OK i have another question. When landing this should i land seat out or
seat in? The one that I landed before i landed it seat out, but that was
the only one i landed.

Also, for some reason i keep hitting my ankles somehow. My left ankle is
swolen today. Just wondering why. Kelly.

What you think it's best.

Buy a soft mouse-pad. Cut it in 4 pieces. Round the corners. Put those
in your socks.

if u have some soccer shin pads lying around, u might be in luck
there are some of them with some padding over the ankle-bone in addition
to the protection for your shins

if u go with Jester's suggestion, u'll also pick up an extra mount into
the bargain

we want to see video when u get it

Don't send your legs out too far. Sometimes I forget about that. It may
make it look cooler with a wide spread but it makes it harder to get
them back in. Just hold them out far enough to clear the wheel. Then
pull them in as tight as you can, like munimanpete said, don't worry
about pedals at this point. Put your main spinning hand right above the
seatpost, it makes it spin truer and faster. Do it seatout at first, it
will make for another variable you don't have to worry about. Just go
for it and work at it.

Good Luck,
David

Darchibald, when you say put you main spinning hand(in my case it is my
right hand which spins it clockwise) right above the seatpost, what do
you mean? Do you mean on the saddle right above the seat post? Thanks,
Kelly.

Yeah, I used to have one on the side of the handle (right) and one on
the side of the bumper (left). Mike Clark told me to put my right hand,
which was doing most of the spinning above the seatpost (still on the
saddle). I did and got it a few tries later. Also try to hold onto it
all the way, at least with one hand, in both our cases the right one.
You end up twisted and your hand is all weird on the side of the saddle,
then grab it again with your left hand. It looks weird but it works and
there probably is a better way that you'll find eventually.
