    do you guys have any workouts or stretches you do to become stronger for
    that pull of the unicycle?

    yes. i squat-ride, and do 'baldwin squats' with the unicycle--it
    involves squatting with the unicycle, pushing the seat away from me the
    farther i go down. i also try to go down and come back up really slow,
    and switch to fast, all without being sketchy or using even one too
    many corrective hops. i wait until i'm all the way up before i
    corrective hop. you want things to be smooth, quick, and in control.

    i also ride sif a lot more than the normal person. i ride sif
    backwards, do turns. i can idle sif. to practice sif, i ride sif,
    pushing my seat out as far as i can, away from me, all while trying to
    keep the pressure off of my arm that holds my seat.

    i do all of these things to get my body used to riding sif, and being
    able to use sif for all sorts of angles and situations that might come
    up.

    i think doing all of that stuff helps a lot.
