Rolling mount - not on a Coker

mucRider 11 April 2005 20:40:15
 
I have tried doing a rolling mount but must be doing something wrong.
When I get on the seat, things get squished :eek: - ouch!!
I have seen people do the rolling mount quite effectively but I cannot
figure out how to do it without hurting "myself".

Some questions:
1) Are you actually putting all of your weight on the rear pedal as the
pedal turns up?
2) At what point do you position yourself onto the seat? Before stepping
on the rear pedal? After stepping on the rear pedal?
3) Do you rest some of your weight on the seat with your hand/arm while
stepping on the pedal?

I can freemount but I am always the last one to go because of the time
it takes me to get situated on the seat.

Hidden discreetly beneath my baggy nylon short pants is a proper pair of
b*ke shorts.

My Coker-mounting squish rate is practically zero.

The twins appreciate it.

:p­ :p­

I do the "suffer-4-a-minute"­ rolling mount. You squish at first and fix
things on the go! I hear the padded bike shorts are the best for both
world's.

it works best (for me anyway) to think of the rolling mount as you think
of riding one footed. assuming you can ride one footed. basically, put
no weight on the pedals even though your foot is on it.

when the dominant (ex. left) pedal comes up, you put your left foot on
it but put no weight on it, so the unicycle keeps rolling smoothly. then
after it goes over the top you can put your weight on it to push it
down, and hold your right foot in the path of the right pedal, until
that pedal comes up and hits your right foot, and suddenly, both feet
are on the pedals, and the unicycle never stopped moving!!

I've just discovered the rolling mount alone, a few days ago and when i
thought to do that it was so natural and it came really easily.

I don't think ride one foot is a compulsory because i cannot ride more
than half seconds with one foot, i think the jump mounts helped me more.
Rolling mount is just like a jump mount in movement :
you have to throw your fisrt foot at the right time as explained
previously. And very rapidely, put the other, as your body come above
the stopped-by-the-firs­t-foot-for-a-second unicycle.

I hope it'll help
