Fortunately you don’t have to be a kid. A large number of members are in their 40’s. It’s more based on your balance and willingnesses to learn. Try it out!
12:50 - the only issue with this helmet is that it isn't meant to be used when faster than 25km/h. That's why I recommend the use of a true motorcycle helmet with chin guard instead. Something like the « Nolan N30-4VP » (or one of its variants).
14:55 & 15:25 - another suggestion for those in Europe : Gyroriderz' Gloves (French small company) which combined both the protective gloves and wrists guards.
TSG helmets are good to about 20 mph ... just fyi. You need a DOT helmet for anything above that. The reason the TSG is so light is that it has minimal protection. They look cool, but are not safe at speed. Same for the steelbirds and all the other helmets tat look cool, but aren't for speed or motorized vehicles.
I’ve heard this before. I’m open to any recommendations, mountain bike helmets etc. I use a traditional motorcycle helmet, but only for night rides generally. It definitely doesn’t look as cool, but I’m sure it is safer for high speed head contact crashes. Thanks for checking out the video.
great vid and useful tips, i just started learning on older model Ninebot One S2 , it's hell of training, trying to be on it without the fence im holding onto. Cheers
It’s worth the time and energy to learn. Once you get it you’ll want to ride every day. I rarely drive my car unless I have to go somewhere with my family or carry something big. So it’ll essentially save you money as well. Thanks for watching.
You don’t even feel it while riding. But just like I mentioned in the video, I’d rather be safe, than sorry. Especially being that our insurance won’t cover liability damage if our EUC hit a car. Also i don’t want my EUC falling off a cliff either.
Thanks, great vid. I am gonna get me a couple of them shoulder lights :) Only one complaint. Sorry, that helmet isn't the best, unless you're a scatter or a cyclist.
O'Neal Kamikaze Protective could be a consideration. Something else to consider is motorbike foot wear, honestly I only wear barefoot shoes, but for riding it has to be motorbike boots, there are to many small bones in the foot for me personally not to wear motorbike boots, you just have to adjust, modify the boots removing the heel and adjusting inside the boot to make the foot bed as flat as possible, it will never be as good as barefoot but close. Thanks for the video
@@riandowright3542 No worries and I will do, should you consider motorbike boots, I would strongly suggest the Forma Terra Evo Low boots (for high speed riding), the external heel can be removed easily, the insole can be removed and a counter placed inside the boot at the front made from EVA, then replace the insole with an otholite insole. Once they break in it very close to barefoot. secondly the TCX Dartwood (slower riding 35mph) again the same process as above but consider a sole replacement for something grippy. A good cobbler will know how to do the above. I spent a lot on boots before arriving at the above.
Me neither. The only time I actually crashed from wobbles was when I hit a large rut in the road and landed on the pedals with feet out of position. Pre suspension wheel of course
I actually got the mirrors at Autozone Car parts store. They are convex mirrors for a car. They work well. I just added Velcro to affix then to the wrist guards. Thanks for watching.
LOL!!! I understand bro. It’s not for everyone. I’m sure others less skilled than you probably watch you going through an intersection on your bike and think that they would much rather have two extra wheels, on top of the two you feel comfortable with (aka a Car). We all have our own opinion about the best way to wrap adrenaline and convenience into a package. Some could argue the point, but in my opinion EUC’s are the most convenient means of transportation within a 50 mile range. Especially in any large City. The caveat is that one must have the physical ability to ride an EUC. I love bikes two, but my wife says no, do to the accident statistics. There are no accident stats she can present to me for EUC’s…LOL
@@riandowright3542 I respect anyone that enjoys things with less than 4 wheels. I ride a Honda CBR600RR that most people can't figure out why anyone would want to ride one of those (dangerous) things and have crashed three bikes over the last 40 years and couldn't wait to get back on the things after the bones healed. One of my friends bought a thing that looked like an oversized skateboard with a weed eater engine. I couldn't stay up on the thing for more than about 20 feet at a time.
are you planning to review pidzoom gear? They say they make safety stuff just for electric unicycles.
Great video.
nice production. have you thought about a helmet mirror? I just ordered the pidzoom one.
Wish I was a kid again. Didn't know EUCs was even a thing. Great vid very informative.

Average age euc rider is low 40s , median cost of euc is 2k usd
I compare EUC riding to downhill skiing. If you can ski, you can do this. The only downsides are that landings are a little rougher.

Great video and great production quality.
Nice video. I appreciate the new site for half off gear

Great meeting you today. Now I'm going to have to get one...see what you did...lol.
Join the club…LOL! You’ll never go back once you learn how to ride.
Dam good job lil bro
I really appreciate the video! I used your link and ordered a tether. Still not sure how I feel about using it, but I do like the idea of it.

Awesome video! One question, where's that hand mirror from? It's a great idea.
Cool list , for shoes I recommend SHIMA SX-2 Evo Motorcycle Shoes
I’ll definitely check those out. Thanks for the recommendation.

I greatly appreciate the advice. I will look into both the O’Neal Shorts and the Motorbike boots. Thanks for watching my vid.

Genial saludos cordiales desde Patagonia Chile. Espero poder tener uno..
Once you get one, you will never go back.
@@riandowright3542 Los valores en Chile subieron un 60 % es inalcanzable..Saludos cordiales amigo
I ride since one year. I was looking fore this infos. I just do small ride on a mcm4 14" weel. I don't know how to organised all that thing yet!
Just keep riding and it’ll become muscle memory😊
i haven't find the site for the impact jacket. absolute snow?@@riwrightvideoproductions6275
8:13 never understood why when people feel the wheels wobbling, they don't stop they just continue till they wipe out.
Me neither. The only time I actually crashed from wobbles was when I hit a large rut in the road and landed on the pedals with feet out of position. Pre suspension wheel of course

You picked the one camera angle that looks like AI when you talking lmao
LOL! I think it’s the lighting. I can see how it does. First time I’ve heard that. 🤣
@@riandowright3542 It's the intro, the face movements, the sound is slightly out of sync
Great video! Where did you get your hand mirror? Do you like it? I have one, but it is hard to see things in the distance.
I actually got the mirrors at Autozone Car parts store. They are convex mirrors for a car. They work well. I just added Velcro to affix then to the wrist guards. Thanks for watching.
I'll just get motorcycle gear.
I consider safety equipment is to add another wheel. It's called a motorcycle.
