Watching Action on the Leaderboards

@quicksanddyoung -- Nice round number of 20,000 miles at the top of the GT distance Leaderboard today! An impressive amount of Onewheeling!
-
Didn't want to make a big deal out of it but last week my streak brokey again. App really wasn't liking me Friday and just didn't log the 2 rides I did that day. RIP #7
I haven't really been using the app since so I haven't attempted to keep an official tally again but I haven't yet stopped riding daily yet. That said at some point I'll let a day go by without riding when the time comes.
Admittedly the weight off my shoulders trying to keep that counter going up is refreshing after 4+ years and I no longer have to worry about some upcoming things that was actually going to nuke my streak. It's a shame to have missed an official 1000 days by about a month but knowing I did 1606 logged and screenshotted I'm happy with that.
To all those still in the game I wish you great fortunes and bigger numbers ^-^
Thanks @HanahsDax and @S-Leon for following this journey along with me and inspiring me to just keep going :) @Puzz360 No pressure but I'm leaving the UK representation on that leaderboard to you now ;)

@lia Congratulations on such a long continuous streak! It’s disappointing when connectivity is the issue that breaks a streak.
I feel like the new guy, the GT being my first Onewheel. I had a day streak of 266 days, and lost it due to bad connectivity. As it went, I was on an ice fishing trip in the frozen north. I took my GT along, only to realize the only possible place to ride was on the snow plowed runway that the single engine aircraft landed on. This was ON the frozen lake! 30” of ice, with crunchy snow on top, was my only option to ride. I did ride just 2 miles a day, for three consecutive days in an effort to keep that streak going. On the third day, my streak did not record.
(I waited for the ‘heat of the day’ a whopping 14 degrees F, to ride.)
I continued to ride every day, and am now at an additional 244 days. So I have ridden every day since I first took delivery of my GT for a total of 510 days. That said, I am planning to liberate myself from the streak intensionally.
Let’s continue to celebrate with those who continue the day streaks, while enjoying the freedom of letting it go!
All the best,
Doug -
@lia thats a shame Lia, but I completely understand. Sometimes trying to get a slot in the day to ride is tricky and not having to do it sometimes would be handy. However, massive well done for keeping going for 4 plus years, amazing dedication … (if the app hadn’t glitched twice now, would you be ahead of Fuser?)
For now, I will endeavour to keep representing the UK on the XR leaderboard alongside the long standing no1 trappedinanelevator on the Pint and RodneyCat on the og OW.
That reminds me, I have a story about trappedinanelevator I should relate in the OW neighbours thread (maybe I will sometime)I think I too had issues that day with recording of the ride as part of the day streak, I went out about 2 or 3 times before it registered.
As said by quicksand, not nice to be “done over” by a technical glitch.
Let’s see how long my board/me manages to keep going. Cheers.
-
@quicksanddyoung love the thought of doing that ride.
I bet you are the only rider to have recorded a ride at that location…. Nice. 👍 -
HanahsDax is up to #2 on the GT Daystreak today!
-
@s-leon It was a nice surprise when I saw it yesterday. As @Puzz360 stated earlier in this thread it always makes me wonder what happened to the rider who let their streak go. Hopefully it was on their terms, not an app issue or board malfunction. In any case it was a nice streak godanglego had and I hope the best for them.
-
Sometime this afternoon/evening the leaderboard has changed around... ?
It was as usual earlier today.
-
@HanahsDax -- I think your name looks very good at the top of the list.
-
@puzz360 congratulations!
Edit: replied to the wrong post. Should have been congratulations! to @HanahsDax -
With the recommendation now of not riding the V1 or Onewheel Plus, will Future Motion continue to support those portions of the Leaderboards?
-- I like holding places! -
@s-leon Good question. That would be a great shame to lose all of the hard work.
:(
Let's hope not so we can continue to :) -
Seems strange to rearrange the order, moving those boards to the top only to then delete them soon afterwards….
-
Well, so far none of us riders on the V1 or Onewheel Plus Daystreak Leaderboard has heeded FM's recommendation to discontinue riding those models. Having logged over twelve thousand miles on each model in the past five years, I, personally, am very comfortable riding both.
Edit: One rider has now, indeed, ended their V1 Daystreak -- from Australia, Shagwell Wagstaff (formerly on the Leaderboards as Andre Danforth) abdicated #5, to be replaced by Diovyon of the United States. Whether ending the streak has anything to do with the recommendation referenced above is unclear, and may I say doubtful, as Shagwell Wagstaff currently holds #6 on the V1 distance Leaderboard with 9737 km logged.
-
I don't think I'll ever be bothering the top 5 but I have at least made it into the top 50 :)
-
@theadman haha nice one dood! I’m the same man, I just got to #100 on GT day streaks, my aim is to do 100 days as we going snowboarding at new year so will have to end then, wonder where I’ll be then lol….can’t see ever making super high on the GT but maybe a Pint that I could take on flights then could commit to riding every day!
-
@teddybeavis thanks, I'm aiming for the 100 days achievement too, which will leave me in the back end of November. From then who knows, the board is pretty addictive but I've not ridden it when it's below 10c yet.
Edit: I don't think they'll let you take the batteries on flights. -
@theadman haha yeah man I’m not sure how I’m gonna cope with the very low temps either, much prefer shorts and tee and blazing sun but gotta make do here in the UK I guess!
Yeah man apparently the original pint has small enough battery that it’s allowed on flights. Need to double check with the airline I guess but would be so awesome if so.
-
Another shake-up on the Leaderboard listing order of Onewheel models -- this time the two most popular models, GT and XR, are at the top. This way makes good sense to me.
-
I've cracked the top 40, let's see if I can complete 100 days before haptic buzz becomes available and mandatory for the XR, at which point I will just stop using FM app.
Smiles per hour.
