My guess is that it might be pretty good for getting around - combining the stability and smooth running of a bike wheel, with the carry-ability of a skateboard. And the dorkiness of a unicycle.

Having said that though, I've seen a group of local Hackney youths unicycling around Victoria Park, London, complete with grime music playing from their phones. If I had to take a punt at guessing a meaningless trend, it's that unicycling might be in again.
