      Happy to hear! Many videos contain people who "amazingly" learn to ride in 10 minutes. We are all different and we are all good at different things. There is only so many talent points per skill that can be assigned. I took my sweet time learning and made every mistake in the book. Knowing what not to do means more than just accidentally succeeding at stuff. Thank you for the excellent comment and I am happy to hear that you will soon be a rider.

    Watching my brother learn to ride, and now David, I realize that what beginners don't fully grasp right away is the fact that balance from side to side isn't so much in the tilt of the body. Trying to lean will usually just cause a counterbalance in some other part of the body, so a new rider is immediately surprised to find they don't have control over the wheel when they dab to the extreme. It's more about feathering the acceleration based on the angle of the tire relative to center of mass. New riders try to dab and windmill, but a rider who has made the breakthrough will twist and throttle. Then the wheel is balancing the body, not the other way around. 99% of the work is being done below the high-tops at that point.
    Great video as always. Your students always make fast progress.

      Hi! Sorry for not answering sooner. Thanks for sharing your insights! That artificial grass is pretty tricky to ride on since it makes the wheel flop to the side when turning. I really wanted to get him on the rubber track once he had done enough practice. He was a bit impatient though so just kept ripping around fighting for his life lol. It takes time for the brain and body to process!
      Glad you enjoyed and thank you for commenting!

  • @TechMan042
    @TechMan042 3 года назад +14

    This was a fairly good experience, aside from riding on the turf in wet conditions. I would also teach people to learn to do heal pressure and step off, before letting them get distracted with riding around. This dude learning kept jumping off and grabbing the wheel. Learning to step on and step off is important because that teaches you how to slow down. He would just maintain speed or go faster til he lost control. Gotta learn to slow down and speed up while riding, and be able to step off first, then you'll be able to ride longer distances as you slow down when needed and then speed back up, rather than jumping off.

    I am 160 lbs and bought my 1st EUC RS19. just got it a few days ago and notice all the symptoms that are in this video, THank you for doing this. My issue still is 1) How to control the wheel before mounting as it needs to be controlled by my dominant leg (R) and 2) once mounted... trying to get momentum to move forward like riding a bike needs momentum. I will keep practicing and this video gave me a new concept to practice in a Rubber Track and field in the city. Good reference video and you being patient with a 1st-time rider. Stay humble and down to Earth Hermano .. good job!!!

      Hi Dennis! Congrats on the RS! It's an awesome wheel in both HT and HS versions. Which one did you get? I have a much better and more structured clip where I teach another friend to ride. You can check it out here:
      ruclips.net/video/X3TtiFGFvQY/видео.html
      It shows the important part of mounting and dismounting as in the end riding an EUC is a lot of one leg control with the dominant leg. Welcome to the EUC club and remember to be patient and forgiving to yourself when learning to ride. Looking forward to hear your progress!

    Got my first every EUC yesterday and gave it my first try couple of hours ago. It does feel unnatural, also my first mistake was the location with no long walls or a fence and instead of a light pole in a couple of blocks so I had extra trouble finding any security to get going. It,s was hard to find confidence because i also wanted to survive because just like his, my EUC is also pretty big and heavy. I learned my first lesson and try again tomorrow and it probably won't give me mercy and wants to hurt me until I master it.

    • @isthereanyfood
      @isthereanyfood  2 года назад +2

      Congratulations on your first EUC! I struggled to learn. Some struggle so badly that they just give up. A fence is nice to hold on to and to have for some security while just figuring things out. Learning to mount and dismount and push-kick it along with one leg/foot does wonders. In the beginning the wheel will just want to wander a bit... so let it wander haha.

But i am trying to get somewhat comfortable and try to go for the two legged riding which i,m most afraid of because the pedals are pretty high up, but as even you have said faster speed help you find balance. Why did i buy this? I can,t stand on it, its too heavy haha. But i am taking all the advice and courage i can get from you all, and giving them a try :3

Do you have any suggestions?

    • @isthereanyfood
      @isthereanyfood  3 года назад +1

      Hi Daniel! The Sherman is plenty fine even for a heavy rider. So the Sherman, EXN and then the HT wheels like the MSP HT and the RS HT are great wheels for you. All depending on the kind of range and speed you want or if you want not actually a torquier wheel but a wheel that you can torque more. So if you are planning on dedicated hill climbing an HT can't be beat. Since you are already a heavy guy to begin with the Sherman will be relatively normal sized for you and it will be the only thing you know without a smaller wheel as a reference point. One of the riders in the group got the Monster V3 with 3108Wh batteries as his first wheel and that worked out just fine. So don't you worry.. if you have your heart set on the Sherman just go for it, pad it up to protect and take your time learning to ride.

(and my skills adequate enough xD ) However, I am planning to learn riding on snow eventually, since I bought it specifically as an alternative to kick scooting, which was my main way of commuting to work, but doesn't work so well in winter. Having to switch back to public transport is what made me finally snap and buy an EV. And I decided on an EUC because its large wheel should get me through situations that were previously problematic for me on a kick scooter, like off-roading and snow.

      @@Tennouseijin Cool! Congrats! Which wheel did you get? I am about to post my latest snow ride which was from yesterday. A 10km ride to the dentist the day after some decent snow. One of those rides that you "have to do". I was a bit nervous about how snowy it would be and how long it would take but it was totally fine despite my slick tire. I know what you mean about public transport! When I rode to work I would pop up at the office with a super positive vibe after having a great morning ride. Much better than being irritated and annoyed lol.

      @@isthereanyfood I decided to go straight for an RS HT... I don't care so much about speed, as I'm planning on using bike paths for commuting, but eventually I want to go off-roading, be it in the nearby hilly forests (one of my friends, an MTB Downhill rider, comes to visit my city many times a year because he loves the local forests. Maybe I could accompany him if I learn a bit!), and I'm also planning to eventually move out of the city, buy a plot of land near a quiet forest, build a house... a long-term prospect, perhaps, but one thing I know - I'll need a vehicle and skills to ride off-road.
      So I decided to skip smaller wheels and go directly for something I'd buy eventually anyway ;)
      Oh, and I'm also planning to learn EUC archery. I have a little bit of archery experience on the ground, why not try 'mounted archery' eh? Like a modern samurai :D
      ... anyway, great future ahead, but for now it's a lot of work to get there.

      It was astro turf. Wobbly stuff so the wheel wants to fall to the side quite quickly. Not optimal!

    Wish we have a soccer field or something. I need a grassy area, not tall, but flat. Grass would save my euc from too much damage as I learn

    • @isthereanyfood
      @isthereanyfood  2 года назад

      This soccer field isn't the greatest. The grass is tall and mushy and makes the wheel flop to the side during turns. Otherwise there is some gyro from the sidewalls of the tire that help to keep it more upright. As you say... it is a pity to bang up the wheel while learning. Some baby bumper can do the trick but still... dropping it on asphalt is not the first thing we want to do with these. Especially since we don't know what's going on in there after a fall. I drop my wheels way too much and ended up damaging my EXN. It is not a cheap wheel and it just tipped from leaning against a lamp post. Although I have dropped it many times before that.. this was (pun intended) the last drop.

      The Z10 is quite a nice wheel. I actually wouldn't mind owning one even today! The 18XL isn't that much better... the 16X is a bit more fun of a wheel but I would still be tempted to choose an RS HT over both of them. All depending on what I want to do of course.
