That’s amazing progress for your first day on an EUC. Usually they say it takes a few days to do basic riding in public.
Hey thanks, man! I guess I'm a quick learner I guess🤠, it really wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Gotta get a bigger wheel soon! Thanks for stopping by.
Such bs. When I got on for the first time I was a natural. My friends still don’t believe it was my first time riding when I got on. I was going down full flights of stairs with ease in the first day.
I am 58 years old. I need to feel young and keep moving. I ordered my 1st wheel, a V8F off Ebay. I hope I'll be somewhat ok rider quickly. Wish me luck, ill need it
Your a natural. Good job. Took me a week along with a few bad falls . One fall took me out for a week.
I thought it was weird that I didn't fall that much 🤷♂️. Oh well, everyone learns differently, at least you've got your big fall out of the way so you know that you need elbow/knee pads!
Thank you, Ginger, for this most useful and encouraging "how to start" video.
New rider here. Thank you so much for this. I'm heading to a parking lot tomorrow with my V8F. I also have a V11, but that's for later. =)
Great video, very entertaining! Thanks for making it.
Dope as man, I’ll have to try out a lower power unit my first time round when I bite the bullet too.
Although, I’d probably end up updating knowing me so I think diving in hard then limiting it while I learn would probably be a better idea.
Mate you bloody crushed it like a beast 🍺😎🤟☝️🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙 ya killed it out there, thanks for giving us newbs some inspiration, (especially in the freakin turning) cheers bro.
Nice !!! Ginger on wheel ;)
Great. Gotta scrap the channel name now lol
Wow inspiring . I just got the emove cruiser recently and loving it. But the euc have me curious. I think i may get this someday as my first euc. Thanks! :)
It's definitely fun! Takes some time to learn though.
Wow you really got it fast! Definetely faster than me :D
Everyone's learning curve is probably different, but maybe it's a sign of good things to come?!
@@GingerOnWheels yeah...I think so! Def good things too come! Just watch out for gravel/sand on paths, carpets, bigger holes might throw you off and always be sure that you have enough space between the end of a footplate and an obstacle (also important when off road and turning) because once you hit something with a footplate it's nearly impossible to not fall off. ;) and you're set!
Wow this is new i thought you said you were afraid of those things but i m into them too and i think they re cool, a small advice from me keep your knees bended a bit all the time this helps also with the riding but also if you fall your legs are already bended so it s gonna be harder to break a leg this saved me my leg from being broken to just dislocated that s what the doc said
That's very good advice thanks. I can use all the tips I can get at this stage. Sucks about your leg though ☹️
Wow really fast progress!
wow... you can actually see the progress. Nice video
Thanks! It really isn't too hard to pickup once you get the hang of it. They are really fun too, I'm addicted for sure.
Your a great electric unicycle rider ginger dude 👍👍
I never had the balance for a skate board as a kid and i don't know if i would have the balance for a electric unicycle. Im 32 years old with mild autism and i feel the most comfortable and at ease on my 2 electric scooters =) i want to buy a electric mini bike or a electric motorcycle but i haven't decided on which ones to get.

LOVE THESE CHANNELS!!!
Thanks! Glad you rank me with the best. Now I just need the subscriber count to back it up 😅
@@GingerOnWheels Ok, i see if i can find your videos.
Electrek?
Not bad, not bad.
The important thing is to enjoy it.
Very good!
One day, geez that's pretty good.
Good info on riding the euc. I have not seen anyone of the pros catch on that fast.......
There are pros?!
you did surprisingly well on that, just be careful you don't overlean it, down the road id look into a 84v or 100v gotway msx. you can cruise at 30mph+ and your legs will get conditioned with time.
Looking into it now. Gotta get a bigger one. I faceplanted off this one already. Too slow!
Good job.
Thanks!
Bro. You are amazing you got it in just one day. Huehue. Meanwhile, I'm still struggling riding my v8f.
You'll get it! Everyone learns at their own pace.
killing it!
Ha! Thanks man. You ever tried one?
I knew you’re one of us the moment you said ‘you went for a five minute ride’ 😁 it took me three days to master personally, an hour or two every day, but I’ve seen people picking it up in 10 minutes! I certainly didn’t hear speed beeps on my first day either 🙃
Hey everyone learns at their own pace! It's all just tons of fun no matter how fast you learn. 😊
@@GingerOnWheels it was a bit of a pain at first ;) now I’m starting to forget how to walk...
This would be a good “final mile” for someone who can’t carry a scooter on public transportation. I’m wondering if boots with more ankle support would help, but yeah without being able to adjust your feet throughout the ride, I bet they are really sore and this would have to be more for short trips or just for fun. Definitely probably get a workout on muscles you didn’t know existed. This old man will stick to 2 wheels for now. Thanks for the intro to this and I agree used might be the way to learn on one of these.
I very much agree. Perfect last mile soluaton for most people. You just need to commit a few hours to learning and then you're set!
I'm 56 and use this one for trips up 15 km and back. My feet and legs hurt for the first few weeks but as you get stronger and able to relax and move your fee while traveling that becomes a much smaller problem. Worst case just get off and walk every 20 minutes or so.
You learned that thing pretty quickly. This video was a couple of months ago, so you must be really good by now right? I watch the guys here in New York City ride those things with expert precision. It's impressive to watch. You be safe out there 👍🏽
I think I'm pretty okay now with unicycles. I pulled off some stunts in my V8 unicycle video last week. Check it out!
so all in one day right man
I'm thinking about getting one because of you guys ( you and wrong way). What as a scooter rider you think about the safety of euc compared to escooter?
Great but about the head turn. We do go so if your crashing try not to look at the ground or other obstacles. Feel the glide. Ps. Im upgrading to this or the F any time now. Ps. You said "these things are easy to get used too. I find young people have no problem, us senior citizens have natural fear of physical dama/recovery and deteriorating balance. Well I've been riding a year with a long learning curve my balance is better and the safety gear works, i don't want to shatter. I watched cause a v8 will likely be my next wheel and seeing how beatup yours is i like the endurance. I think i might miss speakers.
I'm not sure how big your wheel is now. But after 5 or 6 rides on it I'm ready for something bigger. It's a great wheel to learn on and practice balancing and turning at low speed. But it's not stable past 15mph or so. Takes a lot of work to keep it straight. I'm tall though so it might just be me. 6'2". There is also an ankle pad accessory that you can buy for this wheel that I don't have on there so maybe that could help. But. I rode a bigger 1500watt wheel and it was sooo much more comfortable and easy to use.
You give me hope! I am waiting for my first wheel and it seems that most people are taking a long time to get to beginner, you were off and running really quick. I Onewheel and for sure the key is to relax, same with skiing, snowboarding... when you are tight you cant absorb mistakes or bumps and you get thrown! Enjoy!
Did better than me. I made the mistake of riding in a bumpy grass field though. I ended up having the EUC pedal bite me above my hightop boots and just below my shin guards. Got me very hard and my ankle is swollen and sore still a couple days later. I will have to try again on a parking lot. Good job though.
Oh yeah, all part of the learning curve. High top boots help for Achilles bites, but your shins and legs will be a swollen bruised up mess if you learn like most. I swear my shin bones still have ridges and bumps that weren't there before ...
Nice! I can def see you're hooked!
It's possible. I definitely need a bigger faster wheel now.
@@GingerOnWheels 😄GW MSX ;)
I was looking at that thing. Looks nice. Would you say thatd be a good wheel that I could take off-road and abuse a little bit? I'm ready to get my wheel dirty. 😜🤘 I need to check out some more of your EUC content. I basically bought this thing blind not knowing anything about EUC's or even knowing the specs. I just knew it was cheap and I wanted to learn.
@@GingerOnWheels yeah it's a beast off road. Really nice :) feel free to browse around! I started with V10, InMotion are great wheels for the beginning, GotWay is the Performance king :)
This is probably a stupid question but do you think having 1100 miles on my ninebot s plus will help me pick up riding an euc faster?
how to control the speed?
I heard the beeps how fast were u going?
What's the range between charges 🤪
You're taking it down stairs in your first day? Lol
I'm thinking about buying this wheel. Would you recommend it for a beginner? Or is another wheel better?
I would highly recommend it. The 16s that I tried wasn't as comfortable and anything smaller than this v8 is just too small imo. You'll outgrow it too quickly.
Was fun to be 'with you' on your first learning day. Great location and great weather there friend!
I just had my first one with the V8F. You seemed to be getting the turned faster and better than I do 🙂
In regards to pain: What hurts me the most is the calves on my inner legs... Where I am leaning against the wheel.
I'm about 2 years into EUC riding and my calves are like rocks now. Don't give up, once you work through the pain it becomes even more amazing.
Would you reccomend me buying a v8 first to learn to ride or just get a nikola 100v to start?
I'd buy a v8, it's a great wheel to learn on or for short trips. I own 2 other unicycles and I still use my v8 for taking out the trash and getting the mail and stuff. Just try to find a used one and if you ever find yourself not using it then you can also sell it used and get close to all your money back.
Day 1 and already carving. Nice. is this the V8 or V8F?
The v8. I got it used. I wish I'd bought something a little bigger, turns out I learn fast. But I still use my v8 for short store runs and to take out the trash 🙂
Which lense are you talking about so I have to be careful with my v10 I m still not able to ride it smh 😅
Sorry, I was talking about a lense?
Yes
My 5th day and I can't make a small turn like you did in the 1st ten seconds.
I have a friend who didn't get the hang of it for two weeks! Don't give up!
You’re a very fast learner
Ya, it wasnt nearly as bad as I was suspecting. If I can learn it, anyone can.
It took me 3 days too learn, I feel cheated on. :)
Man I was looking at getting a scooter but now I want an EUC cause of this video
Nothing wrong with both!
Ginger On Wheels which would you say is better for commuting?
@@gyuck given the prices of each, euc is better performance/price wise. But scooters are easy to use and versatile
2 hours on an EUC.. OK let's take it off road, haha typical GOW.. You picked that up quick, but I think I'll just watch from the safety of my office chair.
Definitely a good choice. I rode this wheel too fast today and took a tumble. :/
How much did you pay for this wheel?
$450 used. I wasn't sure if I'd like unicycling.
RIP Robin Williams
😥
Are you a Microsoft Employee?
are you switching over?
I can't like both?!
@@GingerOnWheels I'm considering trying it myself!....soon
that was your first day? are you sure?
Second day really, like I said in the video I had a short go on it the night earlier before the rain came. I picked it up more naturally I assume because I've got experience with snowboarding/skiing/mtb downhill/ scooters / skating ect.
Haha nice..How Tall are you?
6'2". 195ish pounds. I went for a ride today and rode the wheel past it's limits. Currently looking for an upgrade. 😅
😀
There must be something I'm doing wrong , something has to click ! I have tried for realistically about 45 minutes , but I have yet to actually go further then 5 feet. lol HELP lmao
Learning curve is different for everyone. Key is to not give up.
@@GingerOnWheels Went out today and used a fence as a training method , and went back and forth , finally had it to where I could go 20 - 30 feet by myself . I'm having some trouble steering right as well ! I beat up my new V8F some, so sad to get pedals scratched up!
oh btw I love how the pedals are just the right height to slam into the ball of my ankle bone as it guillotines my foot!
Definitely this is NOT a first day. He did basic practice before just not showing it! It would be good if he shared the beginning journey
I literally rode for maybe 5 minutes before this video. Just a bunch of hopping on and off the pedals.
@@GingerOnWheels wow, then that is a rare case. just learning to get on & off & basic balancing can take hours. congrats & great job. i have already spent 2 hours & still cannot go in a straight line for more than 50 meters.. haha
@@salqubeq5203 everyone learns at their own pace. I know people who had to spend weeks learning. I also met a guy outside a restaurant who wanted to try it, he hopped right on and started riding with zero practice. 🤷🏼
Вджлинк если бы все пошло нормально
Really nice tricks, what is your experience with euc 1-foot control? Basing on this czcams.com/video/XZQsEJ88Dj4/video.html it seems you've skipped learning how to start/stop riding with 1 foot or you haven't seen these pre-ride exercises to learn or it is not so important anyway?
