Learned to SIF today

i find it helps if you put pressure on the seat with your hand but keep
it close to you

hold it very close to your body whilst learning. Seat out tricks (and
seat drags for that matter) are all about riding with even pressure on
both pedals (im sure youve picked this up by now).

Start working on using less and less grip on the seat, and start to hold
it out farther away from you, once you get it down having it up close.

In theory, there is no difference between practice and theory, in
practice, there is.

once you get good at it take the seat clamp off so the seat isnt
actually attached to the thingyand it becomes a lot harder to ride,
though its fun to do.

if you drop the seat through the tube it'll hit your tyre and will stop
you dead. that would be interesting to watch

Not all frames let the post go through it.

Now, besides doing SIF, try doing SIB, seat in back, its not as hard as
you think.

little on the very front of the seat to learn
