Got my first wheel today. V10f. If you can find a 20-30 foot narrow hall where you can reach both sides with your arms, it can really help with learning to move forward and backwards pretty confidently without fear of falling over. Maybe tape some padding to the sides of the pedals though so they don't scratch the walls / floor. Also made learning the whole staying in one spot by quickly moving forward and back pretty easy. I'd suggest taking loads of breaks. Do it for 10-15 minutes at a time then take a break for a few hours. Next time you get on it, many of the wobbles will be gone. I'm guessing it's because you're using a lot of muscles you're not used to that tire out quickly, and your brain continues processing what you went through unconsciously while you rest.

Nice one Kuji, I tried to teach my dad this way but he’s too stubborn. I let him try on grass for about 10 min, free mounting and cartwheeling (68yrs old too) then had him use me as a “wall”. Took him about an hr to be able to ride around the soccer field and about a week to feel confident enough to go on a proper ride. Once he was comfortable around cars, maybe a month or so of twice a week rides I took him off road. I can’t stress enough how fast you can get better if you get out onto some technical dirt trails. I’m so happy I stumbled on this hobby. It’s given my dad and I a safer way to play vs canyon carving on sport bikes. These things can toss ya off, it can hurt and you may even break something but ya should live to apex another day! He has about 1000 miles under him now and riding on pavement is second nature. I haven’t been able to try to teach anyone else, my friends think they are cool and know it would be fun, just think they will get hurt. Next time I find a taker I’m making them watch this before hand.

First: I love that you started by suggesting to adjust tire pressure - It's the kind of thing I doubt most people think about on any pneumatically tired vehicle, and gets people thinking about dynamics rather than just getting on and riding. Second: two possible suggestions from a motorcyclist who had you come up in the suggs (Inmotion suspension test, #algorithm) who has never ridden any kind of unicycle, but is now thinking strongly about getting one after one video - 1) I think you said it and she seems to mention it, but KEEP YOUR EYES UP/focused on where you want to go. Motorcycle general wisdom is that you will go where you are looking - looking down equals falling down. 2) BREATHE - this is the most general advise ever, but it may be the most generally overlooked. Held breath is the doorway to anxiety. We tend to do so when "trying hard" or "trying to focus". (goes to look up e-wheels for beginners)

I wonder if you should try to use a hoverboard first. They have two wheels, but the idea of planking forward to go forward is the same as Unicycle. I have a feeling hoverboards are very easy to learn, and i know 6 year olds ride them like nothing. I'm not saying it's exactly the same, there's differences for sure.

​@@sergeya4989I only just had this thought, I used to commute on a hoverboard when I was in school so im pretty familiar with using my weight to move. I feel like the hardest part would be nailing balance at a stop, cause you don't have the lateral stability of having parallel wheels.

Thanks Kuji! This was the only tutorial I used to learn to ride and was doing circles around a cul-de-sac after 3 sessions totaling maybe 45 minutes. I was WAY shakier on my first "no-wall" effort than the woman here, but after playing around some more I am riding with few wobbles - until I need to turn. Still learning how to do that consistently smooth. Would love another video about technique that goes beyond what you show here. :) Definitely appreciated how succinct the video was compared to other tutorials out there.

I have noticed in the videos I have seen that balance clearly seems to be the key. I like the fact that the instructor emphasizes the importance of holding on to the wall when you first are learning to ride in order to mount. It seems to me that pro or not that is the smarter way to do it to avoid getting injured trying to mount it.

I use soccer shin guards on the inside of my skinny legs. They were getting sore while practicing mount/dismounting. They make a big difference now because I don't hesitate to lean against the wheel as I did when I was sore. I just got my EUC at 60 years old. I gave up trying to learn to ride a skateboard because I thought I would kill myself when the board would shoot out from under me (forward or backward). This is not a problem with an EUC - only left and right, but you can just step off. I never felt at risk learning to ride my Inmotion V8. I crashed it a lot, but I haven't yet landed on anything other than my feet.

This video was sent to me by Jason at ewheels.com. I am 58 and yes I am daring to ride an EUC because it looks like a lot of fun! There are some good tips in this video like telling me not to fight getting onto the EUC until I learn to ride. Telling me about the tire pressure, not to hunch, look in the distance and lastly advising not give up are all good tips as well. I like the way you put actual verbiage up to emphasize important information. All though this gal did it in 1.5 hours, Its taking me a little longer because this is a self journey. Also as a side note: I was dressed up in full safety gear while practicing in a park. I was warned by an older gentleman (what do you think I am) that this is the fastest way to break a bone. I just shrugged it off as I know the risks I am taking. I did take a bad fall, but the helmet and wrist guards did its job I am here typing this note. Great video, thanks.

Not to mention my feet would KILL me after 5-10 mins. I finally decided to try wearing work boots and placing my feet more forward on the pedals with my toes "hanging" over the front of the pedals. I could instantly finally ride and even turn with those small changes! Moral of the story, don't just give up.... it IS possible, try different things, everyone gets things just a little different!

I know that feeling when I learned to ride the Ultimate Wheel, which is not electric. Initially I tried to just push off. I lost a lot of time learning that way and finally found a road with a nice fence of about 50 metres. That helped me get the hang of it in the end. In some youtube vidz they say you shouldn't learn that way, but that worked for me. Same as EUC where some peeps say you should learn 1 foot first and others let you put both feet on the EUC while holding on to the wall right away. I guess once should try everything and stick to what works.

Use a leash when you're learning, especially in public. Keep one hand on the leash (slack, not tight). When you inevitably fall off, it will prevent the wheel from flopping to the ground or running away and hitting people or other objects.

Just make sure that you disable the 'spin kill' button (connecting to wheel via bluetooth in the mfg app) if you have a wheel that disables when you pull on the handle. You don't want that thing turning off on you while youre riding!

Exactly. I tried to practice first near a rail but later I put a leash on and it instantly helped me to free ride immediately! I strongly recommend it for first timers (additional benefit is that when hopping off you are not damaging your wheel covers and even later when free riding on the street the wheel doesn't escape hitting a car or something). Yes, make sure to disable the spin kill switch (tape 2 spacer to the switch for example thus preventing it to get pressed by the leash)

For slower speed, it might help to teach yaw steering via arm flailing, flail left to steer right, flail right to steer left, to steer into fall for balance and to direct the EUC. Dora does this at around 7:20 into the video, but later on, she's going fast enough for the V8 to become stable, which was Kuji's point in getting Dora to ride a bit faster on her first point to point attempts.

Yes. Great video. I picked up a Tesla. My first unicycle. Trying to learn. Went out today for a while. My second time out. It kills my right knee because I need a knee replacement. But I don't give up. When I have to bail it's always behind me and I get whacked with the pedal. I think I'm trying to hard. Also I skipped the part where you control the wheel with your right foot. Where you glide on just one foot. I'm going to concentrate on that next time. I see now where that is very important. I'm just trying to get on and go. Thanks for the video. I will now follow the steps you suggest. Peace!! Steve from massachusetts.

a 5 yr old video, but still useful. I also just got my first EUC, the Kingsong S16Pro. It is 33kg or something. I tried it for a few minutes and it is very difficult. I've been riding non-electric unicycles for 9 years, so I figured I could learn this too. I can also ride an Ultimate wheel, which is basically a narrow wheel without pedal cranks. The cranks a welded directly onto the wheel. I figured it would be something like that, but a UW is less than 1kg. Like with all of these things, they just take time and you have to keep trying until it clicks. That is why I got into riding unicycle in the first place. Everyone can do it as long as you are persistent. That took me 3 weeks of 2 hours a day initially and another week of learning to freemount. If I can ride EUC in just a few days, I shouldn't complain.

Since im on the hi weight limit, ive elected to put the pressure closer to the top limit to make it easier for it to roll and not burn it out. Now, most of these videos advocate to put your foot centered on the foot plate but ive discovered through trial that it helps me control the addition of speed by placing the balls of my feet about 10 mm off the front edge. Its just as fun to "discover" these little detais each day as it is to ride further each day.

She is clearly awesome at it because I got the same one and every day I try for one hour but in nyc sidewalk. Hard. People walking I have to stop etc. not many places to practice around home. I was extremely frustrated and regretted buying it. I swear. The. I watch this video and want to keep trying. It is very heavy and difficult but I see others flying around with one so I know I will be able to. It will sure take me a long time but for a 44 yo guy with hip and shoulder surgeries I have to give myself some credits too. But the little progress I make everyday shows me I am in the right direction. Hope I don’t break a bone. Thanks for the video

I believe in you! Just give it a few more sessions. Bring a friend along if you can to lean against and slowly start depending on them less and less. Its better than using a wall. The biggest risk is not while learning, but when you become overconfident with high speeds. Stay under 20mph, wear protection, and youll stay in the safe zone.

Shin guards (e.g., soccer/football version) work really well to alleviate the pressure on lower leg. Obviously, you need to rotate it slightly to face the wheel, not the front. I use just one on my dominant leg, and find that it really helps to take that initial control of the wheel. Set it up under your pants to avoid scratching the wheel.
