Viewers, when you look and feel this confident while seated, the EUC will feel like a different machine. That's an effective way to explain the sitting positions and of course, i use both. Here is a technique i use when seated riding. I use my your arms as counter weights. If you use your arms as a counter weight you will have to lean less to accelerate and brake. Simple, hold your arms out in front of you without leaning. Now do it while leaning. See? I feel i can accelerate faster than standing this way. It feels way more stable than leaning way out over the wheel. Also, using this method allows me to brake deep into turn and accelerate harder out of turns much earlier. Why, because im steering with my torso while using the position of my arms to slow or speed up. Imagine your arms are behind you going into the turn and as you transition out of the turn they slowly swing them back to the front to gently accelerate out of the turn. Very effective and smooth once you get it. But, like you said, for emergency or hard braking, coming out of the seat is required.

Wow, new to channel: this is so well done. I have >2500mi under belt, but have been very slow to even try to learn any advanced riding skills like backwards or seated, jumps etc. Your compelling presentation of a lot of subtlety in a short space inspires me to try this. Like wobbles remain the hardest fear for me of going anywhere near my wheels' top speeds. Yet you say seated eliminates such speed wobbles, at precisely the high speeds where aerodynamics are most important.

If your tyre is unbalanced then it can and does lead to wobbles, to fix that there should be a lot of videos and it'll be quite annoying. Even so, it'll still be ridable though, but requires a bit different approach. Instead of standing feet side-by-side, if you have one foot more back and the other a bit further, almost a boxing stance, then you can ride quite wobbly and unbalanced wheels.

I like your view on seated riding. I found it easier to start from a standstill because that is what I learned first. However, your video helps with the practice of getting to speed while standing and then taking a seat. As you explained the wheel is more stable at a higher speed, therefore less work on the body. Like riding a heavy motorcycle, once moving it tends to stabilize with more speed.

1:08 - if you think about it, it's because you have one center of gravity instead of two. Hence, no wobbles, as no balance between two centers is needed (between the feet). The ass on the wheel makes all the difference.

Good video, I just learned to ride seated. I had tried it first at high speeds, it seemed easy, but when I tried it slower I fell twice. I took some time off then when I got back to it I decided I would master seated. I practiced sitting down and standing up a bunch and it finally clicked after about maybe :30. I haven't tried riding very fast seated, but practicing lots of turning and carving helps. I have the wide ShermS original stock aftermarket pad and seat setup and they are jutting into the inside of my knee a bit. So I am more of a hybrid splits & wide no. 2 stance. I feel I can stand quickly though and that seems to be what matters. Unless I have been sitting too long. I find really concentrating on applying pressure with my balls of my feet instead of my knees to carve helps me feel somewhat more in control. I also use the handle, pushing down on it to go and pulling back on it to stop, and the back handle as well sometimes.

Excellent video. About "don't start seated", ymmv, but that is actually how I learned to ride seated: starting from a stopped position. I was riding a RS19-HS for 13 months, at the time I could ride quite confident in all situations, on- and off-road, but I was not able to sit on it, then I got a Master Pro, it was difficult to mount on that much heavier wheel, but as the wheel is quite tall, I found out it was easier to sit on it, then start from the seated position and stand up after it got to some speed. Nowadays I can ride the Master Pro "pro level", same as the RS two years ago, including standing, seated, starting from sitting, or switching from seated to standing "on the fly", but I have still some fear every time when I want to switch from standing to seating on the Master Pro. l cannot do that with the RS yet - I tried, but gave up after falling few times - that wheel is too low for my old knees to sit on it (I kept both wheels, I have a standard Begode seat on the RS, quite low, nothing fancy). With the Master Pro, I can switch from standing to seating, but I am not really confident doing it, and usually prefer not to do it "on the fly". I kind of getting goosebumps every time I try, and a sentiment of victory every time I succeed. That's after about two years of riding that Master Pro. No joke. On the other direction, if I am for example at a traffic light and there are a lot of motorcycles and scooters around me (living in Thailand, here they are a lot and drive like crazy, two people die every hour in motorcycle accidents - official statistics), then I prefer to start seated, and stand up after 20 or 50 meters or more, when I put some distance between me and the traffic partners around.

@eslachance
@eslachance 6 месяцев назад
Consider looking at the PowerKnobz rather than torque pads. The specific reason is that powerknobz don't block your legs when you sit down - you don't need to spread your legs in order to be seated, and can just keep your knees snug on the sides. This does give you a bit more control in some cases, but also compounds the aerodynamic advantage of being seated. Best way to prevent "the splits"! It also does keep your feet fully locked in but letting you lean while seated, without losing any advantage from your pad setup.
@WheelGoodTime
@WheelGoodTime 6 месяцев назад
They are an interesting design, I'd like to give them a shot to see how well they work. It does concern me that I wouldn't be able to extract as much torque from them as "regular" pads. Maybe my concerns are unfounded, I dunno. 🙂
@eslachance
@eslachance 6 месяцев назад
@@WheelGoodTime It takes just a little bit of time getting used to - the general #1 advantage with the PowerKnobz is that you don't push on the plastic for the torque : you lean your entire body forward ("knees over toes") and the mass shifting forward causes the torque. Think about it this way: it's fully possible to brake on an EUC without having brake pads: all you need to do is "sit down" as backwards as you can, right? I've done this myself, as long as your feet are locked in and don't slide, you can brake more easily without pads than with them. The same concept applies to going forward - if you kneel down and shift forward, the weight distribution causes torque that's superior to just pushing on pads. I'd even go as far as saying acceleration pads actually *prevent* some amount of torque from happening. They're a security blanket, a crutch, not a feature.
@WheelGoodTime
@WheelGoodTime 6 месяцев назад
I assume you'd have to be SUPER locked into the powerknobz in order to safely lean over your wheel in order to get proper torque on it. Is that true? The concept intrigues me, but I'm unwilling to blow $120+ USD on a set of pads that I may only use once 🙂 I hope to give them a try someday because it is an interesting concept.
@eslachance
@eslachance 6 месяцев назад
@@WheelGoodTime Actually, I've ridden mine much looser (like, after moving it, using a different wheel, or lending it to someone) and it's fine. If you needed to be locked in to be safe, torque pads wouldn't work either. The only time you need to be really locked in is during offroad, but other than that, it's not actually that strict. I've also ridden around with *only* the front powerknob and nothing in the back, no brake pad, and that works too!

I have to disagree with learning while going 20 mph. Riding seated changes the point of balance as well as how the wheel behaves when stopping or starting. That's not something you want to "figure out" when going 20+. My advice, learn from a stop then once you're comfortable riding seated, you can learn how to transition between standing and sitting at speed.

Why not just make a EUC with an adjustable seat post ( maybe a suspension dropper like on my MTB) and a real true and tested UC seat? Maybe not so big, fast and expensive but super super stable with adjustable battery AH's . Seems more and more these things are evolving as a sit down machines like the original manual UC's. To each their own but sitting down all the time for cruising sense makes since to me and I like it better on these things. I prefer the slower side stance standing ride style on Onewheels.

In my case, while learning, the rule #2 was not true, I wobbled, couldn't adequately turn trying switching from standing to sitting. But when I tried starting sitting from a standstill it magically worked the first time and I was immediately able to ride and turn stably. In my case when transitioning from standing to sitting I ended up in a wonky sitting position, but when starting from seated position you can freely adjust and find a comfortable position. Completely disagree with point #4 and #5. When you are learning you absolutely should not lock in your feet. Spiked pedals? Yes! Everything else, absolutely not. When you are learning you need to be able to quickly disengage and jump off the wheel, by locking yourself in you expose yourself to very unpleasant injuries. Also, in seated riding, it's harder (imho) to brake than to accelerate and you advise people to adjust pedals for easier acceleration? Good luck doing an emergency stop. That's what I think about "learning", if you already now how to ride seated all these points make sense

I'm honestly shocked that you learned by not having your feet locked in 😲 when moving fast riding seated, you will hopefully not jump off the wheel quickly as that will cause more injuries, but I can see what you mean if you are doing that starting from a standstill. Having your foot locked in might not be what you want when you just need to get your foot out to stop a fall at 5 mph.

hmm.... I disagree with a lot of things you have said. I disagree with rule #2. It depends on individual. I learned seated ride from standstill, because I was having a hard time slowing down while going fast seated and that was a scary feeling. You would really need to lean back while seated and that's difficult to do at first especially if you are already going fast. Yes, speed is your friend when practicing seated ride just like when we learned how to ride standing up. Yes, you also need to practice transition while moving, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't start from standstill. It's really up to the individual. If you can slow down without a problem while seated, go right ahead and practice seated riding while moving fast. I also disagree with rule #3. You do not need a handle. It helps, but not because of the reason you listed. If you are sitting way forward and feeling like you are falling off, and you need a handle to stay on, you are not in a correct position and probably need to check your wheel angle (will get back to this on rule #5). If you practice seated riding long enough, you will eventually understand that most control comes from your feet and hip. Handle helps, but definitely not necessary. Also disagree with rule #4. You want your pads to be placed in a way so that they won't interfere with you standing up or sitting down. If your feet are locked in, you will have to change your feet position every time you are sitting down or standing up. The way you can compromise is "lock" your toes, but keep your heels free. It gives you enough control with locked toes and give you enough free room to stand and sit without changing your feet. This also helps immensely on carving. If your wheel is not one of those tallest wheels, you will have a really hard time sitting or standing back up with your feet locked in. Disagree with rule #5, you do not have to lower wheel angle. This is why you need a handle to stay on your wheel and without it, you feel like you are going to fall off and faceplant.

If there's one thing I've seen after posting this video, it is that there are many, many ways to learn to ride seated. Those "rules" are not requirements, just guidelines to help someone get the learning process accelerated and if you want, none of those rules can be followed and you can successfully learn to ride seated. However I still stand by those pieces of advice, and if they don't work for you, then it's all good. You can piecemeal it any way you want as long as the end result is to finish with your butt on the wheel 🙂

@@WheelGoodTime Yes, many ways to learn is the point. Say that and stop right there. No need to get defensive and let your ego speaking on your behalf.

At my age, I think it's safe to say I would kill myself if I tried learning how to ride one.

Nonsense! 🙂 If you can stand and ride a bike, you can learn to ride an EUC. Usually it takes a few hours of effort to get your balance and learn to ride. There are many old folks riding, this is a mostly 20-50 year old activity but there is no age limit to mobility. 🙂

I just turned 71 and got a v12 for my birthday. Have 70 miles on it, a lot of parking lots and about 15 miles on roads. Never too old to learn to ride. Just be sure to have all the gear

It's such an incredible feeling once you gain control (riding an EUC). start on a light, low-speed wheel. It is better to risk death than to not live. If you are saying you are too old, you obviously are not. Once you are too old, you won't have any interest in even talking about it. Besides, the danger in getting older is weak hips and balance. This improves both.

Did you register and get a license plate for this??? Because you are riding illegally...

That depends on the state/country you are living in. Each state has different laws concerning the use of EUCs on public roads. Currently it is not possible in North Carolina to register/insure for liability/plate an EUC and it remains in a legal gray area. But there are no statutes that specifically disallow EUCs/PEVs on the road. This is delifferent from state to state though. Sadly, some countries make it 100% illegal to ride in the street with traffic, such as in the UK. Other countries in Europe specifically make it legal though. Go figure. 🤷

Maybe because euc riders go faster than class 3 ebikes ... Why are euc snobs??? Just because you have the speed doesn't mean you have a right to speed...
