  1. I'm having a hard time learning this. I can get it out and ride for a
    while, but my legs get tired quick, and I seem very unstable. Is there
    andthing that would help (other than practice)? Jumping on/off pallets?

    Never underestimate stupid people in large groups

    It is always better to keep your mouth shut and have people question
    your intelligence, than to say something stupid and leave them in no
    doubt.

  2. Hopping with the seat in front might help a bit for learning. But the
    KEY is to keep it close to your legs. The closer, the easier.

    Tence up your arm thats holding the seat, that will allow you to do
    less of the work with your legs. Hold the seat in contact with your
    legs. Hold the seat behind the seat post. When hopping, Pull up on the
    seat very hard, and push down with your feet very hard, this will lock
    your feet into the pedals, and also give you a much more rigid stance
    on the uni, This helps for hopping onto thin objects.
