Seat help please

I have a new sun 26 inch unicycle which i can ride just fine but would
love suggestions on which seat to buy. The stock seat shape is no good
for me and smashes my errr "family jewels." Seems to me a flat seat
would be ideal, it's the upturned front of the seat that is the problem.
I tried adjusting the seat but there is not enough range of adjustment
to flatten out the seat. Anyone have an experience with this sort of
problem? Any seat reccomendations? thanks so much! David

Tilting the nose of the saddle up actually helps. You wouldn't think
so, but it does. Tilting the nose of the saddle up gets you to sit on
the back part of the saddle and keeps you from sliding down to the
lowest part of the bottom of the "U". If you've been trying to make the
saddle flatter by lowering the nose of the saddle then you've been
adjusting it the wrong way.

In your profile, you are a self-described newbie. Many young riders ride
with their regular underwear, usually boxer shorts. Bad Idea. The
problem you discussed may be alleviated by wearing some sort of scrotal
support garment such as underarmour. When it comes to the family
jewels, you won't be having fun until they're having fun.

i ride in boxer shorts unless i'm going for a long ride. with practice
you'll get used to it and your body will find a way to seat itself more
comfortably. that said, tilting the seat back works wonders. as does
riding on a seat like a KH or an air seat insead of a viscount or
something.

Once you get more steady you should think about adding some handle bars,
they take a bit of your weight off the seat, which relieves a lot of
pressure

i never wear and flash pants, just my regular boxers and jeans or
cargo's,

what i do is literally lift the whole family jewels up as far as i can
so theyr out in front of me on the seat. sounds crazy but even after
landing hops on my muni i'v never had a bad experience!
