Start off by stepping onto the seat from a sitdown. Then practice doing that faster and faster and by the end of the day you'll be jumping.

Re: jumping from sit down to ss??

if you got hand brake its easy , start your sit down then grab your hand brake and ride that out for a few feet then quickly just jump up to the seat using your feet and the pegs to lift you up there dont pull on your clip ons that will just pull the 12 bar back to the gruond , the quicker you do it the less likley you'll f up , if you try to do it all slow and scary like than the bike will get whobbly on you and you'll fall and die ! be a man and just always have control of the hand brake !

Re: jumping from sit down to ss??

honestly, its all in your head, dont think about it and just do it. if you can ride a good sitdown and a decent balance ss you should be good. just go for it.
