    You might have saved my life.. As a rookie EUC rider the "wobble" was something hard to understand. Now I can try to maintain better form and attempt to practice techniques involved. Much love to you Vee. I also enjoyed your verbal effort put into the video. Made it more fun to watch multiple times.

    Thanks for making this video, you are a very good teacher, I work as a bus driver and live 4 KM away from work, I purchased a Ninebot Z-20 to get to and from work 4 days ago and spent all my free time learning it (Australia btw), I am still very new to the EUC but am confident enough to ride it to work tomorrow, I did a test ride tonight while there was less traffic and tried to beat my speed record, I got to 35KM/Hr and there was a horrific wobble which made me genuinely think I will fall, I immediately leant backwards and the wobble continued through my deceleration... needless to say it was scary so I took a 5 minute break, I got back on and I didnt push it too hard again and dont intend to, 30km per hour is more than enough for my commute.
    What I got from your video is I will take more time to have a better posture, I checked the wheel (It was perfect) I will also figure out a better way to position my feet, I have a habit of holding the whole wheel tight between my legs, Thanks again Vee, subscribed after seeing this video.

      🙏, thank you for sharing with me your thoughts, opinion and your feedback. I've never ridden the Z-10, but was told it tends to have a mind of it's own and will take some time to tame if you're a new beginner. It would seem the wheel will follow ANY groove or imperfection in the roadway, which can be scary at high speeds. Get comfortable with adjusting your PSI level and posturing. Find that sweet spot that works best for you by trying out different positioning of your grip of the wheel as well as your footing. Get use to slightly bending your knees to absorb a bump in the road because those things too can cause you to go into a wobble. Those are just a few things that comes to mind. I hope the video and some of these suggestions help you to effectively control those pesty wobbles. Again, thank you for the support of the channel.

      @@VeeEUC I just got out of a bus after 10 hours driving on a Saturday night and got onto the Z10 to get home... I took the long way of course and tried again with the speed where I had the wobbles but remembering what you said when I watched the video I used a different and better posture and position and did not experience any wobbles as if was magic.. you are correct about it having a mind of its own too I experienced it a few times but it was not hard to compensate and stay on track, the result of all this is I didnt use my car tonight (sick of seeing a steering wheel) and I went to the nearest 7/11 in a surprising amount of time and I was confident to ride faster with less stress and actually enjoy the ride instead of being nervous.

    Great topic Vee, when I 1st started out on Euc's I use to get the wobbles all the time and quite frankly it scared me to death. I mostly attribute it to being a newbie rider, air pressure, & poor balance, I learnt to slow down by leaning back & turning at the same time, this technique at least for me eliminated the wobbles almost instantly and as I became more confident in riding the wobbles soon vanished & I have yet to suffer from wobbles again, sure they still happen but not to the extent of scaring me. As a rider becomes more accustomed to their wheel, the more control a rider will have over the wobbles. The main thing to avoid is panic!

      Poignantly put and paramount to high speed wobbles. Everyone will experience wobbles to some degree. Maybe not to the extreme I talked about in the video, that's why I talked about extreme cases becausecthise are the ones that are traumatic and lead to overthinking which in turn will lead most people trying to self correct the wobble, which is a no no. Controlling of ones speed is the only true way to stave of wobbles short of mechanical issues of the wheel. 🙏, thank you for sharing with me your experience with handling wobbles.

      I am a boarder . The threat of the wobbles ever looms on our shoulders as we ride balanced on 2 king pins. I had no idea that you guys or bicycles ever worried about this problem. Thanks for the information.. as for us, it seems that stiffer bushings in the trucks reduces wobbles, but with that you give up turn radius, which I don’t think many of us are willing to sacrifice because we need to be able to dodge imperfections or maniacs easily and quickly..

    As a 4+ year rider (4 tesla, 2 Sherman) i do get out of it slightly different most times.
    Just let go of the upper part of the EUC COMPLETELY (knees) . It will wobble out to steady state again real quick (often less than a second) from the gyro effect. Works extremely well on the Tesla and decent on the Sherman (takes a little longer due to bigger wheel body mass).
    After some time you can even do this while turning if getting wobbles mid turns (i.e. turning while at the same time wheel dropping fast i.e. The small but steep slopes at a pedestrian crossings)
    Another tip:
    Crouching a little but not breaking is a good way to induce wobble at low speeds for training purposes.

    Just got my EUC on Sunday and today was my third day riding it, decided to take it out on a spin down to a convenient store. The roads here pose a 35-40 mph speed limit so I try to keep around 30 to 35 and man does it feel fast. But I also got wobbles here and there, even hit a little bump but I always try to duck a little and keep my legs against the wheel going at that speed. I have done a bunch of research before hand and I try to carve a little when the wobbles happen, and I always stay calm. This video has taught me some awesome things that I could do next time.

    @shield400 4 года назад +1

    For me one of the most important things to do on a EUC is balance the tire/rim. No one really talks about but at higher speeds 25mph+ tire balancing really smooths out your ride and helps prevent wobble. You can find tire weights on Amazon for just a few dollars. Hope this helps and thank you for sharing this video.

    • @VeeEUC
      @VeeEUC  4 года назад +1

      Considering we are referencing a one wheel that for all intense and purposes comes with inherent risks of wobbles regardless of a tire balance. If you have more weight distribution to one side of a wheel due to batteries or other innards of a wheel, tire balance would be a mite point if the total package isn't aligned. Just my take on the matter.

  • @andrewwalsh2755
    @andrewwalsh2755 3 года назад +1

    Notice the gap between the knee and the top of the EUC? No gap, no wobble... so I fitted 'noodle bars' (i.e. 2 strips trimmed for thickness from a foam swimming noodle) horizontally as high as possible up the EUC to fill the gap between EUC and knee. Your legs then 'hug' the EUC continuously, preventing wheel wobble.

    Thanks. On my MSX most of my speed-wobbles occur at 25mph, side-to-side and dampen by the weight shift to one side and push on through to higher speed stability. But on my S18 I experienced a 19 mph left-right steering type wobble that I've not yet figured it out to dampen (other than slow down). I've also experienced MSX breaking induced wobble... just ease off breaks... steer it more.

    • @VeeEUC
      @VeeEUC  4 года назад +2

      Key to all speed wobbles is to slow the wheel down. But in those instances where time is of the essence, some of the techniques I talked about helps some to stabilize those wobbles. I was hit by a car a few weeks ago and was sent into a death wobble. As I tried to control the wheel, a media strip was barreling at me. I had no choice but to jump off and land on my back side.

    • @reitze01
      @reitze01 4 года назад

      @@VeeEUC Glad you're OK. On the MSX I can dampen the wobbles w/o slowing down... push past the 25 mph mark to a stable speed faster. On the S18 my weight to once side didn't work since the wobble was left/right turning not side/side. I'd like to get past the wobble thought so far on the S18 I haven't done much fast riding to figure it out.

    • @reitze01
      @reitze01 4 года назад +4

      So I had the S18 out for a ride without my dog just now. The 18-20 mph natural wobble dampens out just fine via the weight to one side trick as long as I'm standing straight up enough. Too much knee bend puts weight further forward and translates the side-side wobble to a steering wobble. Once past that, I took it up to 27 mph a few times. I wasn't wearing gear so I didn't want to test the tilt-back at 31, so I kept 4mph "speed margin" this time.

    Vee, thanks for your video and comments. I have experienced wobble problems and when they start to get severe it is very scary! Most of my wobble problems have been associated with my feet not being even or too far forward and usually I just slow down and get control. My current EUC is a KS 18XL and I had a bad fall backwards from severe wobble going down hill when my left foot was way to far forward and anything I tried didn't work! It all happened in about 3 seconds! So I will definitely keep your suggestions in mind. A comment about low air pressure contributing to wobble and I thought that maybe high PSI might contribute makes me ask you and any other riders of the KS 18XL what they think is the best PSI for that size wheel? Being 73 years old makes recovery from any fall a lot longer so I don't want any more!

    • @VeeEUC
      @VeeEUC  4 года назад +1

      PSI is one of those tricky things you have to play with. Having high PSI in your tire is good for speed and nimbleness. Lower PSI gives more grip. I was is the 17/18 PSI range, and faired well. I've since bumped my PSI to 32 and still am fine. It's really all about making sure you are properly aligned on the wheel to include your feet position. I found my body was severely off on the MSP and for the life of me I couldn't figure out why and I'm still trying to figure it out. Until I do, I keep within a comfortable speed to where I know I won't get wobbles. Usually on nonwindy days I'm good at being a speed demon, but on windy days, that's when I'm prone to get wobbles because I've not pinned down why I'm off alignment. I realized this when I did my speed drill on it and posted the video. In that video, when I rolled through the camera doing 39.4 or whatever the speed was, I paused it and saw I was riding on the side of the tire. Major issue, so again, I have to figure out why my body is doing that. Whew, I know you asked about PSI and I got on a tangent about body alignment. But, I hope it helped to answer your question. I'm always available to share in my experience, thoughts and opinions.

    Awesome video, exactly what I was looking for. I've had an IPS i5 for a few years, but with a top speed of just 12mph I never had any wobble. I did see others experience it from time to time, but over a decade of riding pedaled unicycles must have made me immune. Just got a King Song S18 and now I've been getting a fair bit of wobble as I ramp up the speed. I had already happened upon some of these strategies sort of naturally, but others hadn't occurred to me. Among other things I haven't tried to check wheel balance, calibration, and other setup things so now I'm going to go look into that more. Anyway thanks a ton for the tips!

    • @huntercook6605

      Postscript: check your tire pressure folks! I blame only myself, as eWheels definitely included a recommended pressure (35psi for 175lb rider) in their setup email. I felt the tire and stood on it and thought it felt fine and assumed that meant it had shipped with that recommendation already. About 10 seconds with a tire gauge would have disabused me of that notion, but it was only after watching this (and after my comment above) that I checked, and it was only about 24psi! I pumped it up to 37 and the tendency to wobble is vastly reduced. I've now taken the S18 all the way to max speed (actually 50.4km/h, slightly above the listed 50) without wobble being a problem. I still get a wobble here and there, but that seems to come from normal sources of instability. I must say, doing 31mph on one wheel is pretty wild. Wear protection!

    So, I had my first wobble two days ago. This video could have kept me from making a swan dive. I've ridden over 3,000 miles on my KS18XL and never had one before and it caught me by total surprise. I was going about 17 to 20 MPH and it came out of nowhere. I'm still not sure what caused it but I was going down hill, making a very slight left turn, and possibly hit a very minor bump. I tried controlling it by slowing but it just got worse. I shouldn't admit this but I was wearing no protection. I knew I was going down and pretty much did a belly flop. I had no injuries and, thank goodness, no witnesses. I guess, after so many miles, I was getting cocky in my abilities. Normally when I know I'll be riding a bit faster, I'll pad up. So, thanks for a hugely useful video, Vee. Oh, and I hardly had a scratch on this 72 year old body. This video will surely keep someone upright instead of going down. Thanks a million!

      I also have a KS18XL but I only have about 700 miles on mine. How on earth you got to 3,000 miles without ever experiencing a wobble is a mystery I will never understand. I got wobbles like crazy in the beginning and they slowly went away with more experience. I still get them for time to time but I seemed to have figured out how to get rid of them rather quickly when they show up...I don't even really think about it.
      By the way, @James Fulks, I read your review on KS18XL on eWheels site where you said it was like riding on a magic carpet; your review helped convince me to get that wheel and have confidence I could learn to ride it.

      @@Bridgeboy69 I never thought about a wobble until I had my first one and it was a doozie. I had read about guys having them but I figured it was just for going really fast and hitting a bump. When I had mine, I was going less than 20 MPH and making a slight left hand turn. I may have hit something but I was on a paved bike path. It surprises me that you have them on a regular basis. I very rarely have a tilt back on mine. It usually happens if the battery is low and I accelerate hard.

      It's really hard to say what's going on with your wheel after hitting bumps that would cause it to twitch. I've never owned an InMotion and do not want to suggest something that is not totally in sinc with InMotion. You may want to check to see if the hangers are loose.

    Great vid on an important topic. Have had a few nail bitters myself over the years... solution in each case was to carve HARD (which I suppose gets the same result as moving your weight to one leg as you instructed), OR to brake HARD, as in the full sit-out squat position - not just an agressive lean - but actually like you are going to sit down behind the wheel.

    I just had this happen to me on my V10F. I was riding faster than usual, on the street as opposed to the sidewalk where i usually ride, and was doing fine until all of a sudden the wheel was wobbling side to side like crazy! Luckily I was able to slow it down a bit but eventually lost control and fell off. Of course I was wearing ZERO protective gear and scraped my knee pretty good (was wearing shorts) and kinda hurt my already screwed up shoulder. I guess I'm going to have to practice a bit more on this thing!

Get the muscle thinking to where it become muscle memory for you, taking the fear factor out of the equation. Because it's the fear that pushes us toward the fail/bail zone. Slow the wheel down and apply more weight to one side of the body as you do so, forcing the wheel to rest up against the Calf muscle, taking it out of the wobble. Especially I'll if you're not going too fast. Just a suggestion.

    • @VeeEUC
      @VeeEUC  4 года назад +2

      Make sure to check your wheel to ensure the rim isn't damage or there's improper wear on the tire. You may want to adjust your riding stance. Try playing with the PSI. Sometimes people report too much PSI gives them wobbles at higher speeds. Also, at what point above 25mph do you notice the wobble coming about? Accelerating too quickly or leaning forward or backwards too hard can also throw people in a wobble. Is it sometimes or all the time? I believe you said you just got the 18xl., this too could be a learning curve of a newer wheel. It happened to me with the 18l/xl, Nikola and the Pro. I went from a smaller wheel to a larger wheel. Totally different riding altogether. We'll figure it out, hopefully.

  • @ErnestRamos

    Great video! So I wonder if the "wobble" is more of a positive feedback loop between your body trying to counteract an imbalance on the EUC and over-correcting. Given as this is common to bicycles, skateboards, onewheels and EUCs, I think it is more of a rider issue than an actual vehicle issue.

    During WWII, test pilots encountered flutter and in their efforts to chase down the flutter with the controls they created pilot induced oscillations and crashed. While aerodynamics played a role as initiator, the pilots response was essentially half a second behind the airplane. The half second condition is a physiological constraint of the human nervous system. This out of phase control input created a positive feedback loop which engineers will recognize. The half second delay is not fixed, and depends on muscle memory. If your skills are rusty, you will be slower. If you have to think about it, you will be much slower. If you look at engine governors, you will see the application of droop. Droop prevents oscillation by under correcting for the speed error. As a result, governed engines under heavy load slow down even when sufficient power is available. Undershooting is stable, overshooting leads to hunting and instability. In a wobble, your body is part of a feedback loop. Trying to counter steer is ineffective, you must change the physics of the situation by altering that feedback loop which means a change of posture for the rider. As mentioned in the video, slowing down the wheel is the goal, but you need to stay on it until that happens. It may be possible to power through the wobble, but it could get much worse before you get to the backside of the curve. There, you don't know if you will encounter it again slowing down. Wobble is similar to an unbalanced tire on a car. You feel it at speeds that match the resonant frequency of the suspension. Changing your posture changes your resonant frequency.

      I too tried the shopping cart trainer method since years ago I wore Heelys and this was very effective in learning to use those way back then. And in my experience the learning curve for EUC is quite close to that of learning to ride Heelys. I have had a pretty rough journey becoming a competent EUC enthusiast wherein I broke my femur within the first couple weeks of learning to ride (video on my channel "low speed EUC injury") but I didn't let it kick my ass into shying me away from ever riding an EUC again,, instead I got right back on the wheel before I could even completely walk after my injury and have since bought a new S18 and participate in Portlands Friday night group ride quite often. My skills and confidence have greatly increased and I thought I had mastered wobble recovery until the other night when I was foolishly showing off doing some high speed riding when a car turned head on down the street I was on and I attempted to slow down sending me into violent wobbles and heading uncontrolled towards a telephone pole. I had no choice but to bail sending my pristine S18 cartwheeling down the street and me slamming to the ground with mild sprains to both wrists. I know now not to be too confident and to ride within my ability instead of trying to appear to be a better rider than I actually am. Because most people think you look cool AF just cuz you are on an EUC.

      Different strokes for different folks. Me personally, it boils down to your level of riding because the ultimate goal to stopping wobbles is to slow down your wheel. So to say stand straight while pinching the wheel is not slowing the wheel which will.., for all intents and purposes for some, antagonize the wobble and in turn make it worse. Whatever means you need to slow your wheel is the method you will use to control your wobbles. Hope that makes sense.

    Wobbling happened a lot when I began, especially under braking. Now that I'm more experienced, it happens sometimes when I accelerate to the maximum capacity of my wheel (KS14S with 840wh). I'm becoming very comfortable at riding with bad feet posture (not balanced, one much further than the other) and found out that it can cause wobbles sometimes. I never had a traumatic experience, because my wheel tops at 30 km/h and I'm not brave enough to see if the EUC world permitted 35km/h won't cut off. Anyway, it always feel awful when you are a beginner, because you think that it's due to the wheel... Thanks for discussing the topic.

      I appreciate the feedback and support. I'm sure with time you will find that sweet spot that will help you with those wobbles. You may also have to check the PSI. Sometimes having too much causes your wheel to be squirrelly. Easing into higher tire pressure worked for me. Had to slow crawl it before going all out. Lol

      @@VeeEUC Funny you should mention tire pressure. I was the opposite. I was running it absurdly low until yesterday. Like so low In thought my gauge was busted and borrowed one. I got it to a low-recommended pressure yesterday and it handles completely different. So I'm relearning a bit but it rained today so I'm waiting it out. I think your tips will be even more useful now that the tire is harder.

    If each of these techniques are effective, what happens when you combine 2 or 3 of them? You can shift weight, squat and lean back all in one move. In your experience, does this increase your chances of stopping the wobble?

    • @VeeEUC
      @VeeEUC  4 года назад +2

      Quite frankly, the techniques I discussed are not all inclusive as to how one would control a wobble. Different riders have different techniques when it comes down to controlling/slowing their wheel down.., which is paramount in controlling the wobble. Once one technique is applied, the wobble is controlled; therefore, applying all two or three techniques I discussed is not warranted. But again, there are some more skilled riders who can maneuvering between different techniques to control the wobble. For me, I elect the one that works for me. Adding additional maneuvers is just doing too much. For me that is.

      @VeeEUC  3 года назад

      Sorry for the delayed response; however, several variables could've caused you're wobbles. I'd check the PSI in your tire. It may be too much for your particular riding style. Also, your stance may also be off. Wind will definitely contribute to it as well as the terrain you are riding on. Keep posted on your progress. Would love to know how you are getting along.

    Vee - thanks for this video! Looking forward to riding with you again soon. You may remember my big fall last year on the ride back from Purceville. It was due to the wobble and happened while hard braking. I used to respond to wobble by applying more leg force, but that was not very effective for me and have since found that letting it work itself out by lightening my feet on the pedals, as if jumping, is more effective.

    • @VeeEUC
      @VeeEUC  2 года назад

      Sorry for the delayed response. I was never notified I had any responses to my videos. SMH. But, you maybe having wobbles while braking because you are braking too hard, leaning back too far while going fast for your braking comfort. Everyone has a comfort level in which they cruise then go into the braking formation. Anytime you go or feel yourself go into a wobble, straighten up, get your body aligned then try again. It will stop as you learn the method that works for you. Also, you may want to check your PSI level.
