Today we take the Onewheel Pint out determined to learn how to climb curbs! Do we succeed, do we fail? If we fail it won't be from a lack of effort! See the progression, or lack there of as a relatively new middle aged Onewheeler attempts to learn to nudge his way up curbs.

Your 2 issues are: (1) You need to try on a slightly larger curb, so you can rock the board up easier...just helps when learning. Curb you were trying here is better for a bonk up. (2) You are not committing. You have the basic technique down, though needs bit more refining. You started out taking your back foot off every time, then started leaving that on longer BUT taking your front foot off. If you had just committed on even 5 attempts here, you would have gotten up once or twice with both feet on. Commit. Kudos to you for sticking with it, man, you can do it!

Thank god it didn’t just come naturally to you, I got a couple successful attempts when I was first learning to ride but it was a while before I came back to it, and now that I’ve been actually trying it I can’t get it… struggling waiting for that first successful attempt to hit, glad you had a strong journey😁🙌

John, you’ve visualized the struggle that I’m currently going through right now. You had me out of my seat cheering and grabbing my stomach laughing because I CAN RELATE TO EVERYTHING IN YOUR VIDEO. I gave up but watching you I’m inspired again to learn it. Eagerly waiting for your next video.

I'm at 1000 miles with my PintX and I haven't really tried to commit to figuring it out like you. You're a badass for showing us your progress and staying with it. I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for the next video. Also.. You never fail, you either win or you learn. It's obvious in this video! I saw progress. Proud of you.

@JohnEFly 2 года назад

Thanks dude! It's definitely scary to commit to go for it, but I'm glad I did. 1000 miles is really impressive, especially when the PintX just came out at the end of October!

Props for sharing this

@KneeDownFPV 2 года назад

Thanks for sharing. This has been my experience so far as well so I feel your pain.

LMAO! Thanks for the entertainment! You got this!

There is a small hop needed but it's not enough to lift you off the board. You need to bounce up when your board tries to bounce backwards. The nose slam will transfer that momentum forward and you go up the curb. Both feet hop but not at the same time. Your front foot hops first which will slam your tail and get your nose up. Then your back foot hops to de-weight the tail and press the nose down. The final step is the hips-- you need to have your hips shifted back before impact and then shift them forward during impact. You'll get this dude!! Keep at it

@Freakofspeed 2 года назад

looks like you were approaching the curb faster than the experts in the videos you showed.

@valiant360420 2 года назад

That was painful to watch… I thought about getting the One Wheel, but instead got an electric longboard. I can’t go up curbs, but I’ve done 220 miles without a bail, and I’m love in’ it. 🤘🏼

@JohnEFly 2 года назад

PEVs come in all sorts of awesome forms! electric longboards are sweet too!

@westbunting4358 2 года назад

This may sound silly but it works. You have to go into these sorts of things knowing you're going to get hurt. It's just part of the learning process. The key is to not get hurt badly. If you can get your head into this space committing is easier making progression faster. It's just pain. You'll heal. Good luck in the future.

@JohnEFly 2 года назад

dude, I definitely agree... but it's still a huge mental block for me. Thanks

@westbunting4358 2 года назад

@@JohnEFly totally understand. Whenever I tried to learn any new tricks or maneuvers personally I like to fall early. It helps set my expectations that I'm going to fall. I've known some people who would start a session by throwing themselves on the ground or deliberately do it a trick poorly to make themselves fall just to get those jitters dealt with. I don't recommend that method but I do recommend getting up and trying again and again and again until you physically cannot. If you need a day's rest take it but try not to go several in a row if you can afford to. Actually now that I'm thinking about it I encourage you to listen to a recent episode of the hawk and wolf podcast. Tony hawk recently broke his leg and that is what that whole podcast is about. You're not alone we all go through this stuff it's all right.

@mihdd 2 года назад

You need a helping "hill/lifter" under your front foot (middle of step) which makes your wheel lift up when you step on front(tip) of your board. Something like the round plastic things under the old-school skateboards or a wooden stripe. This would help allot. Greetings

@ib1wheelin_la197 2 года назад

Nice video John E, only problem I really see you having is you’re letting your momentum take you forward more then up right when you hit the curb. Right as you hit you need to de weight (hop but not hop) lol. Everything else looks great just try getting some of that momentum up rather then forward at curb contact.

@JohnEFly 2 года назад

So would that make it more of a bonking motion? Is it primarily the back leg that deweights, or actually try to deweight both, then push down/forward with the front? Thanks!

@ib1wheelin_la197 2 года назад

Kinda both, too much weight on front won’t let tire come up the curb. That first press on the curb you do is fine but immediately after you gotta de weight so the board has room to climb the curb.

@SumanVisu 7 месяцев назад

Dude great motivational video. It’s been a year now. Post some new curb nudge videos to see the difference.

@JohnEFly 7 месяцев назад

thanks my man, I really appreciate it. Unfortunately I barely ride the onewheel anymore. I ride my King Song S22 EUC about 99.9% of the time. Thing just flies up any curb I want it to. so easy

@SumanVisu 7 месяцев назад

@@JohnEFly I have been wanting to try EUC, do you recommend - King Song S22 EUC ?

@JohnEFly 7 месяцев назад

@@SumanVisu I LOVE my S22. I've been riding it for over a year with over 1100 miles now. I've had great luck with it, and it's extremely versitile for me. So I would definitely recommend it. I know others have had issues, but it's always been good to me.
