- I unbox, learn to ride and nosedive the Pint X and here's a problem you should know before buying one! #pintX
This week, my fall to the dark side of PEV continues with me finally getting my hand on the OneWheel pint X! I had always been curious about Onewheel and had talk about it a few times in the past, and I finally bite the bullet and got one to ride and see what the hype are. So is it the nose diving machine everyone had warn me about or a stoke inducing float nirvana the die hard OW rider rave about?

This was a really fun watch, well done sir. 🙏 I'm glad you don't hate the Onewheel. We should ride together soon, maybe when this snow clears a bit. Cheers!
Riding in the spring would be nice! Maybe we can convince him to stop by OSBS.
I feel like he will be ordering a GT before the end of February lol. Mario I was wondering if your GT is still going to arrive in two weeks? Or did they start to push things a bit?
@@dalemartin6063 I checked yesterday, and the shipping date they have is still the same, end of January. I'm hoping it doesn't move...
*__* woh I didn't realize they're starting to ship the GT already!! but yeah look me up next time ur in the city!!
@@OWGAC Sounds like you are ready to buy a GT already. 😂
I've been a fan of your channel for a long time, it's awesome to see you on a onewheel.
I've done over 12000 km total (yep!) on my two onewheels and it can really be a rewarding way to get around. If you don't mind, here's a few tips;
1. Shoes. Flat soled skate shoes are much better than the walking shoes you had on. You get more "feel" and control (and fun) and they will operate the foot sensors better too.
2. Stance. You had feet near the ends of the board, that makes it feel unstable and underpowered. Try your feet right near the middle of each footpad.
3. Ride mode. Switch the board to the stiffest ride mode, that's how Imlike mine for urban riding. It makes it more like your EUC too and will feel less underpowered.
4. Chest. Try to resist the urge to turn your chest forward. Just get used to riding sideways! Turn shoulders maybe 30 degrees and head 30 degrees more and then your eyes do the last 30 degrees. Sideways shoukders and hips makes you more flexible and better in control, compared to being twisted like a pretzel.
5. Magic Tip! Practice always jumping off with both feet together, until you can do it without thinking. It should be your main dismount for the first few months until you can do it in your sleep. You should be able to jump off and put both feet on the ground exactly where you want each foot, and the board where you want it.That programs your mind so in any future bailout you just instantly get both feet off the board and land with good footing. It will save your behind!
Good luck and remember the onewheel doesnt need to be going fast to be huge fun! 😎

You got to go in the deep powder and you’ll see the same floaty feeling with the one wheel. It took a couple of weeks then I got the same feeling.
Very proud of you Sean! Being an EUC King, it may have been hard for you to look outside of your EUC comfort zone, but it looks like you're glad you did and so am I. Most people like me start off with Onewheels and then move on to EUC's and I ride both. This is the first time I've seen a dyed-in-the-wool EUC rider venture out and try the Onewheel and actually admit that he liked it. Over the past month I ordered a Pint X, sold my S18, bought an EXN HT, and ordered a GT with plans to sell my Pint X once the GT arrives which will take its place, similar to what I did with the S18 and the EXN. Great progress by the way, looking forward to more!
I'm new to all this is it really just preference EUC or OW is there a general sense that one is more fun to ride?
@@-JohnSmith- they are both fun to ride but in different ways.EUC has straight-ahead stance tjat kind of makes you feel like you're flying through the air. Onewheel stance is sideways like you're riding a skateboard or a snowboard and it rides over all types of terrain. Both are very fun, EUC generally goes faster and further.
@@mikeintampa250 so the terrain is more versatile with the one wheel?
Great video! Thanks for sharing! I think that even with the extended range of the PintX, the XR fares much better as a commuter vehicle due to its size and stability. I've been using my XR as a daily commuter PEV for about 2 years for rides from Greenpoint to Midtown Manhattan and I wouldn't trade it for anything. I could probably shave 15 minutes off my commute with an EUC, but -- like you point out -- the fun factor is so addictive that I'm happy to spend a bit more time on the road. Getting there is MORE than half the fun, sometimes!
very cool wow that's a decent length commute on a OW! a friend bought the GT so I'll get to try it when it gets here!
Agreed I think the XR is always going to be the best board it’s the right size for an adult I think the pint is perfect for a kid.. plus the xr has so many options for mods …so many
I think as long as we are having fun, then it was worth it.
Your video skills are incredible man! Great review, great riding, dope music & amazing film work brother! Be safe out there & keep up the awesome work!!! I’m always impressed w you
Shows just how niche these pevs are, his channel should be way bigger
His channel is underrated man! Just a joy to watch.
Awesome! As an EUC rider the onewheel form factor is about taking it back to chill riding.
I think you made a good choice. I have had a Pint for 2yrs and 1400mi now, it's had the CB Quart mod for the last 800mi and I love it. I also have an EUC and have ordered he GT (I'm a heavy rider, want the extra power). You did really well but try not to allow yourself to step off the board. When things go wrong bunny hop off, both feet at the same time. I agree with most of your assessments, especially about commuting, except as the owner of both and EUC and OW for 2yrs the OW gets about 75% of my ride time, OW 1400mi, EUC 400mi.
If your interested in learning more you should stop by One Stop Board Shop and see what we got! We’re not to far from you as well just across the bridge in Somerville New Jersey.
If you've ever wondered why the one wheel is always limited to under 20 mph it's because it's made in the US. If a problem happens mainly because of high speed, it's hard to sue a company in China from the US. EUC and one wheels aren't only used in the US though.
Good video. I appreciate your open mind and objective comparison. One note, as a long time snowboarder, I would say the more comfortable and aggressive you are with your carves, the Onewheel feels very much like snowboarding and even surfing. Hopefully, you’ve also discovered by now that carving actually alleviates the wobble and foot fatigue you were experiencing in your initial rides.
15 minutes happily spent
great video! you make solid points, onewheel rider here, i'd love to try a EUC still waiting for the chance to delve into it for a few weeks and really get some experience on one, nice to see someone trying different and new things. wait until you get on a dualtron electric scooter, they are the best so far imo
Thank you for the review I really enjoyed it, helped to make my decision.
(Also I loved your color grading, rally on point)
Carving is where the real fun begins
I ride the same spots, you passed my apartment at one point near the end. Sucks the east river park is under construction and you need to detoure around it.
I have both and hardly ride the oneWheel anymore. When I'm on the Onewheel I feel I belong on the sidewalk and less on the street, EUC is exact opposite More street time and minimal sidewalk time.
Yup, but I think the onewheel isn’t for the street at all, it’s for flowin around and trying to do something interesting on the way instead of getting somewhere quickly
Float life baby
Great vid! As a Pint X owner you only need 2 things that will dramatically change how you feel. 1. Lower the tire pressure some. Maybe 18 to 16 psi. 2. You need flatter shoes (eg, Vans, Converse, just something with a firmer sole). That’s why you’re having issues with the front pad. Thanks for checking it out and covering it and stay safe!
Edit: The Tire pressure change will all but eliminate the excessive wobble you’re having. I have a lot of miles but I still wobble a lot of I have the psi at it above 20.
I ordered the Onewheel GT and I'm waiting on delivery. Been watching all the vids on the ghosting problem so I cancelled my order. I like the ride of the Pint. Would you recommend getting the Pint X instead of the GT?
@@Chris-xd4kb The Pint X is fantastic. I do highly recommend it. It’s been problem free and the range and speed have been great.
@@1800Swagg really appreciate the prompt reply. Where do you ride? (City/State)
Awesome video, as per usual. Great to see you having fun. Happy New Year my friend! 💕
Lots of comments! I started with electric skateboards, then Onewheel, then EUCs. All are fun, but I definitely ride my EUCs the most! I wish an EUC company would make a Onewheel correctly! More power, torque, beep warnings, better lights, speakers (maybe?), and more range. Future Motion needs real competition to force them to innovate, like we see with EUCs. This would really pick up the pace on this technology. Great video! Love all your diary entries!!
Dying to have a Onewheel, but they appear to be insanely dangerous. Virtually rider of one is injured to various degrees. Getting a life long injury appears to be extremely common.
Z10 I think is 4” wide and pint is 5.5” I believe. Love your videos!
Also you have to get into the deep carving stage before you make a judgment, that’s where the fun float is
JUST GOTTA SAY BESIDES THE REVIEW THE MUSIC U PUT IS ALWAYS ON POINT
Hsiang!! Great to see new vids again! I got a OneWheel first, then transitioned to the EUC. I kept (1) OneWheel, but IMHO, EUCs are superior, so I have a few of them (though I’ll be selling a couple of those this Spring). Keep up the fantastic work!
One thing I learned with my stance was if you have your feet closer to the wheel you can carve a lot easier plus the psi is a big difference
very true i slam by back foot up as far as possible and the front a little forward are carve perfect. Thicker grip tape also helps carving a lot
Glad to see you have come over to the DARK SIDE...at least part time. Nice review as always man.
Onewheel community in Boston is fairly big with weekly rides. Has me toying with getting a pint x
Thanks and dude you are funny! Thanks for your comments, and from a uni guy, love it.
i have a Pint, also a Goofy rider & think you would benefit (comfort & control-wise) from diagnalling your front foot across the front sensors then slappin the fender on & bringing Both feet closer to the wheel ➖⭕➖💨
Ya Should of got that GT lol, The cold weather also affects the one wheel's power drastically. When ur ready to hit some trails on Long Island, hit me up lol....Great Video!
You're riding the better version of the Pint..I have the Gen 1 Pint lol Love the video!
Cute little toy ya got there bro 😂✌🏼
I am amazed at how good your camera angle was, despite being your 3rd day riding.
Great Video! I love to see different viewpoints on green alternative transports. I live in Florida, love cycling, but can’t commute to work (3 miles away) without needing a shower when I get to work. Since my job doesn’t have a shower, I looked for a sweat-less, green alternative to my Silverado. I found e scooters, then eskates. I now own three eboards ( Backfire Zealot, Tynee Mini, Ownboard Zeus) two scooters (Emove Cruiser, Dualtron Thunder) and just recently purchased a pint x. Out of them all, my pint x is the most fun and maneuverable device. I have a GT on its way to see the difference between the Pint X and the GT as I am 6’2” and 205 lbs. maybe the GT will fit me better, but I love the Pint X. I think it is a great commuter. I haven’t tried an EUC, but might just venture out someday. At my size I’m not sure which EUC would be best for a beginner. Maybe V10f?
great video as allways...fun to watch
Great vid as alwaysThe only unbiased reviewer out there, who has one foot on an EUC and the other on a Onewheel. Painful! I'm a Onewheel worshipper but am tempted by an EUC for the same reasons that Hsaing tried the Onewheel. Difference is fun.
Ouch...that hurts. I'm totally...unbiased... I swear.
I think we should test Mario's unbiaseness by duct taping an electric unicycle to his feet and see what happen.. =D
@@OWGAC In fairness, I ride eskates quite a lot. I do have a bias towards the sideways stance though. It's so fun. I think this summer I'll give an EUC a try if I can get one.
Are you normally goofy footed or did you choose to learn this way for sake of being able to see better (cars) while riding as opposed to facing the curb?
Seeing Hsiang with a onewheel in the thumbnail blew my mind!.
Hey man kudos for giving it a shot! With anything, the more you ride and get better the more fun it becomes! Stay safe out there!
Looked funny with that pint x. Not going back to onewheel anymore,
well look who became one of the cool kids!😝
the Lunch room sure look nice from the cool kid's table.. =D
At 51 years old, One Wheel changed my life for the best
Blinking light means board was not level when you plugged it in. Just let it sit normally before plugging it in
I have a very similar story but I don't have near the EUC experience you have. I'm still happy with my Pint x and don't regret the purchase at all.
Love your videos man! New York is a stark contrast to the areas I ride my onewheel out in the country lands of BC. Just tried out an EUC (V8S) for the first time and I think I made a mistake ordering the Onewheel GT! Guess we'll see. Cheers man!
My take is if you wanna carve and ride backwards and have lots of fun then the onewheel is for YOU!
If you get the half foot strap flightfins, then you can really use your upper body to deep carve and ride the rounded edge. Its floaty carvy but no sliding so not many drifts, that's a good thing on these bc drift end abruptly
Man, I don't think I could leave my uni for a one wheel. :p
maybe it doesn't have to be one or the other?
Definitely under powered and overpriced! Mten3 is much much cheaper and will beat that Pint anytime! Lol! Cool video though.
New York City looks cold as hell California would be more suitable for you with the one wheel fun in the sun dat part 😂🎉
as an EUC commuter, I got a chance to also test and learn on a Pint X. a few things I want to point out compared to my KS 18XL is that EUC's has (10 points of contact), feet, calfs, and if you add pads which I do (clark pads) you also get front and back and jump which keeps me in from flying off, compared to only (2 points of contact) on the onewheel. you can also ride 1 legged on an EUC, due to having a lot more points of contact and control.
This is also why FutureMotion has limited the speed and not really added much past 30km/h while EUC's are reaching 90km/h (SAFETY)
also as a commuter, YES my 18XL is 53lbs however I roll it everywhere I go when I'm not on it, stairs are more troublesome lugging 53lbs versus 30lbs however staircases consists of a fraction of a percentage while holding 30lbs everywhere you're not allowed to ride it becomes a bigger burden after 3 mins. my EUC holds my 20lb bag when I'm walking so that's weight off my shoulders compared to the OneWheel, that adds to my daily carry.
I'm not here to discuss the fun factor, I don't care, I'm simply discussing practicality and after trying both, there is no argument that anyone can say that EUC's are not more functional and safer
Fun Factory set apart, I prefer my bike for a 15-20km commute : it can easily accommodate 40kg of big bags, it is super safe and I can attach it anywhere with a U lock. But my EUC is more fun 😉 Vehicles are often a tradeoff between convenience and fun. Depending on your way of life, your personal best "balance" will be different. But I really don't think that anybody claims that OW are more convenient or efficient than EUCs. That's just not the point of OW at all. But an "efficient" life is so boring 😉
OW is more fun than EUC IMO. Literally like Snowboarding on concrete. That said, EUC is so much faster and longer range
Once you get better at carving and ride on edge of the tire as your carve, it will feel more like snowboarding. Sure it's a toy, but we're all kids at heart and this is a pretty damn fun toy. To me, it's meant for fun first and commuting is secondary. Anyone who complains that its slow and sucks for commuting is missing the point. Also there are a lot of 3rd party accessories that you can customize to your liking that makes it fun as well. I recommend changing tires to aftermarket one, it would make a huge difference. Have fun with the new toy!
Great video as always. I particularly liked the edit (cuts/angles/soundtrack). I kind of just get on with my euc'ing these days but always enjoy taking in your views.
Thanks for answering the main point of the one wheel... Does it feel like snowboarding. I originally had intended to go from E--scooter to one wheel before learning about EUCs and the snowboarding aspect was always a big draw. I can see from your stance it looks like you're 60/40 in favour of the back rather than front. So perhaps it's closer to surfing? Either way I like (and note) the differentiation of the one wheel as a "toy" Vs full on commuter. That said, if someone offered me a one wheel pint then I'd happily take it for casual mooching around.
I feel like some OW rider take offense to their wheel being called a "toy" but I don't see anything wrong with having a toy!
whaatt!!! NYC doesnt have snow? dang living in minnesota is for sure not so fun during winter.
I find the Onewheel is most like snowboarding in grassy hills, only down fall is that drain’s the battery super fast
I got the X same time as you. I found a wide trail that had a wood chip surface and a thin loose dirt top in places. To me carving on that felt like snowboarding as I could carve and roll onto the tire edge and push out with the back foot to slightly drift. I’m getting better on pavement and carving on the tire edge is key for that feeling. Unfortunately, I’ve been swamped with snow for awhile now. I hope you give it a chance and are enjoying it as I am!
hmmm that sounds interesting, maybe I just need to tilt it more and feel for the "edge" of the tire? I'll have to try and see if I can find a spot with loose chips like you also and see what that's like!
I got the x that same time as well. I only got to ride it for 3 days and there has been snow on the ground ever since. I find that the carving feels exactly like snowboarding and the feeling is quite awesome.
Like you were trying to say, the OW is a different kind of ride. I started off with a Pint then went V10F. As much as I appreciate the OW and the more maneuverability it offered, I was looking for a more reliable, fast ride with longer range in regards to commuting. The OW is nice on a short burst but I'd never want to regularly commute on it ever again. I hated having to pay attention to specific footwear for the front sensor. It's way too easy to cut out on that board which makes it so I can never feel comfortable.
I like the contrast between the two, its especially interesting to compared it to the z10 which has some of its floatiness which had a very mix response from EUC riders because of it.
Did you do a range test Ser ,what kind of range you got bro ?
Sounds like you are gonna sell this Pint X soon or later.
You gotta get some charge port plugs!
For getting up over small lips on the street etc without out doing the little motor, it's all about lifting your weight at just the right time, check out kerb nudging. Don't have to leave the board but basically become a casper ghost with a bit of calculation and timing.
And the snow board feel is there in a way, at a cruiser speed just look to synchronise your toe to heel weight, no rail to feel on a rounded tire, but that's cause your on 'powder' ...until you bail and your jeans become powder on the tarmac, watch out for grease spots and wet leaves!
I was hell of a fun to watch!
Why did you not put on the rail guards?.....
Welcome to the dark side. As you get better and trust it more you get looser in the ankles which allows you to handle irregularities easier. It really is a different space than an EUC in form and function IMO. Some people get/love it, some people don't. I am very fortunate that I can enjoy both a OneWheel and EUCs.
Looks fun, carve more
Love my pint x
My buddy and I did a video on my channel. He’s a one wheel rider and I’m an EUC guy. I really enjoyed learning to ride the one wheel but in the same breath; it’s difficult to give up the range and performance one is used to.
Which is more better EUC or Onewheel???
You gotta try it off road Hsiang, this is where they shine i feel. Don't get me wrong, the torque of a RS or V12 would dominate. But something about carving on dirt and gravel with that big ol OW tire is just amazing.
Hoping to see you out in NYC floating with the rest of us Onewheelers in the spring/summer months. :)
Great video thinking of getting a pint x for a bit of fun as well as my EUC hope you do some more vids on this
Yeah, in US it's easy to get a onewheel in other places it might be way easier to get an EUC
Pint X is actually easier to learn on because it’s not so heavy imo but I also learned on a V1 so take that with a grain of salt. My first new board was a regular pint and the surgical precision on pavement makes it worth having for city riding. Everything else GT>CBXR>XR>Pint X
waiting until glorious return to Taiwan!
What are the weight requirements for a one wheel pint x can it handle 270 pounds
I ride Kingsong S18 but recently got the Pint X. I'm not comfortable enough to push its limits but I prefer EUC's thinner tires that can cut through potholes as well as a front facing stance that doesn't make me feel I have a large blind spot.
Even though EUC is superior in every way like stance, range and power, I still think having the Onewheel as a 2nd wheel (hehe) is a good combo.
Switch it up once in a while, and ride with buddies who are visiting. Any skateboarder or snowboarder can just jump on the Onewheel and ride within minutes.
I just wish it wasn't so darn expensive.
I recently got an S18 and I have to agree that it is the better commuter vehicle simple because of how comfortable the ride is and how you don't have to worry about getting caught in the rain. Also using a trolly handle vs carrying something 27-35lbs is waaaay better. The suspension on the S18 eats up every crack in road, and I don't have to worry about overpowering the motor traveling at reasonable speeds. I still love my GT, and it is more fun to ride, but as a daily commuter, the S18 wins hands down.
I have always wanted a onewheel but definitely need the gt cause I'm fat as a house.
Cool and interesting video
Thanks!
Progress reminds me a bit of the Ninebot One E+ but I think I like the Ninebot One E+ better. I'm going to get hate mail aren't I :-)
👍 well done giving it a try as an alternative to Unicycle.....
I'm looking to divert slightly aswell,.....but I have my heart set on s Skateboard, for more safety and speeds
The foam on the adidas isn’t the best shoe for riding the OW. To release the stress on your back foot switching to board shoes will help. Nice vid!
Cool video man and regards to your question yes, Onewheel is outdated just bit specially the Pint, nevertheless as OW rider the board encourage you to use your whole body in order to pass the obstacles for that reason some of us we called sport and you can see that when you ride off road in mountain bike trails, was interesting see you in a PintX enjoy the short errands in the neighbor and take advantage of the cool stand in your rides 🤙🏼
PS: Totally agree with you as a commute PEV the EUC is by far more convenient if you don't take public transportation at all.
Deep carving the OW on smooth asphalt feels like snowboarding in deep powder. It’s taken me 1,000 miles on the XR to appreciate that, however.
PS: You will destroy a OW tire in 1K miles versus 3K miles on your EUC. They destroy boredom too, apparently 😎
Good vid. I am even more convinced not to buy one of these Turtles. Lol
no one on the internet ever changes their mind.. LOL
I rode one and wasn't in the least impressed. It's for kids at best.
🕊
I was thinking of the Pint X for the same reasons. Maybe switch up your stance to give your feet a break?
One thing, EUC is definitely the "Dark Side" they're faster, meaner, and more sketchy as far as whether they'll set you're 🏠 on 🔥 . That being said, in many way they're more fun. But not all ways.
The reason why I stopped riding my EUC (Z10 BTW): boring.
Sadly I cannot experience OneWheel in my country. No official resellers and topping extra $ on shipping and import taxes or unofficial resellers is insane.
But I do ride esk8 a lot and like them. However I’ve been riding usual longboards for 6 years before but never get bored.
well done !
Bruh mine supposed to come tomorrow…
This is *fkn awesome* (macklemore voice)
🤙🏼⚡⚡🤙🏼
Welcome to chicks
Wow you can ride a euc but took you that long to figure the Onewheel out
I just don’t like carrying it and it’s so slow in the city. Its more convenient to use a trolley handle and the “what the hell is that?” factor is better on my EUC 😎
EUC definitely wins on the convenience factor, I honestly had never seen anyone actually carrying a one wheel around.
@@OWGAC the handle should already come padded. We shouldn't have to pay extra for that.
Need to see your thoughts on a XR.
Being that your a seasoned euc rider you should of got the xr or gt to get a better experience of the one wheel. As a xr rider with custom shaping options I will say the pint is for kids and a novice.
I wouldn’t allow a kid to ride an xr or gt. However, if I did, I would put it on the lowest setting.
With custom shaping in the app you can make the xr loose and carve as if your snowboarding
I ride my onewheel because its just more fun in my eyes. Jumping off ramps, popping and stalling on curbs, sliding on handrails. All unique to the onewheel which gives it more of a boardsport "vibe" than the EUC ever will have. That is why I am willing to overlook the lower specs of the onewheel. There is more technical finesse when you are into onewheel tricks that just cruising around on any other device does not offer. That is the reason I ride onewheel. If I was purely cruising? Yea the EUC wins in that category
It does feel interesting and I find myself thinking about how I can experiment with it even when I am not riding one, vs EUC is much more predictable and static when it comes to ride.
@@OWGAC even a simple 180 spin on a onewheel. I almost never see EUC riders doing these maneuvers. Impractical? Maybe. But part of the fun! Keep up the content Hsiang!
There are many riders who can do 180 turns even jump in skate parks, usually it done at slow speeds and for trick riding. Hang around more skilled riders you'll see @@TheCobaltsaber
@@SharinganUchiha28 Except it still doesnt give you a "skateboard" feel. Thats what im looking for when I ride onewheel. Ive seen some crazy EUC riding though
