Skiing style ride

[Esbu]

Anyone tried skiing style ride ? 

 

[Blunzn]

all the time

[Cloud]

Same here, especially while dancing to the music coming thru the wheel

I also like to do this, feels very much like carving.

Same here, I like to do it but when aware no bikers trying to overtake me are behind.

We are doing summer version of this

I almost always do it, keeps things from getting boring and hones your balance and core a little bit, especially if you get some crazy angles going.

You get exponentially more interest from bystanders too, as it reinforces the idea of 'skiing on tarmac' and just looks cooler. Not that I'm condoning narcissism

Should have warning before video, of seasickness...???

I love doing this but as above you need to be conscious of push bikes coming along behind you. Your wheel sure beeps a lot.

Great video, what are you doing, raising and lowering foot to foot?  Carving esses?  Because that has given me the idea to try that.  By the way, that is a beautiful park, those trees are huge.  Wish there was something that nice here.

If you´re faster than 20km/h you only need to tilt your body to the sides and take care about curving - it should be smooth.

I felt like pendulum oscilating around my bellybutton

Same here, do it almost every day. Much more fun and keeps those core muscles in motion)

Yes it is amusing .. I do it a bit as my low power generic EUC reaches only poor speed so it sometimes tends to vibrate when changing inclinations

Yes. Such fun! I hate when my NB1 forces me to slow down just when the thrill gets going.

[Esbu]

for this ride "as close as possible to skiing" is good to have speed around 20km/h or more and ride on decline road
