ONEWHEEL PINT | BEGINNER TIPS & ADVICE

[@attoghaveympops]

I just ordered my pint after drooling over them for two years. I’ve rode electric longboard and EUC. This is the best video I’ve watched

[@stevantures]

Congrats on your new PINT! Thanks for the positive feedback too. Have fun out there.

[@mahdi-ev9ye]

how is it

[@attoghaveympops]

@@mahdi-ev9ye It's a lot of fun. Took a ride or two to get comfortable on. After I got flight fins is when i really liked it. I still prefer EUC but its definitely fun.

[@garystratton4125]

Thanks for a good video on how to ride a Onewheel. I am almost 70...in good shape and getting a Pint Onewheel today! I have been wanting one of these because I haven't been in the water surfing for years and want to get back out there. This will be the ultimate training for that ...providing I don't mess up and get injured.. Going to be super careful.. Thanks again...

[@stevantures]

Hope all is going well and you bought the safety equipment needed. The Pint is a lotta fun.

[@renstillmann]

How did it go? 😁

[@Nthoonvr]

I am also getting mine today

[@nicoaleman]

Heads up the front sensor is only to sense if you're on it or not so it knows when to engage and when to disengage, it doesn't have the ability to turn itself. The turning comes from you physically rolling the board onto the rounded edges of the tire, either toe side or heel side.

[@stevantures]

Thanks Nico I appreciate the feedback. I am keeping it simple here for very first timers. When pressure is applied to the toes and heels of the board, the user is physically rolling the board onto the rounded edges of the tire. Focusing on big turns here until they get comfortable. Thanks again.

[@KARMA-vu8ii]

@@stevantures Keeping it simple by lying? The sensors have nothing at all to do with direction. Admit your mistake. or just continue to create worthless content.

[@foroparapente]

Yes, wanted to clarify this too, the turn is physical roll only

[@rewindd]

@@KARMA-vu8ii same idea as saying “you look where you want to go and the board reads your mind” OBVIOUSLY it doesnt read your mind, and OBVIOUSLY it cant turn itself, even the dumbest of the dumb will know it cant turn itself. i dont know how you feel the need to be a dick. i do think that he shouldnt have said that the pressure sensors are making the board want to turn, but its the same idea.

[@customsmithmfg4377]

Nice- are you up in Flagstaff?

[@Itsuki0419]

Another word of advice from a fellow onewheeler is that it takes a moment for the motor to engage when you first get on the onewheel. Most people won't really notice it but sometimes people will try to lean forward an accelerate before it engages and they will just walk it off wondering why it didn't accelerate

[@RasburryTe]

very cinematic camera work. love it

[@stevantures]

Thanks much appreciated

[@whoisthe1412]

Bro nice to see you make videos again.

[@stevantures]

Thanks I appreciate that.

[@petegaskell4274]

Thanks dude, really helped me out man, just bought one today....been pissing down with rain ever since 😩

[@stevantures]

Nice man congrats on your new Onewheel. Lotta fun. Hope it stopped pouring rain by now.

[@perfectgame23]

Very informative. Thx

[@cullen420]

im getting a onewheel and this video made me feel a bit more confident. thank you very much

[@eataylor257]

Great job Steve. Looks like a lot of fun. Is the wheel inflated with air? Do you have to be concerned with flat tires? Keep the content flowing bro. It's great.

[@stevantures]

Great question and I can't believe I forgot to mention the tire. I haven't had any flats but I do try to avoid sharp objects when I see them as it's very responsive and maneuverable. It's comes filled with air at 20 psi and you don't want to exceed that as it could damage the onewheel and void it's warranty. You can run at a lower psi but you get more range and control at 20 psi in my opinion. Thanks for the great question.

[@johnthompson8190]

My One Wheel GT had 20psi when it arrived but I lowered the air pressure down to 15 psi and it made it way more stable! I weigh 148 lbs and stand 5'6

[@TheRealNosfera7u]

Awesome video man

[@stevantures]

Thanks Wild Man

[@whoisthe1412]

Hey man what snowboard are you going ride for 21 season? Are you still going to ride the proto?

[@stevantures]

I will likely stick with the Proto Type Two but I may go with a new powder board. Not too sure just yet.

[@ghostinthetreeline]

This dude in this town, has WitPro written all over it. I'm kidding, Great video bro, I was glad that I'm not the only one that is terrible at this out of the gate. You're floating on this thing now. Thank you for the great content. Merry Christmas.

[@deirdre444]

Pint stopping technology is called "Simplestop," not "smart stop." Great video!! Thank you for helping us newbies.

[@markgarry7866]

Thanks for the great vid...im gonna step up for my first one and get a floatwheel adv. Faster and more range. 1800 cant wait to get my floatwheel!!!

[@Outandaboutphill]

Awesome background. Beauty! Where is this?

[@stevantures]

Thanks for the positive feedback much appreciated. That’s the Ten Mile Mountain Range in the background. I filmed this in Breckinridge, Colorado a little over four years ago.

[@ahyui3]

Any specific reasons why you got the pint instead of the xr? Looking to buy so still deciding

[@stevantures]

Well price the price difference between the two was the first reason. Another big factor was the range I needed and the Pint met that for me. It gives you a range of 6 to 8 miles while the XR gives you 12 to 18 mile range. I only planned on cruising the the store, work and joy riding around on pavement. Also the XR is ready to go off roading and I did not plan on that either as I like my mountain bike for that.

[@curtneywever585]

Ellbow and knee pad also recommended

[@stevantures]

Not a bad recommendation.

[@curtneywever585]

@@stevantures yeh man, last week I had the nose dive experience. I have cuts on my back mostly and my elbow and knee also had cuts. The front bumper with wheels is also for nose dive safety, but it's like $245,- 😭😭

[@stevantures]

@@curtneywever585 been there and its rough. Hang in there. And yes the front bumper with wheels aka "fangs" are a really good recommendation too. Just a little pricey. Have fun out there and stay safe!

@@curtneywever585 the ones from land and surf are around $100 a little more affordable

[@ClintonSiegel]

This is great! Thank you

[@CokefishR]

What do you think of the Pint X opposed to the GT? The Pint X isn't a whole lot smaller but it's a more attractive option to carry around as opposed to the GT which is bulky and aggressive. Also the Pint X from what I heard has a tighter turn radius. I'm looking at both, but I made a mistake buying a large electric vehicle before and it looked overdramatic and surprised people a bit when going down the greenway. Just looking for something that can travel over gravel and pavement and I can carry into the office without too many stares.

[@stevantures]

I’m not sure can’t really say. But I’d probably go with the GT.

[@diamonddog2817]

[@ChristopherMTantillo]

Hey, great video. Just watched all 5 of your videos on the pint. Been fighting myself since February of last year when i saw an add for these. I want one so bad but I keep backing off cause I don't know if I want to spend that kind of money (with all the upgrades I'd want upfront. Would end up costing me close to $1600 for a pint, if not more, which is basically a base XR. But your videos jsut make it see so worth it. So my 2 questions are: for someone who has never once done any kind of board sports, is the pint worth it and easy to learn? I'd mainly use it for fun to ride around the neighborhood and maybe when I'm feeling stressed and want a release. But also, are there any upgrades you 100% recommend up front that you have and others that you think you can wait on? I'm looking at getting all your accessories, but also getting the maghandle pro and the ultra charger that comes from Future Motion. Thanks again. And great content!!

[@stevantures]

HI cdsport13 and thanks for the great feedback. I believe the Pint has a very easy learning curve but everyone learns at their own pace. If you've never once done any board sports it might take you a bit longer to get comfortable on it and I believe you would pick it up. Take your time with it and remember to get all the safety equipment you will need including helmet, elbow/knee pads, hand protection and a nice open/smooth parking lot. Also be aware of the PUSH BACK feature and how to recognize it. Do not overpower that motor or it will launch you into the pavement. If you are just using the Pint around your neighborhood I'd say it's the right buy as you only get about 8 miles of range. If you need or want more range for longer adventures than definitely look into the Onewheel XR as it provides you up to 18 miles of range. The only upgrade I'd recommend at first is the Kush Nug Hi foot pad for the rear foot. It will make the ride much more comfortable and keep your feet happy. I would hold off on the Ultra charger at first and see if you really need that. The stock maghandle it comes with is just fine for starters so I'd say save your money there too. The Pint is still a lot of fun without all the upgrades! Thanks again for the feedback and I hope this was helpful in your decision making.

[@Rocketcoasternerd]

The fender is also worth it if your riding in the sand

Does it make that sound when I turn it on lolsz

[@stevantures]

Haha no I added that.

[@KaizenOz]

Great vid! I’ve had my XR for a couple of weeks and loving it, seeing snow for the first time in August, is there any crossover with Snowboarding? I’ll be getting lessons but hoping I will be able to Snowboard ok / safely

[@stevantures]

There are similarities with feeling of snowboarding and Onewheeling once you have it down. But if you're just starting off on snowboarding, definitely take some lessons. Good luck and have fun.

[@KaizenOz]

@@stevantures thanks for the reply, really looking forward to it and lessons are booked

(read at your will) hello! curently here from 2022. im 16 and in highschool, i have been a huge fan of onewheel for 4 years now (not even joking) even till this very day, i was wondering and curious if you still ride your onewheel if not can i pls somehow have it if you dont anymore? i know this is kinda weired for me to ask but its just that want to get to school and my basketball practice in a more faster, less stressful and easier way im rlly fund on going late most of the time lol. i walk 18-20mins to school every day, if im lucky my friend parent will drop me off. your probally thinking that i should ask my parents but my parent arent rlly the type that give me what i want, they rlly didnt since i was little just only on my brithdays, they just give me what i need and im grateful for what i have and understanding that things arent rlly going their way and been trying so hard not to give them anymore strees. but anyways besides that, the point is that if your onewheel isnt rlly in use right now and it still works can i pls somehow get it, it would be a rlly huge honor if i did. sorry if this is a lot to read, hope your are doing good today. God Bless! :)

Yes you can but it doesn't perform the well. It's ideal on that smooth pavement.

Thinking about buying a one wheel and taking my first ride in the middle of rush hour traffic in my underwear without pads I figured by the time I get to the bottom of the mountain I’ll know how to ride ill test out that pushback with full speed and let ya know how it goes figure I might use half a watermelon for a helmet

I can’t even stay on the damn thing without falling off and every video makes it look so easy I feel so pathetic!! I’ve wanted this for so long I finally get it because everything I’ve seen and read make it seem so easy and I can’t go more than a few feet without falling off!’ I have no idea why, I have no issue w a scooter or with segways e skates but this? I’m a total failure and can’t even return it - So that’s a grand down the drain, when the worst part is I want to ride it more than anything

[@stevantures]

Hang in there Joshua! Persistence wins out! Just make sure you pad up and wear a helmet. You'll get there. Make sure you're practicing on a large, smooth area like a parking lot. Good luck! You got this!

[@KaizenOz]

How did you go? Get used to riding it? I found learning on smooth grass helped my nerves when first learning (it’s actually harder because of small bumps - but having no fear of bailing onto grass helped a lot)
