My first EUC the road to ...failure or sucsess ?


Recommended Posts

Had my first go on it :facepalm: se the learning curve all talks off.... 


My challenge i Discoverd instant :blink1: is to mount a euc ...first on it i got «sum controll» like Bambi on ice had ... but to Get on it i need to figure out more off. Se one need to lean a euc against one dominant leg but at what angel do one «jump» on one with the other leg?

I feel i need sum grip on the casing as its one slipper thing vs the legs. Got the Ninebot pads on its way n i got yesterday from Amazon sum baby safe Edge  foam i can Apply

Yes mounting (and getting off) is difficult because of the shape turning inward. Try adding some more thickness at the upper sidewall that can rest against your leg, like the official pads. Protections for when it falls is good too, nice you got the baby foam.

Gorgeous wheel :) loved mine.

Well one thing i learned im glad i didnt go for a exspensive first wheel .... :lol: pat on the sholder..
The learning curve is Steep on this i se more n more had a good to day to start with giving up a moment of leg pain of all the dings into the leggs ... to add more padding to «soften» the inpacts n Get on it again...

It gets a few Death spinns on the floor  :lol: now n then.

It made a massive diffrence on the roll feel n handling feel... i might try to lower it by 0.5 psi as it slight knife edged feel to it but so much more fun. Than saturday session.

looks like you're coming right along! I also found the euc to be unlike every other wheeled activity. Hell, its even different than a regular unicycle. So, would you agree that an euc is something the masses are capable of safely learning and using for transport? I'm not one to believe it, as i think it takes a 'special' kind of nut and requires determination and balance. The good news is, once you get over the first learning curve, you will find that you dont hardly ever drop the wheel and it no longer makes you sore on simple rides. Looking good bro!

Yes i think all can learn it , but one cant exspect to jump on to one n thats it.:P It takes sum time to master but thats person to person how long one needs. Starting to grow on me.

I dont know what happend earlyer. :popcorn: i had this comfortable foot position... Music on the ears... i feelt exstream relaxed.

And i started to «Get» it n started to ride :blink1: after that i been so consistant rides. The balance n small twist on the wheel to keep balance. It was BOOM!!! It snapped in place ...

I can now go back m forth in the gym with no worry.... Big progress 

Yess Yess n YESS :w00t2:

So one charge n 15 km of wobbling n climging on the wall it snapped in place.
