According to Richard J. Moll:

* Thanks! I can do all the level 2 stuff, and some of the level 3 stuff.
* I have a question, though, about:
*
* > Ride with the stomach on the seat for 10 m
*
* Does this mean that one takes ones butt off the seat? I've never tried
* that, but it seems difficult out of proportion with the rest of the
* level 3 skills. Is it easier than it sounds?

The people who came up with the levels decided that seat on stomach
is a level 2 trick. I learned to do seat out in front, seat out back
then I learned seat on stomach. A friend is trying to learn that trick
and was having problems, so he learned seat out in front first.
To learn seat on stomach, get next to a wall or volunteer. While on
your unicycle take the seat out (slowly) and put your stomach on the
seat. When learning it is advisable to keep one hand on the seat while
the other is flailing about for balance. When going a few revolutions
becomes easy try having both hands off the seat. For more advanced
tricks with seat on stomach try a figure eight and for really advanced
tricks try doing stairs (just kidding).
