Honestly I've been struggling with this, every time I go over a bump I feel like I just roll over it. I'll be sure to keep this in mind on my next attempts! Thanks for the video ☺️
I tried to bonk on some decent sized pebbles, the first one was good, the second rock I tried was pretty big and it rolled under me after I got air and landed on it and the board flopped sideways… was super fun lol
@Florida Float Brothers my husband, Derek Wilson, recommend your channel and I ❤️ your content. it really helped when I first started and even now. no worries on a reply! look forward to the next video. cheers!
Thank you for the videos! I am a new subscriber and have just hit 60 miles on my pint! Keep the tutorials coming. Even some more basic stuff is appreciated. 👍🤙👌
You're welcome man! I recently hit 500 miles but I remember those first 100 like it was yesterday. We definitely will keep the tutorials coming! Anything in specific you are looking to learn more about? We might do a video on the basics of carving soon. 🤙 Welcome to the onewheel community!
Thanks so much for taking the time to create this video, really helpful. How do "Fangs" affect how you would do this? Also for general carving on a PINT do flight fins make a difference?
We're glad it was helpful! The fangs shouldn't make a difference unless you're trying to bonk really high bumps. Also, if the fangs happen to touch the bump during the bonk motion there should not really be any issues becuse the fangs will just continue to roll forward and won't stop your forward momentum. When it comes to FlightFins, they definitely lock your feet in so that you can carve harder and it feels more stable/secure.
awesome! i've never been interested in "tricks" but like doing stuff that has utility like nudges. Bonks is in that category too. is there a minimum speed?
Question about your Flight Fins.. is there a downside to those? I took a hard nose dive about a week ago and am wondering if it would have been worst with some fins. Or is there an advantage to them that I'm not seeing? Great video by the way!
Subscribed..I really like your content! got my Pint yesterday, my first Onewheel..so far I love it, only a slightly hyper extended knee on my first crash 😜
Nice vid, I've gotta learn this as the only time I ever fall on my pint is when I'm hitting a aggressive curb. Where about in Florida are you from? I'm around the Tampa Clearwater area.
Very happy with these tips, greatly appreciate this content..can u do the same with a pint if it has flightfins?, thanks for sharing float life content 👍🏼
Yes jump, because I bended my knees and pushed my front foot down like he said and got thrown off the board and almost injured my foot. Didn’t realize I was suppose to jump.
We typically look slightly forward at the ground ahead. This way we can spot how close the bump is to time the bonk better. This also let's us spot the landing when in air.
I did not notice much of a difference at all between the stock Vega and stock pint tire (my Vega had about 500 miles on it at the time so it was slightly rounded though)
Dirt road in the twilight, woods so cool and dark. Up ahead pale neon, somewhere a dog barks, Honky tonk moon, keeps shining on my baby and me 😂 Probably the first time I've been told I resemble a young version of him
Look AND sound like a young RT. I hope you’re not offended. It’s a compliment. That dude was awesome and his music a legacy. Thanks for the helpful video too!
We grew up doing all types of board sports and have put a couple hundred miles on our onewheels each, so don't get discouraged. It just takes some time and a lot of practice 🤙 you can do it!
Unfortunately sometime in the last year they discontinued selling that specific parking block. If we discover a better one we'll let you know. A large 2x4 would be the cheapest option
@@westcoast.landpirate3788 You were the first bonk I ever saw, and have the highest bonk I've ever seen (pure and without Flight Fins). I have MAD respect for you and what you can do one a onewheel!
Mad respect 🤙 I started that way, and wish I had had more time to take the fins off for the video, but man fins make them more fun (in my opinion) I love that locked in feeling being able to add extra height to the pop that the bonk already gives

You're awesome! Happy for you 🤙
*More Float Wife please!* --- great vid thanks!
I'll let her know she's been requested for more videos haha

More vids! I ❤ your vids the most out of any ow vlogger.
Thanks Mel! We have a lot in store for 2022

@@FloridaFloatBrothers I like carving the best. The tricks are great too though! I can already jump mount my pint.👍🤙
No way!! I live right next to that church! Hope to ride together sometime 😉🤙🏻
Great video! Broke down the move and provided some great insights. Nice work!
Thanks man! 🤙
great content as always! and nice to meet the "float wife" 👍
Thanks! And she's the best! Super grateful for how supportive she is of me and my floating passion 😂
I saw some Titusville landmarks on there, cool! I’m in Cocoa Beach.
This video is great! I'm tempted to go do some bonking!
Thanks Jimmy! I would love to see that! Just be safe!
Grab to see you are not adverse to the bonks ;)
@@quangyung6751 if it can be done relatively safely, I'm down.
That drove me Bonkers! Lol cant wait to try
😂🤙 Haha that's great!
Haha awesome vid, you two are great together.
I really like this video! Great content, nice flow and nice hosting. Also I did learn what that brain bucket is named. Very educational.

Lol why would fangs make a difference
That fall looked epic lol
awesome! i've never been interested in "tricks" but like doing stuff that has utility like nudges. Bonks is in that category too. is there a minimum speed?
That can depend on the size of the bump,but for super small bumps you can roll up super slow and just do that "snap" right before you hit the bump
Give me bonk 3 mr sulu
Simple and clear. Thank you.
Good awesome tips FFB ....keep it up. As soon you reach the bump, do the 1-2 punch like boxing. 1-2 in this is push down and jump.
Yeah man! That's a good way to look at it. I wish I had broken this part down a little more in the video
Loved you two!!! Super cool
Thanks man! 🤙
thanks.....only had my XR for a month....maybe later....
Did an accidental Bonk while offroading, almost nosedived because of an about 6 cm high rock.
The Bonk really saved me, I wasn't slow!!

Central Florida, just a few hours from there 🤙
*I’m bonking all day today...thanks.*
Heck yeah 🤙 stay safe and enjoy that airtime ☁️
Nice vid man!
Thanks! 🤙
fantastic tutorial!
Awesome vid! Do you think type of tire matters? Seen yours has treads
Thanks! We're actually using stock tires in this video but we don't feel the type of tire make much of a difference
Teach me how to bonk on that Float Wife. Yeeeeee!
Happy float wife, happy float life
Very happy with these tips, greatly appreciate this content..can u do the same with a pint if it has flightfins?, thanks for sharing float life content 👍🏼
Zach - where did you get your flight fins for your XR?
Flightfins.com
Such a cool company!
Hey Zach, does the tire pressure make a difference for bonking? Should it be fairly low and bouncy?
We've found that Lower tire pressure makes it harder to get pop/height because it absorbs more
Great video.
Thanks man! Means a lot!
How uh... how does one keep their feet on the footpads while airborne?
What confuses me is do you have to jump or not for the success? Because my OW never takes it off the ground regardless of the speed.
Yes jump, because I bended my knees and pushed my front foot down like he said and got thrown off the board and almost injured my foot. Didn’t realize I was suppose to jump.
When bonking, where should I be looking? Forward or at my feet?
We typically look slightly forward at the ground ahead. This way we can spot how close the bump is to time the bonk better. This also let's us spot the landing when in air.
Awesome thanks
Can this be done on a Pint without flight fins???
Absolutely! Unfortunately, on the day we recorded this I didn't have much time with the pint. 0:15 and 0:51 are two small examples
Get dat Ba-Bonk-a-Bonk! 🍑😆
Hmmm so if I bump the bonk that I bump on, I’ll jump the bump i bonked over to successfully bonk the bump with a jump 😊
Thanks awesome vid
Pretty much a small Nollie (Nose Ollie) in skateboarding.
This video title could be a tutorial on multiple endeavors lol
Float wife pretty! Great tute thanks.
harder to bonk on the pint cause of the rounded wheels? or same as xr?
I did not notice much of a difference at all between the stock Vega and stock pint tire (my Vega had about 500 miles on it at the time so it was slightly rounded though)
Accidentally hit a bonk on a road reflector on my first day. Very scary
When he said sticking with our day jobs...
I felt dat...
When you partner with the smart kid in class
I didn’t see any bonking on the pint with out the flight fins
Young Randy Travis teaching people how to bonk.
You sing honky bonk moon?
Dirt road in the twilight, woods so cool and dark.
Up ahead pale neon, somewhere a dog barks,
Honky tonk moon, keeps shining on my baby and me

That curb was tinny for the box haha
Sick
i’ve tryed this so many times on the pint it’s so hard
We grew up doing all types of board sports and have put a couple hundred miles on our onewheels each, so don't get discouraged. It just takes some time and a lot of practice 🤙 you can do it!
Florida Float Brothers i’m trying i will post it and tag u guys when i get it i already have 150 miles on my board
@@colbyottati9921 Awesome! Can't wait to see it!
BONK
BONK
what happens to you guys! haven’t seen you around on youtube
Today’s the day! We have a lot planned for 2022 🤙
Your link goes to some other parking thingy that is not useful
Unfortunately sometime in the last year they discontinued selling that specific parking block. If we discover a better one we'll let you know. A large 2x4 would be the cheapest option
So kind of the same motion as a nollie
Absolutely, feels pretty similar
It sounds like essentially a skateboard nollie.
The motion feels a little closer to a Chinese nollie (crack Ollie)
*for me de weighting the board and bonking over those freakin' driveway speed bumps is more about avoiding a crash!*
I know the feeling 😂 my driveway has an intense dip/bump that forced me pretty early on to figure out how to "not fall"
is this doable on a v1?
There were two people on reddit saying the motor on the V1 makes it more difficult but I'm not sure. If I ever get to try a V1 I'll get back to you
First ever bonks were done on a V1.
@@westcoast.landpirate3788 You were the first bonk I ever saw, and have the highest bonk I've ever seen (pure and without Flight Fins). I have MAD respect for you and what you can do one a onewheel!
@@FloridaFloatBrothers Thanks dude. No better feeling than a perfect Bonk.
I need it
Yep, this never, ever sounded like a euphemism. Not at all.
that called China ollie in skate board world
Yup! 🤙
It’s not a bonk if you have flightfins on lol that’s just a jump
Ima need a NASCAR suit frfr. Ima hurt #NOOBSELF frfr!
Why is she here? Is this your idea of a date?
I do it without flight fins lol
Mad respect 🤙 I started that way, and wish I had had more time to take the fins off for the video, but man fins make them more fun (in my opinion) I love that locked in feeling being able to add extra height to the pop that the bonk already gives
Sorry but this is self explanatory + this skill is unlockable if you buy fins. LOL In other words just ride the board and you'll learn this naturally.
Ugh
I bet he’s “bonking” her
