How to ride an Electric Unicycle! - A Trainee's Perspective - YOU CAN DO IT

[@billhickok4701]

Thanks again UStride for teaching me. It’s only been a few weeks, but I ride daily on my Tesla and the comfort level gets better each time. So fun!

[@UStride]

Yeah man, most definitely. Thanks for choosing U-Stride. Although the point was to get you riding, the goal was to get you grounded in the basics of riding the wheel properly with lessons that will guide throughout your EUC experience. So glad for you man. Happy riding 😎💪🏿

[@ThaBlackCobra]

Great job and welcome to the Wheel Life!

[@ullle66]

Man, seams like you are a natural talent! Great!

[@bryanbryant9962]

Thanks Bill for sharing your EUC learning experiences! Thanks U-Stride for this interesting look at your training methods!

[@kitkat0981]

So how long did it take you from starting in the court to the cycle path without assistance

[@tiaguerra7002]

Wow!!I wanna ride like him!!!!

[@jamesm217]

you and mike from 'isthereanyfood" are the best 2 EUC teachers out there, your student did amazing.

[@mikeintampa250]

I agree James, their videos both taught me how to ride. And that student picked it up quick.

[@ionflow1073]

I like the way you explain everything and break down the learning process. I wish you were there when I was teaching myself.

[@UStride]

Thanks man

[@neatflux]

Oh man I love teaching people how to ride. So great to see it click.

[@Stan0619]

I love the EUC life. You have two people from different walks of life, merging for one goal. I have been moved by this tutorial. Thank you for being the best U, and creating a better world.

[@NYCmomwifeteacher]

It's a workout! Pain for days in places I didn't know pain was possible.

[@TheSkyHive]

Great teaching man!

[@2slice805]

My Brother, it’s beautiful what you are doing with this training program

[@UStride]

Yes sir, thanks a ton for that. I wholly enjoy this

[@00708046]

Wow . He learned fast. I tried for first time today on grass, a little too bumpy , in a hot blazing sun . My shin couldn't stand the pain , my angles on my wheel weren't calibrated right so it cut out when leaned making me restart and I almost died from the exertion and heat combined . It is important to stay out of the heat while doing this . The stress and body exertion is enough to make you sweat . I'm 68 which isn't going to make it any easier .

[@diamondZBISKA]

this made my day! im happy for this new member of EUC riders! good teaching !

[@UStride]

Haha yeah man

[@garydahl4488]

Thank you for posting this video and your 12-step video. I’m 55 and I had never ridden an EUC before picking up a new 16X last week. I took my computer in the garage and followed your videos using the garage wall. After about an hour I was off and running around the neighborhood. All the extra reps really paid off and I’ve been having a blast on it. Thanks again for the videos!!

[@bernardobuffa2391]

Awesome teaching, congratulations. I taught three guys to ride, and I must say is a magic experience, like teaching a kid to walk. My approach is a bit different, having no support from scratch (wall or railing), step 1) one leg on the wheel other on ground make little steps... 5 mins... 2) same.. bit longer step s 5 mins.. and 3) keep with same until you feel in a unforced, relaxed and natural way, you can mount the other leg too. It worked perfectly with the three guys. Kind of magical feeling, because they expected a much harder training.

[@UStride]

I hear you man. It feels amazing.

[@Kay0Bot]

You guys are so nice.. My method is to duct tape their legs to the wheel. Then dumping them in middle of empty parking lot.

[@bernardobuffa2391]

@@Kay0Bot LOL

[@Hali2001]

You are great! Today was my third day on wheel but... I wish I had a teacher like you!!!

[@Carlingian]

Just literally got my first EUC there now and it's charging. Kinda nervous but excited. If only I had an experienced rider like you to coach me like this lol. Can't wait though!!

Omgoodness I'm loving this our EUC community is getting larger by the month. I'm seeing more and more EUC videos then I did 2 yrs ago

[@zmajmr]

Hi, i made video 3 days ago about learning riding EUC, also made title You can do it, i guess it is universal feeling, you can do it 😁

[@UStride]

Noiiiicceee yeah because motivation is essential know what I mean?

[@FlowCat]

Awwwh I love the enthusiasm from both of you! It is so nice to see someone learning an EUC without being frustrated 😁 Ustrides you're a great teacher!

[@UStride]

Yeah man. It's very inspiring actually. Thanks man

[@BunnyslippersEUC]

I can hold a pizza box and eat a pizza, while riding my Inmotion V5f. But I still cannot ride backwards with a wall or railing. Yet this guy is already doing it.

[@UStride]

Hahaha you're funny man

[@arcrides6841]

I love your enthusiasm here. It would make the learner much more enthusiastic.

[@mikeintampa250]

You stride that was a great idea to start off inside of a tennis court. You are a great teacher!

[@josephcandelario4904]

I'm now learning to snowboard. I can relate to what the learner said in similarities of EUCs to snowboarding.

[@rcgldr]

You might want to explain that tilting (inner foot down, outer foot up) an electric unicycle causes it to turn (due to camber effect), independent of weight or body lean. For slow speed tight turns, a rider barely leans, but tilts an EUC a lot, and for EUCs with wider tires (like 3 inches wide), at higher speed, a rider leans more than the EUC is tilted. Twisting an EUC also works, but is mostly used for slow speed. At the tennis court, it looked like it would have been better to go across the end of the tennis courts, since there were no benches in the way. From what I see in the video, the riders were riding fast enough for the EUC to become stable and essentially self-balancing. I started off at unnecessarily slow speed, 3 mph or so, using arm flailing and twisting, doing laps around a tennis court, but switched to a long straight where I found my V8F became stable at around 6 to 8 mph and I no longer had to make balance corrections. I then learned to tilt steer. I ride a motorcycle, and my experience is looking doesn't turn, only control movements. For example, I look to the side and back before changing lanes. One of my goals when learning to ride an EUC was to be able to move my arms and look around without upsetting balance or changing direction, which took a few weeks (about 30 minutes a day, 3 or 4 days a week).

[@ThaBlackCobra]

Great job with the newbie bro. I like the progression. He did great and so did you as a teacher. Proud of you bro.

[@UStride]

Thanks bro

[@MalcontentYouth]

It was thanks to U-Strides 12 step video, that I am doing so well. Commuting back and forth to work this week. Love my 14s..

[@Blebona]

Professional, adaptable to skill level... This is a legit lesson.

[@ullle66]

PHANTASTIC teaching ...Really!

[@UStride]

Thanks man

[@agustinustedjo4490]

Great teacher, fast learner. 👍😊

[@Tsunseyu]

When I first trained on my new EUC I ended up on my back, where as I looked up at the sky I was very grateful I wore a helmet and skid gloves, which combined with protective pads is a must for EUC riding especially for beginners like myself. Stay safe 🙏🏼

[@korling99]

That’s why I enjoy this channel so much!

Nice training session. I learned just from watching. If I lived in N.E. I would certainly meet up with you. Ottawa Canada is not that far but we have to wait for this pesky COVID thing to end so the border can open. Keep up the great videos. Safe Cruising! Craig

Hello, I'm still learning I think I can do better as long as it doesn't tilt back all the time on me because I have to jump off.and my right leg hurt feels like I damage it.i have to take aleave,a leave, pain

[@frederickoparah1669]

So following your tutorials, it took it 13 hours to ride unassisted, it still does not feel natural but with riding this will change.

[@williamturner3228]

sitting to standing and vice versa while riding is hard

[@danmiller5297]

Nicely done, both of you.

[@patrickmckowen2999]

Good stuff!!👍

[@silverwingshg]

Great instruction. I sure wish I had someone to teach me instead of teaching myself via KZbin. I have been riding now for 14+ months and currently on a KS-18XL (my 3rd wheel). Still not comfortable mounting and getting my foot position correct without holding onto something. I guess just more practice.

[@Adaephonable]

I am just learning myself with my V11. I am the opposite of you, I can mount easily, but I can't stay on after a few meters.

[@hyw079]

Your tips really helped me! 🙏

Ninebots2 they do also.tilting back all the time.i even try to move forward it still sinking back.i think I can ride gd if they don't do that

Would you ever give a group session to teach how to ride an EUC and charge per person?⁉️ Or just teach them for the passion of riding an EUC⁉️🙏🏽

4 days he also rented the wheel once he knew how to ride during the training and after the training

@@UStride Thanks for reply.

[@hyw079]

What song are you using?

Just out of curiosity, how long was the series of lessons? I can see from the clothing changes that this was several different days. How many times did you two meet up and how long was each day's lesson?

[@UStride]

This was over 4 days total for him to learn but part of it was due to him renting the wheel and learning some things on his own at his own home, then coming back to complete the lesson. This is the part where you saw the change in clothing. That was his final day

Wat kinda unicycle will not tilting?

Can you repeat and or clarify the question?

[@ImBigBossNotSeanConnery]

Do you do sessions in nyc, u-stride? Or maybe you can make a video about this. I learned how to ride seated but the problem is, I just can't sit down properly on the seat while riding. I can take off without assistance to ride seated, I can even stand while riding seated but I just can't seem to sit down while riding. My butt always sticks away from the seat instead of sitting on it whenever I try to sit down on the seat. I guess I'm just scared of accidentally accelerating on the wheel while doing that but do you have any tips on how to do this without getting myself hurt?

[@UStride]

Yes, you will initially accelerate when you first get down to sit
