Newbie trail-riding with the OneWheel XR
2Trust the board. That is today's biggest lesson. Also Stay bendy. Keeping your knees bent gives better stability and it also gives faster reaction to absorbing shock. Overall stay bent and Trust the board. This is what learning looks like, so pardon if I'm not getting air time.
Custom Grip Tape. Took Baba Yaga out for some off road time. I've spent far too much time on the Greenways. The Stock Vega tire was so limiting. After the Hoosier T2 upgrade, my world of OneWheel expanded.
When I started filming today, I actually went back to the car, dropped the camera off and went back to the trails. I was shaky and unsteady. After 30 minutes and some warming up I went back for the camera. The OneWheel is like an instant mood lifter. You're seeing both parts of this. After getting comfortable I was navigating roots and got some speed downhill as shown on camera. I love the OneWheel and really looking forward to Future motion working out the bugs with the GT. until then I am sticking to my XR despite it's lacking of hill climbing power. Even the Pint riders we roll with are pretty great. It's a big E-family.
