Test Riding the Segway MiniPro Personal Transporter!

- Norm and Simone test the new Segway MiniPro electric personal transporter. Here's how it works, our first impressions from riding, and our confusion of what to do with our hands while standing on it. We're not calling it a hoverboard, so it's up to you to come up with a better name for this kind of device!

Ok. Simone is now my favourite Tested host ever. She is freaking awesome!
have u seen her channel.... if u had she would have been your favorite host from the start
thats what norm is for
You should wear a Victorian hoop dress (that ends ± 5 cm from the ground) while riding on that thing. It will look like your floating like a ghost.
Until it catches in the wheels that are like 15cm high and you faceplant lol
You obviously don`t no what a HOOP-dress is. Because the bird cage like structure that you where under the dress will protect you from that.
I'd pay good money to see Norm wear a Victorian hoop dress riding this mini Segway!
Fun fact: In the European courts of the 18th century it was fashoinable for women to walk with small steps in their big dresses as to immitate floating. They would have loved this.
Or the outfit the “Penguin” wore in The Blues Brothers.
Norm says in jest "I'M not going to touch you" Simone reply's "Please don't" and the look on her face!!!!! sorry norm no workplace romance here!!!!!!
Same face on Simones China sitcom episode.
Norm is about to get married. So I wouldn't worry too much.
Good point - I hope he and ASIMO will be very happy!!!
timestamp?
Um yeah right at the start like 12-15 seconds in!!!!!
no worries doc
This video feels like a classic tested video. Testing and goofing around with tech. I approve.
Shhh if they realise that they will put it behind the paywall.
+minihjalte I'm a premium member so I don't care.
I think Tested has move beyond the amateurish-looking productions and it makes them look as if they are abandoning quality production values.
quality in that sense in videos is not an objective metric
Yea... try that sort of broad quality allowance in say... the next food you eat...
Poor Norm didn't wanna be like "grab my hand" instead he just puts out his arm like he's saluting the Segway 😂
You should make Simone an official member of Tested.
she is...she moved to the states for tested
ken ezzell Oh, that's great to hear!
She's even in the intro sequence :)
*The only
I have to watch their podcast thing more often now... she was in the last few episodes
I think you guys are focusing on the beautiful lady a little to much let's focus a bit on the great looking Norm as well!
Time stamp for the beautiful lady please? Because I only saw Norm and Simone in the video.
5:30 in the background. LOL
alright I'm not trying to be wierd or offensive but Simone is like the 100% full package
geoff3610 cool toys bring the best of people.
Dem hips
Dat Azzz
Dem brainz
Straylight4299 dat azzz dem brainz
looks weird :)
What you see is saddlebags
So... It's just like every other "hoverboard" with a part that is ready to Popsicle you if something goes wrong?
I got my Segway Jan.'17 and I LOVE it ! I'm what you call "old school" so it wasn't easy for me to learn to trust it...... But I love to be adventurous and I test my skill whenever possible !! I take it down rocky hills and trails... so much fun !
Simone is such a great add to the team. The lightheartedness was definitely needed in these videos. Plus that cute laugh!
Haha at 0:14, Simone said "please don't touch me". Savage.
i think she says "please touch" ... listen to it at .75x speed!
@@danielalvarez7265 she actually said “please don’t”
Really happy you have brought Simone to Tested. She's a great addition.
She was really a breath of fresh air in this video! Adds some much needed energy to tested
Simone is good fun without trying too hard. Awesome. Great vid!
Jousting on these things does sound like fun.
It must be done.
It was done by Linus Tech Tips on their Channel Super Fun
This is not the day when weak men cower in fear! It is the day that we fight!!! *vrooooom* *Crash!*
Can we Joust against a litch king?
Meat jousting Simone you mean?
I love Simones Snort of laughter xD.
Simone's a fantastic addition to the team. Great job tested.
Loving Simone and the new office! Keep the great videos coming!
I won't touch you. please don't..
pls don't not touch me?
+CoreMaster111 15 seconds in.
wheelitzr2 I know. Maybe she wants Norm to touch her.
no means yes?
mjdadog dode No. Norm said "I am no't going to touch you." and then she said: "Please don't." As if please do not, not touch me. As if she implied, "please do touch me".
Great job Simone! Great presenter.
Thank you, Tested for introducing me to Simone and her channel. Because man, it is gold lol.
Simone is another ray of sunshine. Nice demo. Looking forward to a more formal test/comparision.
Simone is the best addition to Tested since Adam Savage. :)
The speed of walking the risk of biking and with none of the health benefits of both.
As a swede I'm so proud to have Simone on the team! You are awesome!
Simone is such a great addition to the Tested team!
Simone is legitimately funny and a great addition to the show! I'm looking forward to seeing more of both her humor and her insight
Yes agreed
Simone and Norm make a good team. keep it up!
This was a nice video. Lighthearted and fun. Reminds me of older Tested vids where you guys weren't so serious yet.
Double points for all the snort laughing!
I really love how much fun Simone and Norm are having in this video!
Glide (verb): to move with a smooth continuous motion, typically with little noise.
Call it a glider.
Yaaaaay Simone! She's a perfect fit with Tested!
Simoneeee! This channel just got a million times better!
Good vid, you guy have great chemistry. As to the other 2 wheeled things, I have always referred to them as wheelie boards.
ALL HAIL SIMONE, our techie Lady and Savior! xD
Cool to see more of her on here. she seems very much at home with the other nerds :D
The on screen chemistry b/t Norm and Simone is as magical as Adam and Jamie's
meme
Is Simone Adam and Norm Jamie?
I wonder if they can’t stand each other off camera like Adam and Jamie.
I just love Simone's videos
Awesome video, especially the part where she goes around the fountain saying "I am your savior" was incredibly funny to me:)
Welcome to Tested, Simone!!! Ignore the vulgar or sexist comments. You're great! Build great stuff, test fun things, make cool videos! Glad you've joined the team.
I thought that bar was suppose to be inserted into the rear for stability, like Mr. Garrison's invention.
Well done. I did try out the wheelchair Segway. First i tought that sitting on 2 wheels and trust it NOOO. But after 2 minutes the instructor had to run after me. It was great. Absoulutly a thing that i would drive. Have a great day
Simone ALWAYS makes me smile. 😊
People in Russia call it "giroskuter"
Yes, gyroscooter)
google translate, sorry (
Ам, все называют гироскутерами .
not bad
ого комменты на русском под тестед видео-клево!
these are PSV - Personal Standing Vechile
That is actually brilliant
*Football team so sounds too familiar. *soccer
PSV Eindhoven ?
+LIAM LIAMESQUE Yep
Loved the video, looking forward to more!!
Haven't watched one of your videos in a while. this was really good!
BroKarts is clearly the correct name. Simone is such a great addition
05:50 "Am I supposed to wear a helmet?"I've seen most of Simone's videos, yes. :)
Norm is what makes this channel great... he is boss when it comes to tech.
I love how Simone brings a fun goofy attitude to the video, but I would maybe like to see norm take it back a little bit with some more tech-specs. At any rate Im so excited for more videos with you two! Love the dynamic.
I swear to god, if you commenters don't settle down with the perving I'll turn the hose on you.
Hur, hur. He said "hose".
I've been watching Tested for ages and I already think Simone is better than Norm
I love that smile Simone makes at 02:30 :D
Simone had me lmao, that's a great team right there
haha, when Norm first gets on it ... he just outstretches his hands while he is carried gracefully towards the camera, as if to say, "worship me, mortals"
5:30 random woman running away XD
Simone makes this video! Great addition to the tested team!
Looks like a fun way to spend time outdoors. Even though your not actually walking anywhere it seems like a good way to exercise the mind.
that is an anal probe. reminds me of south parks when Mr. Garrison designs the IT.
Wasn't the "IT" thing inspired by Segway's pre-launch marketing campaign?
do we really need a 6" long pop up erect appendage...? (NO..?) then why is it there?
"Mc.FLY you bo' jo'! .. if you gotta use your hands thats like a babies toy..
It's still less of a hassle than air travel.
Swagway ... that is old but only right word to explain this thing.
Exactly. I used to call the "hoverboard" mini segway. Now it should be called mini segway without seat. Or swagway. LEL
Swagway and the Cringe reaction works perfectly for the crappy ones that self combust. This one seems more usable with knee part and just using leaning.
Swegway*
+Neojhun This is a Segway, that's why. The others are knockoffs from non-reputable companies. Hence the combustions.
It's a Segway MiniPro.
that placebo part was great. good job Norm
Hi Bob
I have recently purchased Ninebot mini pro..and driven nearly 10 kms .. but unable to unlock speed limit from bluetooth app..
And still shows the safety msg n to ride for km for unlock..
Pls suggest how to overcime this unlock problem.
I'm too poor and behind in technology, I'll just stick with my skateboard.
I'm too poor and behind the times, I'll just stick with my lolo ball.
Wow just googled lolo ball, it doesn't even exist here in Asia, I've never seen that before. Skateboards predates it still though.
i cant even afford one
oh, and my legs are spaghetti. cant kick flip for shit. when i jump up to pop, its like im trying to punch hulk. that hopeless feeling inside.
Skateboards are way cooler thou
By the comments I can tell we didn't have a women in Tested for a loooooong time haha.
Simone gives me life and love
I love Simone's interactions already.
6:30 Never seen Norm make a joke like that before. I wonder what's different. I also noticed he isn't doing the announcer voice and is stumbling a lot in his sentences. He seems distracted a bit.
John Shay thats true he did get her! lol
True, is is one of the first videos that listening to him hasn't made me want to switch the video off...he's usually a terrible presenter.
Liofa it's the announcer voice it's gone and you hear it too!! :)
Didn't realize half of tested subs are 12 years who can't control themselves in the comment section
simone was an awesome addition to tested
Simone! Love seeing her in the videos, she's awesome.
Simone never skips Leg Days.
In finnish we call them balance scooters.
I think in English they are called self-balancing scooters officially. So we pretty much agree on that. Hurry for Finland!
In England we call them a complete waste of money.
lazy wheel
can you guys do a one-day build where you recreate that climbing dime from the park? that thing looked so much cooler than the rusted out ones I remember from when I was a kid.
I've ridden this before! Phillip Bendall from Segway New Zealand had one that I tried out!
Simones' hips XD
maybe i am just in a lazy mood, but i would like something like this you can sit down on, and has two wheels
i saw one the other day, I asked what it was. the owner said its called a "motor-cycle mobile".. I hope i got that right...
That's called a motorcycle, scooter, bike, moped, etc. There are a million of those things. This is something else.
BTW i meant two wheels side by side and still using gyro stabilization
+thestalkinghead Dean Kamen made that. He invented the segway. He made a chair version first for people who aren't able to walk. Changed many people's lives because then they could stand up in the chair and be tall again. Watch the documentary about Dean Kamen. He's an amazing person who has helped a lot of people.
And it drives me home while I sleep
Simone is such a badass.. Can't get enough of her
welcome Simone. love the snort
Was that a fart at 6:18 ?
Simone snorts when she laughs.
she farts when she laughs. "hahahahaha.. pfpfpft."
Cute :))
svenskt namn, ståhjuling
Genialt!
LÄTT!
Nu får vi bara ta och översätta det till engelska...standi-wheeli...
bort bort bort
Heter ståhjuling her i Norge også :)
Simone is WONDERFUL.
Hope to see more Simone on future videos
Simone is so lovely

Good job. She got the hang of it quickly.
I'd like to see more of Simone! She was awesome!
Step1 click on the video
Step2 scroll to the comments
Step3 enjoy al the nice ass comments 😂😂
I've been watching tested since it started. I've seen all the changes. I personally think Simone is a great addition. The content has been a little bland lately, this was a little more fun, more like the old days. But then again adding an attractive blonde Swedish woman who is also a tech geek, well its pretty hard to go wrong with that lol.
Nice job guys!
Simone is by far the most attractive person they've ever had on tested. Welcome to America Simone! Love seeing this content with a female perspective.
Simone is so delightfully awkward.
Would be cool to put a mannequin on it and have it ride up to people.
LOL!
Welcome Simone. Looking forward to seeing more of you on Tested. The place needed a little more... balance😂
Will this be banned on a plane like the previous versions that always blow up when overcharged or not functioning overall?
Wheelboard is the Only Logical name. It's a board with Wheels.
You're a tool. With that logic a skateboard, longboard, rip sticks, etc. would be called wheelboards.
its for sure not the only logical name :)
Damn Simone wears those tight jeans perfectly.
Gotta love that Simone.
so is this the genuine segway release or ninebot one which originally sell in china?
