HOW TO RIDE AN EUC IN UNDER 2 MINUTES - Easiest Way To Teach Your friends 

I totally agree. The dominant leg has to be on the EUC, that's the one that keeps it tight, able to maneuver it with ease. The other one stays on the ground when stopped.

My right leg is my dominant leg, but I simply cannot start with my right foot on the pedal.

Not for everyone…. My dominant leg is the right one and I prefer to kick off with it on a skateboard… the only thing that bothers me with the euc is that it is heavy so I am tempted to use my right leg to control it but at the same time I am more comfortable to push while having my left leg on the pedal…. at the end of the day beginners should just experiment and choose what suits them best.

Huh? Most skaters use the rear foot to stabilize and push (which is their dominant leg/foot). If your stance on a skateboard is "regular" the left foot is forward and right foot is rear. Most push off with right unless they are pushing "mongo" which is not typical/considered by some a bad habit.

Skated for decades and would kick with my dominant. Meens my non-dominant is on the board first.

I agree

Thanks David!

Thanks!

Yeah I find it much easier for my dominant leg to be the one that I'm hopping up from when mounting.

Hahahaha 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥they are so fun!!!

How did it go, did you enjoy it I’m thinking of getting one to

@@rashad4333 I’m definitely the exception but with his advice on how to start, I was up in 30 min riding. I LOVE it. I got the V12. It didn’t replace my OW but it is definitely a different super fun ride. No regrets🤙🏽

@@Obi_Wanwheel not entirely exception(altho some ppl are just better at physical things), just a good method. probably trains the muscle memory way faster with a controlled method like this vs random trial and error

@@0xsergy 😂 You literally said “not an exemption” and then said “although an exemption” but with different wording. Thank you? 🤷🏽‍♂️

Yeah I thought about this too. I learned to push with my dominate leg on a skateboard because it’s stronger. So whatever feels more comfortable I guess! Thanks chris.

@@CarterMasonYT I started learning with my dominant leg on first, but now that I’m comfortable I typically mount goofy let’s call it haha.

Not everyone skateboards the same either.

So I just got my v11 today, applied the standing technique, head up with the wheel around me left and right. This really gives you a feel and weight of the machine. Got a bit dizzy but that's all part of the game. Overcame the fear of falling and leaning into it and the more you lean the more speed you get and the more stable it becomes. 20 minutes later riding fully independent. Can't wait to see what I'm like after a month. Once they become sub conscious for where you put your feet, and your body learns the balance. This video is excellent and really made a difference.

@@jc84com , you have the right description here..being a motorcycle rider, you know that your body makes the balance by the brain connection everybody has. Technically: there is a moment, when counter steering sets in..like with a kickstep, bicycle and motorbikes. This happens later when the size of the object is bigger.( as you know by now, EUC's have this point at walking speed) Looking forward and not down to the wheel, makes your brain switch from what it reasons by sight first (as we think usually:-) to the automatic balancing by the brain later. The sooner we give room for the brain to react, the quicker we get balanced out. = blindfolded and a friend to walk next to you, you might learn it in two minutes= What do you think Julian?

@@ThomiX0.0 yeah I will test this out with a friend. I have also noticed. Hip.knee.ankle strength plays a major factor. So many people are not fit and this makes balancing extremely difficult and a much longer learning curve for the body to build the muscles. plus they become tired much faster.

@@jc84com , isn't that just becouse in the first days, you kind of fight the unbalance?

@@ThomiX0.0 once you overcome the fear of falling. The machine will always pick you up. Have trust.

Dominant leg is the one on the EUC.

I agree with Yves Cindy. This is the first and only time I have heard it suggested that the dominant leg should be on the ground. I have alway ridden with my dominant leg on the wheel and non dominant on the ground when mounting or dismounting.. Ultimately, do what feels most natural to you.

That’s awesome! The shoes I wear are soft up top but have decently hard soles. (Softer than boots but harder than running shoes)

I need someone to sneak up behind me & push me to figure it out lol. I'm right handed & assuming my right leg is the dominant one.

Yea…. It then again I’m very left handed and my dominant leg is my right one!!

Hmm I’m not sure. I guess whatever feels more natural. My friend and I found it way easier to push off the ground with our dominate leg

Its similar to.....Which foot do you kick with when skate boarding ? Different strokes for different folks.

Success?

@@AndreiPetunin Absolutely 👍. Lots of riding time. Just working on mounting and dis-mounting. A little tricky.

@@Bunkysworkshop I held on to anything I could the first few weeks when stopping - just not to get off. Totally dreaded it. It’s as natural as walking now. :-)

@@AndreiPetunin That’s what I’m doing now. I will make it but for now it’s like trying to walk for the first time.

@@Bunkysworkshop Wow, need to try this. I tried with dominant leg on the wheel first and kept falling once I got on with both legs...can't seem to be able to stabilize on the wheel for more than a second T__T

Hahaha probably not the easiest way to start!!

You’ll get it!!💪💪

Try squatting down when you want to stop, so you but is pointed back, that will slow you down very fast, then you can just step off.

Thanks!
