Seat angles

[Harold Jarvie]

Greetings to all

I'm another newcomer to unicycling (about three weeks now). I don't know
anyone who unicycles so we got a video(The Complete Showoff) from the library
which has some unicycling in it. It was only a short segment but it was
usefull to see someone actually doing it. We noticed though that they had
their seat pointing upwards in the front. Our seat was parallell to the
ground when we brought it. We figured that it was probably a case of whatever
hurts the least. Is this right? or does someone have a theory about the
right/best way?

Cheers Harold

I set the seat so that the front is as high as possible. In my case, though,
the back side of the seat is wider than the middle and front, so this helps
increase the amount of support for me, rather than concentrating the weight on
a narrow spot.
