I have the same TAC bomber jacket and riding with that every day. It's pretty comfy and amazing when you fall (which I've tested already). Great video on the 5"Pioneer btw.. one of my favourite tyre in terms of grip.. truly amazing!

[@BIGboiFASTboi]

Another banger!! Love the shirt!

Great video! Stay safe and enjoy the ride!

Awesome video as usual 🔥 Also, link for the shirt? 🤔

[@ThatsGinterEV]

Thanks! As for the shirt...it was one of TFL's mystery tees, so I don't know if they offer it anymore - thefloatlife.com/products/mystery-tee?_pos=1&_psq=mystery&_ss=e&_v=1.0

How are you liking the 5 inch hub and also the tire in respects to the high cost? As being someone budget conscious myself, do you think it’s really worth worth it please explain and PS love your videos. Keep them up.!!!!

[@ThatsGinterEV]

I love it, and as much as I hype up Onewheels and accessories, you are right - this hobby is expensive!! I try to remind my friends not to buy anything until you feel that you have enough experience and skill to KNOW you can benefit from it. As I explained in a previous video - the 5" hub gives you a lot more sidewall which gives you tire suspension that can absorb all that uneven terrain. As you may have seen, I was quite comfortable moving at speed quickly on some of this chunky trail cause I knew it wouldn't just bounce me off (lowered tire pressure is a huge help too!). As far as the tire goes, it's a very high tread tire...something I know I can also take advantage of on the loose gravel and sand I come across here in the washes of the desert. Holding onto that ground traction allows me to take the turns faster without slipping out. So yea, it's a safer ride for me and if it saves me from a hospital bill, then it's worth the cost! 😜

@ Well funny thing about hospital bills… I’m still recovering from a horrible freak onewheel accident Oct 9. I almost died actually. Ripped my artery when my arm bent completely backwards. My son saved my life by using his shirt as a tourniquet & calling 911 !!! My floatwheel lost brakes on a small hill. The hall sensor failed ugh.

[@SeanPaulNotTheSinger]

Yikes, sorry to hear about the accident. Crazy. Glad you're recovering well enough to consider going back out there. As to your question to Steve... as someone who has gone through a lot of different Onewheel mods, the 5" hub has had the most impact of a single modification, though really, it's two modifications, as there's no factory tire that's 5". With TFL providing the cast version of the hubs, they're more affordable, but still expensive. I have two boards with 5" n52 hubs, a GT with a Street Pro 2 and a GT-S with the Pioneer. The GT-S is my dirt/trail board and it has the most benefit from the smaller hub with the added cushion/absorption. I also had GT with the Tech Rails 5' n52, that I had a Maxxis Rain on, and it was fabulous as well, but I gave that to my brother for his 45th birthday, and he's still loving that board with that set up. For me, looking at the bottom line, knowing that I have the choice between new rails or new hub/tire, and was thinking about the most impactful modification... it's the hub and tire, even though they're the more expensive choice. Rails would be my second upgrade.

@@SeanPaulNotTheSinger oh thx!!! yeah they’re out of stock of course but I’m definitely gonna get one now with your recommendation and yes, I’m barely getting back on my board but only paved easy flat pavement for now cause I’m not supposed to be even riding yet lol.

@@bigwavedaveskate my Physical Therapy doctor used to give me garbage for riding my Onewheel to my PT appointments... after a few weeks, I taught him how to ride. Take it slow, it'll all come back.
