I have watched this video for at least 20 times, watching carefully every inch of your instruction. Struggled for a while but the main thing is practice, practice and practice. And finally, how sweet it is to find the "sweet spot" Thanks for sharing !!

I watched your video multiple times before I got my T 12. You make it look so easy. When I took mine out fir the first time today, and following your instruction, I couldn't get it to move forward to save my life. I'm going out again tomorrow to try it again. So I watched the video again to make sure that I'm doing it correctly. Great video by the way.

I found eventually that riding one of these the motion is very much like what you see skiers do down mountains. Did that motion and immediately got my very broken trikke to ride good. Getting a better non broken one today which will likely be much easier to ride 👍🏼

+Moose Casey Thanks for that. It is very very hard to analyse yourself when you are riding. I tried to break down what I think I do to get it moving. Once you get it, it just feels so natural.

Love this, i am Maybee to light,,, Can it be dificult to steere...?

@deborahbauman5366 3 жыл бұрын

I’m light and I initially could not move it at all unless going downhill. Shifting body weight concept didn’t work for me, I had to think more like roller skating... so I had to shift all my body weight to one foot and push out/down on the other peddle like a skate... that worked much better I was actually able to have a little fun. As someone else said you have to find the “sweet spot”. It definitely takes a lot of patience and practice. Personally I’ve had mine for several years and never mastered it enough to really enjoy it. So I’m finally going to kick it to the curb.

So very unfortunate that Trikke Tech abandoned body-powered models!!! Instead of catering to the general fun and fitness populace, TT now only build and provide high end (very) expensive electric models.

@sammuldoon3725 5 жыл бұрын

I was hoping that you picked up your feet and pushed out to the side, like people do whing roller blading. I was hoping it was basically like roller blading but easier and safer. For example, you could not do the splits, because there would be a limit to how far the two rear wheels could be pushed out away from each-other Also, you could not windmill your arms and fall over forward on your face. The the front wheel and handle-bars make falling forward difficult. However, that's clearly not how a Trikke works at all. You don't use your legs very much.
