They haven't made XR's in years, your comparison does not compute. A great Onewheel alternative is a Floatwheel or VESC. Not this crap. You're just shilling some Chinese knock off to make money off an affiliate link. This video lacks intellectual honesty, and shows you don't care about your subscribers.
The XR is what I owned and have that as a legit reference to compare to. We're pretty picky about what we take on as affiliates. I'm guessing you have no real experience with this board. It's pretty damned good for the money and is a great alternative to spending what you would on a comparable Oneweheel. 😀😀
@@Jokestrap-Official How do you know "It's pretty damned good for the money" if you have never even owned the modern Onewheels you are comparing it too? You're just lying again to try to make money again. Your board is known as a cheap Chinese knock off in the Onewheel community for a reason. You're just some old school youtube has-been trying to make a buck imo.
So far the rim is holding out well but only been doing 6" high drops at most and I'm only 175lbs. Dirt roads are fine but any trails with big rocks and roots are no longer fun. 😀😀
That axle looks like it wants to break when doing some drops. Not much of an alternative for a trusty old XR but I would love to try one. For science sake.. 😆
"mom, can I have a OneWheel" "NO, we have a OneWheel at home!" *The OneWheel we have at home* 💀 could have VESC'd your XR or bought a Floatwheel for that money lol

I bet that rim gets bent bad on some drops. How’s the torque? I imagine the off road capabilities are lacking

@@Jokestrap-Official I figured the speed and comfort was only congruent with ideal conditions
Great tip with the hold on to something while practicing.
Great vid guys!! Nice blend of info, instruction and humor in a concise time. Well done 👏👏👏
Thanks!!!! Glad you like!
When falling off my one wheel, I'm terrible at catching myself with my hands, but I'm great at catching myself with my head.
Ouch!!! Time for helmet! 😀😮

Haven't done any drops on it but it seems pretty sturdy. My board of choice is still the Pint though. The things are rock solid!
Lmao you guys say it carves much better and show footage of you struggling to carve.
It DOES carve much better than the XR so imagine what I looked like trying to carve on that! 😀😀
This looks so janky.
It ain't bad!
But is it as durable and repairable as a Onewheel
Not sure about the durability yet. Riding the hell out of it and won't do a vid on that until I hit some high miles. I'm hoping it works out well.

Anyone that rides any type of one wheeled electric skateboard is a giant dork
Why is that?
Old man acting like dorks
Nothing wrong with that. :)
I'm 60 and soooo grateful that I still can! 💪😀
@@Jokestrap-Official In my fifties a teenage niece seriously asked me if I was an adult. One of the proudest moments of my life.
