The lip on the bottom of the footpad isn't to stop rocks and dirt spraying onto the top of the footpad. It's to stop rocks and dirt from getting stuck under the footpad.
I took one of those Non Slip Traction Mats for paddle boards or deck flooring, etc.. Carefully cut it to shape. After doing two layers, it's another world. For a less than $30 solution, I highly recommend it! And Yes, the foot fatigue is real. I just got my oneWheel and after a couple days, I can feel it. I also realized I was using my angles a lot to gain or recover balance a lot. I think it's important to remember to engage your upper body when possible. Great video man. Love your energy. Cheers!
Hi Scott, This footpad is perfect for winter riding on roads, its one step closer to full protection against elements, as in winter theres a lot of road salt and this will prevent it from getting under the pad and onto the metals making the board so much easier to clean
Hey Scott, Sorry if you have answered this before but do you "badger" your boards for winter use? Or is this just the regular seals and nothing has been changed. Thanks!
I scrolled through the comments and was surprised to hear that you haven't "badgered" (weather-proofed) your board, considering you ride through wet and snow (which eventually also becomes wet). I've seen a lot of complaints (especially with the XR) about the internal boards getting compromised from the water. Interesting to see you prefer the C&R Air Pad over the TFL Kush. I have the Kush Hi Nug on my Pint and the Kush Wide on my XR. I'm a big fan, and those had gone a long way to helping me combat foot fatigue. Perhaps when C&R comes up with one for the GT I'll pull the trigger for that when it comes out. I definitely like the "debris rail" that will help keep things a little cleaner. It's a nice design element on their part.
I have the Nug on the Pint and not the XR so I couldn't say what the differences are. 5 years going without water proofing my board and ok. Lets hope it stays that way.,
Love those rails. There is so many mods on the XR , rails and foot pads , bumpers and so one. The GT kinda cuts into the aftermarket a little. Imagine with the mods of the XR such as range increases battery packs , think about the GT double range. I imagine the Pint X and the GT mods with take off soon enough. Hope your family is well and friends circle are also well. I can’t wait for this next race.
Can I ask your opinion. If you were a new rider, never been a skater, or boarder, what would you get? Im for sure getting one, but not sure what will work best for me and the area im at. I want to go in the woods, hills and around town. The distance of the GT would fit better since everything is so spread out where I live. But not sure. Thanks
If the C&R AirPad is as comfortable as the Kush Nug Hi that I have on my Pint, I would consider buying it (definitely the black version) for my coming GT! I, like you, have loads of Vans shoes but their Old School models (on my size 46 feet) do not activate my Pint sensors too well which cut out frequently but as you say their skate models (my favourite being the Kyle Walker) work flawlessly as do their MTE-3 winter shoes. I am also about to change my tyre to my C&R treaded tyre that I ordered for last winter here in Sweden but unfortunately it did not get delivered until April when the snow had already completely gone! 😂🙏🏾
sensor pad issues are common on the smaller Pint (and Pint X). Some people have had great success in solving this by placing felt dots or velcro strips on the pads. Most people barely register them when standing on them, but they help concentrate the pressure on the pads.
Did you ever do some distance rides with it I have a cobra or viper rear concave and around 40-50 miles my foot would just start hurting like it was getting stretched out? I went back to my surestance pro a lot less concave less foot fatigue at longer distances. Love the concave to carve though.
Love it Scot! MN represent!!! Nw metro here. Keep up the videos! You inspired me to buy PintX, and GT after having never ridden a OW. Loving my PintX. Curious when you ride in snow do you ever keep fender on?? Is the snow buildup a big deal or not? Any other winter tips?? I see lots of ppl freak out about any moisture or snow, I’ve just made sure it’s dry and in warm garage after riding before I charge and I’ve had zero issues. Ever had a moisture related issue??
One great thing to do with the OW in winter is to get a treaded tire on it. We are dropping a video this Sunday about the differences between the two. Snow build up isn't a big deal. Better to have fender on then to have all that snow build up on your foot pad. I have shot a few videos in the snow and share a lot about hot to ride and what to do for Ow haver ride.
Vans make some pretty cool winter shoes, like the MTE. Insulated and waterproof with a cushy insole, and a lot cooler than Uggs lol. This will be my first winter with my board. Kinda scared of taking it out in wet/snowy stuff in Denver without badgering it and since it's a newer 4212 board. My friend had to commute in the winter for a while with hers and did fine but she's got a 4209.
It's so much fun to ride in the snow. I have rode mine for 5 winters now with no issues. I know that it's a risk of getting wet but so for so good. I have pair of the those vans boots and they are awesome
Just subscribed, really enjoying the content I’ve seen from you and love the energy you give off! The whole family looks like they’re having a blast :)
Good morning Scot!! I was wondering if you knew where I could get an aftermarket charger for my Onewheel Plus. Our one and only charger decided to die this week.
Scot, I’m curious - you said in a video that there is a technique to pushing thru pushback. Would you share that technique? I hear the motor on the XR and the Pint are the same, so TECHNICALLY, the pint should be able to reach the same speed as an XR.
Actually no; two reasons. Winding of an electrical motor determines how torquey or how high speed it is, but additionally, the diameter of the tire would also need to be equal. The limiting factor is total output or RPM, could be either one.
I’ve been watching your channel for a long time and it’s been a while since your kids have been on a video. I was just wondering how your little ones ride? I was trying to teach my 7 year old niece to ride my pint x and the board kept turning off with her tiny feet. Lol
Scot, how are you liking your WTF rails now that you’re running custom. You never did a follow-up video of your thoughts after running custom settings.
Hey Scott, found your channel about two months ago when I was "researching" for a Onewheel. I really enjoy your content, your messages, etc. Thanks for what you bring. I am new to the sport (have admired from afar for a while), I just got my XR about two weeks ago (got the clearance price :) ). I am experiencing foot fatigue. I have the stock footpads on the one wheel (ordered all of other accessories, Fender, Rails, Guards, etc. I am thinking about the Surestance footpads from Future Motion, should I be considering the KUSH or the C&R rails over the Surestance, if so, why? thanks for your content!
Those footpads that are softer are great they do take some of the vibrations out but really your feet will get use to riding. It just takes a couple of weeks. Also make sure you curve while riding that will make sure you are keeping the blood flowing to your feet
I would call more like foot melting off. I have to look down to see my foot isn't melting off thr board. Maybe the Battery adds an element of electronic hallucination for my feet.
I wish I was kidding. Never had foot feels like I do but with the one wheel. It is less with the xr than the pint though? Maybe size of for pads or more stability muscles being used for the small wobbler. I just have the pint the punt last night. Hello XR and soon GT!! May my flabby flabalanches be flabbergasted.
The lip on the bottom of the footpad isn't to stop rocks and dirt spraying onto the top of the footpad. It's to stop rocks and dirt from getting stuck under the footpad.
Ok great to know

Good point about protection against elements.
How does this compare to the Kush Nug Hi?
I don't know I have not rode that on the XR but on the pint I have and I have to say this i a little softer or a ride.
Hey Scott,
Sorry if you have answered this before but do you "badger" your boards for winter use? Or is this just the regular seals and nothing has been changed.
Thanks!
I don't. I feel they are pretty water proof from factory
@@ScotMendenhall crazy, thanks for the response!

they are great for Onewheeling.

I would go with the GT or pick up a XR.
@@ScotMendenhall Awesome!!! Thank you! And Thanks for all the awesome content!!
I love seeing that roost!
Can't decided between the Air Pad or Kush Nug High for my Pint X
If the C&R AirPad is as comfortable as the Kush Nug Hi that I have on my Pint, I would consider buying it (definitely the black version) for my coming GT!

They are awesome to ride
Hey Scott, I love all your content brother, question for you: How did you tilt board with the wtf rails?

The lip on the bottom of the footpad is there to assist with the turbo encabulator.
LET’S GO BABY!!
you got that right
Just subscribed, really enjoying the content I’ve seen from you and love the energy you give off! The whole family looks like they’re having a blast :)
Thank you so much!! We love doing life around here that's for sure.
Which Vans MTE do you have? 1, 2, or 3
I have #2
That groove is to prevent debris from getting in between the footpad and battery case.
Ok cool thanks for sharing. That makes sense.
Good morning Scot!! I was wondering if you knew where I could get an aftermarket charger for my Onewheel Plus. Our one and only charger decided to die this week.
Oh no. Lily said that you found one. sorry for the late response
@@ScotMendenhall, it’s all good. :)
Actually got one of those and it's helped so much so yeah glad to see you made a video on it 🤣
It's a great foot. pad
I use a cheap slip on ankle brace, and it helps with foot fatigue
Oh that's a great idea. thanks for sharing
Helpful! Thank you kindly
You're welcome!
Any excercises that we can do
that is unknown. The best thing you can do is ride that OW. The muscles will come along the more you ride.

We have decided to not share that on a video for the fear of stories of people getting hurt.

Way better. And I should do a follow up video on that.

For the pint ??
Only for the XR right now
@@ScotMendenhall rip

I like how you put it ha

I wear Nike VaporMax shoes and never get foot fatigue. Knee fatigue is my main issue though 🙂
I'll have to try those Nikes. What do you think is causing the knee problem.
@@ScotMendenhall Probably just refusing to break between 3 mile jogs 🙂 That I'm not getting any younger probably lol
Can you do a review of the new craft and ride treaded tire for the pint
Great Idea we did that review and you can fine it in our tire review playlist
vans sk8 hi MTE 2 w/ heated socks
Right there is the magic
the uggs boots eliminate foot fatigue.
That is a true statement and they keep your feet warm
Are they RED UGGs??
Sweet
Aren't you affraid that your Onewheels get to wet while riding in snow/Walter, so that it brakes one day?
No I am not. I have rode my XR for 4 years and have never thought about it or done anything to make it water proof.
A cutaway of the product would be sweet to see.
thanks for the input
Hi
Bro that video in the background definitely distracts.
