paul's a treasure to the community
Thank you so much! -Paul

Indeed, he is!
Amen to that! I don't know where my riding technique would be without Paul and the entire crew of ESG
If there ever was the perfect person for this job
If you spend more then 2k on a scooter/have one that goes above 30~ I STRONGLY suggest takeing a beginners motorcycle course. So many of the principles are transferable for like 200~ dollars. It might not exactly save your life but it could help you become a better rider in general. A lot of it is common sense but there are many tips and tricks I was able to apply to my scooting
Excellent advice! For anyone in the US: just google "motorcycle safety foundation". It's a non-profit that holds classes all over the country. They even provide the motorcycles! -Paul
@Electric Scooter Guide if you have your motorcycle permit you can even get your motorcycle license, provided you pass the test. The license might not be required in your state to ride your scooter but it certainly might help if you ever get stopped by some ignorant cops. Especially if you're rideing a hyper scooter and going above 40-50.
Scoot scoot
In texas we don't need license for scooter 😂
This guy
Large potholes are my biggest concern, especially at night. They can totally throw you off balance if you don’t see them. Great video ⭐️
Thanks so much for watching and commenting. -Paul
Yup. Looking ahead is your best friend. I'm also messing with my lights for exactly this reason: the difference between a 2w bike light and 10-20w led's is massive and they're not even that expensive. I wish manufacturers provided a 12v (or higher) hookup near the handlebars, because many factory lights are hilariously underpowerd at the speeds many of these scooters can achieve.
@@b127_1 thanks for the info on the headlight. I will look for one with 10-20w.
Totally agree
I find it more like skiing!
Feel the radius of the turn and I keep feet side bye side
Stay clear of parked cars whenever possible , not just for people opening doors , for the random jaywalkers who will come out from between them.
Good one! It's so true about random people stepping out in front of you! -Paul
I remember one time, I was going downhill with my VSETT 10+, trying to control the breaking so I would not speed up out of control. For some reason, in a given spot I felt the rear tire skeeding out of control, so it was unavoidable I was gonna fall.
I remembered one of the few advices I had back when I decided to get me an eScooter: if you're about to crash, jump out of the scooter. So I did. I jumped out of the scooter like on this guide but since I was still riding downhill, I had to run and keep my ballance for about 150 meters. it was scary but I left there without a single scratch. The scooter got really minor cosmetic scratches but needed some adjustment on the handlebar.
So, yeah, mind your stance and be prepared to ditch your scooter if you have to. I basically dodged serious bruising that day.
Nice to hear you came out of it ok! Well done! -Paul
It feels a little dangerous to jump off a scooter in speeds over running speed feels like twisted or broken feet is about to happen. I am thinking if you have full motorcycle gear could be to jump off and roll on the ground like they do in bike racing or how parkour guys dampen their falls. Idk I am just guessing.
@@sebulbathxif u are going faster than u can run u gotta try to jump as soon u hit the ground to give yourself more time to slow down then try to start running when u hit the ground again. Works up to about 25-28 mph anything past that and your s.o.l.
Really wish I had read this sooner, skidded on black ice going 22MPH around a bend and was dragged across the road and thankfully didn't break anything alongside my scooter having a few minor scratches and the headlight mount needing to be bent back into place, but ended up having inflammatory tissue in my right hand and wasn't wearing a helmet etc. as well so stupidly lucky with the way it turned out, but I probably could've avoided all of the injuries if I did that, I'll keep it in mind, thanks for that
You ran downhill for 150 metres? 150 metres and you couldnt stop?
That was a very comprehensive video on good riding techniques. Nice job presenting too, Paul!
Glad you liked it! Stay Safe. -Vosk
this was a great video and I will definitely be practicing some of these tips. I just got my first of many PEV/escooter. Thank you for the tips and now I cant wait to start riding today or this weekend depending on when I get outta work.
Thank you! Have a great ride! -Paul
Good job Paul. Good advice always goes far. Ride safe, everyone.
Thanks so much! -Paul
Great info, top quality video all around, photography, presentation and sound. Well done Paul.
Thank you so much! I'll pass your compliments along to the team! -Paul
I love scooters, they are such a unique form of travel, deceptively tricky to master.
Thanks! This has benefited me. I am a new scooter rider.
Paul and ESG team (where is Chuck?missing him aswell) are the most serious channel with great information, good attitude towards scooters, professional Audio and Video capture with enjoyable storytelling and editing. Really appreciate you guys and always look for the next video
Thank you so much! Chuck is well, and working on other projects these days. We hope to get him to come by for a cameo though. -Paul
Thank you, thank you! Fantastic helpful tips.
I recently started riding an electric scooter for general commute and I naturally started to impliment some of these after just a couple trips like the wide stance, steering with the feet and shifting down and back to break without much thought. Great tips because it does feel really nice. I'll try using both breaks I haven't used the back break much. I did have an instance where I had to "let go". My first time riding there was a rail road that kind of went up the street at an angle and not just straight across and soon as I saw it I worried about getting stuck in it with my small wheels so i ran it out beside the scooter and caught myself then continued riding on the other side. From then on I also started looking farther ahead of the road.
Very insightful! Thanks for sharing. -Vosk
Great video and tips!
Looking ahead and steering with the feet has made the biggest difference for me. I try to only hold the handlebar as a support and try to use my legs for most of the balance and steering. Also looking far ahead gives me more stability in higher speeds +30mph. I mean if I go in that speed and I look at front tyre for wobble I get wobble instantly but at the same speed looking far ahead I have no wobble and it feels stable. IDK it might sound weird but I think many wobble situations might be due to the rider than the scooter.
Very cool! Glad you enjoyed it. -Vosk
It's helpful to understand the Do's and Don'ts for new e-scooter riders. Also, I knew I recognized the surroundings in this video having traveled along I-880 so many years along with parts of Golden Gate Fields soccer fields along I-80. Thanks for being LOCAL!
fantastic video! thanks!
Great video with excellent e-scooter riding tips!
Thanks.
Thanks so much Scott! -Paul
The editing of this video is simply awesome! Kudos.
And the tips are lifesaving!
Thank you.

Excellent Excellent production and advice! 💯
Great tip about running it off. Got my first scooter 2 weeks ago the other day I flipped over the bars and fractured my cheek and sinus wall LOL 2nd time riding. Wiped out dozens on boards and bikes, this one takes the cake!!
Great advice, thanks 😊

thanks paul this going to help a lot
Thanks for watching and commenting. Let me know if you try the steering technique! -Paul
Thank you Pauly! What a great video with great info and tips!
Glad it was helpful!
The recent parade of storms has left lots of potholes on the roads and branches/twigs in bike lanes in and around San Mateo County, CA which has made regular rides as tricky as off-road e-scooting. I'm going to continue practicing these tips and techniques with my Nanrobot LS7+ until I master them all. Thanks for the great video
Thanks for sharing! -Stay Safe out there. -Vosk
Had my scooter for about 1 month now. The ride like a skateboard tip is exactly what i do. Funny to hear it from someone else. Sure does help. 👍🏼
Thanks! It really transformed how I ride! -Paul
Another super thoughtful, helpful video, thank you!
Glad it was helpful! -Vosk
This video is great for new riders! I'm personally experienced with all these tips but new riders will appreciate this.
Awesome! Thanks for stopping by. -Vosk
Congratulations for the tips!! great for everyone !! Thank you!
Thank you so much! Glad you found it useful! -Paul
There are some really great tips in there!
Thanks so much for this, I'm a new rider and just found your channel. I was hoping to find a good vid on riding technique's and this is perfect!
Subscribed and liked! 😉
Glad it was helpful! -Vosk
there was another time, riding downhill again, this time with a Dualtron Thunder2, there were wet sections of the road, and the hill was REALLY steep, so it was very easy to pick up speed. There were MANY spots where I thought "... this is it!, I'm going down!..." But kept my stance, tried to control the braking and weight distribution and all that I knew could help me stay riding and not falling.
In the end, I happened to make it out unscathed from that hill, did not fall, but vowed to NEVER do that again, at least NOT on that hill. That was stupidly scary.
So, yeah, learn how to stop, mind your stance, how to steer and then some. You never know when you're gonna need to apply everything at once so you don't fall and hurt yourself.
Thank so much for sharing your experiences! -Paul
👍 good stuff!
Thank you for your advices
Happy to help! Thank you so much for watching and commenting! -Paul
Love these tips. I'm still a bit scared to turn sharp corners at 10mph+ but I'm working on it. Definitely, definitely wear safety gears. If anything, wear a full face helmet. Even being on scooters that only get to 15mph, a fall can be fatal or at least hurt very badly. Even at a jogging pace of 8mph, would you want to suddenly tip over and fall to the ground? Probably not, so wear a full face helmet. I see so many people forego this around here just because they're only going down the street or a block away.
Very cool! Thanks for stopping by. -Vosk
Thank you when I try to explain how to ride a scooter, all my friends think I'm making it up or talking BS. This video will definitely provide what I was talking about. Thank you and great idea for a video 👍💪👊
Thank you so much! I hope your friends believe you now
It is same for me they cry my leg hurts-i answer because your legs has no expierence and is weak after 1 week 10km ride is like nothing if you do it corect you get used to it...and get stronger yourself...
All tips worked perfekt
Love the skateboarding tip Paul, makes total sense! I'll give it a go this arvo at my local empty Bus carpark when all workers have cleared out and gone home.
That’s awesome! Thanks for watching. -Paul
@Electric Scooter Guide Love the skateboard stance technique, it has made my riding experience so much MORE FUN! It is much easier to turn using my feet, although it can be dangerous turning at too sharp an angle, particularly at higher than normal speed. Luckily, I haven't learnt this the hard way with a heavy fall.
great advice
well made video
Nice video. I practice sliding out the back end since I only have a front brake on a light scooter, both the toe and heel sides. It's saved me twice now, most recently yesterday. Not bailing out immediately, shortest stopping distance, and not going over the bar. Probably a more advanced tip, but 20+ years of snowboarding definitely helps.
Thank You Paul ❤👌
Thank you for watching and commenting! -Paul
Wow good explaining ,help me a lot
Glad to hear that! -Vosk
I just brought a scooter and use it to go to and from work, it’s about a 4km route each way, this is my 3rd time riding an eScooter in my life and I love it!!
These tips will come in handy, do you have any guides around riding at slow very speeds around pedestrians, obstacles, tight bends etc?
That’s awesome! Glad you enjoying. -Vosk
just got a Dualtron Mini Special and found your channel while looking for more e scooter content, you're amazing!
Awesome! Thank you!
Great tips!!! this should be basic training for ALL riders!!!
Thank you so much! This was one of my favorite videos to make! -Paul
Thank you, I might use that steering technique!
If you do, let me know how it goes! -Paul
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide ok I tried it with my Fighter Supreme and it complements the regular steering very well, thank you for the advice!
Hey you and the team are excellent. Thank you for all the updates! (I slept through the physics parts sorry :) ) What do you think about the JOYOR S10-S? I just picked one up and hopeful it's got the right mix of value and specs. Thanks as always!
We haven't had a chance to test any JOYOR scooters, but hope to get a chance to at some point. -Paul
Very helpful!!!
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome video, appreciate your style!
Thank you so much! This is might be my favorite video I’ve ever made! -Paul
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide im borrowing an electric scooter from a friend, a seal up, couldn’t figure why the front brake was so rough and i come from a big background of downhill skateboarding, you sorted me out big time, prof. 😎
Great video! You look great on the bike!
Thank you so much! I still remember the day that photo was taken. Best riding day of my life! I was completely relaxed taking the exahust pipes all the way down until the scraped the ground. -Paul
Thanks for this Paul. I'm currently doing my research before purchasing my first ever e scooter (I'm stuck between the Vsett 10+ and the Mantis King GT) and look forward to trying all of these tips eventually. Good looking out!!
Thanks for watching and commenting! Those are both great scooters! The Vsett is a little quicker, but I'm very impressed with the adjustable hydraulic suspension and sinewave controllers of the Mantis King GT! -Paul
You can;t go wrong with any of those. I have the VSETT 10+ and it's amazing.
I had the same debate! I think either choice is good. Cant go wrong with either one.
I went with the mantis king because of the black/red look as well as the adjustable suspension and included led setup. I love it! Got mine last week
Go with the veset 10+ that scooter beat my dualtron Victor 😅
@@jordanfgfox7237 The Vsett10 is such a beast 1st scooter....not for the faint hearted lol
Thank you so much!
You da man!!!
You're welcome! Thanks
I have been riding for a couple years and I have a 5600W 60mph scooter so I wear a full helmet, knee and elbow pads, gloves that have impact resistance, a thick leather jacket and I thick padded shirt I repurposed from its original paintball purpose. I have several thousand miles on my scooters but not 2 weeks into owning my brand new powerful scooter I was riding on a trail and suddenly came upon a corner out covered in the trees and it was wet and covered in leaves. I had never had any kind of trouble riding yet but as I entered that corner the scooter slipped slightly and it was just enough that my body kept going straight and I went down straight on my chest with my arms extended out. It was slow motion and I felt like I was going through a checklist in my head and I was wearing all my safety gear. The impact was hard but it did not hurt me in any way shape or form in all the places I was wearing pads. This was a wonderful feeling.
However, I was wearing a backpack that had my tools in it and it did not have a chest strap. The left side shoulder strap had slipped down and was covering my upper arm and I just swung it back up on my back whenever I stopped. But when I payed my scooter down my arms extended out in front of me to break my fall and as I hit I immediately felt my shoulder separate because that strap. It was so incredibly painful and I just couldn’t even put my arm in front of me at all to grab the handlebars. But I was in the middle of nowhere and I had to ride out of there. During the course of getting back I ended up redislocating my shoulder over and over and over because the ligaments and tendons were stretched out and the slightest movement was causing my arm to dislocate again. Each time it did I would be frozen in pain in the position I was in and had to sit and wait for minutes for it to finally pop back into the socket.
After over an hour of this I made it to a bus stop that I was familiar with and I waited for the bus to go over to the emergency room. My scooter weighs over 100 pounds and I had a heavy backpack as well and as the bus pulled up I tried quickly to tell the driver I had injured my arm and I was hoping he could put the ramp down so I wouldn’t have to pick the whole scooter up and carry it over the gap between the curb and the bus. His response was, “THE RAMP!?!” My head dropped and so I grabbed my scooter and backpack with my good arm and I did my very best to keep my other arm just locked against my side, but it had been popping out freely for almost a couple hours at that point. I got my scooter onto the bus and it was completely full and everyone was staring at me and just then my shoulder went out of socket and I was frozen once again just holding my stuff. The bus driver acted bothered and he hit the gas and threw me all over the bus with my shoulder still out and no place to even sit. Not a soul got up to help me out and I sat paralyzed. Nobody knew what was probably wrong with me, bu after about two minutes my shoulder slid back into place and screamed out in pain. My shoulder popping back in was so noticeable that everyone on the bus gasped and didn’t even realize it was out until they saw it slide back in. Every bump made me wince and I finally made it to the emergency room. It turned out that I had completely broken the shoulder side of my shoulder socket in half and half was free floating. It was emergency surgery to fix it. I learned some very valuable lessons that day.

Excellent Video!
Thank you so much! I've been wanting to make this one for a while now and feel so lucky we had a chance to do it! -Paul
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide i feel like most people do not know how to properly ride an escooter or even brake properly, that's why your video is a very good one that i can recommend to anyone thats new to escooter or to anyone that wants to perfect their riding style 👍
Hey, great tips! I think trying to keep fit, strength, fexibility and mobility, help us react much better, with less panic, when stopping/falling.
Practice running, among others.
Not everyone may be able to do this however, so try to avoid risky traffic conditions,
Great point! When I was racing motorcycles, I would make myself go running 3 times a week. I hated running, but it was really good for my lap times! -Paul
Also taking sidewalks when raods are not looking as confident
i really wish i knew how to do the ditch part before i rode mine. i got the breaking down. but once i was at 30mph and i accidently wobbled the handle i crash leaving me with bruises and a broken knee. but 11/10 would ride my eScooter again the adrenaline is just that good. thanks for the video Very informative!
Excellent advice - presenter’s varied background gives this significant credibility. Great video
Much appreciated! -Vosk
Amazing video
Glad you think so! -Vosk
I love that you mentioned steering with your feet. I see so many people posting about problems with the stem, and I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that they aren't doing this. The handlebars are largely unnecessary with practice (though I don't condone riding without using the handlebars. I'm just demonstrating a point.) They are just there to give you a display and something to control throttle. You can completely steer your scooter with your feet, and doing so is not only more comfortable as you mentioned, but it also prevents damage to the stem. Due to the length of the stem you have a lot of leverage, and if you're putting all of your body weight on that as you turn / accelerate / decelerate you are going to wear it out faster.
Very cool! Thanks for stopping by. -Vosk
Stem steering works for me when I’m forced to ride close to a curb. Pulling the stem, not turning the stem. It’s kind of a way to force control if you feel that you’re getting sucked in.
fab video dude
Glad you enjoyed! -Vosk
Great video as always seems like to many it's second nature but there's things in this video for any level of rider.
Glad you enjoyed it!
thanks for this video. please review the Segway P100S, thanks!
We will try our best!
That leaning technique does that work with 11inch tires on the LS7+72, I also set my damper pretty high where it takes force to turn it, any adive on where the damper should be set too? Thanks...
I ride on the pavement a lot due to road regs in Qld Australia. Had to ditch scooter when a car suddenly pulled out of a driveway from a house with a high fence. Will put these tips into action at my nearby supermarket carpark when it is empty.
Thank you.
You're welcome!
Thanks
Thank you Teddy! -Paul
Agree on everything. Been riding like that almost since day one. The only thing that I haven't mastered yet is jumping on a light scooter. The ones with suspension - no problem, just need to compress the suspension prior to jumping.
I try to use my legs when touching ground after jump my body also moves by bending fron or back leg according to wich wheel touch ground first... It decrases scooter impact greatly... I always see peoples open jaws when i drive over bumps on higher speeds.(they think im going to die... 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Well I'm glad to see that all these tips came to me naturally lol.
I do have to practice the footwork part to turn, because although I also found that out on my own (never rode a scooter or skateboard before) too, I just did very recently so didn't practice it much
Happy to help!
My first scooter ever was the turboant 7x max and it lasted me 5 months. And i had 2 batteries. I gave it alot of use And now i got an Evercross EV08e Scooter. Its smaller and its fun 😊
I just got myself a niu Kqi1 pro for a steal off Facebook marketplace. Figured it's a good starting scooter🤷♂️ I love it. I'm definitely going to be saving up for one of them top of the line scooters no doubt now. I live in a small town and work about 20 mins away walking. The scooter turned that into like 7 minutes lol I'm not aloud to drive so this is such a game changer. If anyone has any tips on any accessories for e scooters please lmk. Im trying ti learn the best brands for certain stuff and would live to not waste money on crappy parts lmao thank you in advance 👍🤝
I'm getting my first e-scooter Wednesday the Yume y11 and I will take all of this in the deep respect
From Paulo to Paul thanks a lot. :)
Thanks so much!
Good movie my friend..greats from Netherlands
Thanks so much! We appreciate the kind words. -Vosk
Great advice from someone who clearly knows what he is talking about! Have fun but be careful!
Thanks so much for the kind words!
Thx! Any vids on how to change/fix a flat?
We are working on that!
thx!! I just got one with solid tires (prob just give it to my pre-teen), but I really want scooter with 10” air filled tires. Just need confidence on fixing flats…
Outstanding video. I have the 2022 Apollo Ghost (dual 1000w). Any tips on getting a smooth throttle with duel motors. I find it jerky.
You'll get used to it over time. Stance and balance help a bit because it prevents you from accidentally pulling even more when the scooter lurches forward and you lurch backward.
The other thing that seems to help me (and I don't know why) is keeping my trigger finger more flat (less curled around the trigger) and sort of using friction to pull it back.
I also like adjusting the throttle physically as close to the brake lever as possible.
If you want to go further, there's always running single motor or non-turbo, but that's no fun. You can fine-tune using p-settings if all else fails. I n the past, I used to just max all p-settings out, but now sometimes I back initial acceleration off a notch. I think P12 is the setting for initial acceleration on the Ghost (double check in the manual though). And I think 5 is highest initial acceleration and 1 is lowest. -Paul
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide Thanks so much. Appreciate the reply
@@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide And the jump from Segway Ninebot ES4 to the Ghost is enormous and loving it
bruh i wish i knew the jump one i was riding today on my kqi2pro on the sidewalk cuz there were a ton of cars and then there was this large ledge and my brakes couldn't stop in time so I just wen over it and then I jumped off and I heard a pop sound cuz my tire popped. Also do you tink the varla pegasus of vx2 pro vmax is better(and is the extra money for the pegasus worth the suspension and extra speeed)
I actually love the LOWA❤
Not only leaves but gravel, with the iron-Air there is no chance to get snagged on a pothole( Like most other air filled tires) but with other types( Foam or PU) there is little hope for those
Always great to get the scoop on the iron-Air, Ash! One of these days we may surprise you and mention it in a video! -Paul
Have you ever tried the laotie es19? I love mine, but would still like a review.
We haven't yet! Hopefully they will reach out to us. -Paul
I love listening to this man talk ⬆
All good information. ESG seems to be the Fortnine of E-scooters.
High praise! We love Fortnine! Thank you so much! -Paul
I’m undecided about the stance. I feel that front ft toes forward gives you better accuracy. Especially on city sidewalks, weaving between obstacles. I’d liken it to throwing. The ball goes best where your lead toes are pointing. It also makes it easier to bail at traffic lights, still hold the handle bars when you have to hit a cross walk button. However, checking your 6 is more difficult in this stance.
Fair enough!
will you guys be doing a review on the ninebot f65??
We will have some new Segway scooters coming our way soon, but I don't know exactly which ones. Stay tuned! -Paul
This video is first ever i have seen that tells truth about scooter driving❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks very much
Number 1 tip for beginners: Left foot on front left side, right foot on back right side. This will ensure that you can properly turn in corners. Make sure that both feet are not on right or left side. Having one foot on the front and one at the back will allow you to tilt backward when braking and tilt forward when accelerating.
Because center of gravity is so high above the wheels you're basically surfing on wheels. You don't need to drive around potholes but keep your body steady and turn the wheel of the scooter to evade the pothole and then turn it back quickly to move the scooder back under you.
what if your right foot is yoir promenent foot?
@@Mockingartjayexactly lol
Umm im right dominate
Beautiful Detailed Information ℹ️. Thank You 🙏 so much for all that you guys do @ ESG. By far the Best Electric ⚡️ Scooter 🛴 Channel on CZcams. In my Humble Opinion. 🍻 👊 🇺🇸. Stay Safe & Free. We bought two ✌️ Kaabo Wolf 🐺 King 👑 GT Pro’s because of this channel. One ☝️ for me & one ☝️ for my wife. We both are so thankful & happy with them. Sooo much Fun!
Wow, that's awesome to hear! Thank you so much for telling us your story! Awesome scooters you have there! -Paul
@3:55 I wonder about by this explanation of weaving as lining up the sum of normal and centripetal force vectors with your center of gravity. When scooting, wouldn't the normal force always act perpendicular to the ground while the centripetal force points towards the center of the circle the scooter is turning around. In that sense, we're not really lining up force vectors as you've described, as they are necessarily not aligned often during our weave. It seems more accurate to say we're maintaining a balance where the overall torque (rotational force) on the system is zero, preventing us from eating shit. Sure, normal force, centripetal force, but also inertia, gravity, etc. -- just a thought. Thanks for the tips.
Thank you for the video. Another tip i would like to add is: ride you scooter just like your riding a skateboard then if you find road with some many nicks and holes then try to keep your weight on the leg that is on the back side of the platform so in case the front wheel get caught so hard on some hole then it wont throw you forwards to a sure fall

The timeline on this video I just noticed was 6 months ago, so I hope you still check this for new comments.
I've been seriously considering getting a commuting scooter to replace my daily travel from my large SUV to something more budget friendly. I'm apprehensive however because I live up towards a small mountainside with a slightly considerable incline of perhaps 30 degrees or around there, and just risking traveling upwards on it with the two turns I need to make cause me to overthink on the purchase a little. My mind is set on an Inmotion RS (for the 50 miles or so of daily commute) scooter if the power could offset the incline, but are there any suggestions you might have for uphill travel on scooters?
