It's interesting that you mentioned whats going on with your knee. I'm experiencing something similar, and riding the onewheel irritates it. In going to see a doctor about it in a few days.

Make sure to spread the pins on your xt60 connectors and add a little dielectric grease, my pint just dumped me at 12 MPH.

Dumbest idea ever.

@@Scream4Cheese it's not just a loose xt60 connector mine was fully plugged in but the pins lose tension over time there was corrosion that formed, the dielectric grease prevents the corrosion from forming from micro vibrations. If you really want to make sure it doesn't lose tension in the future add the tip of a toothpick to keep this pins spread

Add a Floatwheel GTV kit, then it'll be fun.

Expand. I was mainly referring to power and torque. I have both, that is MY experience.

It's always the psoas. Literally the most important thing I learned in all the PT sessions ever. Keep your psoas tuned up and the rest follows. There's a lot, in fact most of what at least I was taught in school, even through college, all those classes and health electives, etc, not a single mention of what I now know to be critical components and connections in the body, most notably, of course, the psoas and the quality of life impact of not keeping it maintained. Did I mention the psoas is important? Okay, then.

Yes I get it but what is the best way to keep it maintained?? lol

@@Duf no lie, find a good LMT. Someone who knows trigger therapy (myofascial release) and gua sha/graston techniques. You're gonna hate it at first and you'll always go through ice packs after a good session but the results are night/day when you find the right person. Once you find a person who can teach you about your insides and more importantly how to drive input stimulus to the edge so you can get a good nerve flossing or just understand how far and what direction to push it; I believe intuition is learned and it takes time to understand, realize, and get over these tiny motions or positions that can unlock larger groups of your body's function. My progress is slow to nil because mitigating circumstances have left me, alone, at odds with not just life but living with the obstacles in my path that refuse to yield so far, but someone who is in control of their environment could see initial rapid recovery and an easy maintenance routine; I've done it before, it's a sad state but the people here literally do not want me to get better because I will leave this place finally and get on with my life after the accident (TLDR; ended up with a pack of covert narcists that completely lack empathy, then I got hurt and found out what they really were once I needed help to actually live). 10 years isn't bad, I figure - some people never make it out, some people never recover; I'm at about 7.5 years in at this point, being as patient as a location-bound person can be with people sitting on their head who'd make me homeless again without even a first thought if I stop paying their bills... I just never give up, once committed, and I'm committed to getting out of here and having my life back. I've got too much left to do, build, make, share. And I miss my woods, mountains, beaches, and rivers... The only thing that keeps me moderately sane is my abject trust in shock proteins, autophagy, and cellular mitosis. If those things weren't working right now, we'd be dead. If we weren't regenerating right now, we'd be dead. The modern general consensus is that aging is a disease and not an eventuality; I continually work on reminding myself to frame my thoughts and concepts from that view, instead of the one where I'm just biding time until my existential issues are resolved for me;-)
