycle disciplines, though hockey is where I spend most of my time on the wheel!
