In the MTB video New World Disorder, when Kris first shows himself, he does a very cool looking mount. Do any of you know what this mount is and some details about it? For what I can tell, the uni is set on the ground, seat handle facing ground. Then Kris jumps on the uni and somehow drags the seat under him. Definately a cool mount!
I can’t really tell if he quickly reaches down and snaps it up with his hand, or if he lifts it with his toe. I can’t think of any other possiblities…is there?
where can i find the trialer for it???

No, not really. He lifts the seat either by hand or leg. But if he moves the seat with leg, he should put his foremost leg’s toe under the fork and pedal backwards 1/4 of a revolution in order to get the seatpost back under him. Either way, it seems pretty damn hard!
I wonder if this mount has a name?
Yes!!!
but not here!!!
someone who want’s kris holm when he rides in new world disorder ?

Ok that was pretty obvious. Thanks!

Freeride Entertainment has a teaser for New World Disorder on their web site, but there is no unicycling in the teaser:
YES!!!
I just learned the pickup mount after reading about it here. It’s actually pretty easy and took me less than ten minutes before I landed it.
jsm: nice! I tried it on my 24" Torker but couldn’t do it. I just got a trials unicycle so due to the shorter seatpost and smaller wheel it might prove a bit easier. The pickup mount is now on my learning list too, among with kickup mount and unispin.
