We know a lot of you are wondering, 'How easy is it to ride Onewheel Pint and can do it?'. Well we've given thousands of demos and the fact is, everybody can pick it up in a few minutes with a little instruction. We set out to find a first time rider to capture what that learning experience is like to give you a better idea and to provide some tips along the way.
And if you don't pick it up right away, don't be discouraged. Learning new things is what life is allllll about. Enjoy it and when it clicks it will be so rewarding!!!
A couple of our favorite tips:
- Bring a friend. Having someone to hold onto in the beginning makes things easier and more fun. Plus they'll be psyched they can try too!
- Remember to breathe! Relax. It'll help soooo much.
- Think forward when coming up to level. Too much weight towards your chest or back will take you off balance. Focus your energy and concentration out in front of you.
- Stand tall. No need to get into a super aggressive knee bend off the bat. The board is balancing you so the less you do the better. Do less.
- Look up. You go where you're looking. Don't look down!
- Forward is everything. Yea, we already said it, but keeping your concentration and energy out in front of you is so important. Even when you turn, you're still thinking forward which just a slight shift in the direction you want to go and lead with your eyes.
- Practice the dismount. Whether you are doing Simplestop or the heel lift, hold onto a friend or a wall and practice it 10 times to get the muscle memory down.
- Jump if you need to. The hop off dismount isn't as scary as it seems. A tiny hop off will get you out of any pickle as a last resort.
- Have fun! You're learning something new which means that you are a super-rad, adventurous person. Enjoy it! You're a legend. Life is good!
If you've got some advice that helped you get going, leave it in the comments below for others that are just beginning their Onewheel journey.
A special thanks to Reggie for being so game! It was awesome to meet you!!!!!

I like that kind of video. Another brand would have produced a video with lot of extra enthusiastic people, catchy music and way too many cuts and editing. But you choose to pick one person, let her try at her own pace, give her few advices, with camera at a distance. Like in real life. Like every person owning a Onewheel do with this random person you meet and say "What is it? Can I try?" Sticking to true things: nice move Future Motion.

I'm 50 and haven't ridden a skateboard in at least 35 years. So far I've fallen off the Pint (5) times, but I love it. The best advice is what he says; look where you want to go. Don't look down or off to the side. The board responds to where you're looking. For me, I ride with my right foot in front, so left turns are much easier for me. Another thing is when you're learning to ride it, you're tense so you're putting a lot of muscle strain on your calves; especially my rear calf. Once you relax and get a feel for the board, you loosen up.

Wow. She is awesome. I thought they were playing us at first. It really is that easy though. I was cruising around the backyard in minutes and I haven't ridden a skateboard since I was about 10 years old. That was a cool video to show people how easy it is to pick up. Just 3 more weeks for my pint and the shipping date hasn't bumped further out for a whole week! Yay! Maybe this will be the real shipping date.

This was the most helpful video. I bought my OneWheel two weeks ago and just tried it today. If I was in the situation of this video, here’s my newbie advice: The stance felt most important to me for gaining stability. I found for me so far that I should stand completely straight when going straight, but bend my knees some when turning because it feels easier for me to keep my center of balance on turns. Also, besides some framing issues occasionally, your camera man did a great job keeping up with the action and doing sweeps to keep the visuals interesting. Pretty good job for an on-site recording.

It’s way hard for me. I think it might be because I’m a skier, I keep trying to push against the board or move my legs and not my hips. The hardest part for me is getting back to level after turning. I always end up wobbling and losing balance.
