  1. The video and articles I've seen indicate 2 mounts are most popular:
    (1) the "Climb up" mount, and (2) the rolling mount.

    Which one will be faster to learn ? (it seems from the forums that both
    are difficult, and have hit rates a lot lower than 100%).

    Regards from sunny Brisbane, Australia.

  2. I tried both mounts when learning and I was able to get the rolling
    mount first. I still have more success with the rolling mount although
    I can do both pretty well now.

  3. I can't get the rolling mount at all. Actually, I can't get either very
    well. But the climb up is easier for me.

    You know what five/six foot giraffes should have? Pegs sticking out the
    side of the wheel, to climb up on.

  4. The only mount I can do is the rolling mount. That's on a 5 footer.
