I know how to do the jump and kick up mount. The jump mount is pretty
easy and it's the basic of a sucide mount. I must say that the jump and
sucide mount is all in the mind. Have to over come the mental fear. For
kick up mount, i believe there's quite a number of treads about it...

Check out 'The Unicycle Page' (http://www.unicycling.org/). Under
"Things to Do", click on "Unicycle Mounts". 'The Marsh sisters' page'
(http://members.tripod.com/~MarshT/) has a section on mounts on the
lower right, also.

Just buy a giraf
Take the seat in you hand ( giraf in the front )
Run to the front
Jump on your seat and pedal backwards.

Thats looks very good

It was the first free mounth I could make on a giraf.

For the most bang for your buck, learn the Kick-up Mount. Search on it
and you should find deatiled instructions.

The kick up mount really does look good. I found it really easy to
learn too. I remember I got it for the first time on my 3rd or 4th
attempt. Did anyone else have a similar experience learning it?
