  1. Yo! @mclarin89 Lets link up and ride!!! I'll go the distance, 26 miles being my longest ride but ill go until my battery dies and uber home. I haven't been out to snowhill trails yet; that sounds like a lot of fun. HMU. I'm excited to actually do some shit. Riding alongside bikes is not the vibe.

  3. 2-3 hours should do the trick. Practicing everyday is important; helps build the necessary muscles for controls the wheel under your feet and between your legs. Took me 10 minutes to ride around in circles in my tennis court. 2 hours to ride laps around my neighborhood. And 6 weeks to feel confident riding alongside cars in the bike lane. Keep it up and don't give up! Post your process as you progress
  4. I'm in Casselberry (436 & Redbug). Been riding for a couple months now and would love to join a ride. LMK if this page is dead or if yall migrated elsewhere. Thanks
  5. Very interested! if still available, I'll try and convince the my wife to learn. She's nervous ... Edit: Wife read through and wants a Mten3 as well
  6. Thank you all for your suggestions! @Tawpie s*itting position was perfect. That eliminated 95% of my wobbles while braking. The other %5 of wobbles are manageable and easy to ride through. @Dosingpsychedelics The feet stagger was a good suggestion. Funny thing is, after you mentioned it I started looking down at my feet and I noticed that I already naturally had a stagger going. Leveling my feet then made the wobbles worse, so the feet stagger is a great one to implement. @DjPanJan I experimented with altering psi a couple weeks ago; I put it at 32 because I thought, "That's what my car tires take so that should be about good" and it made the wheel un-ridable and unstable LOL. So I went back down to 25 (or 20 I can't remember atm) and I've been chilln there since. Curious, What do you like your psi at??? Seems to be more of a preference than actual number. @winterwheel Your suggestion to apply inward pressure with one foot, not both, was super clutch! Doing so gets rid of ALL of my acceleration wobbles. Today on my way to work I hit top speed multiple times and got the tilt-back(1st time feeling the it - it scared me at first lol) all while not feeling any wobble whatsoever. One foot pressure a great suggestion sir. Might I add, you are a BAMF legend!!!!!! Your -33 degrees video is so sick, I loved it. THANK YOU again for your help and support! I ride with over-elevated confidence now that I got those pesky wobbles squared away. You guys are the best <3
  7. Assume s*itting position?!?! 🤣🤣🤣 LMAO Great tip! Havent tried that yet. Thanks for the advice 🙏👍
  8. Hello All, I've been riding for about 5 weeks now and I'm in love. Best fun of this century!!! I Started out in beginner mode on my S18 for the first week, moved to normal mode for about 3 weeks, and I have now been riding in expert mode for the last few days. I have noticed the speed wobbles getting more and more prevalent as I progress through the modes. Now, in expert mode, it seems I get the wobbles all the time! Especially when I accel/decel fast. What is the best means of avoiding this? more practice?? Of course, squeezing my shins and and legs against the wheel helps a lot but then I don't feel as in control for corners and bumps. All "facts" and opinions are welcome
  9. @360rumors I wanted to reach out and say thank you for sharing your comparison video on the different 360 cameras. Thanks to you I bought a Insta360 oneX2! I'm super excited to start making content with it. The main reason I chose Insta360 was for the video editing software. A lot of people said it was soooo easy to make/edit their footage. Since I have NO experience editing video, this was a HUGE plus for me. Maybe you already made a video on this topic... but a good idea for a video would be to compare the editing software that each camera comes with. (After work) I'm also going to check out your other videos on your channel to see if you have any beginner guides on the insta360 Onex2. Thanks again! Cheers
  10. Well it seems pretty apparent.. A good handful of us came from riding motorcycles ;D 73' Honda 50R, 12' Kawasaki 250, 06' Suzuki GSXR 750
  11. 360rumors seems to know whats up! Entertain me. What is the top-of-the-line 260 camera? cheap budget 360 camera? and good middle-of-the-road 360 camera?
  12. Bought myself a KingSong S18!!!!!! https://www.ewheels.com/product/new-king-song-s18-1110wh-battery-2200w-motor-full-body-suspension/ The plan was to get the latest model.. I thought S22 was for preOrder in July, but it turns out the S20 is on preOrder instead. So S18 was the most recent model from KS I could buy from eWheels. I had 2 options for battery and I went with the 903Wh Molicel P42a. Anyone have any experience with this battery setup? Its advertised to have ">4x more battery power"
  13. Thank you to everyone whom responded and contributed to this post. Every one of your replies was insightful! I'm pullin the trigger and getting me a fresh new EUC this week
  14. Thank you litewave, Esash, and mrelwood for your replies and opinions to my inquiry. You all make v good points. For further discussion on the topic, I am curious to know.. What initial wheel did yall use to learn on??? A great wheel is expensive! But money isnt my main concern. Perhaps, a beater for learning/crashing and also buy the nice shiny new euc to keep me motivated to learn Bacz if I buy the KS S20, another 2-300 bucks for a cheap ninebot wouldn't really make much of a difference on the total spent $. On the other hand, that extra $ spent on a ninebot is basically the same as buying 300$ crash bumpers for the S20....Thinking outloud now. Still a little indecisive.
