I like that you put elevated mode last. It's a last resort and better for skate parks (pending what your doing. Elevated mode can get you into trouble when you go back down hill. If your on a steep street with any traffic at all and need to slow down and or reverse quickly, it will be more difficult to do so. Sometimes, simply descending down the other side of the hill or turning around to go back down will be sketchy as you grind your tail all the way down, forgetting you had elevated mode on. It's a little like the suggestion about driving on snow. Don't go faster than what you can react and safely stop to. Steep declines are like driving in ice and snow when your riding the tail down 😱. (never put fangs or any hardware thicker than float plates on your tail. This will decrease tail clearance, which is very dangerous on declines.)

Thought I may have broken a rib, hand/palm was grazed as well as my pride, changing my shirt was difficult for several days after that. I bought some wrist guards too because I felt the impact there. Too a break for a couple of weeks & returned, with a little more experience 😆 Also always wear a skull bucket!

An even better way that I've have leaned to carve up hill is to switch direction without turning into the hill. This involves being able to ride "normal" or "goofy" stance. It is not easy at first. It's like trying to write with your non-dominant hand. It takes practice, and I do mean to practice on flat ground first. Practice switching stances to change direction. This probably won't work for the Pint now that I think about it since it has simple stop and doesn't switch directions like the XR can.

Hi jimmy I have good news also question below in comments. My family is letting me ride nowadays in my neighborhood and to the shopping center. I finally got more confidence riding as well. I started on pacific mode and trained on small hills. After a few days I wanted to go on the bigger hills. So I tried elevated mode. I found that elevated mode helps my anxiety on new hills I haven’t been on before. But I enjoy skyline overall because it accelerates fast to overcome bumps, to go up hills without leaning too much toward and is the best bet for braking downhills. It saved me this time I was taking a detour and didn’t expect to bump into a huge hill. It went up and down the scary hill like it was on a track or something. Very fun to ride but I sure need to get safety gear. I’d totally recommend safety gear to the next people that ask me about the pint. Also thank you for posting a lot of videos. It motivates me a lot to keep going, learning and to enjoy the outdoors
@paulnozaki
@paulnozaki 5 жыл бұрын
Question 1. Is elevated as fast as skyline just more elevated to keep the rider more safe from the front/nose touching the hill or bumps, etc? (Like acceleration I mean. I noticed some changes in acceleration in other modes but I forgot to check skyline and Elevated mode speed differences as well so unsure if speed and acceleration would be different in those two modes) 2. Is elevated safe for downhills and dismounting uphill or downhill in case of emergencies? I’ve dismounted off of some hills with skyline but some uphills fling you off and downhill sometimes is too deep and the engine turns off with simple stop causing a backwards nosedive with simple stop so not sure how I’ll stall enough to let a driver pull out from their home’s parking (sometimes the park I go to the house’s have cars pulling out unexpectedly on the uphill and downhill to get there) 3. I’ve been having issues connecting app to the pint. It would connect and disconnect most of the time. Hopefully it isn’t just me 4. Since I got the hang of skyline should I stay on skyline all the time since my commute has tons of hills? Sometimes pacific can do it just the nose sometimes will dip if I hit a bump or don’t build enough speed early on the hill or before hill or when those emergency moments where I need to stop for a car pulling out of their house on the hills.. Skyline accelerates fast just in case I stall stop (stopping while slowly balancing forward so the engine doesn’t turn off when braking) for the unexpected cars that pull out on the hills. Thank you again. Sorry if my questions and etc might be messed up or misunderstanding. It’s 3 am here and I couldn’t sleep because I’m still mind blown that I survived my pint engine stalling on elevated uphill

If I had to choose, I'd nosedive uphill rather than downhill. Less time to accelerate towards the ground. Any snowboarder will confirm this. The impact is much smaller if you fall uphill.

I successfully rolled but when my elbow and hip rolled around they hit pretty hard on the concrete. To add insult when I arrived home my pads where on the doorstep from amazon.

Question, at 3:42 and 3:44 and 3:49, do you see the white battery indicator lights go on on the board? Is it possible you're lifting your heel, just a bit, while carving on the hill? Maybe another reason to explain why people will say their board "disengages with no warning" when they're riding, especially if it's slow enough for the OneWheel to maybe think you're trying to dismount, ending with what seems like a nosedive, but really isn't... Yes, that motor "quiver" can be disconcerting when going up a steep hill! Keep your COG even, and don't lean forward... be prepared for it! Great videos Jimmy, Float On!

I rented a pint x off someone from Facebook marketplace and I was super bummed that the performance was super low. It couldn't make it up hardly any midsized hills without nosediving. Well, turns out the tire pressure was only 9.5 psi. It's supposed to be 20. The battery was dying super fast too. That explains it. So make sure you keep an eye on that tire pressure too! And yeah maybe I should have rented from SUPrents instead. They probably check their tire pressure more often.

Bikes, ebikes are better in almost every aspect of transportation. Onewheel doesn't require locks, or a secure lock up area outside a destination. Onewheel fits into a car far more easily. If you're too lazy to bike all the way that's a big plus for onewheel.

The overcharge protection is moreover about protecting people from an overcharged battery, rather than protecting the battery. Remember, these are lithium ion batteries that can catch fire or explode under such conditions. Not something you want in your house as you go to sleep, or in an airline overhead compartment.

I have an electric skateboard and took about 6 months to decide about the Onewheel. I kept hearing people say how much fun it was and how awesome the continual carving experience was, and they also mentioned the safety aspect! I was like...is it really that good? And how dangerous is it? So I took the plunge and brought a PINT, and I have to say..IT REALLY IS THAT GOOD. The freedom to be able to turn on a dime, and go basically anywhere is so freeing. Is it more dangerous (yes) but if you ride within limits and use your common sense you can have just as safe an experience as a skateboard (this has been my experience so far).

@@gfranks007 For the record I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you for that really nice comment / observation you just expressed to me about your experiences with the PINT/XR. I have heard this before about the one wheel on other KZbin platforms. Everyone says the same things you talk about. I can tell you that I REALLY WANT THE XR and I am willing to pay for it trully......$$$LOL Problem is that I dont use a cellphone anymore since 2010 so now knowing how much battery life I have left would be crucial for me as far as "riding till the doors fall off" 😉👍the one wheel. I am actually controlling myself right now on pulling any trigger on the One Wheel because I am hoping that Future Motion may roll out a newR XR for 2020 with more range and an LED BATTERY INDICATOR ON TOP of the board like the PINT. I wrote to them a few times on Facebook without any real response to me, perhaps because they are so busy? So for now this is where I stand on everything OW. If there isnt any roll out then I am definitely going to buy an XR despite the lack of conveniences that I am looking for. Sometimes good things come to those who wait😁👍

@@HandsONreviews4u I was trying to find out the same thing with the XR (I would really like one too). I asked Jeff from the Float Life (his company makes accessories for the PINT and XR) and I thought he might be "in the know" being so close to what's going on in the Onewheel community. He didn't know, but thought that it would be quite a while. So I guess he thinks it's going to be longer than 2020. But no one really knows. I'm getting 11-12 miles on my PINT. I weight 130 Its.

@@gfranks007 Wow 11-12 miles sounds awsome😉👍 Yesterday while I was driving through Flushing Queens at night I saw a Pint and an XR two different streets, killer to see that and not have one of my own? But then again I am still waiting till 2020 and see what's up if anything with the XR? No rush to plop down $1,800.00 or $950 for just ONE elect ridable? I may be possibly going electric unicycle instead anyhow.😁👌

Aloha Jimmy My Name Is Allen From Hawaii I’ve Got The One Wheel Pint & This Video Made Me Really Curious About What Was Your Battery Percentage Going Up These Hills Because from My Personal Experience I Tried My Board Going Uphill And not even 10 min into my riding from a 100% charge Going Uphill Killed Half Of My Battery Life & I just felt Really Disappointed about the product it probably is just not made to go uphills as far as battery life ?

Hey Jimmy. Isn't there a "hill" setting that can be used for some of that uphill portion? Or does that setting not work very well? Not sure if the Pint has all the normal settings.
