    Most people would tell you to keep your weight on the seat while
    learing. Like everyone else has said put them in front, not under.

    You want about 80% of your weight on the seat. 🙂

  3. Yes, you definitely need to be able to sit down comfortably to learn to
    ride. So what kind of seat are we talking about. Is it a new unicycle,
    or old? Plastic bumpers or metal bars? All seats are not created
    equal.

    But definitely it's important to figure out the sitting part. My dad had
    a problem with that every time he tried. No, we are not all
    steel-crotched supermen. 🙂
