Giraffe unicycle

Hello,

I just got a giraffe unicycle today, and I was wondering if anyone has
any tips for learning it, especially about mounting it without help. I
can basically ride it if have help mounting it already. I also would
like to know it there is better way to dismount other than basically
jumping off.

thanks!

Try reading this 'Freemounting a giraffe' (http://tinyurl.com/26a4r)
thread ilyana. I mostly stand on things like fences to mount, but I've
seen the freemount done (it takes practise). If you can find a platform
that is high enough it can be good to mount from and you can stand on it
again when you get off. If you are away from the platform, basicly
jumping off being careful to land on both feet evenly is a viable
dismount. Be aware of the size of the giraffe too when you jump off,
making sure there is enough space in front or behind you, depending on
which way you hold it. I jumped off next to a wall once, forgetting
about it, and I got catapulted forwards since the wheel had nowhere to
go behind me.
