Learn how to ride EUC's (or relearn the basics again!)

Good to see you're back, I wondered what happened to you. I think I might have mentioned that watching you struggle to learn, and then actually learn to ride that 16S gave me the assurance that real actual regular people could teach themselves to ride, that I could actually do this.

You've cost me a TON of money.

And thanks, it's been some of the best money I've spent in quite some time.

@CyberV0LTyou seem to have shortness of breath. Are you ok?

It would help to explain how to turn. Either twist the EUC (yaw steering), mostly for low speeds, or tilt the EUC (tilt steering), which will cause it to turn due to camber effect. Wrong Way made a video on how tires affect the tilt to camber effect response:

3 year old yaw steering:

Girl on an S18 nearly motionless, just leaning and tilting the S18 (Marty Backe style but with turns). Due to 3 inch wide tire, speed, and turning radius, she leans more than she tilts the S18, at mentioned in Wrong Way's video:

Slow speed tilt steering, where rider barely leans, while tilting the EUC a lot (including pedal scrape):

Me on a V8F. With it's skinny 2.125 inch wide tire, lean and tilt are about the same.
