Landing Tricks Seat IN...

sp4rky-m4rky said:

No, you land on your butt. As long as your balls are tucked up like they
should be when your riding you should be fine. If however you [censored] out
and try and whip the seat out from under you just as you land, you may
stand a risk of landing with your balls at the back of the seat. Just
go for it, you will soon realise, your balls are pretty safe.

I think I pussied out and tried to the whip the seat out from under me
last time I tried :S

OK but when you do a crank flip your balls are nicely tucked up until
they leave the seat allowing them to change position and land
underneath you, ouch...

I'll might try tomorrow and hopefully I don't hurt myself.

I normaly wear cyling shorts which hold everything in place but I can
still hapily land flips without them. There is a tendancy your stuff
will move about but it doesnt ever seem to get sat on.

Just have the seat low enough, so you can stand on your feet with it
under you.

you should never land on your butt or genitals with any force, land on
you feet somehow.

OK, I find it hard to do other tricks like uni spins and wheel walking
with the seat that low but atleast for the learning process I'll put
the seat low enough.

And maybe I'll try cycle shorts or something as well :P

Do you have a vendor for good cycle shorts that will do the "heaving
lifting" you mention above?

I have a pair, and they help, but would love to get a little more
support where it counts. Maybe we could come up with "Ball Bras". :p

anyway :P

Lol genitals.

If your seat is too high then yes, you will recieve a nice ball plant
if landed wrong. I suffered many while learning triples.

Try the Voler cycling shorts. Don't buy the most expensive ones get the
model below that. Voler makes some of the best/toughest cycling shorts
I have ever used. I couldn't imagine doing any long term Unicycling
with out bike shorts under my cavas shorts. If you mail order them,
they even send you a stamped self addressed package to return them in
if you order the wrong size.
