Don!!!! FloatyMcman here! It was honor to meet and float with you 🤙🏾. Where planning with Opal for a trip to DC in the next few weeks hopefully we can all link up.
Yessir, Andre! Please let me know when you’re in DC. I’d love to get a ride in. Awesome seeing you at Oak City Shred Fest! Looking forward to your DC visit!
I had a set of expensive pool cues stolen and I wish I had them in my bag. After that experience, I basically AirTag everything I take out of the house! Putting one on the Jeep is a great idea!
Great idea Don. Ive got a couple of spare AirTags so Im going to add one to my XR. The Etsy tag holder was a bit exy to buy and ship to Aus once converted to AUD so I got one on Amazon Au instead. Cheers mate.
This was fun to shoot! I truly wanted to test the AirTags, so I asked her to steal my board but not to tell me where she would take it. Tracking them worked well!
I hate to hear that your board was stolen. Keep a look out for the common sites where people sell stuff and file a police report if you haven’t already. We located a board that was stolen from one of our community members on Offer Up. I hope you’re able to get another board, or recover your stolen one. Thanks for watching and thank you for the kind words!
Samsung Smart Tags generally give more precision and more frequent updates than the Air Tag but do chew up battery more.... That's why my electric unicycle has both the Samsung Smart Tag and Air Tag
Thank you, Dale! I’m not going to do ORL. I’m old and scared to get injured in a way I wouldn’t bounce back from quickly. However, I am currently on my way to North Carolina for Oak City Shred Fest! Thanks for your consistent support. A new video is coming within a week!
@@followdon I meant the NC ORL as just a Spectator. I plan on ordering an GT today and drive down at the end of July at least for a day of the races. I’m just planning to watch. I’m old as well. Lol
AirTags use proximity to any Apple device (Macs, Phones, iPads, etc.). Tiles use proximity to other registered Tile users and many WiFi routers. The Onewheel could be 50 miles away or in another country so long as someone who owns an Apple device is near it (in the case of an AirTag). Marques Brownlee did a good video about Tile vs. AirTags that I’d recommend checking out.
The AirTags have a replaceable common battery. I am just changing mine for the first time a little more than a year after buying them. The phone will tell you when it’s time to consider changing the battery. Avoid Duracell and other batteries with a bitterant coating. I found Energizer CR-123 batteries worked fine. My AirPod headphones can go without charging for 30 hours if you put them in the case when they are not in use.
love the video i just got mine stolen while i was fishing and had to walk 7 miles home. it freaking sucks and i do t know how to tell my parents. is there anything i can do to try to find it or track it without the airtag?
There aren’t any built in tracking features. If you’re a part of a local community, reach out to them to let them know your board is stolen. Be honest with your parents. They may be able to cover it with homeowners or renter’s insurance. You may need a police report for the insurance company. It’s a good idea to let the police know as soon as possible. Also, create a saved search for local selling sites like Craigslist and LetGo. I wish you luck in recovering your stolen wheel. Once you get it back, be sure to put an AirTag inside. I can send you a holder for the AirTag if you reach out.
It’s good to have the peace of mind! And if you’re going to a Onewheel festival where a lot of similar looking boards are around, it’s also really useful in that context.
Talk about a low key way to make android users feel "not in" lol Also smart watches aren't so cool, they make you look at your wrist more than the people in front of you. My 2 cents ;)
I have love for Android users. Tiles do mostly the same thing as the AirTag, although some features require a $30 annual subscription. And I typically hear that Android phones do a ton of cool stuff that the iOS users can’t. Smartphone and Smart Watch addiction is a real problem. I find that my watch keeps my phone out of my hand and allows me to stay more present. But many people do struggle to stay engaged in conversation if their wrist is vibrating and competing for their attention. Thanks for watching. If you do have valuables you don’t want to lose track of, I hope the video serves as a reminder that you have an option available to give you a little extra peace of mind. I recently had $1,000+ in pool cues 🎱 stolen, and that was my trigger to invest in AirTags. Now all my bags with valuables have the tags inside.
I have a galaxy watch and the main reason I have/use it is because of how easy it is to change/pause a song or alter the volume. I can even leave my phone at home if I feel like traveling light and listen to music stored on the watch. I don't really care how cool or not cool it looks or what other people thing, although i love the goldeneye skin I use, I use it for functionality. I even find myself using it to control my music while driving so don't have to pick up my phone and get distracted. I love riding and listening to music and a smart watch has made that experience 10x easier, don't knock it until you try it.
The most entertaining OneWheel Channel I've found on RUclips. Nicely done.
Thank you, Brandon! That’s a very generous compliment and I appreciate you 🙏🏾

I stick AirTags on everything. Even got one on my jeep. Great location idea to stick one.
I had a set of expensive pool cues stolen and I wish I had them in my bag. After that experience, I basically AirTag everything I take out of the house!
Putting one on the Jeep is a great idea!
This was a great video - love the production value. Hilarious story here with multiple steals lol 😂
Thank you so much! I had fun making it. And on the first steal, I legitimately only used the AirTag tracking to find her. It works pretty well!
Did you add a tracker to your board? If not, have I convinced you to?
I will be putting an airtag into my GT. I saw another video of dremmeling out a spot in the bumper.
Great idea Don. Ive got a couple of spare AirTags so Im going to add one to my XR. The Etsy tag holder was a bit exy to buy and ship to Aus once converted to AUD so I got one on Amazon Au instead. Cheers mate.
Oh, I bet shipping to Australia is pricey. I’m sure you can find a solution that ships for cheaper!
Great video. Will definitely be getting one of these for my board, better safe than sorry! Hope to see you out on a trail soon.
Thank you for your support! I hope to see you too!
“She’s getting away… on my GT!” 😂😂😂
This was fun to shoot! I truly wanted to test the AirTags, so I asked her to steal my board but not to tell me where she would take it. Tracking them worked well!
@@followdon That was great. Fantastic idea for a video. Like who doesn’t like playing cops and robbers? 😁
Solid entertaining filming bro, love the OW chase. I got a OW + stolen only 5 days out of the box... Was heartbreaking but major lesson learned

Riding one wheel looks super fun!
It is! I hope you try it one day. Thanks for watching, Jamoy!

Redundancy is best for sure! Our PEVs are expensive!
Enjoyed the Video. Are you thinking about going to the NC ORL Qualifiers?

Do the tile things work if the onewheel is like 50 miles away? I thought tile was only if it was close
AirTags use proximity to any Apple device (Macs, Phones, iPads, etc.). Tiles use proximity to other registered Tile users and many WiFi routers.

How often do you have to charge the airpod..?
The AirTags have a replaceable common battery. I am just changing mine for the first time a little more than a year after buying them. The phone will tell you when it’s time to consider changing the battery. Avoid Duracell and other batteries with a bitterant coating. I found Energizer CR-123 batteries worked fine.

@@followdon thank you very much i’ll let you know if i get anything.👍
@@beckspivey5686I’m curious what was the outcome? Did you tell your parents and make a police report?
Greetings friend, this AirTag only worked with Apple. and if you know of one that works with android system
Give Tile a try, but it seems they charge a subscription after the first year. It’s fairly reasonably priced though.
Yooo good vid keep it up maybe I’ll see you floating sometime
Thank you! Say hello if you see me floating.
Where are you based? I'm in DC and I'm headed to Raleigh, NC later today for ShredFest 2022!
@@followdon dc of course I hang out at demo day sometimes see u around 👍
@@Xmonsterr cool cool! See you around for sure then!
I'll be sure you bring your GT back sometime😉
Please and thank you! I owe you some photos and I’ll send them soon!

this is a definitely real comment from definitely a human, FM and apple a perfect combination of anti right to repair companies
Lol
24$ for such a small thing which has to be printed on ones own is more than an impertinence…
What are you referring to? The AirTag holder? You don’t have to print it yourself.
anyway, if you ask me the price is far too high for such a small thing, but good idea, i will keep that in mind and maybe buy me an airtag one day 😄
