Greg - from my personal experience of flying all 3 types, the 
immediate answer is "none of the above"!

However, I think the Tomahawk might be the best choice as it will be 
nearer the weight and inertia of the Europa.

After you get your licence, you'll need a type conversion course to 
drive your Europa safely and satisfactorily - and if it's a monowheel 
that will be a non-trvial exercise.

Rowland
