what tire should I get?

I wouldn't bother putting money into a non splined unicycle for trials.
Save your money and get something that will last, you can still do
trials with a hard tire until then.

my parents don't really support my unicycle so there's no way they would
let me get a new unicycle. I've asked. Even if I buy it. plus not too
long ago I just got a new 24'' muni

I put a Maxxis Max Daddy on my son's Torker LX and he loves it. 20x2.3
There is just a small amount of clearance so I'm thinking this is about
as big as it gets for this frame.

I already mow lawns. but thanks for the advice the max daddy looks like
a really nice tire. does anyone know if you can keep a semi-low tire
pressure without having it fold on you when hopping on angles? I'm only
100 pounds and by semi low I mean 20-25 psi

Kenda kinetics is 2.35 has good volume. It folds a little bit but you
should be good to go. I had two pinch flats when I rode on. Mind you
the pinche when I was using 2X4''s for hopping posts hehe😄

What do you have for the muni? Is it splined?
You can use a 24" muni for lots of trials like stuff. Jumping on
things, jumping off of things, side hops, rolling hops, riding down
stairs, riding on skinnies, and all sorts of fun stuff. You don't
necessarily have to get a 19" trials uni for trials. There are
trade-offs for sure, but it's better than not riding.

I tried that and the big wheel is just killing my hopping height by a
good 4-5 inches. I would rather stick with getting a new tire on my
freestyle and being able to hop higher.

You'll lose some jump height, but that's not that big of a deal. The
moves and the skills are the same, just somewhat harder to do some in
some cases. You only need to be able to jump high enough to get on the
obstacle or ride the trials line. Find trials lines that are just as
challenging in the skill department but don't need 30" ups. Scale down
and have the same fun.

Jumping with a muni tire is also going to require learning new timing
in your jump and pre-hop. The tire compresses and rebounds
differently. Practice on the muni till you learn the timing for the
compression and rebound. Your jump height and consistency will get
better. If you're used to jumping with a BMX tire the muni tire is
going to feel very different. The muni tire has more compression and
slower rebound. Your jumping technique needs to adjust.

hear hear

anything you can do on a 19" you can do on a 24" it is just slightly
harder ,and it will just make you more stronger

I work at a monumental mason's (they pretty much make headstones and
plaques) a couple of days a week after school doing all kinds of
stuff.

I think you pretty much need to get your foot in the door and let
people know you're interested rather than sitting around wishing you
had more money😄
