New jumping technique idea I have

As long as no "part of the cycle except the tire, rim, spokes, crank
arms, pedals, bottom bracket, bashguard or bearing housings" touches
the ground, you're good.

lol surely pedals arent allowed.You are reading the rules for a trials
competition and not a high jump competition onto an object not over the
bar

I was responding to the original idea and it's usefulness in a trials
competition.

The only real problem I see is that you'd have to violate some basic
laws of physics to pull off the move you're describing... if I
understand what you're trying to describe.

Unless you've got your body weight evenly distributed about the
unicycle's contact point, it's going to tip over. Even if the unicycle
is completely horizontal.

Is there some anti-gravity component to your technique?

I guess the idea is you start out seat in front and then seat in front
jump for one to two. Then during the two, three transition you would
reach under yourself and pull the unicycle above you in an allyoop type
transition. On the thrid step I believe you were mentionioning
(underlined), the way weight could evenly be distributed is placing it
on the ledge where the pedal and wheel contact. (much like what
happens when you set the unicycle down and the wheel and pedal touch)
But I also realize that the seat also touches, to stop this if one
forearm is across the tire and holds onto the frame, while the other is
across the other part of the tire holding the opposite side of the tire.
To the best of my knowlage this would evenly distrubute the weight.
Hope I am correctly explaining what I mean to...
