EUC - Choosing Your First Electric Unicycle

[@ditttohead]

I am relatively new to EUC's... although I outgrew it.. the Inmotionn V11 was a perfect starter wheel for me and my daughter.. she also outgrew it fairly quickly.. it was the most intuitive wheel... I now own 8 wheels with a few more on the way... I personally feel the V11 is the perfect starter wheel. I gave it away to a good friend hoping he could use it to get more people into euc's.

Lynx would be the best for beginners

great video! I gotta send you a sticker for that awesome collection behind you

[@DawnSChampion]

@@EUCvibes thank you!! Yes!! That’s what was lacking in Mt collection!!

i thought the same thing

[@SpinupSquad]

I'm finding the height off the ground, the weight of the wheel(T4pro) and my personal body weight 200 lbs, difficult to understand how to learn as the wheel needs to be moving to have better ballance, but to be moving, you need to have an understand how to control it. These two areas make learning very difficult, as it's hard to get accustomed to the balance. After 15-20 min, I'm tired. The worry is damaging the new wheel with crashes, and not able to easily "jump off" without potentially hurting myself. Its very challenging. A broomstick seems to help, but still feels challenging. Still looking for some good learning techniques for ballancing and breaking the barrier to actually staying on the wheel for longer than 10-20 seconds.

I had the same problem. My solution was to watch as many "Learning to ride an EUC" videos as possible, sometimes more than once, and try to absorb and combine the learning techniques offered by the various presenters. I found it helpful at first to have a fence or wall or railing beside me as a launching aid, but only for the first hour or so - too much "wall time" can create a psychological dependency and fear of leaving the wall. The following video and its part 2 sequel were particularly helpful to me: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2aymptofLNqZ5osi=9vKAxA-nrspXKdWh

Can you go over how you would pad up your wheel

[@Anonymous_Sting_Rider]

Like # 4 I imagine that the larger wheel diameter the more easily it's stabilized and the small wheel diameter is too much because it doesn't have enough diameter to be as stable.

[@SGTD43]

started with the begode a2. modified it to accept normal pads and just added a sherman l for more speed and range.

I am enjoying the e20 with the seat and training handle bar I'm coming off of severe atrophy from my eSk8 leg break. I have issues bending my leg most days so I'm using it to help rehab and stretch my leg

[@Evolotic]

Good information 😊

[@Mugen3812]

I'm still on my first EUC (an InMotion v5f), but I'm looking at upgrading (preferably something with suspension), but budget is a factor.

Great content as usual Dawn, the feminine perspective from someone so able will always be worthy. Appreciate you always. 6 pac Gord

Thank you!! ❤️

Great information here.

last wheel suggestions?

[@DawnSChampion]

What do you mean? Last wheel?

[@zweemz2255]

@@DawnSChampion one last wheel to end my wheel buying addiction

[@DawnSChampion]

@zweemz2255 🤣🤣 no such thing!! There will also be better!! 😂

[@MichaelHollandOne]

I am on my first wheel, V8s and am looking for my next wheel. I want to by something that is going to last me for a while. I am not a speed demon, thinking cruise speed of 25 or 30 (currently riding at the tilt back of the V8s about 21/22). Currently my number one choice is the Commander Mini. Also looking at the Master V4 and the T4 Max. I want to stay around 2500 too if possible. Great video. Keep up the good work. Safe riding.

[@DawnSChampion]

@@MichaelHollandOne I would say Master V4 out of those choices because it’s the full size wheel

[@k9skool]

is Falcon good 1st wheel?

[@yankochoynev652]

I bought my first wheel in the winter, cause I couldn't wait to ride. Plan was to get it in the spring when I got more money and the weather is better and mby that's what I should've done cause I could've afforded to get something better. :D

[@Orangatangerine]

I got the rs19 as my first wheel. Still going strong, but oh boy the new wheels are tempting... Can't stop looking at the sherman L ( or maybe panther) for a long range wheel. Another year or 2 and ill definitely get a small wheel :) maybe falcon pro? Mten6?

[@Orangatangerine]

And you forgot about Nosfet! It's new, and only has one wheel so far, but still worth mentioning

[@noelleonard2498]

Wish the t4 pro had a smart bms

[@YASAJTV]

Are you getting younger every day? LOL-You look so fresh and energetic in this video. I agree that learning on too small a wheel is not a good idea. I would recommend a minimum of a 16-inch wheel.

[@Anonymous_Sting_Rider]

You have a daughter and she has friends why not start doing weekend TEENAGERS classes and rides in the summer time and do like a summer camp kinda thing? You surely inspiration to other's
