    One of the better videos for sure. Thank you. I am 63 and I am going into day three.
    Observations: My legs were weak to begin with so I was VERY shaky and tired quick. I highly recommend stretching before and after training. (I hate to stretch) and taking an anti inflammatory (Advil). You are going to have a lot of soreness. EVERYWHERE.
    You will be twisting at the waist A LOT to keep your balance / direction / keeping the wheel under you..
    Watch how other new riders use their arms for control for turns, going forward and such.
    If you panic and need to slow down fast, use a sitting motion. IMO.

    As an experienced mountain biker just dabbling into EUC videos and getting hyped; I ended up jumping in, buying a used Kingsong, for both commuting and work-purposes. My overconfidence and allowing myself to be mislead by only watching review videos resulted in me making precisely the mistakes you highlighted. Yours is really the best tutorial + your day 1 video. For the first hour I would stomp on the platform and/or try to hold the wheel with my hand in an awkward position or try to stand up from seated or nearly seated. Then I watched your tutorial, followed exactly what you said, and was riding within another hour. Could have avoided all the extra bruising 😅😅.
    One thing I can add from my experience is to consciously activate your core when learning that first step up onto the wheel.

    Two years ago, I bought my first unicycle, a V11. I had no idea how to ride it until I stumbled upon this video and followed Mr. Phillips' instructions. That day, I rode 86 km on my unicycle, and I haven't stopped since. Later, I upgraded to a V12 HT and recently sold it with 9200 km on it. Today, I'm a happy owner of a Begode EX30. I want to thank Mr. Phillips for his tutorial; it allowed me to enter the world of EUC and enjoy it to the fullest in just a few hours. Greetings from Argentina. My respects.

    Great video - one thing I found helpful mounting the wheel is to keep it under your body and not out front too far ... so when you push with the left foot, lean a bit with the right shoulder and get that wheel moving while you bring up the other foot ... not a huge push or lean ... just enough to buy you time to get the other foot up onto the pedal ... then with both feet on .. standup and look straight ahead and enjoy cruising around in large circles .... scariest part is when you venture out onto a bike path and you're faced with oncoming kids or families on bikes ... ie staying in your lane .. lol. This hobby is life changing for the better.

      If you're a beginner and still scared of narrow places - probably because you're afraid of falling at really slow speeds - try watching some UC riders' videos (UCs, not EUCs).
      You'll see that's a lot easier, on an EUC, to try to mimic someone riding an UC.

      I really did not go into too much detail about that because it will come in naturally turning while moving this slow.

When I was turning on the first day I would loose balance anyway and just go with it and would turn automatically. 🤟

I’m not a high tops guy, and that’s been my main thing. Man, has it bit my ankles a few times. 2 hours in, I’m up and rolling, just gotta improve. I’m a scooter and ebike guy, I can see what this is going to be once I get going. A 30 pound thing I can throw in the trunk and go 30 miles at up to 22 is awesome. Keep it local or extend out from a car. I can’t wait to get good and get a real high power one, so versatile and fun and removes the whole parking situation. Just bring it inside.

    Great vid, hands down best beginner tutorial I have seen. I am a week into it and I've been out every day getting a little better each time. I had a lot of the same experiences as you. To be honest I came into it thinking I'd pick it up faster than I did because I'm usually a fast learner with stuff like this, but it took me a while. Don't get discouraged out there!
    I like your comment about muscle memory, this is a whole new thing for your body to learn using muscles that you wouldn't use much normally, and you'll get fatigued fast when you are starting out, so go in short bursts each day.
    I also found that controlling direction was a big challenge for me until I paid attention to shifting weight to the opposite foot (turn left by pushing gently off your right foot).
    I'm going to practice your push off start technique because the start and stop is always where I still have trouble. One last tip is be prepared when you go up or down a steep hill for the first time because it is a really weird feeling! The wheel naturally stays upright so its like you're riding an escalator not a wheeled vehicle if that kind of makes sense.

    • @MrPhillipsTheChangeAgent
      @MrPhillipsTheChangeAgent  3 года назад +2

      You are so correct how quickly you get tired when learning. It’s like every muscle in the body is working so hard. The opposite pressure to turn is so correct as well. I like what you said about the short burst. I posted in a group or two and everyone kept saying they learned in an hour. Everyone does not learn that way. Most of the people I know take a few days to ride safely. Like you said the key is to not get discouraged. Everyone learns on their own timeline.
