Switching between a giraffe and a regular unicycle

Please forgive this long and silly question, but...

A few years ago--ok several years ago--when I was a university kid, a friend
of mine and I used to get together with our unicycles. For me, it was a
little awkward at first for me to get off my regular sized unicycle and ride
his giraffe, but I seemed to be able to ride it ok. However, when I climbed
off his giraffe and tried to get back onto my "normal" unicycle that I'd been
riding for years, it took me several minutes before I could ride it again.
It was like going back to when I was ten years old.

How do you psych yourselves into making these changes back and forth easily,
or does it just become natural with time like learning to ride a unicycle in
the first place.
