    Board looks soo stable at 20+. This vid makes me feel better about going slick. All I have been seeing are treaded tire impressions and I was think I must have made a huge mistake going slick! Thanks for the content Jake and FL peeps!

    I, as a 55Kg-guy, will propably never buy a GT but appreciate the Tirepressuretest. It gave a me a clearer insight on how the different tires are buildt and how the pressure affect the behaviour of a OneWheel. I am so glad I changed the stock-Vega-tire to a treaded 11x5,5.6 Burris a few month ago and also reduced the pressure to 15PSI. It changed the rideing-experience of my XR so much and I am now rideing my OW witch much more confidence which increases the fun hugely. I now see how bad the stock-Vega-tire was for a lightweight like me, especially the hard sidewalls were a pain in the ass.
    Thank you and enjoy the ride.

    At like 4:20 (ha) they mention how they like the slick tire more than the treaded and that just made me a bit happier with my decision. First one wheel I’ve had and I just keep seeing pics and videos with people having the treaded and I’m just second guessing myself. Won’t use it on trails or anything extreme, so it’s not like I needed a tread, but I can see how it can be useful on difficult terrain.

  • @douglasstructurepllc9931
    @douglasstructurepllc9931 Год назад

    I do love the Float Life Videos, Float Life 4 LIFE. There is a T-shirt for you. Anyway, my 2 cents is that with the LifeSavers on that tire it makes a huge difference in its ability to handle those Low PSI because the Lifesavers are marginally compressing the tire and reinforcing the side walls. I would be interested to see, if without the lifesavers, could the tire still handle the crazy Low PSI. Regardless anything under 5 PSI is super impressive.

    Hey Man, I've got the Pint X and today I was experiencing that up and down pushback like crazy. Was riding captain Morgan. Never did that before. I nose dived twice. First time wasn't so bad, I fell but was going slow. Second time I think I was doing 17 and dived hard! Landed on my hip. I'm fucked up. All I gotta say is BE DAMN CAREFUL!! Not sure if it's the software since GT released or what but it wasn't riding right! I'm happy I had my helmet and wrist guards cause my hands would've been scrapped up bad.

    From what im seeing all those upgrades that were requested on the XR did not really happen on the GT,. instead it is its own thing with new bunch of issues. I wish we had some other company making the same type of board to have some competition because this seems pathetic. Even the guys that live with these products and love them to the bone seem kind of indifferent about it. And those jokes about 15 degrees to void the warranty just further shows how little the company cares about what the customers want.
    Really how difficult can it be to just listen:
    Smaller rims for softer tires experience
    Suspensions, they have been designed for XR and look pretty good and could save a lot of trouble with the tire cushioning
    pads widening outwards so that its wider for us large footed folk (we have seen this on XR aftermarket footpads)
    Unlockable/customizable mode so that you can set the damn push back yourself for those pros among of you
    Slimmer design without pointless fillers
    And all those XR aftermarket stuff could be already integrated, like rim protectors.
    I dont even have any of the boards, ive been just looking at them for a year and waited for the GT to show whats up and i seem to have a clearer understanding of what you guys need than the company making it.
    Im still not convinced to buy it for all of these reasons, especially since im from europe and any of those minor issues would be a huge deal

      There's tons of people praising the board and that number increases every day on social media. The number one thing you have to realize is that most if not all people not liking it have been so used to their beefed up and tricked out XR's. Obviously it will take some getting used to.
      I've got a Pint and it's a blast. If you're a new rider with zero experience and the GT isn't "enough" for you, then you're either super hard core or in the wrong mind set.
      Also nobody expected suspension with onewheels yet.

      @@stu7900 im not super hardcore or anything i just expected them to listen more and really have something extra. You also must realize that the prices for these boards are insane especially compared to any EUCs. They could use some competition.
      And sure there is a ton of praise obviously but compared to for example the pint x you can see the focus on the gt on everyone who has it is "i think something needs to be fixed" rather than "this is a nice thing"
      The pint x seems a lot more refined to its customers while the GT seems to be a bit of a miss

      @@magicshon The Pint X had a smoother launch because it's just a fatter board that's already existed for a few years. GT is brand new. I'm not happy with the launch either but it seems to be getting better.
      And yes, EUC is better bang for your buck and an overall better industry due to competitiveness. Get one then! But if you are like me and want to satisfy the snowboarding itch off season, the OW is the move.
