- I share 16 tips for riding a Onewheel in the city while I cruise the streets and sidewalks of Seattle on a Onewheel Pint.
Thank you to SUPrents for providing the Pint to me for this trip! Want to demo a Onewheel Pint or XR before buying? SUPrents has a "try before you buy" Onewheel rental. Read this article for details and for a discount: oneradwheel.co....

Sorry guys. Forgot to link to Mario's channel. Here it is, check it out! ruclips.net/channel/UCkm38ykBXTgSAYYD42BREhQ
Thanks Jimmy! You're too kind, sir.
Another awesome video, Jimmy! I just started using my Pint for the ~1 mile daily trek from my apartment to BART in Oakland. The roads and sidewalks tend to be terrible in Oakland, which makes the OneWheel the ideal choice in my mind. Lots of great tips in here to help me stay safe on the commute - thank you!
Appreciate you and your support!
Can't wait to see you in NYC, Jimmy. 👍
Wow it’s you!
Great tips Jimmy. My “heel up” move is partly to signal to drivers and pedestrians that I’m in control of the board. 👍🏼👍🏼 also, 7:22 bro how did you not shred that spot haha. That’s a sick rideable feature you completely missed.
Nice! I love that patented Slydog Heel Up move to signal control. I flail my arms around to signal to everyone, "caution! I'm crazy!" 😁
You have a good eye for that kind of stuff. Looking forward to when you make your return! Spring of 2020?
Low key I’ll be healed up this winter but yes. Spring 2020 you won’t wanna miss the comeback!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼 I’ll be focusing on RUclips as the platform for my rides too.
Some of your videos are so entertaining I’m watching them 2years later
Great video! You Float right through my work neighborhood (Pioneer Square). I ride my Pint from the train station (King Street) to my building and back and it can be... interesting. Thanks for all the great tips!
Such a great way to share your passion for this hobby, and documenting your kids! They'll be grateful you did this when they're all older. You're a cool role model Jimmy Chang!
Thanks Kenny. I appreciate you.
Thanks for the footage of my hometown Seattle! Looking forward to part 3, and now I gotta find part 1.
Seattle is great!
Love the videos! I broke my arm recently so I have to float vicariously through other people for a while.
Your videos have been really helpful and it’s cool to see the various locations from the POV of a OneWheeler. Keep up the great work!
I'll keep making videos of you heal up quickly!
I’m really considering getting a onewheel and I keep watching your videos, thanks
Just got a Pint 2 days ago. Your videos are really helpful. Thanks :)
Hi Jimmy, at 1:25 you are discussing how more more people are using electric vehicles as a last-mile solution, there is a cop writing out a parking ticket for a car. Either it was a huge coincidence, or you paid an actor to write out that ticket. LOL. It definitely made a great point about your Pint. Great video, keep them coming. I am a new pint owner and your videos taught me a lot as I was waiting for the Pint to arrive.
I can't even pay my kids enough to help me with in videos... that was a real cop serving and protecting.
@@freshlycharged Lol, at least your kids get on the Onewheel. My kids refuse to get on it or the MiniPro.
Here in Lyon, France, I've jsut discovered EUC. I'm riding a V8F.
- People look at me, I smile back at them.
- People ask me how it work If they can, I take 5 minutes to let them climb on the wheel with me holding their hand.
- Ask people politely to side away when they don't see me coming and thank them for doing so.
- Thank Drivers when they stop to let me cross the road.
- Wave to other Wheelers.
- Never Hold when a pushback occurs like yesterday when I hit my first one.
It was funny because last year in 6th grade I took a school trip to China town in Seattle (I live about an hour south of Seattle) and I was at that exact park at 1:03 with the giant chess.
I love going to a coffee shop to rest and recharge. Nothing like a mocha coffee to recharge me and a socket for my OW.
You should've had a Seattle meetup! Lots of OneWheelers up here.
I wish. Too many family things going on. Next time!
We dont need Jimmy to meet up I work in Seattle all the time and my pint is always in my work van.
Oh dang didn’t realize till you passed Ivar’s that I have been there!
Great points Jimmy! Love your camera angles and the ride! I really look forward to your videos!
Thanks Rick. Lots of fun to make. Just not enough time in a day to make them.
AWESOME video appreciate the on the tips! its all about exploring the journey
Good work and Some good tips... keeping an eye on the ground a few feet in front of you while riding in the city is also huge (potholes, bottles and wet cardboard all suck if you hit them unexpectedly)
Wet cardboard... Haven't heard of that one.
Jimmy Chang I know it sounds odd... but a discarded Dunkin’ Donuts box with a little moisture on it makes the wheel slide!
elbow pads and knee pads help too and many are low profile and can be worn under clothing
I love my onewheels but I couldn't help but spot my first love at 4:00. An all black 2000 LS400! :D Cheers!
*0:03** exactly what my typical dismount looks like*
Poetry in motion.
Great tips Jimmy! Seattle is such a beautiful city. I have seen quite a few Onewheels tooting around San Francisco. Most of them have been XRs. I always use one of my electric scooters as my last mile solution. I like the range and ability to keep up with most city traffic as the primary reason I prefer it over the Onewheel. I will likely be picking up a hyper scooter soon as they have come down to the weight and price point I can justify for a commuter vehicle. My last mile commute is 16 miles to bridge work and home via a train. I don't find the Onewheel particularly good at that despite good riding skills now. I have taken the Onewheel a few times on the commute and 16 miles is something I don't feel like doing regularly on a Onewheel.
How about an EUC? My favorite for long commutes.
@@freshlycharged I would consider it but I want a hyper scooter before an EUC. The scooter I plan on getting soon can sustain 40mph safely.
@@freshlycharged With a Onewheel or an EUC a bad crash is pretty much inevitable. I have many thousands of miles on a scooter without any crashes. There is just much greater stability at speed with a scooter.
Nice video! Reminiscent of Slydog style...just a more casual pace. Hope he is doing better.
He's looking good. Riding his electric bike and rehabbing.
Thanks Todd! I’m doing great. I post daily progress on Instagram stories but you’ll see more Onewheel RUclips projects from me in 2020 forsure. 🤙🏼🤙🏼
@@slydogstroh Right on! In the meantime add those DJ skills to more tracks on your Spotify hommie. Checking out Instagram next. Glad to hear you are progessing!
just got my onewheel last week! waiting to get better to ride through seattle
Always great content Jimmy! I bought a onewheel few months ago too and did some video on it on my channel, really fun transportation!
Get that kid his own youtube channel, pronto! haha!
Agree!
Agree (4:20) with 'lunging dogs'! I noticed that the 'chase instinct' often kicks in for some dogs when they see a OneWheel-er. Got bitten over the summer while on vacation because some guy had his two dogs off leash in public. If you see a dog and he's off least (which he shouldn't be in most places)....be EXTRA careful...just a pro tip from a guy who got bit! 🤨
great vid lol kid at the end
I used to chase pigeons at that pagoda at 1 minute in, when I was a little kid. My family and i would get dim sum and then Id try to catch pigeons. Ride down memory lane right there!
That food looks amazing
I’m about an hour north of Seattle, near Mount Vernon. I really have to get down to Seattle with my onewheel. If you live in Seattle jimmy we might ride together sometime. I’m sandboxvet on the onewheel app.
Downtown LA here. Be mindful of how terrible our sidewalks and roads are.
Always be alert. Because the world needs more lerts. ~8^) The OneWheel attracts nearly as much attention as a paramotor. But it lasts longer.
This is my favorite video #onewheel jc hat
i bring a bulb socket to outlet adapter - you never know.
Maui.. my vacation spot. Seattle.. one of my closest cities. Do you do videos that do not interest me? Ty
Maybe with the next video!
sick video, I love seattle
And Seattle loves you!
Can you discuss more about obeying traffic rules? I’ve seen some one wheelers not obeying them.
Hey I'm driving up to Seattle to buy a used Onewheel Tomorrow! It's a v1 unfortunately but I'm going to battery swap it to 14S li-ion 235Wh or 470Wh so it will have much more range than a XR. Still all for less than the price of the pint. Hopefully the lower torque isn't too bad.
Good luck!
Aww is it that one for $800? lol I was looking at that..
@@truesenpai9845 nope actually $400 cash for a 2 year old v1 with a broken battery. It was on offer up.
I'm probably going to to buy $150 in cells and put a 14S2P of Samsung 30T 21700 58.8v max vs the 58.4v max of the old battery. I'll need a blow molded enclosure I can buy from someone on the esk8.news forum.
If I win the wall mount I’d like too pick it up personally in Seattle:) I’m from north bend ✌🏻
I used to work at the building you see 1/2 way up that hill on the right at the 9:41 mark. (Holland America.) I struggle with the many hills here in Seattle on my pint even in Elevated mode. Curious, did you make it all the way up that hill?
Long answer... Seattle hills are in my next video! Short answer... Yes.
@@freshlycharged Ah very cool, looking forward to it. I have learned a bunch from your channel.
hi jimmy, any example when meet some obstacle in the street ? which obstacle we can go through and we must step down from pint
Hey, did you take it down any steep hills in Seattle? Like from cap hill to downtown?
That will be in part 3 of my Seattle series.
Hey Jimmy what gloves do you use?
Flatland fingerless. Check it my blog for more. There maybe a discount code that still works there.
Where can I get those shoes?
Come down to Salt Lake City and we can ride :) Would love to meet you!
Agreed, I am up also.
You rock on that violin!
@@freshlycharged Thanks man appreciate it!
What kind of gloves do you use?
Flatland fingerless. Check out my blog for more... Oneradwheel.com
@@freshlycharged thanks!
hey jimmy you still in Seattle Im in Newcastle Redmond area got some great spots would love to show u
Not there anymore. But I'll be back!
link to marios channel?
Oops... Here it is.... ruclips.net/channel/UCkm38ykBXTgSAYYD42BREhQ
Another tip i'd add (learnt from experience) don't go beyond your skill level
Perhaps, know your limits but definitely try to get out of your comfort zone. That’s how you get better!
My personal go to spot for charging is Starbucks
Do they have Starbucks in Seattle?
@@freshlycharged Good question. I have no idea I live in Baltimore
@@freshlycharged lol
Random question, anyone have their motor turn off midride at low battery?
Asking for a friend?
@@freshlycharged Nope, just happened to me an hour ago
@@freshlycharged I was at 8% battery left when I started to lean forward to pick up speed, the self balancing turned off
Am I missing something? Is there a part 1?
Oh, that was my first day in Seattle video... The Onewheel Age Limit video... ruclips.net/video/0wVOEGKoLMM/видео.html
@@freshlycharged Gotcha, my bad. I just looked at the video right before. Love the content. I am test riding my first OneWheel today. Wish me luck.
I'm so annoyed onewheels are illegal in my country. It's so dumb. Same goes for electric skateboards by the way
Just curious. Where do you live that they are illegal?
My mom bought me a one weel pint
