Picot Floyd Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 It has been so great to learn from this forum. I got my wheel 18 days ago, and haven't been able to leave it alone since. the first week was 10 minutes at a time (my very first time I stepped on it I bruised the inside of my starting shin! ) I hadn't put on my shin guards, and super whammo, it still hurts 2 weeks later. I watched some videos today and think I will start working on going backwards and doing tighter turns (ninebot has a great youtube channel with short tutorials https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIpc9E-h4WMW2RsAzUk7pgw ) rowing along with one foot on the wheel and one on the ground. ten feet and stop ten feet and stop. after the first week I used it for my daily commute. 1/2 mile to the bus, then one mile from the bus to the office. I love the feeling of riding. I can't wait to get better at it. slow speed, loops, figure eights, backwards, I want to do it all.
MvM Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Welcome to the forum. I think you are a very typical newbee here (no pun intended). I would dare to say that most users experience the same once they got their EU and started using it. An EU is simply a lot of FUN besides being practical at the same time. It took me two days to get the hang of it and then took it outside. In the first 10 days I travelled about 100 km in total, using almost every excuse I could think of to take it outside :) So, enjoy your EU and have fun with it.
