Best curb nudge video lesson ever. I've seen others but this one seems more reachable as it is gradual. The biggest fear for beginners is indeed the contact with the motor engaged and having the board hitting the curb makes me nervous of falling. Thanks for putting this together !
It’s a small mental challenge to push through, but, once you conquer it mentally you’ll realize that the board will just carry you right over the ledge. It’s pretty sweet! Thanks for the kind words man, I appreciate your support! 👊🏾
I’ve been fumbling for curb nudges for weeks, finally find this video and pick it up in half an hour. Legit thought I wouldn’t be able to ever do these until I found this, thanks man
You should be a teacher, bro. You have a great way of explaining things. The progressive steps really helped me understand. I’ll be practicing with my new board now, thanks dude.
Great video fam! I actually practice balancing on my board with it off. It's like the most intense balance exercise ever because you're actively fighting the weight of the battery, and no friction from the motor like you'd get with a standard balance board.
Your speed of teaching is awesome for video format! I have just over 800 miles my first 4-500 miles I tried nudging so many times the bottom of my board almost tore into the battery, I stopped trying for the past miles. Have had my board just a bit over a year. Watched your video and 1 hour max I have successfully completed 2 nudges. Only reason I didn’t keep going is because my board over heated lmao!
Hey thanks so much for the feedback, I appreciate it! The curb nudge is a daunting maneuver. But once you grow some confidence, it’s going to feel great not having to get off of your board so often.
Liked and subbed the second I landed my first nudge and two to make it true. Thanks to you I was motivated to work my way up to figuring it out. As a Clydesdale rider myself, I never thought nudging would be in my wheelhouse.
I appreciate the support my man! 🙏🏾 I’m stoked that my video was helpful. Just keep practicing it and you’ll get better and better. I’m amazed how much I’ve progressed with my confidence in nudges, even since making this video. Once you get the nudged on lock, you can start experimenting with bonks. Bonks make riding really fun! 🤙🏾
I've also got 3500 miles between two boards. My modified Pint just went out the other day (shorted motor windings), and I pulled the trigger on a new Pint X with the 10 year anniversary sale instead of replacing the motor AND battery on the Pint (again). Never done a successful curb nudge... that's gonna be the first order of business when the new board gets here tomorrow now though! Thanks for the great video and all the encouragement you've been giving in the comments :)
Congrats on the new board! It’s always exciting to upgrade. Good luck on learning the nudge! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! You’ve got this. 👊🏾
Thanks for the video…the turning off to get the feel totally makes sense from a preparation standpoint. Thanks for simplifying every step along the way.
Right on, I am glad that the video helped you! Sometimes breaking it down to the basic fundamentals helps our comprehension! Keep practicing and you’ll be a master of nudges in no time! 👊🏾
Thank you so much for this video. I've only been riding for about 2.5 weeks and other instructional videos on curb nudging seemed daunting but this one was easy to follow and a breath of fresh air. I had it down within an hour! I'm still not 100% but I'm very happy with my progress.
Yoooo that is great! I’m stoked that my video was helpful to you. Keep practicing and putting in reps. Every curb is going to feel different but if you take the basic foundational approach, you’ll be able to nudge anything!
Thanks for this very different approach. I've been delaying to learn this for over a year, and thanks to your approach I gave it a try practicing the first 2 steps. I thought I would practice that for a week or so before I even tried the whole thing. Well, my first successful nudge, got it within 1-2 hour/s. I also would have scratched my board WAY more if I didn't practice the steps as you say. The curb I found near me wasn't that big, that helped me get it sooner. This might be a good tip starting with a smaller one to buid confidence while you get the feel of it. I was surprised that it was no way as hard As I pictured it to be.
Right on!! That’s dope to hear. I’m glad my video helped you progress with the nudge! It took me a full year to get started on mastering the nudge too. No worries or judgement! The whole goal is to never have to dismount your board, right? Once you master the nudge and bonk, you’ll never have to get off. Enjoy the ride and float on friend! 🤙🏾
Another great curb nudge video!! 👏👏 💡Here’s a great tip for beginners such as myself for a lot more success rate with curb nudges is when you ride the board with the heavier side as front. 💡
Thanks for the support my man! I appreciate it! And interesting perspective, I’ve never tried riding with the battery in the front. That’s sweet! I’ll have to give it a try!
Just when you think you've seen all of the curb nudge lessons this one comes out. I haven't had luck with the other tutorials but this is more of a "feel" drill which is probably what I need.
Thanks for the compliment man! Yeah for me I really just practice the sensation of the movement before I try it full on. Being in tune with the body and the board is crucial! 🤙🏾
i love how very detailed this video is, I just got a pint x two weeks ago but to due the crazy weather these days (rain), havent gotten to enjoy it to the fullest. Cant wait for the rain to stop and being able to try out this trick and using the tips you gave, Thanks!
Finały Finally someone who took a different approach :) That is, from the perspective of getting used to the movement. Very nice approach. Too often we hear "just accelerate hard and everything will be fine!". The "calm your head and get used to it" approach is much more my style. Good job.
Thanks so much my man! 👊🏾 Half the battle of mastering the board is just keeping the mind calm and realizing what the board is capable of doing for you. They’re powerful!
Thanks friend, I appreciate the kind words! Us big boys are very capable! Just takes a little encouragement and confidence to go for it! If I can do it, you can do it! You’ve got this! 👊🏾
i like how everyone nudges differently and teaches differently haha, the way you do it is different from the way onetrickwheel does it and is different from the way i've been doing it, which adds a lot of flavors to each rider
Thanks for the compliment! You’ve got this my man, just take it nice and easy. Once you become familiar with the movement and sensation, just let the board do its thing and you’ll roll right over the curb! 👊🏾
Thanks for the video! I sold my first onewheel a few years ago as I felt the learning curve was too high. Just ordered two more yesterday (wanted to guarantee a riding buddy lol) and found this video, you got me stoked bru! I’m a bigger dude too, so not gunna lie, I respect the confidence mad bru. Oh! Btw, what helmet is that?!? I dig it!
Hey thanks for the kind words dude! I apologize for my delayed response. - And I’m stoked that my video was helpful to you. Congrats and welcome back to the float life! We are stoked to have you back. My advice, is don’t let your size inhibit or discourage you from trying or doing something you truly enjoy. - I am wearing the SMITH optics Express Cycling helmet, MIPS version.
Best Nudge Video ever.. you’re a wonderful teacher. Is that a GT? What helmet is that? I am going to subscribe Can you do a quick helmet video titled best Onewheel helmet
Thanks so much for the compliment! And thanks for the sub, I appreciate the support! 👊🏾 When I filmed this video I was riding the GT. I am wearing the Smith Optics Express MIPS helmet. Thanks for the video recommendation. I’ll see what I can make! 👊🏾
Sorry for my delayed response! I am a bigger dude. I weigh 275 so I should be riding at 27.5 PSI. But tbh I want to maximize my range and get the best pop on my bonks so I have my PSI at 30. It’s not recommended by onewheel but I love riding at that PSI. That’s for street riding though. On trails I drop the PSI to usually 24/25.
great tips! i would have never thought of practicing on a dead board. ive only really ridden very low effort street and the occascional trail. ill definitely have to go out of my comfort zone, and also likely turn off simple stop, but i definitely feel this will be less overwhelming than just going out solo and feeling dumb for hour.
Right on, I hope this strategy helps! Practicing the motion is half the battle. The other half is just trusting the board to do its job. You’ve got this!
Awesome tutorial. What riding mode do you use? I’ve been riding a year now and I still can’t get the curb nudge down, wondering if I should use something other than flow
Thanks for the compliment! For tricks I was riding in flow. But for commuting and trail riding I really dig highline! I do have some digital shaping adjustments but highline is typically what I ride in on the daily ride!
I’m in Highline with some adjustments to the digital shaping. I ride streets at a high psi: 30. Trails I bring it down to 24 for extra cushion and stability!
Good question! To be honest, I don’t think it’ll make a real difference. You can perform this move with any tire. A treaded might grip a little better, but any tire, even a stock slick will be able to nudge!
It’s scary! I totally get it. But wouldn’t it be nice to not have to get off your board ever? That’s what nudges and bonks will do. Just enhance your riding experience. Take it nice and slow. Hopefully my video can help you out and give you some confidence in learning to nudge!
That’s a totally legitimate concern! I had the same fears when I first started riding. I told myself that I’d only use it for cruising around the city and maybe commuting. Now I’ve put roughy 3,500 miles on between two boards and I’ve really put them through some gnarly fun. From trail riding, bonking roots, dropping off of curbs, to nose slides, and general board throwing around, I’ve yet to have any issues with my boards from impact. They’re pretty durable boards!
This is word-for-word how OneTrickWheel teaches curb nudges. Solid video, but you should give credit since it seems like you went to his clinic and regurgitate it via video
Thanks for your comment. Did you watch the first 2 minutes of my video? I did give them a shout out, articulated that I went to their clinic, mentioned Dave by name and then tagged them and shared where to find them on RUclips, Instagram, and TikTok. Is there more you suggest I do?
There’s always a small risk, for sure! But these boards are pretty solidly built. They’re durable and meant to be thrown around. I’ve really put my board through the ringer and impact has never given me any issues whatsoever.

Great video. I'd just add that you should demonstrate it at the beginning so we know what it looks like first, for context.
Oh good call. I appreciate the feedback!
Is it easier with a enduro tire?
Good question! To be honest, I don’t think it’ll make a real difference. You can perform this move with any tire. A treaded might grip a little better, but any tire, even a stock slick will be able to nudge!
Still need to master this. Thanks for the help and video

Pick it up don't bust it up. Front teeth & batteries are expensive.
All personal preference. If I don’t have to get off the board, then I won’t! Nudging is a really nice skill to have!
