I just started on Onewheel yesterday. I can't believe what a difference foot placement has made. I noticed a marked improvement in stability and maneuvering the instant I let my rear toes and front heal hang by just an inch or 2. Excellent video!

Jake - BIG THANKS! Your last footing tip about rear toes off and front heel off was just what this total newbie needed. I finally crossed the yard multiple times! I gained so much stability and finally a commanding feel for the board tilt with this tip. Also a great help to know what to do with my size 13's on those pads. Thanks again, and happy trails... P.S. I'm also one of those older guys (50+) trying something new. Feeling that board turn side to side so gracefully is just amazing.

Naturally I started with a wider stance because I'm used to snowboarding. I tried the narrower stance and it gave me a lot more control. I find a narrow standard stance is best for everyday riding and spinning, but if I'm jumping off ledges and stuff, I go wide. This is the first video I found confirming that. Good stuff, keep it up my man!

This was a game changer for me! I'm only a few weeks into my OneWheel and I've been riding every single day. This narrow slalom stance angle combined with the toe hanging over the back and heel over the front has made me a much more confident rider. In addition to the superior handing and stability, I feel really light on the board. Going up and down curbs became much easier and my shitty left knee appreciates that. Thank you!

I like this stance a ton. I've been having a hard time with my raptor legs.. I've been toe walker my whole life, barefoot I can walk all day and never touch my heel down ever. So when I ride with flat shoes like Van's, I keep getting pad engagement issues. With running shoes with a bit of heel, it goes away. This stance let's me stand much more naturally and not force my heels down awkwardly like I've been doing. This feels much safer and more natural for me. Thanks!

This was great! I’ve been having a lot of heel pain lately and wondering if it’s due to riding. I can’t wait to give the heel way off the front a try and see how that goes. And you blew my mind with the obvious physics of a narrow stance vs wide. My immediate stance was wide for more balance.

I do feel like I want to try out some of these techniques consciously though to improve my riding style. One video I would love to see you do is something regarding concave footpads. You talk a lot about physics and physiology in your videos, so I would be curious about your take on adding a concave rear footpad to your movement on the board.
