@quicksanddyoung Amazing!

A bunch of 14's (difficult to go that slow):

@lia said in I got to visit Onewheel HQ 🥰:

They initially said it was a Pint hub till I said “it looks like a GT hub unless you guys have something coming soon we don’t know about”.

haha, good catch! a tanky little Pint would be fantastic!

@franko ha, ya I only ever grab one if someone else wants to go get one. And everyone I'd run into with a one wheel would tell me where the meetups were. I killed a battery sometimes twice a day I was on it so much.

FM uploaded a short featuring all iterations of the boards with all the pre-production models all the way up to the GT.
Lots of versions leading up to the consumer ready V1.

I wonder if there were pre-production versions of the other models.

I lowered the board one notch because I wanted to try it. It feels so good, so stable. The fender doesn't fit now but I don't think I can go back. 😭

@hanahsdax Thank yoooou 🥰
Grateful to be considered a good friend ^-^ Hope one day we can ride together some day

Now THIS is a lesson on how to make a fun onewheel video! Go Jeff and TFL!

@hanahsdax Sorry to hear you didn't get to ride as much or complete part 3 of your experiment.
Although 5 years of daystreaking is amazing!

I hope you manage to do it next year and many more amazing rides. With that GTS I'm sure you'll have the sped to get them done extra quick ^-^

I don't have any photos for my or my costume
I will try next year, but this semester has honestly been draining the life out of me, and I didn't get any time to prepare for halloween or even dress up sadly.

Soooo turns out riding fenderless over a bunch of pine needles is far less than desirable. So much so, I broke and picked up a full fender. With a little modification it fits the FAF rails. Just have to get used to the noise again... I forgot how loud they are.

Happened to me last night. Totally zoned out. When I finally checked the app I was out of battery. 2 hours felt like 15 minutes.

@biell thanks. I think I had a bit of a panic about nothing. Nothing has got caught in the gap and the tyre isn't touching it even at speed or over bumps.

@lia pretty easy to see them coming with the view I had. Were you aware that you can access the link roads? Miles of unused tarmac, fun to be had!

@cheppy44 Only for the coolest bf <3

@HanahsDax Thank you ^-^ The boxes were a must, my only regret is not adding more silly in jokes to the other sides. They are re-usable though. Printed shell and foam packing :)

@biell I can't help myself. The smaller the detail the more fun it is to look at. Pictures never do these justice.

@cheppy44 Welp, now I'm interested.
Might screw around with this when I get time in between classes. Been pretty busy so I haven't been able to ride or really do any mods

Fun writeup, thanks for sharing!

RE:Dogs and OWs. The article says the motor is silent, and I think that's part of the problem, they recognize a human, but their legs don't move and their body does. Instantly freaked out.

My dog mostly ignores the boards these days but she'll occasionally take a nip and my ankle as I pass by if she's in the mood to play.

That 124 Spider body is perfection! I love to see inexpensive cars get the full restoration treatment.

I've only had small scrapes or bruises, never any concusions, broken bones or anything serious. I'm pretty nuts about wearing protection when riding, and it's why I got my massive helmet.

The only serious fall/injury I've had was when I screwing around in a parking lot at my school, and a section of it had a large bump that sent my flying off the board and onto my side. Hip seemed fine though hurt like hell

Just got right back up and hopped on my onewheel and continued riding aound after a few minutes of cursing

@stinkyface When I was trying curb nudges my motor got over 100F, but I'll probably see something hotter in the summer. In Texas, it's either stupid cold or stupid hot
