I'm still relatively new to EUC's, but the thing that helped me the most is practice the things you don't like. For the longest time I didn't like mounting and dismounting. But I just sat infront of my house, getting on and off the EUC without going far. Now it's second nature and I'm glad I didn't avoid it.

That is so very true. For the longest time, loose gravel was my Achilles heel. Every time I encountered even the smallest patch, anxiety would set in, and I would freak out and lose control. So I started to ride across gravel every chance I got. Now that I'm more comfortable riding across gravel, I can ride in the street with a lot more confidence and authority.

Dancing on the wheel has made me a PRO. I put my earbuds in and listen to my tunes and I dance/carve while balancing. It really builds up your leg muscles quickly!

For new riders. My biggest tip that it's all in the hips and knees. I find that when teaching beginners, they focus too much on balancing with their upper body as if they were on a tightrope. Focus on twisting with your hips and using your knees to manipulate the direction of the wheel. The moment you notice yourself falling left or right, shift the wheel in the direction you're falling in. You can see if you overcorrected or under-corrected depending on how you fall off the wheel. When you're making the correction for the first time. You really need to ignore the "oh shit" moment as I like to call it. It's okay to scuff up your wheel and let it fall. Go for the correction rather than jumping off the wheel when your danger senses go off. Getting the 1st correction right will give you an immense amount of confidence to keep on going even with all the bruises you get when learning euc! Best of luck to beginners out there. My learning experiences was frustrating but now it's incredibly fun and I'm glad I learned!

Hell yeah bro, everytime I have an oh shit moment it's like my legs just react and I always feel like I just leveled up in some way. Muscle memory is one of the most fascinating things to me.

My favourite tip is to crouch down more when in a position where you're close to losing control such as speed wobbles or going through treacherous terrain. Having bent knees is essential for soaking up bumps, and lowering your centre of gravity can help your balance and regain control when you're about to lose it. It's helped me many times 😊

Definitely but it comes in time. I found the first 200+ miles were just me trying to find the perfect setup of pad positions and pedals and pedal angles. After that it felt like just part of my feet.

@rlsimmons900
@rlsimmons900 3 года назад
As a heavier rider I found using toe pressure like a gas pedal for increasing speed instead of leaning too hard/quick and possibly overpowering the wheel. This also helps keep body centered over wheel and can stay upright and run out of a cutoff vs face planting in middle of a MJ lean.
@jamesordwayultralightpilot
@jamesordwayultralightpilot 2 года назад
Definitely I use this method for climbing hills offroad too because I don't like putting my CG so far in front of the wheel to keep it moving because once she starts spinning you're gonna faceplant into the hillside. LoL

The heel-toe comment is a great tip. As a new rider, I discovered this instinctively, but it is nice to have someone point out the mechanics of it. I also love the idea of getting better and safer with the wheel you have.
@jamesordwayultralightpilot
@jamesordwayultralightpilot 2 года назад
This is so important because there is always a new video spreading hype about a wheel and they make older wheels seem outdated. When in reality a great wheel will always be a great wheel and most of us haven't even unlocked it's full potential yet. Plus new wheels just like everything have kinks to iron out so it's always better to buy the best wheel that came out 2 years ago. LoL

my favorite tip for riders that are looking to get a little more intense on your daily rides: when starting to tackle higher speeds, make sure you have a way to monitor your speed without having to take your eyes off the road. you don't wanna have to pull out your phone at 30mph+. Some people use small bluetooth speakers, but if you have DarknessBot, you can set up a level 3 vibration alarm to go off after a certain speed. Anytime I break 34mph, I'll feel a constant vibration in my pocket and know to not push it much farther. An excellent practice for riding hard, but not cutting out. Stay safe! #ewheels
@Jherrild
@Jherrild 3 года назад
I think my best tip is, the more you carve and play with the wheel, the more engaged you are with the terrain. This is more fun, but it's also more safe- because you're already constantly shifting your weight back and forth, your reactions to small bumps and obstacles are faster. #ewheels

I started my electric rideables journey by hoping on a friends pint. After that I had to have one and thanks to some jimmy chang videos I settled on buying a used Onewheel plus. I later bought a brand new XR and loved it! Only a few months later another friend introduced me to the EUC that he had purchased off a friend for a few hundred dollars that had the same range and speed of my XR... I learned how to ride an EUC on a grass yard with nothing but trial and error over and over again. My tip for someone learning to ride an electric unicycle for the first time is to find a nice flat hard surface area like a parking lot. I believe it was harder to learn on the grass with all the bumps and uneven dips throwing my balance off. The other important thing that helped me was realizing that I had more balance and control if I left a little space between my legs and the pads on the wheel. When learning to ride it for the first time you are going to constantly over correct and turn without trying at low speeds, if you keep your legs and hips centered over the wheel and let the wheel do the learning you can save it much easier. Lastly scraping the foot pedals is fine and you can use the ground to regain balance. DON"T GIVE UP! The best things in life are difficult at first. After riding my friends Kingsong s16 I am hooked and saving up currently for an inmotion V11. I will definitely be turning to ewheels when I can afford to get one, they are the best and I have only heard wonderful things about them. #ewheels

My favorite EUC tip is to watch, learn, and do. Watch all the best EUC veterans on RU-vid, learn something on every video, and go apply it on your next ride (or glide). I have Jimmy to thank for introducing me to this sport, and now my entire family is involved. It started out with seeing a RU-vid ad about the Onewheel, which led to my first Jimmy Chang video. I could identify with Jimmy on many levels, and then I come across his EUC videos. Once I saw the range, speed, and endurance of a EUC, it was game over for me! I knew that EUCs were the way to go and I never looked back. We purchased a King Song 16X for me, an MTen3 for the kids to try (they ended up going with scooters), and a TurboWheel Lightning+ for my wife. I'm waiting on my Inmotion V11 as I type these comments. Can't wait! Do you know what all of these purchases have in common? I purchased them all from ewheels.com. I do not say what I am about to say lightly - EWHEELS.COM has provided THE BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE I have ever experienced. I'm 50, so I've had plenty of experience with good and bad customer service. Jason and the entire team at ewheels go above and beyond, every time. You can tell right away how they all love this sport, the community, their products, and their customers. It shows in every way. Our thanks to Jimmy and ewheels! Glide on! #ewheels

#ewheels My best tip would be on hard braking. I was doing a night ride and I was speeding down a trail and happened to have a man hole that I couldn't see and I leaned back hard but was totally upright. The tip would be squat just a little when you lean back. Almost like you're falling backwards onto a chair

@DerekKwan
@DerekKwan 3 года назад
So I just switched from my Onewheel to pretty much only riding my Inmotion V8F and here are the top tips that helped me in the transition: 1. Ride along a rail (rails are kinder to your hands than chain-link fences) and just keep going back and forth. 2. Don't look down (look at something eye level in the distance that you want to move toward). 3. Don't go too slow (balancing is way too tough early on when you're going too slow). 4. Wheel Control Exercises (U-Stride has a pretty good video detailing some basic wheel control exercises which helped with dismount). 5. Don't start on an MTen3, that tiny little bugger is fun, but so hard to initially learn on. 6. Don't start on a huge wheel, it's tough to control the heavier wheels and you can feel like you're catching a boulder every time you drop it. 7. Get a wheel that comes with a protective cover, so you can keep that on it while you're learning. If it doesn't come with one, buy one. 8. Don't get discouraged, it's much like riding a bike... you'll feel like you're absolutely not getting anywhere, and you'll never figure it out, until one moment it just clicks. 9. When it does "click", continue practicing even if it's just 15 minutes... try to fit in a little practice every day. 10. Never end your day with a crash, a drop or a fail... always wrap up your practice day with some kind of win (always get back on 'the horse' when it bucks you off). Bonus tip 1: When you go back to your old platform (my Onewheel), it's AMAZING how foreign it can feel, even after just a few weeks or month of riding my EUC. Be careful and ease your way back into it... or better yet, don't neglect your Onewheel if you intend to continue riding it... the skills and feel for the Onewheel can dissipate quickly. Bonus tip 2: Bought my wheel from Jason at #Ewheels also! Remember, once you get proficient, you'll very likely crave more speed and power, so think through your initial wheel purchase thoroughly! Now I need to upgrade from my V8F!!

The biggest single tip that helped me out was to stop looking down at the ground a few feet in front of you and start looking ahead at where you want to go. All of a sudden things got easier and confidence built quickly as I realized my EUC will roll over most of the things I was trying so hard to avoid.

I bought a one wheel pint a few years ago which started a revolution among my friends. Eventually got a onewheel XR so my wife and I could ride together. Then a buddy got a Ninebot EUC followed by KingSong 16s. I’ve grown to love EUCs for their smooth speed and lack of range anxiety. Although each wheel is different and still have their sweet spot for what make them fun My tip is the same for all. Repetition! Whether you are brand new and learning how to ride or walking into immediate or advanced tricks and techniques it’s important to repeat things you’re trying so they engrain more quickly. Any time you try something new there’s a bit of exhilaration and adrenaline. If you go off the curb successfully or jump up a curb or ride backwards or whatever it is, then do it again several more times right after rather than just knowing you’ve done it you will then know you can do it over and over. This helps to engrain muscle memory and self-confidence so that you can do it again when you haven’t tried it in a while. Thanks Jimmy Chang. Loved your spirit and videos for years. #ewheels.

@dbrowdy
@dbrowdy 3 года назад
The tip that's helped me the most recently: when learning slow carving (start slow!), I read that you kind of wrap your knee around the other knee. For whatever reason, this motion clicked with me and really help me open my hips up when riding. I realized my hips were way too stiff and all of a sudden I was felt like I was riding a little more like Law with his loosey-goosey style. Riding slowly, like 12mph while practicing carving with hips was hugely helpful for me. #eWheels
@jamesordwayultralightpilot
@jamesordwayultralightpilot 2 года назад
Adding music to your riding just makes you carve everywhere too and since your dancing to the music the motion is created by your subconscious and means you don't even have to think about it as much.
@Nokkturnal79x
@Nokkturnal79x 3 года назад

Actually, my favorite wheel tip is one he gave in the video! The heel and toe technique like basically eliminated my wobbles. When I wobble I push diagonally into my wheel and initiate carving with the heel toe method.. usually makes my wobbles vanish :) also it's super helpful for turning in general! #ewheels
@MyInnerPeace
@MyInnerPeace 3 года назад
Heel toe method really helped me. Pointing my toe on the inner foot of my turns and digging the opposite heel really helps me get through tight turns and loose packed dirt when carving in the street or going off-road. Similar principle to counter steering on a motorcycle. Also thanks to #ewheels for their great customer service; I can't speak enough about what a great resource they are with not only after sales customer care, but being willing to go the extra mile and answer questions about EUC's in general.
@badfish4025
@badfish4025 3 года назад
Don’t have an EUC yet but I feel the best tip I’ve learned applies to all PEVs: Ride your own board. Don’t get so caught up in what more experienced riders are doing and that you can’t do it yet. Ride your own board and within your own skill level and the more advanced stuff will come, in time. Also Law is a badass. He’s the one I bought my XR from at Sevur. Super cool to sit and chat with about EUC and he’s a wealth of knowledge.
@hyperxalloyfpspelinappaimi8447
@hyperxalloyfpspelinappaimi8447 3 года назад
the one tip that has helped me was learning to be able to rock back and forth like a pendulum. I saw it on a youtube video that said it was the best way to improve overall balance. It totally worked, and was able to take deeper carves and feel way more comfortable on the wheel so I can learn to improve in other aspects! #ewheels
@tofuninja5489
@tofuninja5489 3 года назад
Turning INTO a fall or lean. I got that from a kuji rolls video. It absolutely sounds counter intuitive but it really helped me get it in the beginning. Like in that learning phase and you start going the opposite way and you start trying turn but you don't know how and start to fall, lean your body and toes into that fall and you'll recover.

@ionflow1073
@ionflow1073 Год назад
The tip that helped me the most was learning how to use the heel/ toe technique to coordinate my turns better while maintaining stability of the wheel. Because of this, I can now slow down quicker, make much sharper turns, and accelerate out of the turns a lot faster. I definitely agree that life is not all about speed. I think control is a lot more useful especially when riding in crowded areas.
@dragonflyeuc4958

I think that the best tip that I got out of this video is that "More is not always better". As I'm redesigning my power/jump pads and 3D printing them this week. I'll keep that in mind. As for "Wobble". I'll try this carve method. The technique that I currently use I learned from a different video. It's simple and has worked every time. You just straighten your legs and push your hips forward. Works like magic. Cheers!!
@Ambrovious
@Ambrovious 3 года назад
My top tip is to try to relax. When I first started out I was all about locking in and having a death grip on the wheel but once I started relaxing a bit and letting the wheel move side to side, my turning and carving improved dramatically. Ordered my V11 from #ewheels on Jimmys link two days ago...getting excited!
@akeilah18

My favorite tip that makes me a better rider is to learn new skills. A lot of times I think about buying a new euc because of the new features, but there’s nothing better than learning a new skill that’ll stick with you no matter what euc you ride. My new skill I’m learning now is carving. Not at the jumping point just yet.
@caramelzappa
@caramelzappa 3 года назад
My favorite EUC tip is the one about the death wobble. It applies to more than EUC's. Onewheelers and Motorcyclists experience the death wobble too and it's really important to no panic and know how to correct yourself without -overcorrecting- and making it worse. Likewise slow is smooth and smooth is fast comes straight from the motorcycle world and it's the absolute truth!

I just started learning but my best tip so far really helped me free mount which I was having alot of trouble doing. Instead of going straight for trying to mount the second foot, first spend some time simply lifting the your foot up and balancing on the mounted foot. Even if it is for a second or 2. This helped me to be able to keep stable while getting the other foot on the petal and gave me time to adjust it.

Favorite learning tip: cut a large push broom in half and attach beneath the pedals for support while learning to ride. Helpful for the first couple of hours and I’m sure it reduces the rate of abandoning the EUC sport substantially, thereby growing the community faster. Training broom for my training wheel.

Greetings from Calgary, Canada. Loads of good tips here! I have a tip to get over curbs at low speed without needing to jump the EUC: just before you hit the curb send your wheel slightly forward and take a little hop. The slight acceleration should give your wheel enough momentum to roll over the curb and your pedals will meet your feet when the wheel gets on the curb. It’s worked flawlessly each time on my 16x and V8. Thanks Jimmy for your awesome videos! They are entertaining, informative and very well produced!

I don't have an EUC at the moment but have been planning to get one for a while now. I definitely agree with the tips in this video specially the "Safe and Smooth Progress". Before being able to go fast someone should have good technical skills for the EUC. Going faster means also theres higher risk and less chance to recover when something unfortunate happens and I think by having good technical skill, it will help to avoid the unfortunate situation as well as helps recover phase from those situations.

My favorite tip for riding EUC would be to always push your limits SAFELY. Risk assessment is key to staying riding. Expect the unexpected, especially around blind corners. Survey your riding spots for any obstacles before goin nuts. A 2nd tip would be maybe learn to ski a little. The posture and edge switching really helps your euc skills imo.

I believe my favorite tip was the carving. I did not know how to get better control and now I do. Thanks.

OW XR + growler owner here, but definitely interested in the potential of EUC! I didn't realize the importance of heel toe for EUCs. Learning this concept really helped me with my onewheels.

My favorite tip was to jump. That is next on my list to learn how to do and master.

My tip would be to sometimes push yourself a little past your comfort zone to become better at something before that. Obviously if you feel completely petrified and know you wont commit, don't recklessly throw yourself into harms way. But understand that fear is the greatest limiter on these things, and it usually causes many of our accidents. So say you're a little nervous riding on the road or going down a curb. Go offroad and ride down roots on a technical trail. It will be so hard, but at a good comfortable pace, that when you get back to the road or you have to drop down a curb, your comfort will be much higher. Grats on 20k, Jimmy~

Hi Jimmy, Thanks for your continued informative & entertaining EUC videos. I feel that a big part of what's made me a better rider (from when I started back in 2017) has been to always have safety first and to learn from RU-vidrs like yourself and staying informed with the unexperienced challenges ahead. #ewheels has always been there along my journey. Thank you to eWheels as well!

Relax and keep moving. Carve, slalom like a skier, make lots of turns, keep changing speed and breaking, stop and take off a lot. The more you vary the ride the quicker you will develop exuberance and the skills to keep you safe on unfamiliar terrain.

Three weeks ago I got my Mten3. Two weeks of rain ... So I learnt how to ride in my garage on a space of 3x4 meters , with a nice tight carpet to not damage the wheel. Every day I practiced for an hour and was riding backwards after 1 week. And I'm still only riding backwards because I never bothered learning to go forwards. My tip would be to practice going forwards and backwards when you start learning, otherwise you might end only up going backwards, which is really annoying because you can's really see which way you're going.

Jimmy, as a relatively new EUC rider, one of my favorite learning tips (I wish I knew before even starting) I got from your buddy Chooch, was to strapping a tether onto the handle. It saved a few scratches on my starter EUC. I only had to use it for a short period of time. I went in progressions - starting with it and holding on - using it only on getting on - then, finally, not even using it. Keep up the great work, Jimmy!

My favorite tip is the secret to carving. The opposite toe heel combination is not instinctive and a great lesson. Thanks. #ewheels

Best tip for me is pushing with the toe in the direction you're turning and opposite heel. I discovered it randomly making a surprise turn in gravel and actually making it.

Favorite tip is carving to get out of speedwobbles. It works not just for eucs but onewheels too!

My tip is : start to learn indside your own apartment. I have a small apartment and live inside Copenhagen, Denmark. It was scary to start driving in traffic, so I taught myself to start and stop and do very hard turns (2 bedroom apartment). And now after only 4 months I'm riding my Gotway MSP in Copenhagen Traffic and I'm carving in/out between cars. 👍❤️# YouDontNeedSpaceToLearnEUC

#ewheels - The best tip I have for new EUC riders is to use a strap to hang onto while learning to get on and off the EUC. Attach the strap to the EUC handle. The strap helps give you another point of contact for stability and confidence. When you are learning to ride plan on crashing a lot. The strap saves the wheel from hitting the ground and running into your angles. I used a nylon strap with a buckle used for backpacking, it works well because you can adjust the length. I suppose a belt would work too. Good luck learning a new skill!!!

Thanks for this video it's exactly what I needed right now because I'm a brand new rider. I got my first wheel a week ago so I'm not the best person to be giving tips but I would say my biggest tip would be to relax and feel the wheel. It's much harder to learn being tense.

I loved this video. I’m waiting for my first wheel to arrive from backorder, a new 16x. My fav tip, not knowing how to ride yet, except theoretically, is the belief and bravery, and how to carve. I also like the ride with people one.

I don't have a tip that made me a better rider since i have never ridden them and I feel like I am missing out on a lot. But if I had, I would say the more isn't always better one. It is a very humble tip and it applies on everything not just riding EUCs. If would win I would really start focusing on everything I can learn and try to squeeze out as much as possible out of the wheel I would buy! And don't worry, I know safety is important! not only for myself but also to keep the EUC community going!

My tip is to just ride everyday. Even if it's just 1 or 2 miles. The more you're comfortable on the more confidence you will have on it. You don't have to try to be amazing or do tricks right away. Just ride and ride and ride and you'll get there 👍 #ewheels

My favorite tip: Ride the wheel you already have and learn how to do something new with it. I've been riding a 16s for a few months, and I commute to work every day here in Colorado Springs. I've found it's so much fun learning new things with it, I don't need to upgrade anytime soon to enjoy myself. #ewheels

#ewheels my tip outside of standard riding techniques would be ride predictably and respectfully as many people have never seen one before it is important to ride with consideration for others to help make sure they don't hate ewheels and divers also could be unaware of you so you should let them dive and just follow along.

Playing Euc polo here in nyc with Evx Micky and Evwhere Chris have showed me so many new techniques on how to control my Msp. It has played a part riding in traffic and pedestrian jump outs.

my best tip to beginners, who never rode it before, is it's just like a bicycle, it only falls left or right so turn that way and learn to balance like a bike :) my own experience to fix those speed wobbles is just relax and not squeeze the wheel and it 'calms down' :) will sure get a wheel for my sister if i win some cash :)

I'd say when learning the amount of confidence you have going in determines how fast you learn. I've seen people who have a lot of confidence that are learning within 5-10 minutes others it could have taken hours to days maybe weeks even. I'd say have confidence and follow steps in advancing.

My favorite advice I have received so far was to reach out to the community and online forums. So much learning material - from an excel comparison sheet to answers for every question I've had. Learned about it on your Chooch & Chang video! And that $500 would really help in getting my first wheel from #ewheels thank you for the opportunity!

Love it. i didn't notice you had part 2 out! very cool. I love how the community is so active... you see the same people over and over again! #ewheels is a great place to go, that chart of all the wheels alone is a great resource. at any rate - I could watch a whole video on that heel-toe carving method you guys were talking about. that's new to me!

I couldn't wait and I took a chunk of my account to purchase my first euc. I've been commuting on my inline skates for over a year now every day. And after a throughout research I bought the V11 for my first wheel and should be here in a few weeks. Can't wait!!!
