what baby steps to seat drag?

[phlegm]

So I've been trying to seat drag (in front) for several weeks now, and I
did manage five whole revolutions once. However I usually get one,
maybe two. I've learned to ride and idle one-footed with either foot,
and I can mount/ride SIF smoothly as well. Are there any other skills
I should work on improving that will help my seat drag?

Seat out in front..
Try to hold it really far awayfrom you.. backwards, in circles..

Just about anything to help learning you distrubute your weight on your
pedals evenly :)

also ... try to just hold the seat loosely - let your balance pull your
arm around

Hmmm, yeah. I should learn to ride backwards with the seat out.
Riding seat out is so tiring. It's like learning to ride all over
again.

bend your knees while riding sif and tense them up really tight, so that
your not bouncing up and down and so you can keep the wheel wobble to a
minimum, then either let the sesat go and keep doing that till you get
it, or start holding the seat with less and less fingers, till youv
only got it by a single finger, then learn to drop it

Practice riding seat in front, holding the seat just by two or three
fingers, really far in front of you...the real thing is, all you need
is to keep pedalling consistently, and keep your weight evenly on both
pedals, so the wheel won't wobble back and forth and hit your legs.
