    I don't have an EUC yet, your tip about being smooth is great. Motorcycle riders having trouble make their biggest improvements when they work on being smooth more than trying to force that skill or speed they were trying to achieve.

    Jimmy I’m so happy to see you riding a little more aggressively and finding another level of enjoyment of our awesome devices. As an aggressive rider myself, it makes me super pumped when I see others at least trying. Keep it up man 🤙🏽

    Saving slowly for an EUC but look forward to just learning all the physical intricacies. I feel i'll have an easy time learning it but understand the range of things you can use your body for on this type of thing.

    When I learned to ride my Segway PT, my neighbor taught me and pushed me out of my comfort zone. I became really great on it. I wish I could find someone like that in NYC with my EUC. But Jimmy, you’re already a great OW rider. I think you did well here but it’s not surprising.

    3:34 kinda sick burn to those that think they're the best rider in town just because they can buy big wheels and hit big speed numbers when they can't even perform basic technical riding. Lots of folks claim they're amazing because they can go fast, but ask them to ride backwards and they're suddenly dead quiet. Mastery > Speed, there's so much more nuance to EUCs than just speed and range, people.

    • @heymelon
      @heymelon 4 роки тому +1

      For sure! Though if I can only afford 1 wheel I'm definitely not trying to get the most nimble one for tricks over range and speed. But then again it's all about the rider.

    • @lawlaxinaakayourfavorite
      @lawlaxinaakayourfavorite 4 роки тому

      that was my first wheel. try taping some pennies under where the pedal hangers make contact with the pedals. better lock in and itll let you carve a little deeper fo more potential variation in movement

    this reminds of my youth when I was learning to do the bunny hop on bmx. first over painted lines on the parking lot, then over cardboard boxes, then another cardboard box on top. amazing how much height you could get in the end..

    I enjoy watching the 2020 videos, then watching the older videos when Jimmy (and Hsiang) were just beginning to ride/learn EUC’s.
    Plus Jimmy used to be STRICTLY Onewheel when I started watching him.

    I live in Vegas but I didn't start getting into EUC until basically right when the lockdown started. I haven't had a chance to ride with any of the locals out here yet (except Zen briefly). Can't wait for a vaccine so I feel comfortable hanging out with strangers again. lol

    Hi Jimmy, excellent video of course. I like the musical transition from when you were riding the course to when Law was riding the course. For a while there I thought you were going to win and I wish you had played Breaking the Law, for motivational purposes of course. Where can I get that Mario sound for my 16 x? Las Vegas always seems to have good videos coming out of it and it looks like a really great group to ride with!

    Hi Jimmy
    Nice videos. You guys need to be less pc and just say euc is better than onewheel 😉
    On a more practical point. Were you jumping with a 'normal' aliexpress type pad with a big gap above the toes or adapted with more padding underneath?
    If just normal pads, then jumping by pulling up the pads or gripping the sides?
    Only done 150 miles total, no similar background, but would like to handle curbs and rocks better...
    Thanks.

    They should add remote speed regulator for this thing... When you driving slow clicking on one button and when you driving fast clicking on another button. This give much more freedome than regular speed
