that's awesome dude, I love it. And I agree the starting/stopping is probably the most important skill to start. I'm pretty confident with it at this time, but I can still mess up, especially if I'm trying to get started up a hill.

@@JohnEFly the mount of shame - happens every time there's a crowd or a pretty girl

Nice just wear SAFETY gear so you look like a soldier and you’ll be fine. You will fall so being protected means you take a ride on the trail not tot he ER

@@pedro-on-wheels you mean the dis-mount of shame

thanks man, the EUC is definitely a great exploring device. And I'm definitely at the point where I'm constantly riding "near the limit" of the V8S. I generally cruise around at 19-20mph and have a lot of tilt back and beeps. But it's just so comfortable and confidence inspiring. 300 miles in it's certainly not as agile as the onewheel yet, and it's hard to imagine it getting there, but it's rare for that to cause an issue. I do scrape my pedals quite a bit on this thing when I'm trying to maneuver too hard.

@@JohnEFly I rode an XR today. First experience. I now understand the appeal. Your right though, it's eaier to learn and it is more agile than the EUC. First 10 minutes of riding and I could just feel the agility potential. I took a 35 mile ride on my EUC. Explored 3 subdivisions. Rode a mild bike trail. Rode a greenway path. Stopped by DG for a drink. Went down a flight a stairs. First 5 steps. OMG.....Adventure

Thanks bro, that support means a lot!

I'm over 200 miles on this wheel now, absolutely loving it. And I agree, small sessions are definitely more important with learning than long ones! Thanks for the tips

good luck! There are tons of great wheels to choose from. I'm glad this video was helpful

yeah the big advantage of the onewheel is low speed stability that comes from the wide wheel. You can stand still on it or go super slow, on the EUC you have to move a little faster before it feels really stable, like 4-5 mph.

The irony is that low one wheel is actually quite a bit more dangerous. Because the foot placement is so low they regularly get caught on curbs or simple uneven ground. But that little one wheel is super fun I will admit

@@TheParentalRevolution hmm, I don't find that the feet being low make the onewheel more dangerous. But I do agree the onewheel is quite a bit more dangerous. To me the danger comes from the fact that the feet are further away from the center of the wheel, plus the feet are higher relative to the center of the wheel. This means if you get off balance just a little you put a lot of torque down which the motor has to fight to keep balanced and it can't, and it's very easy to nose dive the onewheel. Versus with the EUC, the feet are low relative to the center of the wheel and they are in line with the center of the wheel, making it very difficult to put a lot of torque on the wheel that it has to fight to keep you balanced, so much harder to "nose dive" or cause a cut out. It stays upright WAY easier on the EUC. It's now been about 3 weeks that I've been riding the EUC, and I've yet to take a fall. I have almost 200 miles. I had quite a few falls on the onewheel by this point. I've hit some big divets and bumps in the road on the EUC, and that foot positioning really helped save me. I also cruise much faster on the EUC than the onewheel now. Now if you start going 2x as fast on the EUC versus the onewheel, maybe there is a counter to the safety factor...

it's definitely much harder to learn to ride an EUC than a onewheel. So don't worry about it! The biggest thing for me is that you can stand stationary on a onewheel, but not an EUC. It makes it easier to learn what it's like to balance. The EUC you have to get over your fear of it moving to make it easier to balance, but it's hard to get moving when you can't balance. Just keep at it, and once it clicks it becomes second nature, and honestly I find it easier to ride around than a onewheel. Good luck!

Awesome bro! It will probably take slightly longer to get riding, but you'll then advance faster on the EUC than you did the pint. At least that was my experience. LOVE the V8S! Did you get in on the prime day deal?

@@JohnEFly I did it's an awesome deal. Well to be honest how much advancement can you do on the pint? Lol do you have the s version?

@@jasonmelo9379 yes I have the V8S

@@JohnEFly okay I'm going to follow your channel do some vids on it! range testing and all of that

@@jasonmelo9379 for range I get about 20-25 miles. But I weigh 240lbs. That's also averaging near the top end of what the V8S can do. If I rode closer to 11-12mph I'm sure it would go further. Only issue I really have had is that it is pretty easy to overpower. I tried playing with how hard I could break, and I definitely fell on my ass. Generally riding I have no fear of overpowering it though. Enjoy my dude!
