Happy Thanksgiving! Today we wanted to go back to the basics. How to carve a Onewheel Pint & Onewheel XR (or How to Carve a Turkey).
Write below what you're thankful for! We're super thankful for all of you guys and of course, our Onewheels!

Mann, I need a sweet patch of road like that x)

[@douglashughes2331]

Well done! Presentation, instruction and filming all top notch.

[@FloridaFloatBrothers]

Thanks!

"I used to be about speed... " A story as old as the OneWheel itself.

[@Jhnmor]

Excellent video. Former snowboarder transitioning to One Wheel. Great tips

[@imabud1203]

I love how detailed and informative this video is! I naturally have built similar foot placement and carve control from longboarding(Penny 22"), and after your helpful tips on floating I now feel more confident making the switch when my time arrives(3 days) thank you so much(subbed!)

[@FloridaFloatBrothers]

Thanks! We're stoked for you! Nothing like a Onewheel!

[@ThisAllSoundsGood]

If I wanted to go in a straight line I'd be on my bike and I haven't ridden my road bike for over 2 years. This tells you how I ride. 🌊

[@ASiggeris]

Great tutorial, always feel like I'm carving wrong on the XR, then find out it might be the tire. THX

[@FloridaFloatBrothers]

You're welcome 🤙 it's possible to carve on any tire, but the stock Vega definitely requires more effort

[@zoojersey22]

ahh, that Florida weather looks nice, gotta winter gear up here in NJ to float in the cold but it's all good. I'll be down in FL for Christmas so I plan on bringing the Onewheel and doing some carving with shorts and a Tee. Thanks for the vids guys!

[@FloridaFloatBrothers]

We're definitely loving the weather here right now! Glad you get to bring your Onewheel when you're down here!

carving move fun....agree 100% with foot placing...saved my butt...many times..

[@HolySpiritMessenger]

This is what Onewheel is mainly for. To make it feel like you are carving on a snowboard.

[@tinothepilot]

Very nice explanation and camera work for the video. I’m just starting and liking the carving vs the speed.

[@FloridaFloatBrothers]

Thanks! Not much compares to the feeling of cruising and carving on a Onewheel

[@chrislindsey1278]

Super helpful content here. Thanks for breaking it down.

[@TheTrump]

Nice video guys, thanks.

[@FloridaFloatBrothers]

Thanks! You are welcome 🤙

[@kurt.leucht]

Congrats on 1,000 subscribers, guys!!!!

[@FloridaFloatBrothers]

Thanks Kurt!

[@MittensFPV]

Hope you guys are coming back soon! Miss your videos. Would love to see a tutorial or tips on high drops taller than curbs. Cheers!

[@rabs2020]

Onewheel gt here with the threaded tire it got so much grips riding on pavement

[@ScotMendenhall]

Great job. Good drone work. How do u like the drone?

[@FloridaFloatBrothers]

Thanks man! We love it! The size, quality, and price are great! We do wish it had the "follow me, ActiveTrack Modes" but understand they took that feature out to keep the price low.

[@felixssoto]

Very valuable information. Thank you.

[@jb_taster]

Nice job, fellas

[@johnmarkharris]

“I was all about speed...” yep “Tryin’ too hard” 👌🏻 Now get the MavicAir2

[@Catfish238311]

Great tips thanks!

[@TheSpacegirl777]

You said xr has not a round tyre so what model of tyre do you recommend to perfect and easy carving on xr? Hosier? Burris? Slick or not? Which size? I am looking for the same sensation as snowboard, the closest one. Thanks

[@Lotzo]

Yo.. Carving looks like we all tha #WORM lol Yo kno, when u on the floor 🤣

[@kelRGo]

Great video

[@achildofgod5180]

If you know how to tune. Your stock xr using custom digital shaping. You can carve like a beast.

[@deirdre444]

Thank you for this.

[@Farmhand2k]

Informative video done well!!!

[@chewypinecone]

Bro I need to know how did you make that turkey

[@MylonasFilms]

thanks for the tip

[@johnrangoo]

Considering carving coming from 🏂 Iam trying to lean into the carve as much as possible. How low can you go while carving? The perfect carve on a snowboard meant lying almost flat on the piste

[@FloridaFloatBrothers]

I did not mention them or use them in the video, but riding with flightfins locks your feet in better so that you can really lean hard into the carves. I typically ride with flightfins so I can lean way harder without feeling like I'm going to fall off

[@johnrangoo]

That sounds interesting! Please make a video of that!

What is your weekly filming/editing schedule?

[@FloridaFloatBrothers]

Typically we will record on a Thursday or Friday afternoon/evening and then edit on Sunday nights

[@NappyWayz]

So it is mostly on the backfoot? Lately, I have been thinking about it too much. As I turn, I am starting to feel I am sliding off the board. It feels inertia is sliding my backfoot off of the board. Although in reality, my foot is still in the same place. For reference, I have the Pro Fusion footplate.

[@brian_gonzalez]

Great vid - thx 🙏🏼

[@boazmckoy1060]

2:45 that kid in the back looks like he missed the bus

[@FloridaFloatBrothers]

Rumor has it that he's still waiting

[@ruthbeier5115]

Unrelated question - do flight fins make it harder to bail if I have to jump off for some reason or in the event of a nosedive?

[@FloridaFloatBrothers]

While they feel super secure when using them, they are actually surprisingly easy to get your feet in and out of (because of the way they're angled). I have had to bail once while using them and didn't really notice a difference than bailing without flightfins

[@SocialBobcat]

If I'm carving and feel like I'm going through a cycle of speeding up and slowing down, is that possibly an indication that i'm shifting my body too much front to back?

[@FloridaFloatBrothers]

Yes it could. Have you tried doing very slow gradual carves while focusing on maintaining a constant speed?

[@thunderbuddy78]

I seriously don't understand peoples obsession with speed on the one wheel. Most ill ever do is 12mph

[@douglasnakamura6753]

Me too - one of the main reasons I bought mine was the speed. Then I came off at speed in my first week, lost some bark and it was bloody scary.

Must have nosedive wheels! A local athlete died because of nosedive! and no helmet!!!

[@jamespahl6401]

walking's out of style

[@BrickThunder]

2:26 that kid looks like he has depression because he can’t ride the onewheel😂

[@billieberes3914]

4:16 is even sadder because the other kids get to and he's still sitting there by himself. It almost looks like he's being punished.

[@JakeLeary]

Small carves, more weight on your back foot - that's probably because your rear foot is slightly closer to the tire. If you put your front foot closer to the tire (compared to your rear foot), there will be more weight on your front foot. With the foot angle you are using it definitely makes sense to have the weight more on your rear foot, because you have more control over the wobble of the board when your foot is perpendicular to the tire rotation.

[@slashdotism]

Are you saying you haven't switched to a Whisper on the XR yet? What are you waiting for man? It's so worth it!

[@FloridaFloatBrothers]

Christmas 😉

[@BambooScar]

George North whats a whisper?

[@slashdotism]

@@BambooScar It's a 3rd party tire for the OneWheel XR. I've only ridden the stock Vega tire and the Whisper but I gotta say it's a world of difference. It carves, it's nimble it's silent, and is just an all-around joy to ride. Google: FF hoosier whisper and you'll get the flight fins page that sells it.

[@cosmowheeler7011]

top thks!!!

[@nancybashista1390]

Awesome! Thanks 🛹

[@kurt.leucht]

How will you celebrate when you reach 1,000 subscribers, and will you post videos?

[@sebastianmiles2034]

How deep can you carve with the pint, & what happens when u carve too deep eg face plant, back fall or does it stall? Any answers help I'm new to the stoke machine

[@yourmom8739]

If u carve toooo hard the board will roll over. If u angle too much the board will just continue straight and u will most likely fall off. But thats in extreme conditions. You will know the limit after a minute or too.

[@MarkTheMagnificent]

This is the only video I've found that explains the movements needed and didn't just say "jUsT LeAN iNtO iT aNd TrUsT iT" so I thank you for that. Great video, thanks a lot

[@jossegalvez-kong1778]

Hey!! Just got my one wheel!! Excited to try it out, thankful for this video and tips on how to ride!!!

[@nyccollin]

If you have to be told how to carve, it's probably just not for you. It should come natural.

[@brentkindsvater2264]

When I carve it is a speed up - slow down pattern, is this okay or do I need to even out the speed?

[@jeremyfancher9870]

Thanks, guys! Just learning on a pint

[@FloridaFloatBrothers]

Awesome! If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask

[@millhousekidstv9894]

Really great tutorial - nice and simple - thank you

[@mckinstryza]

What county in Florida are you guys operating in?

[@SteveSiz]

i want to see someone ride down the church roof to spine ride

[@meljenzo]

Thanks for the tips. Looking at getting one of these in the next month. Seems to be a lot like carving on a snowboard-weight on your heel or toe and guiding with your back foot. So looking forward to the OneWheel!! 🤙🤙

[@FloridaFloatBrothers]

You're going to love it! 🤙

Where did you find those mudflaps I need

[@InternetGangster420]

For the Pint

[@dw7647]

Is carving the same as snowboarding carving?

[@FloridaFloatBrothers]

When riding on smooth roads it's very similar to carving through deep power on a snowboard, but definitely different than snowboarding on icy conditions or packed snow

[@dw7647]
