Boosted Mini X vs Onewheel Pint *Real World* Range and Ride Review // Candy Run
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- I took my Boosted Mini X on the same grocery run that I usually take my Onewheel Pint on to see how the Boosted Board would handle rough roads, steep hills, street traffic, sidewalks, wet pavement and even grass and then figured out which one had the best range! Plus I picked up some of my favorite candy along the way.
*** Update, if you are interested in purchasing a boosted board you can use my friends and family code and get $100 off and I will get a $50 gift card too! Just use my link www.talkable.c...

sorry no help for the Onewheel....cmon future motion where you guys at!
I have only been riding skateboards for about a year and a half, my boosted board v2 was my first skateboard so I am definitely a novice when it comes to board sports. Since the boosted board mini x is shorter and has 1000 watts of power it is a little harder for me to control sometimes, but it’s much more maneuverable than the longboard if you know what you are doing. It still can’t touch the Onewheel pint though from a maneuverability standpoint. The boosted board has almost double the battery capacity of the Onewheel pint but I will say the realt world range test surprised me.

Thanks big time to my loving wife for giving me the time and support to shoot this video and helping me edit it, it wouldn’t be possible without you!
if you want to see the Onewheel Pint on the same grocery Ride to compare check out my Potato Run Vid: ruclips.net/video/EM8xQa3Aiqg/видео.html
Onewheel will always be on top in my mind, and there's one simple reason for it; you never have to watch out for the terrain you're traversing, which you do have to on skateboards
Yea man I totally get it. A lot of EUC guys say the same thing too tho but I have never tried one...
John D Dyer NEXT VIDEO!!!
Great work! I just compared the s to the pint cuz that’s the one I have. I don’t ever seem to need more range than 7 miles. Love my new pint and really happy to have both. Boosted for when I’m in a hurry. Pint for when I wanna chill. 👍🏻
Yea man I just saw your vid, it’s awesome! Your edit is really good😃😃 jealous of that Tesla too!!
You absolutely captured the reality of the Mini-X, complete with a solid "fall down" experience. The good roads vs. bad roads scenario, different types of sidewalk experiences and textures and they can be tough to deal with on your feet when the vibration gets too intense. Also, I haven't found a hill that I couldn't climb with absolute ease on this board. I'm a short woman weighing 154 (as the Mini-X so rudely announced to me on the app) and I get my groceries the same way, put them in a knapsack and go. I've learned to not mind the noise, I'm a fan of "The Jetsons" and I love the sound. I also realized, it doesn't bother other people because they only hear it for about 3 commercial free seconds at the most as I roll by. I'm glad to know the Mini goes faster than the one wheel, I'd be too afraid to ride one. When you see someone wipe out on that thing, it's never a gentle wipe out. I've never tried to off-road on my Mini just because off-road is not my thing, but it's good to know that it will go over grass at the highest speed. Great video!
thanks! Yea they both have their place for sure. My onewheel wrecks have not been fun...
7:40 , are you challenging me?
hahaha you know it :)
7:35 that man looks like he's chasing after you
hahaha I know and hes not really moving is arm lol like a ken doll or something
Finally another person that prefers a quiet board.
do you find most people like them loud??
John D Dyer yes definitely. Most people I come across say they love the noise.
"Let's go get me some candy!" Haha! Gummie bears are THA best!
Yesssss! I will say I almost got sour patch kids too... I go back and forth lol
@@JohnDDyer , ehh.. on on the fence with Sour Patch kids. But the sour gummie worms...probably my favorite! and will be the reason i get diabetes. Lol.
Fun video, loved it.
The question is: Which brings you more joy when you ride? All else is haberdashery. 🎩
I will say on on average the onewheel does bc it’s more versatile buuuut on those smooth roads the boosted is pure joy too...
That is the question! I say if you get joy from speed then it’s the boosted. If you get joy from intuitive control and smooth carving then it’s the pint.
@@emmettshort well said Emmett!
Mario Contino ⬅️ has awesome OneWheel videos
@@krystalsperfectteeth8194 totally agree, I love his commentary and his voice, its awesome! Annnnnd he is a really cool guy in person, I got to meet him last month in NYC (ruclips.net/video/IE1Sy6i4tbw/видео.html)
Recording video is also tougher on the electric skateboards because one hand is occupied with the remote. That's a big reason I make fewer eskate videos... my lack of skill in safely recording and operating a remote.
Yea that’s actually part of the reason I fell transitioning from the grass bc I was filming with my right hand and that’s my more natural remote hand. I love the hands free of the onewheel for sure!
Mini vs Pint would be cool
No doubt I just need to get a mini 😎 I suspect the mini range will be a good bit less than the pint but who knows I didn’t think the pint would hold its own against the x...
just got a mini x!
Saweeet!! How do u like it!?
I loved mine
How do you like it?
How fast does it go too fast or to slow wish it went faster?
Hey just watching this and started realizing the scenery!! I live in Greenville too!!! On S Main Street actually hahaha I’m trying to decide between a one wheel pint and boosted mini now!
well since they dont make boosted boards anymore I would prolly go pint, just know in the hills of greenville you have to go slow for many of the hills. SRT is awesome tho
Hah sweet video man! awesome job for me I try to avoid the wet water on the ground cuz I feel like my belts will start to rip or tear a part so I don't ride it in the rain at all.and 2 days i had some teenagers trying out my board cuz they dont own one yet and they always wanted to try it so I made there night for letting them ride my board haha ":)
Dude that’s awesome! Sharing the boosted and onewheel around is the best!
@@JohnDDyer haha yeah it's pretty cool showing some people how the board works cuz they never seen it or tried it before it was awesome :)
That’s awesome man. Honestly it’s one of my favorite parts. The onewheel really blows people away too. All these things are great!
I have an opportunity to purchase the boosted with over 400 miles for $200 so worth it or not worth it??? Also the battery firmware is 2.3.3 and was curious if it was safe to complete and update even though it's working fine.
Great ride! Still think you're a bit crazy riding in traffic around G'ville. Drivers almost seem predatory in their reactions to anything that isn't a car being on the road. That Swamp Rabbit extension bridge over Laurens Rd is going to make that little ride a lot safer for you!
Oh man your not lying I can’t wait for that bridge! I feel much better on the boosted on the streets bc I get out in front of the cars and try to stay there...
@@JohnDDyer I'll have to give street riding another shot next week--as you said, the OneWheel isn't the best choice for staying ahead of traffic flow. The battery sag on my Evolve GTX has unfortunately made it almost worthless for any area with hills (all of downtown.) Ordered a Metroboard X that should hopefully ship this week. Looking forward to digging into it.
Oh nice I have never ridden any of those boards. I’ll be interested to see what you think of them!
My Onewheel XR is way too quiet. I carry a Bluetooth speaker on my way to work just because nobody hears me coming
Yea Matt I totally get it. The noise of the boosted is helpful sometimes for sure but I still hate it when people are on a peaceful walk in the park... makes me nervous they will be more likely to complain and then ban them you know...
I shout "beep beep" and let folk get out the way. I quite like a finger bell too
matt bell I carry a Bluetooth speaker because I love loud gangster rap & the general public does not. I never thought of the safety aspect.
Haha they must love you🤣
Get an Euc it has a built in speaker :D
are you the "woo guy" Apple hires for it's unveiling events? lol
Hahhahaha if only🤣
Considering the title I'm disappointed that we did not get to see you ride the one wheel to see for ourselves. To go along with the comments.
Wasn't till the end of the video that I heard that you hadn't made one with the one wheel and likely to be made later on. Suggest a change in the title or telling us that at the start of the video.
Still appreciate the video to see what that board can do with hill(s)! You are the only video that I have found online about that.
Oh no I do have one with the onewheel I made it a couple weeks ago. The whole idea was doing the exact same ride with the two different boards to compare the range etc. ruclips.net/video/EM8xQa3Aiqg/видео.html this vid was more about range, and ride quality. I was thinking about just doing a vid to actually show them side by side too. Sorry if it confused you man that’s my bad
@@JohnDDyer thank for the responce. That sounds like an awesome idea. Thanks for the link, tried looking for it in the comments. Will totally check that out 😎👍
Anytime man. Sorry bout that
I will slightly disagree on the slowing traffic down in downtown areas. Depending on where you live of course. People around here seem to be totally averse to speed limits. The road I live on constantly has people going 30-45 down it and it's a 25 mph road. It sucks. I can't ride my Pint on it safely.
Yea that makes sense. I guess I don’t slow them down either I’m just at an increased death risk lol. That the nice thing about the skateboards at times is I can either get out in front and stay there or time lights right to get safely through areas without bike lanes before cars come. I can never do that on the pint. The nice thing about the pint tho is it’s totally fine an sidewalks and skateboards suck there..
yeah, I'm getting a onewheel xr because I live in a countryside/suburban area and a boosted just wouldn't work. also you said a big difference between the onewheel and boosted is speed, but the XR goes 18 mph, so not bad. buuuut I can see the problem with a pint
Yea the pint does feel a bit slow for sure at about 13 mph but for half the price it’s still pretty awesome. 18 is pretty fast for the XR tho I think pushback comes in around 15-16mph right?
That's so cool, very interesting results
Thanks Vitor! Yea I was surprised how close they were in range for sure...
Hey, I ll be going to university soon as was wondering what would be the best board in your opinion, the One wheel pint or Exway Flex or the Boosted mini. Considering the safety what's your opinion
It depends on the surfaces that you have if you have lots of smooth paths the exway would be fine and prolly the safest and fastest if you ever need to rush. buuuut the pint is very maneuverable so if there are lots of ppl to avoid the pint would be better once you get the hang of it, but its a little less safe because of the nosedive potential...always a trade off but i suspect whatever you choose you will really like!
Awesome video. What song is playing throughout?
Feelings by Fasion :)
I always thought these boosted boards where the coolest but then I realized they were noisy, uncomfortable most of the time, and very limited to what they can handle. A Onewheel rider enjoys a peaceful but yet punchy ride and hardly ever feels uncomfortable given the road conditions, or lack of roads in general... the amount of vibration I see this poor mans legs go through makes me cringe... Once you go Onewheel, you understand.
yea the smooth floating ride on the onewheel can be a little slice of heaven...until the nosedive happens lol. Always a trade off..
If you want the ultimate buy an electric unicycle Gotway MsuperX or Kingsong KS18L. Thank me later :)
I hear that all the time. I have seriously thought about it, if I’m being honest people just look weird on them to me. That’s the main reason I haven’t got one
Placing an order for my Pint this week. I can't wait!
Saweeeettt! Let me know how it goes!
Great decision. Your life is about to change in a big way
@@redboyjan I'm questioning whether or not I should go ahead and pay for 1-day shipping. I've heard that some people have had to wait a very long time to receive their order.
@@jaceh4942 The wait is paaaainful hey. I waited 2½ years for my first onewheel. I was lucky there was a board with like 4 miles on it for sale at the time. Waiting for one from across the pond would have broken me I think! So definitely worth the wait, and every penny too. ~~ =o=
I looked on their website and called all of the stores near me and go one in stock from Atlanta...
seems like the mini has a much better turning radius compared to its bigger brother stealth
Oh yea for sure especially if you pop the tail. I’m not good enough on a skateboard to do that yet tho...
You can hear the shake in your voice when you hit the bumpy road. Oof!
Yea man it’s not fun for sure. But those smooth roads are amazing!
Which one do you overall like better? I have an XR but I was thinking about getting either a mini or a pint to travel with.
Pint, when I’m traveling I never know if I’m going to have smooth roads so I always would rather a onewheel to explore. The only problem with both I flying... you can technically fly with the pint bc the battery is small enough but most airlines don’t allow electric boards...the mini x battery is too big but it’s super easy to remove and just ship. I have done that a bunch of times...
Thanks, that's really helpful!
Yea man anytime!
Get kingsong 16s, you won’t regret it 😉
You should do the stealth vs one wheel. Anyways I think the boosted mini x is better
Yea I wish I had a stealth! I actually have a V2 and honestly like it better than the mini x
What is the name of the song and music u used? Love it
Feelins by Fasion (from epidemic sound). I love it too, thanks man!
none of you gonna mention the f-86 sabre? 6:20
Yea man it’s awesome! And really cool back story about the U2 pilot show down over Cuba, Rudolph Anderson Jr. he was from Greenville Sc and the memorial was for him, his favorite plane was the f86
What do you think of the Boosted mini vs the Stealth or V2?
I would choose any of the longboards. If you can afford I the stealth to just get the extra speed. I would have never thought that when I got my V2 but after a year I want faster lol
@@JohnDDyer That makes sense, you like the long boards better than the short board?
yea for sure but Im not really good on a skateboard (my first one was my Boosted V2 a little less than 2 years ago). So for me the Mini is less stable and im not good enough to utilize its maneuverability. Plus the mini is much stiffer and not as forgiving on bumpy roads etc. I might make a similar grocery run on my longboard now that I think about it :)
@@JohnDDyer Very interesting, I'd love to see the longboard compared to the OneWheels in that situation!
Yea man I’ll add it to the list! Maybe sour patch kids run lol
U should totally get an EUC to test, I think it’s the best out of OW and boosted board. I recommend the kingsong 16s (here’s a video link ruclips.net/video/XKBWrSJnAHU/видео.html ), you won’t regret it 👌
They are all terrain and for the kingsong 16s which is 1000 bucks you get 25mph top speed, has a range of 40 miles + a 1200W motor, all terrain(climbs steep hills easily), very portable and easy to walk around with, and it is a lot of fun!
Yea man I def want to try out a EUC! I will say one of the reasons I never looked into them was just seeing people on them I thought they looked really odd but I have only heard good things about them from people that rode them!
John D Dyer haha ya when I was deciding between getting the pint and the EUC the only thing preventing me from getting the Euc was that I thought the pint looked a lot cooler 😂. But trust me other than their looks, EUC is the best all round
yea man I get it, I have been looking for a used one, I'll look a little harder :)
John D Dyer cool, once I save enough money I think I’ll get myself a pint
Great video....you have lost weight by the looks of you! Eating Gummie Bears will put weight on.....dont get too skinny. Eat more candy!
Hahhaha I’m not gonna lie I felt like shit after eating that whole bag....
Gotway Mten3 beats both of them
it def does in a lot of ways as does my inmotion V10 :)
who got a onewheel ad?
Oh yea??
He maul grabbed I’m done 9:23
THATS__LOOPY mall*
I’m not going to lie....
I love these OneWheel videos but they’re highly repetitive & it’s mind numbing for the culture. I wish someone would switch it up. *I can’t make videos because I am a super villain that lives in the shadows.*
What do you want to see different??
John D Dyer and Mario Cantino, his videos are great too
