DIY

@scabaa Aha ikr. I'd come from a heatwave and returned to one after getting back. Was still fun regardless ^-^

our had quite a good turnout but I didn't attend most of it except the big ride as I was helping out with stuff. Apparently when bossman sponsors an event you gotta put in the work aha.

@scabaa It was great. Very wet though 😅
Surprisingly no board failures due to water ingress.

Recently I went to one of the UK events. Float The Highlands.
Officially I was representing Fungineers but I wanted to play it up a little if I was going to be doing some repairs. With a giant spanner, lab coat, cool AF glasses and a custom battery harness stethoscope I was set. If I wasn't drafted to help out with something at the event, I was riding around the event swinging that spanner around looking for trouble things to fix.

For whatever reason I felt compelled to dust off the graphics tablet and doodle it ^-^

@rc It will take a while before your muscles in your feet get used to onewheeling you are using muscles in your feet you don't normally use to begin with try short stints but try and get regular sessions and build them up

@rc honestly, i think it's just practice. foot stance might be part of it, too. Lots of riders i see put their feet at each end of the board, but that seems too sketchy and more work to me. I ride with my feet close to the hub, so it's just a quick ankle flex and a bit of a weight shift for me to turn. sharper turns i think i do some sort of arm swing/shoulder & torso twist to accomplish it, but otherwise...

@bigorne for your son a regular pint would be more than enough. You may need to experiment with his footwear so the footpad detects him as some shoes with less weight is hard to detect.

For yourself a PintX would be great. You should both get similar enough range currently to enjoy rides together :)

@franko Defo go next time! I'd love for something more frequent at a smaller scale.

@lia wow, what a great event! we have a similar event here on wednesdays, but it's nowhere near as huge. i keep meaning to go...

Just saw myself and a few friends in another vid ^-^

@scabaa Just means we need to convert them 💅
