How to Onewheel Off Road: Trail Riding Tricks and Tips!

[@Onewheel]

Congrats to Gearbox Media, Flying.V, and Vjcayla for giving some awesome advice, and winning the Fusion footpad giveaway! Thank you all for submitting your tips :D

[@mckinstryza]

You explained the popping your heels off very well. It is like skateboarding an snowboarding when you're riding through dips in the terrain - you almost want to make your body "float" through them in order to put less pressure on the board. Science!

[@jackashley7709]

when riding in wet grass, sand or mud make sure that you don’t carve as much. didn’t know that and went for an early swim😹😹

I learned just to take your time. You will improve at your pace. And always remember to have fun 🙂

[@Kiester524]

If your legs are getting tired, definitely just stop and take a break! You’ll refresh pretty quick and will enjoy the rest of the ride more.

[@NickCent]

You will get less tired, if you continuously slalom - don't go in a straight line and if you are warmed up, you should feel like a feather on the board. and be able to hop without getting off. Really relaxed is the way to go.

[@Kiester524]

Nick Cent My only main problem anymore is my feet falling asleep after a while. Quick couple minutes off and am back to riding.

[@nam6128]

@@Kiester524 I've found that certain shoes help. I have a $50 base pair of vans and a pair of more expensive pros with the comfort cush insoles and my legs and feet wont get numb as quickly in the nicer pair Edit: even wearing high tops instead of the low vans makes the board feel more sensitive to input

[@1world2coexist]

@@nam6128 - totally agree with you on the shoes!!

[@peacockhorsepower3181]

Vans are cool but suck.

[@ryanalston4234]

This kinda goes along with practicing bails. Practice the infamous "nosedive". No I don't mean push your board as fast as it goes til you get ejected off the front. Instead, find a steep hill(grass would be ideal) and try to climb it. Go with moderate speed but keep in mind that the first few times you will likely fall off. But try to keep the board going even when it kind of "gives out" on you. You'll feel the nose start to dip. Try to get get pressure back on the back foot and keep it up. This will help you in the long run and is a big help in keeping you from getting hurt.

[@smittysmith1587]

I'm a 40 year old, riding for two months with 80 miles on my onewheel and love it. My best tips are ride with a friend, wear skate shoes for control, and get some fangs for the nose dives

[@mcfly_ev]

I just finished a 10 mile single track ride, beautiful day, awesome ride! There is nothing like getting out in the woods and ripping. It's just the most amazing feeling. Off road Onewheel riding is hands down my favorite kind of ride. I think it makes you a better more intuitive rider, having to think on your feet. Every time you round a turn, looking at what's ahead and thinking how am I going to get down this. The more you do it your brain is making tons of light speed calculations, left of big root, over left rock right is too big, hit the middle root to jump over the rock. You get the picture. I feel so thankful during these stressful times to be able to got out and tear up the trails. Thanks Onewheel!

[@maxwellreinbachs5741]

Agreed, nothing like taking the onewheel off road after a long week!

[@haubenta]

One thing I learned the hard way.. don’t ride over obstacles slow.

[@TZGFourteen]

I disagree, whenever terrain gets tough, I crawl over it

[@MattAngiono]

I agree.... certain rocks are way easier to pop over with some momentum

[@xfleazillax8413]

There is a balance and I find that I roll pretty hard into rocks ,sidewalks and Roots.. But when there are just tons of roots I get slowed down pretty quick then it’s slow and technical from there.

[@Tactical_Taco]

It’s situational. Learn the limits of the board and you will never question what it can or can’t go over.

[@NickCent]

@@Tactical_Taco that's it. A nollie move (jumping a little leaving the front foot last, so the board accelerates just before you lift your weight, and the wheel will spin while you get over obstacles.

[@keithharper88]

New to the float life myself at 45 years old... really wanting to ride my Onewheel to the train and there are not enough shoulders along the roads on my route. So I will be riding in lots of dirt and gravel. I tried yesterday and failed pretty epic-ly, the board feels super squirrelly. Can't wait to try these tips out! Please keep the tips coming, I am watching every one of these videos and studying like a hawk!

[@zeeventures920]

Love that you pointed out not to “muscle” the board into going where you want. Riding a onewheel is all about respecting the board and its physics. Once you understand how it reacts to different things, and how you can react to its reactions, riding it will be more beautiful than you could have ever imagined

[@Onewheel]

Love this. Thanks for sharing the stoke Zonewheel

[@jaggst3r597]

My best tip is to PRACTICE my house is up a mountain located on a small island in Spain called ibiza I had been bugging my parents for ages to get a onewheel saying that I could get all the way to school every morning anyway the day came when I got my onewheel and I was so stoked but i was scared of the mountain trail that was inbetween my house and my school so that morning when the day came and my parents told me hey , weren't you meant to use that to go to school and I replied with yes so I got up at 6 o clock in the morning take in mind that by car it takes 10 mins to get to my school and my school opens at 845 anyway I was pumped to get to school and I knew I was gonna get there but I thought it would take me 1 hour so I left at 745 and got there at 815 I remember practicing in the car park till the gates opened and on arrival looking at my watch and being astonished at how quick I had done the journey since practicing every day that trail ride I have done it in under 7 mins I allways wear trousers helmet goggles and a lightweight face mask and most importantly I have an absolute blast doing this ride and it pumps me up for every day at school

[@stu7900]

That's awesome. Sounds like you have a great life and loving parents

[@glenngrant7874]

When riding blazing a new route of-road for the first time go slow and scout it out carefully, and as silly as it sounds treat all grassy areas as suspect until you've ridden over them. You would think the grass would be on the safer-side of terrain however it often holds hidden dangers, most notably soft squishy wet patches and holes/dips. My only serious Onewheel injury (knock on wood) came from an unseen wet and squishy patch of grass. The board sunk right in and stopped dead. I did my usual run-off however because it was squishy wet grass I immediately slipped and slid. I caught myself but also dislocated my shoulder! The worst part was the fear of going to the ER during a COVID pandemic, but I managed to get it popped back in at home. My wife was not super happy. ;)

[@VacheManoukian]

Great advice and tips! 👏 One thing I would add is to “Look ahead”. Especially with off road riding, you need to keep your head up and steer with the eyes. The more you look ahead, the more information you process; with more information you make better decisions.

[@vjcayala]

When riding offroad I've found the following helpful (especially while learning): -Think of picking your line as a problem solving game, the path of least resistance may not be the most fun but its probably your safest bet. -Deep carves & mud (or real loose ground) don't mix, Float light when you find yourself on sketchy surfaces -Bring a plastic bag & pick up a few peices of trash along the way, that way when you get the inevitable dirty look from a biker or trail walker who may be questioning the legality of your 'motorized vehicle' on said trail at least you know in you heart you've left that place better than you found it. ... currently riding stock footpads offroad but I fingers crossed that will change thanks to this post🤞🏼 Thanks for being awesome team Future Motion!

[@coolkid-qv8fm]

Here is a tip from my 3 week experience offroading, you all ways need a partner with you, it's not as fun and what if you get seriously hurt. So always bring a partner with you

[@Onewheel]

coolkid 101 a buddy system is an excellent tip!

[@coolkid-qv8fm]

Thank you for replying➖⚫➖

[@MattAngiono]

Yeah but then I don't ride as much 😕

[@stu7900]

That's why I take life alert with me wherever I go. Comes in handy when I can't get to my jitterbug

[@1world2coexist]

If you have to go it alone, let someone know what trail you're going and ETA when you come home.

[@jay345]

Environment is everything! Always keeping the eyes on the path and scanning every object and being prepared before each encounter !! I remember riding the onewheel in the first 2 days it was amazing but once I had my first ride on a trail that's when I fell in love and was amazed with what this invention could do !! I never get bored this is the best toy anyone in this life could have ! As a kid I always wanted that feeling of snowboarding on land! Best part is onewheel crush hills like butter !!! It will forever blow my mind and I'll forever be here watching and learning from all of you at onewheel!! Thinking about getting another onewheel and would love to try out the off road gear ! Thanks for everything!

[@mattallison6221]

I've found that momentum is usually a good friend on the trail. The board will have a hard time powering through rough terrain, sticks, roots, and stuff like that without the help of some momentum. Not necessarily going fast but just coming into things rolling. Don't take it any faster than you're comfortable with. Start with terrain you can handle and work up from there.

[@Onewheel]

Rolling into tricky situations is solid advice!

trail riding tip keep your feet light over the bumps and ankles not to locked in place

[@Jordan-wc1be]

I have learned to Respect the OW and it’s basic limits. I sometimes get over confident and that’s when accidents happen for me. I now where gear to help me with those falls so I can shred more. Don’t get me wrong a certain amount of pushing the limit is what gets you better. Little by little while having a blast! #tahoetrailshredder

[@tactical2010]

Hi OneWheel my trails skills are sometimes to either slow down or fast depending the trail. Visually analyzing your trail conditions for safe riding. Always with gear on. For protection to enjoy floating. ➖⚫️➖🤙🏻🔥🔥🔥

[@coolkid-qv8fm]

How do you know if you win??????

[@namaste3124]

Keep it loose and light !! There is nothing better than trail riding on a onewheel! Thanks FM

[@Swanlinbar1]

Good tips, main thing is just practice practice practice, giving yourself the time to get good 👌

[@TZGFourteen]

I find that keeping the carveability above 3 helps with off roading. Also, I have 2 custom settings that I use, along with delirium. I have 11 aggressive and +3 carve, with either +2.5 nose high for going up steep terrain, or a -.7 nose low for going down steep terrain. I use deliurim for everything else off road.

[@jeffvaphiadis9218]

I’m 60 and just got an XR - 50 miles in & got a black and blue thigh from the splits (you probably all know how that happened). That was the first day, now surfing up and down driveways, sidewalks, and streets. Can’t wait to work on loose ankles I expect to be pushed around less on streets cracks patches and holes. Thanks for the tips - trails are the ultimate goal.

[@connorlawrence9767]

25 miles in and couldn't be happier! I live in a small town and will be subbing my onewheel xr for my car to get around! Saving money on gas and having a great time doing it! Thanks guys👌

[@LarryCastle]

Just got my first OneWheel yesterday, the Pint! I’m 48 years old but, no exaggeration, I’ve been like a kid on Christmas Day since it got here. I’ve already got 10 miles on it. I’ve taken a few short trips of about 3 miles each. I’m also practicing tight circles and figure 8s just like this video says to do. I have also found it helpful to practice going up and down driveway bumps to get the feel for what it’s like to take a very big bump. Since I plan to begin using my Pint to get to and from work (about 4.5 miles) when the quarantine is over, I’ve also been practicing riding with my full backpack (MacBook, iPad, camera gear, etc.). It’s a very different feel with that weight on my back, especially getting going. Once I’m up and cruising, it’s not much different. Thanks for the tips and for making such an awesome product!

[@grossdavis]

I second the frequent bailing suggestion. The board is a tank and will withstand a tumble much better than your body can.

[@kane0331usmc]

My wife and I practiced riding in the back part of our yard which is full of mole hills to somewhat prepare us for trail riding and that's how we learned to keep the ankles loose. After a couple of attempts it helped us!

[@EpitomePax]

Just did some onewheel trail riding today, and I think that an important tip is to first get comfortable with the board on pavement, then hit the trails, sand & grass which are all completely different beasts in their own right. Second, momentum is key, the slower you go, the harder it is to maintain balance; one wheels in motion, stay in motion. Ps, I’ve been looking into a grippy footpad, good to know that you guys at future motion recommend the ‘SURESTANCE’. Float on my friends... peace ✌🏽

[@billamosphotography2235]

I came across this after 1400 on a stock gt and this guy says it all perfect. I was proud of a few of these tips I learned on my own and thankful for the others I just learned from you. Many thanks. One thing that has helped me is riding a same short route and routine before a long run. Would see the gains, pretty cool.

[@jakemartin2736]

Having just come off the board pretty badly this week trail riding, I'd say it's really important to keep your eye on the terrain you're about to cross. It's easy to get distracted by pretty surroundings on a trail, but if you're going fast and not ready for a sharp dip in the trail or a big stone, you're coming off the board

[@jerrysherman1637]

Love my onewheel. Keeping the ankles loose is the best advice.

[@TheGombo]

Awesome tips. Off road rules. I found keeping the knees bent and shoulders relaxed have helped me a lot too. I took a wicked fall on my right shoulder in Hawaii in Molokai. Couldn’t ride for weeks. Got back to Canada. Snow melts and I’m at it again. This time with slot more respect and awareness. Like Tai chi on the go! Will a 51 year old man ever learn? Love you guys for inventing such an incredible ride! Keep it rolling! Ron

[@wrede66]

We have soo many roots where I ride - it becomes a bummer. Once you get to smooth dirt - it feels so free!

[@op.awesome]

Happy to find a crew to ride with! Best tip is to ride with homies that offer different advice and encouragement!

[@danielwhite5356]

I’d say keeping your ankles loose and letting your legs absorb the bumps is one of the biggest ones to learn. Definitely helps going through a lot of the bumpy trails that I go on. Just got my helmet and I’m excited to make more videos. It’s always good to pick a line before going over a section, too! I’m always looking for spots where a wheel can fit through

[@PresentedByBailey]

i just subscribed. my son started hitting the trails within a week or so after i bought him a Onewheel. he was quick at picking up ice skating when he was young but has not done any other board sports than the Onewheel and just loves it. he agrees, trails are the most fun but he has been into "long distance" riding as well, for the adventure. he'll definitely bring his Onewheel to college in a couple years when he goes.

[@Metis272]

Riding on the beach was the best experience I’ve had onewheeling. Gotta try taking it tougher places.

Finally! I have been looking for training videos like this forever. More please. (Especially on foot cramps)

[@dawnalbrecht2235]

I've already face planted and broke my wrist and I'm back on riding again especially with more safety gear as you had mentioned. Definitely getting better and enjoying to ride again instead of being terrified. Thanks for the helpful tips!

[@curtstutzman2184]

You touched on this, but learning how to fall is critical. I ride a Pint to work (in dress clothes) often in the dark, up a hill that is large gravel for half the distance and farm pasture for the rest. There are rock outcroppings, holes, etc. I haven't put a hole in my dress pants or even grass stained them (yet!) because I have a ton of falling experience (I'm 55, and love skimboarding). I think that practicing how to fall (in your house on padding/on grass) is a great tip. Preventing a fall is first, of course, which is what this video is really about, but you will fall. Being prepared and doing it naturally is critical to avoiding injury.

[@mikerjandl]

Just got an XR a few weeks ago. I live a block away from a park with miles of wooded trails between two different rivers and I've been riding them hard. It's been a super good two weeks. My dog is actually loving it too! Best purchase I've made in as long as I can remember.. I've been riding in Mission for the most part, but whenever I'm on the trails I switch over to Delirium, and that feels more tight and I don't feel like I'm going to turn into the trees after coming out of a weird dip, or something similar.

[@noelstoddard6238]

Great selection of tips here. One I'd like to comment on is riding mode (XR/plus). You made a comment that you have to have loose ankles and this is totally correct. If you are riding a setting like mission or less, you are going to be fighting the board and your shins will be on FIRE! It's been my experience and most that I ride with to put the board in Delirium for trails, and Elevated is good too if there are some nice inclines. This really helps navigate those roots/rocks and bumps. Oh yeah, elbow pads are a must on trails too. I'm typically going too fast to run out and I plan on rolling when I fall. Having a pad on that front elbow gives me a bit of confidence since I know that's that arm that's making contact first. Cheers

[@AndroidSpirit]

FlightFins for my pint have allowed me to handle bumps incredibly well and gave me the confidence boost I desperately needed when I first started riding.

[@henrydenimdanger]

Drop that PSI too, I like riding around 15 on dirt and single track. It can get sketchy if you have a higher PSI and you're riding rough terrain, your board will bounce like crazy over every little bump.

[@cojobi]

My simple tip is to find old crappy roads to hone your skills on before trail riding. There is a neighborhood close to my own that has bigger trees with roots emerging in the asphalt. Great practice.

[@nam6128]

2:20 omg im so happy. I've felt so dumb throwing my hands up when i hit something rough im not expecting and was actually gonna try to curb that habit but that makes me feel so good to know that really good riders still do that too

[@jonathankaruna6975]

I ride with lower tire pressure, custom setting on the loose side so I can respond quickly to trail conditions, and I always spend some time riding fakie. Back foot forward never feels as comfortable and it forces me to be more conscious of my body position. Next time I am going to focus on making sure my arms are raised. Thanks for the tips!

[@brazenclips]

For getting past things like tree roots when you’re blocked but going too slow to bonk or de-weight you can sort of kick forward with your front foot while getting light on your back foot to nudge over it.

[@N-trepid1]

Excellent tips...especially for someone new to off-road. Im 60 and loving this XR. Just took the board off road toddy and these tips would have really helped me. Hands up really got my attention, as I have been riding "cool-breeze" with hands down. Love the safety reference also. Thanks for the material ;)

[@_Prost_]

The best thing I have is... Don't hesitate! Full send and you'll be fine generally. I hesitated on a curb drop and didn't clear so I fell and really hurt myself 🤙

[@jacobekker]

The wobbly ankles is something I've been learning lately. It helps a lot!

[@floatfiend9024]

Nice job on the tips. Since we float, I like to say flutter, instead of deweight. 😂 I also use this technique when going up steep, rocky terrain. When you flutter and deweight the board, it creates micro-bursts and helps you “pump” the board up the hill/over the rocks. Cheers! 🤙🏼

[@kathieandjoss5856]

Yeah the tutorial is really helpful, Mind boosting, in fact. I liked the de weight the board and the loose ankles-helps with the adaptability.

[@Onewheel]

Glad you found it helpful! Have fun out there.

[@bryanweil271]

I rode on primarily streets for 6 months before discovering the true beauty of the onewheel. Grass is alright, but trails...wow. A whole new ballgame. Float on, friends!

[@PhilippeAlexanderPagan]

Having lived and riden all over Oregon including Hood River and Bend, your video is exactly right. I would play a bit with tire PSI (same for beach). Other than that it is all PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE. Once you get a few hundred miles on trails it will become second nature to adjust for upcoming terrain as you float into the wilderness.

[@realslop]

For off-road (on pint) I would recommend staying in elevated mode along with keeping pretty constant speed 🤟🏻

[@TylerBellMakes]

Awesome tips. Super informative!

[@ChrisPrattFanClub]

These tips will be very helpful when I get my own XR! I live in the country where there is lots gravel and a River valley with some pretty large hills. The first time I hop on the board and get shredding will most likely be in gravel, so this is very helpful!

[@davemerrill1477]

Thanks for the tips. Basin is just minutes away and I’ll be hitting the trails very soon.

[@vincenttran4507]

Never go too slow on an obstacle otherwise it would cause an even more impact. Definitely learned that a couple times.

[@TheThunderjunkie]

Just got mine In the mail this week and this video was really helpful. I took it on the single track day two and it’s a blast. Definitely have been feeling more confident each day on it, I can definitely see blowing through board parts in the first few months though especially when finding limits and re defining only ones. All around a fantastic product glad I got it, I would be stoked for some replacement parts because I’m going to tear this board apart with fun!!!

[@fudgeknuckle952]

Don't expect too much! I often find stretches i'd like to cover offroad but turns out it's wet and i sink. Approach new stuff with caution. I needs that footpad!

[@Fordged]

My tip would be to let the board Eb and flow over the terrain and ALWAYS BRING WATER. trail riding is both awesome and tiring so hydration is key. Great video! 🙌

[@beckkya]

Just got my XR today and I like in a rural area. Great vid

[@lostwing]

I think the de-weight advice is key. Took me a while to get the timing straight. Also, I use a neoprene knee brace on my back knee (old guy....yeah) but it helps during trail riding to keep steady, and minimizes how sore I am after.

[@solace9500]

Thank you for mentioning safety gear, especially (wrist guards)! Very informative, job well done.

[@stefanc3814]

Great tipps, thanks! When I started going offroad what worked best for me was to really focus on bending my knees and staying low. For whatever reason that was really difficult for me.

[@itsbillcoop]

Amazing way of explaining. I am a relativity new rider and have about a total of 20 miles under my belt. Trails are really fun I have a bike trail in my neighborhood park that goes for miles and I ride there. It’s no real off road trail but really fun. I have to try my hands up. I’m also gonna work on my heel side turns. 👍

I literally just got off a local mountain trail lol! Great tips for sure.... One I would add is to not push it up steep stuff.... it drains the battery so much faster! Better to carry a bit and then have way more time to rage downhill! Also, gloves are my go to protective gear.... easiest way to break a fall is to have good hand placement, if it comes to that 😖

[@deandrawalter9012]

Such an awesome and informative video dude....thanks!

[@errorik-]

Going along with your trail awareness / de-weighting the board... I constantly look ahead and find my line that is best to avoid rocks and roots that are breaking the surface of the trail. Having a good line allows you to take the trail faster and spend less energy doing the de-weighting process.

[@josefrogoschewsky6458]

Great video. I love trail riding. I love being by myself with only my tunes. So much fun.

[@gravel.travel]

Going up bigger bumps on your heel side. A root or curb is a good example. I’m goofy so I’ll hit those turning left a little. If I hit them on my toe side it flips out most of the time. You have more weight over your heels so you don’t loose control as easily.

[@JoshuaLopez]

Speed is your friend! Riding fast helps smooth out some of the bumps that might normally make you really off balance. Staying loose is a necessity when going fast on trails! Practice practice practice. But ride confidently in fast and it will be smoother!

[@Onewheel]

Good tip but this feels more situational! thanks for the comment

[@LookitsTook]

Really surprised they didn't talk about digital shaping at all. Delerium/Custom mode for trails always. Helps so much for trails. Stoke on fellas.

[@Onewheel]

Also a great tip!

[@EASTRIDE]

Look Its Took I just to tend to ride in mission also instead of delirium which is by far really trail optimized but I like the extra bite and stiffness from Mission.

[@gearboxmedia799]

Just took my Pint onto single track for the first time and it was a total blast! The board is small enough so rather than muscling over obstacles I could simply ride around them and it had just enough torque to get up those steep hills. thoroughly impressed 10/10! Can't wait to see what you guys come out with next!

[@bechirjiwee5539]

Thanks for this precious tips, but you didnt mentionned the pain we can have, in the thighs or the foot fatigue you accumulate in long rides you only mentionned the ankles. But stoping or making small pauses are very important in my opinion, cause the first only time I fall badly on a root is when I was to tired so my foot and my body couldnt manage the stability of the board. Jimmy Chang in his falling video also mentionned that he falled when he was exhausted and thirsty .So keep hydrated and make pauses folks !

[@raginhaver]

Whenever rolling over obstacles, I accelerate quickly when the obstacle is directly in front of me but then as I go over it I lean back and put my weight on my back foot. I make sure I am light on my feet, especially taking weight off my front foot so I don’t nose dive. If you break before rolling over an obstacle then try accelerating over it, it’s not gonna go over too well. I hope this helps and keep the shred alive my dudes🤘🏼
