Tell me your weirdest Onewheel memory! I’ll go first.
I’ve gone trail riding completely naked under the full moon. 😏 🌚
My weirdest Onewheel memory was seeing this weird naked guy riding his Onewheel under the full moon
I’m waiting for the Nonewheel to drop… then I’m sailing across seas 🌊
As Peter would say: “Classic Jesse”
I’ve been wanting to do that since the V1!!! 😅
I have only one memory. Some stranger was onewheeling past me as I was biking and I shouted, “cool onewheel!” He replied, “thanks! Wanna try it?”
I don’t think I’ve ever spun around so quickly in my life. He let me ride it up and down the street for about 10 minutes.
I’m now looking to get one but can’t decide between the pint x and the gt. What do you like so much about the xr over the pint x? And would you opt for a gt over a pint x for your first board? Is that board size more comfortable to ride?
They can avoid the liability of injury easily due to modding. What they might have trouble with, is curbing the negative image associated due to injury. What FM should do, is focus away from C&D on 3rd party, embrace them, and then go after litigation that’s slowly creeping in to ban these on trails. Focus on educating and promoting them positively for the trail riders.
Too late, they decided to go with the extra strong pushback instead.
@@HuyTran-sk3py I can’t wait to try the GT and hope our speculation is wrong! I own both pint and XR and I agree, the pint pushback is horrendous.
Good to know that the GT has a non standard tire. I live in hawaii, and shipping my XR one wheel is probably like $300 there, and $300 back…. So that’s a phat “no go” for me 🤣 right to repair 100% 👊🏽
Yah that’s ridiculous! Same for shipping from Toronto. Seems absolutely bizarre to me a consumable item like a tire isn’t user replaceable.
Hopefully third-party vendors are able to come out with tires soon but that could take awhile it's a no-go for me as well based on that as well
I think for the vast majority the tire won't be an issue. By the time it needs replacing 3rd party tires will be available.
There are already 3rd party tires for the GT in the works.
#R2R
Future motion is asking for a lot of hassle if they make new boards un-repairable outside of their hands. Speaking from inside the PEV community, its best to let the people do what they do best, fix. From there you can progress your innovation tremendously quicker. Future motion has acted very Apple for years now and it has left a stain on their rep. A lot of this has to be the fact that they are not a Chinese company and have to deal with liability issues.
Also, nice Eevee's shirt with the V12. They sent me a V12 to show Toronto this past summer. I'll DM you when the crew is headed your way this coming summer 🤙🏻
I literally could not agree more about the XR. I have the original pint, put 800ish miles on it and was in a position to buy an XR. I still own both. 56 years old and I cannot imagine needing to "upgrade" to a gt or pintx. Long live my vintage onewheels!
The green screen back pack is epic.
I want a green screen like that now and am already in the shed looking for materials!
Sometimes I"m like... "Why does this filmmaker with a channel about making videos make videos about 1 wheels?" Then I scroll down and find no affiliate links for it. Maybe he just... likes them? Anyways, despite not being interested in 1 wheels I still watch them because you've got great style and you're a blast to watch. Thanks for the great videos no matter what you're making them about.
bc ppl shoot on one wheels rather than wasting thousands on dolly carts and save their budget. maybe learn how to ride one if you're so into filmmaking cuz tbh idk how anyone would get these long ass tracking shot one takes like i do without them.
@@SHVWNCOOPER Hey Shawn, thanks for the reply, I hadn't thought of that. Makes a lot of sense, I've used office chairs and skateboards and bicycles and everything else to get those sorts of shots... Anyways, I didn't mean to be negative, it was more pleasant surprise because so many videos's content on youtube seem driven by something they're trying to sell in the affiliate links below (which is also fair enough, if they're taking the time to make free content for the internet, power to them if they're able to make a living from it). So to see Jesse just talking about one wheels because he's passionate about them is cool. Thanks for the reply.- Eric
@@EricBates i will say this with bias bc i hate TH-camrs like jess'es friend peter - always advertising something we don't need, to ppl that can't afford it, from someone who didn't spend shit on it - that's telling you you need to use it from a "filmmakers" pov who aren't even really shooting or editing their own work. i kinda trust jesse's ingenuity. from a onewheel perspective - its def dangerous, however, it's priceless for what you can shoot with it. you can use skateboards, but then you're going to get a bounce in your shot. you can use a boosted board, but then you're not going to hop the curb on it and continue tracking your shot. i had to get one and learn how to ride and shoot on it in less than a week but i made an obstacle course on my roof and youtubed it. it's possible. overpriced, yes. i'd get one used IMO. but i'd def invest in one again.
Honestly one of the hardest parts about making a living on TH-cam (for me personally anyway!) is trying to do it in a way that isn't just telling people to buy shit they don't need. Particularly when I have a constant stream of companies sending me offers to promote products and it would be so much easier to just say yes and pretend it doesn't hurt anyone, but I can't do that! I won't pretend to be perfect in this area, and I'll still need to promote some products and services from time to time to pay the bills, but I hope that in general the tone of my channel never becomes "you need more more more".
@@JesseDriftwood I can imagine. Thanks for the personalized response, and all the great videos. Hope you find a balance between your integrity and paying the bills that you're comfortable with, I imagine it's a constant battle. Keep it up!
“You are my hero”😂😂 you have the best sponsorship segments Jesse. I love canva, and YOU
I'm *sooo GLAD* i ordered mine 3 days ago !
I've been wanting an XR for ages and learning that they're now getting discontinued makes me super grateful that i didn't miss out !
#BLESSED
If you cannot repair these things yourself they should at least expand with repair centres around the world.
Thats what I would love to see! Licensed repair centres.
💯 it's like a no brainer
Thanks for being so damn nice. That's a really big deal. Love your videos!
Jesse is the most underrated TH-cam Filmmaker.
The vast majority of litigation against FM (including the massive class action) is not at all related to 3rd party modified boards. It is brand new folks who get a Onewheel thinking it's a fun toy that anyone can ride out of the box and not a legit boardsport. They don't read the manual, ignore safety warnings, go 20+mph, skip their skull off the ground, and get seriously injured and/or die.
Oh you are definitely right about that! (apologies for not making that more clear). I feel terrible for those families but from what I've read about the situations I really don't think FM is at fault and I don't imagine they will lose the lawsuits. In general I hate how obsessed with lawsuits the culture in the US seems to be, and thats both coming from FM and towards FM.
I just hope so bad that they don't go the way of Boosted, but if lawsuits keep getting thrown at them for injuries I'm afraid that will happen.
@@JesseDriftwood 100% agreed. All we want is for FM to be successful and embrace the community that helped with that success.
Douche bags don't understand personal liability.
@@TheFloatLife I used to carry their business cards in my wallet and pass them around to people who showed interest in my board and tried it out. OneWheel needs to embrace their community because we are there for them. I feel like they have gotten a bit of a big head in the last year or so.
Still buying my first XR in 2023, super hyped, my pint is the most enjoyable thing I’ve ever owned.
The XR looked really fun and I thought "ya, I can do that!" so my husband talked me into one (because I hemmed and hawed about it). We got one about a month before the new one was announced, he's bitter about it because he really researched it and they said in all the videos he could find that it was "it" and no others were coming out. Well, I blew my knee out on the first weekend and it's his now. Oh well, you guys make it look so easy. BTW, my knee had a torn ACL from a long time ago so I don't know what I was thinking. LOL
I actually bought the XR during black Friday sale at the lower $1499 price. I still think it's better than the pint x. Sorry if that's not popular opinion 😆
Little do you know that was your husband's plan all along. Haha but in all seriousness I am super sorry to hear that you injured yourself. I always love to show strangers the board and let them ride it if they take interest. But I am always worried somebody is going to get hurt! If you can, don't give up on it! I know it's hard with an injury, but once you get the hang of it and as long as you respect it, they really are quite safe (assuming there isn't some super random failure or something). Anyway, hope you are feeling better and hopefully at least your husband is getting some shredding on it.
Thank you for making me feel even better about buying my xr in 2019. 2380 miles on the board since!
Honestly, the number one thing keeping me away from getting a one wheel is just how anti right to repair future motion is.
Buy a used XR and mod it. That way none of the money goes to FM
Wow your production and editing is absolutely first class
Woah! You're getting great at that V12 rather quickly! I'm glad you're getting good at it before doing a full review. Also, glad that sweater fits 👀. Looking good Jesse!
Also, thanks for speaking about right to repair. Cheers!
I want to make sure I have an actual informed opinion that isn't just "wow this is hard, one wheels are the best!!!" lol
@@JesseDriftwood I think that’s what most people come from Onewheeling originally think. I almost gave up my first week haha. I can’t wait to see the full review.
Funny story: I've been watching you for a while and on the verge of getting a OneWheel. Two months ago I had some extra cash and decided to go for it and bought an XR+, love it, but now I am kicking my ass for not having waited just a bit longer and buying the GT. Oh well.... I still love the XR!
The GT is overhyped in my view. XR is built better and more customizable
I JUST went and bought a new XR over a GT today. So don't feel bad. I think you lucked out. The GT honestly seems like a complete mess and this is coming from somebody who owns two OneWheels and they are my favorite things I've ever spent money on besides my Bed.
Excellent video as always! You've got me reminiscing about my XR like someone took it away, when really it's just downstairs as ready to go as always.
looking forward to your euc vid. wish you could try one with suspension, it was sorta game changer for me
I hope I get to at some point! Maybe a v13 will be the best of both worlds between the v11 and v12! Now that winter is here in Canada I don’t think I’ll get to do much PEV testing unfortunately, unless it’s a sweet fat bike or something.
@@JesseDriftwood some say the "V13" will likely be a bigger wheel & targeted to the hi speed enthusiasts. the V12 seems to be the best all around EUC to date & many of us would Love it to have suspension to make it the Ultimate 16" wheeled EUC
@@JesseDriftwood There are some EUC with offroad tires that are good for winter riding and some people do ride them year-round, like Veteran Sherman EUC has great water resistance and a knobby tire. Personally getting my ks 16x tire studded for the winter though.
Great video for those considering waiting for the GT to arrive in Australia "early to mid 2022" or grabbing the last of the XR's in stock. Thanks Jesse!
So good from beginning to end. Love how your pieces just feel complete. Great story telling as always✨💜
Big thanks for bringing more light to this #RightToRepair issue, and at least getting the conversation started!
This is the same as a car, everyone has the right to mod it and they're liable for things breaking or causing accidents. And insurance (in this case warranty) won't cover it if it's been opened. All future motion has to do is what every other manufacturer does, put a void sticker on a bolt and state warranty mileage, 2000 maybe? When the tire needs to be replaced.. or more if they're willing to work with shops that sell their board to offer a certified tire service
I have never ridden a Onewheel XR, but I have a GT and and a Pint. I really want to ride the XR on day.
I appreciate the reminder that I paid for Canva Pro for a reason and I need to use it more and for the lack of shoes in this video (not in a weird foot-thing kind of way...maybe should have left the last part out)
I LOVE riding my Onewheel in sandals. Although I can't say I ride often straight barefoot. Still get nervous though cause dropping in sandals is not ideal.
Stoked to see Christoph again! I just like knowing your gang is out east making different stuff happen and helpin each other out when it needed.
I love your videos!!! I am saving for a pint x because the XR is not here anymore😞 and the gt is way to expensive. keep making onewheel videos!!!
Hey Jesse, thanks for being you.
No, thank YOU!
Love your channel! I've been riding a Pint for a month, already modded it with a GT40mod, range is excellent, about 28 km in 12 C°.... but I bought a low milage XR today... I don't have much money to spend or something, I wanted to buy an other car (less old :D ), but whatever. You live once, OneWheel is more exciting than an other car. :D Hell yeah! :D
I’m coming up on 3,000 miles on my XR+ and still love it. Longer range and trail riding is definitely something I throughly enjoy and the 30+ miles with the CBXR battery and The extra 25 miles with a VNR Greenworks battery allows me to go all day! Its a blast! Can’t beat the miles of smiles of fun!
I feel like when the battery in this board dies I'll probably go the CBXR route, but honestly I'll want someone who's done it a few times to either walk me through, or do it for me.
*Also team "Right to repair"* 🤙🏼
I'll ride my XRs till I run out of parts to swap out. The growler set up is still my favorite trick board configuration, and WTF rails for trails. It would be interesting to see the aftermarket innovations to come out for the GT, but that would take a while to mature.
the Onewheel XR platform at this point probably wont die even if they discontinue it. Ive been in the RC hobby for years and even legendary RCs like the HPI Baja "which is a 5th scale and is considered a niche RC in a niche hobby" have STRONG aftermarket support because 1. Allot of people owned it and needed to eventually repair it and 2. pushing the boundaries.
That yellow onewheel looks awesome.
“Life is too short to be a d!ck to strangers” Well said Jesse and awesome video. Damn I want one of these.
Haha yes! It looks like it belongs on a construction site and I love it.
I completely agree Jesse
I have zero experience with onewheel, although they do look very fun. But I'm here to say out loud, "Love the intro, Jesse!"
The very best YT I have watched in 2021, old enough and should probably stick with 4 wheels but inspired by you every vid 🖖
Ah yes, the old “topic is now outdated” thing in the middle of an edit… Painful! Good video mate, and I agree!
I love the GT's range and speed but the steps that future motion is taking to make it harder for people to fix/repair their boards just so you have to over pay them for something you've already spent over £1k (or dollars) on is just insane to me, that's why I'm staying with my XR. (I know a lot of people will disagree but I like the squared off tire, I feel more stable)
I’m on the same boat.
@@shitalchaudhary5972 Yeah I'm keeping mine. Just because the GT came out doesn't make the XR obsolete.
Really awesome video! Enjoyed it👏🏼
The chaotic neutral of Jesse Driftwood is oddly satisfying to me.
I believe in #righttorepair. I own a xr and ordered the GT. I truly hope it's not so locked down we can fix them ourselves
same
I’m ocd and I appreciate your deeds from 4:38 to 4:40
I have 5500 miles on my XR. I absolutely love it. I got it when I was 48 I am now 52 do not get one of these. If you did not spend your youth like I did skateboarding and surfing, it’s not a matter of if you’re gonna fall is when you’re gonna fall…. To me I jump right back up and keep going. It’s a good life lesson in general to me is the best therapy in the world. Why are you ask if you want to be safe it requires your undivided attention you start to daydream it will bite you, so why ride my Onewheel for safety reasons lol the world goes away and I concentrate on what I’m doing with that being said this right to modify or write to fix to me is very simple just my opinion my two cents if you decide to take some thing that is incredibly dangerous and you choose to modify it in any way, shape or form you should be able to do so, but I would like to see laws implemented across the board that if you loosen one screw if you touch one wire future motion is not legally responsible for anything this way, the MacGyver us can do their thing and the rest of us can keep enjoying future products by future motion, not having to go out of business, because of people that somehow coordinate that writing something dangerous that they choose to do themselves somehow makes future motion responsible that just does not make sense in my world . Use your safety gear…. Keep your head on a swivel….. my stepfather taught me a great lesson when I started driving, he said” you do not look any better in a coffin if you had the right of way” 💯😉☝🏼🏁
I like my xr more than all the others too. I would say i like my gt more but it wont stop breaking so im just gonna put the GTV in it and if it breaks again ill just sell it cuz im over it
Hahaha love this! Your the best Jesse, just got a used XR and I love it, don’t care about the new models
Good choice!
Why are we putting products inside the tire ??
I want one, just scared ...lol ... riding skateboards from the 80s and 90s is not the same as the One Wheel ... at 45 years old I may break a hip or something :)
54 and need both my knees replaced, bought my XR on black friday and while I can not ride more than a couple of miles its a blast to just cruise around.
@@inactive67 I guess I’ll stop being a wuss and get one 😂
1:11 STOP IT!!!! 😂 😂 I am crying with laughter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
holy man I almost bought one of these from this video...
It's life changing!
@@chrisc790 I love mine but I did get a electric-unicycle and now I can ride 60-70 miles per charge. Now I love both, I do ride the onewheel alot less now.
Do it, it changed my life
The GT is more of a finished product and it looks great. I have to say I love the “garage built” look. I say the GT will do great in extreme terrains but then again it’s a bulky heavier board.
If this isn’t a t-shirt already, it really should be! “life’s too short to be a dick to strangers.”
Karma should treat you well Jesse .. so true to say people be nice to each other !
We should be aloud to repair our OW if we bought them, however, if an injury and/or death happens BECOUSE somebody modded a OW it shouldn't be on the compony, but the modder. Having a OW shouldn't feel like a rental, but more of what it is, something that you bought and own, therefore, something that you can do whatever you please with.
The intro was sick as hell. How many tries did that take?
Ditch those stock bumpers and get some bangs....trust me, you will love them!
Just bought a XR as an upgrade for my Pint. I like the upgradability.
I want to go road tripping far far away and be able to have all the spare parts necessary to fix anything that may happen which is why the people really into Onewheels always has more than 1 board for spare parts which is ridiculous in a sense. Not being able to bring a spare tire is just bs. It's really not so much to ask when all the board is put together with is hex bolts and barrel connectors
Watching this video and not having a one wheel. Tear. 😢😢😢
If you strike me down I shall only become more powerful!
only if you wear a helmet though!
Great Video! Props to the XR, couldn’t agree more.
And then .... the Onewheel ... was created by a Canadian !!
Keep up the great vids Jesse. Here a question, Where do you recommend I buy a used XR? ( if you can since they've been discontinued)😥
Listen all you strangers in these comments, if you are a fan of Jesse, as a rule of thumb i like you 😎🖤
So (hopefully) clearly the GT is just a gap filler, and the XR's (all good mod's incorporated) replacement is on it's way, ...with more power and more juice!
Jesse at 2:50 ish when you mention riding in the rain, did you ever waterproof your board or was that stock?
Well I still want one. I'd better hurry up and save harder😊
im definatly getting one in a couple years. i put 2k on my xr. miss it so much.
Wish I wasn't so poor been a dream to have one of these
you're gonna make me buy a onewheel dude
Next time you're in town I'll have to give you some lessons.
I wish you post more, but at the same time it would be a problem for me! everytime you post a video i HAVE to stop doing everything and watch it right away. Congrats mate!
I wish I did too! Let's see if I can get it up to 2 videos a month next year lol.
@@JesseDriftwood that would be awesome! We need more Jesse in our lives!
OneWheel XR with a CBXR battery is superior than the GT for one main reason. Because you can mod it and it won’t get bricked instantly. It won’t arrive dead. It won’t ghost on you. And it can go the same miles as the GT.
Isn’t that like 5 reasons? Haha
@@JesseDriftwood Yeah. There’s so many reasons I couldn’t make it just 1.
@@destruxandexploze2552 I should be getting my hands on a GT in the not so distant future, so I’ll be really curious to see how it goes.
@@JesseDriftwood I’ll subscribe in case that video ever comes
another awesome video, a peek into jessies brain.
Have you ever ridden an electric unicycle? We would love to get you on one and see what you think of it compared to a OneWheel!
maybe non related to the focus of the video, but my favorite line was "life is to short to just be a dick to strangers"... so true and so apt haha
I really dig the color of those rail guards. All I can find is fluorescent yellow guards, but that doesn't sound like the right color to me. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
The OneWheel community is so amazing and has the weirdest relationship I ever observed. They or we (I used to have one for 2 years, had to sell because of a move) absolutely love the board, but when it comes to FutureMotion the company, a lot of people can't stand them and some even hate them. I've never seen this kind of relationship before, but I kind of agree with it. The OneWheel is an absolutely amazing product, but the company behind it isn't one I would normally support and avoid at all cost. I'm still hoping there will be proper competition at some point, that's the best for consumers..
Thank god I just bought my first xr yesterday before they got sold out
Calling the XR obsolete is like calling an early 2000s car obsolete because the new model has a ton of new features that leave it in the dust.
But they both get you A to B, right?
They sure do! I’m still riding this yellow XR daily.
also, Have an XR right before they announced the GT I bought a Begode EXN do I want a GT yes but since I got the XR with same top speed the EXN is way better choice I think most onewheel riders will jump to EUC next more speed more distance more fun and right to repair
Lmao I literally paid for a gt 2 days ago it went obsolete that recently?
Edit: not obsolete, I meant discontinued*
Is there a diffrent buying a new xr vs a old one?
I Mean in build... Are they are just the same as one from 3 years old?
Beceaus I am gonne order one for sure! But I can buy also one from 2 years old with 115km on it.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Super dope video! This gonne be my 1st board but I am super stoked for the xr!
One wheel ain't no joke. U have to be fit n focused. U can't relax like on a e skateboard.
I think we may surprised how many guys that buy GT's decide to keep their XR's as a second board.
This is my plan.
This is my plan.
You’re definitely getting the GT who are we kidding lmao
haha I'm sure I will someday! It would be amazing of OW sent me one out to review, but they don't owe me anything. For now winter just started here and I won't have much use for a brand new expensive toy anyway, so if I do buy one it wouldn't be until better weather next year.
@@JesseDriftwood TO BE HONEST, I’m sure you’ve been a big reason behind many peoples purchases, (including me), Onewheel should def hook you up 😤
Great as always
I am pretty sure your 3k km board is a 4210 or older, you should get the CBXR battery upgrade and new bearings and you'll have a whole new board with GT specs but 10lbs lighter.
I think thats probably what I'll do when this battery dies out. It seems like its on its way out slowly right now but I'm going to leave it as long as possible :) I usually just bring the hyper charger with me on long rides just in case.
I’m a bigger guy so I can’t really fit on a pint and I dont have the money for a GT so I’m still going to get a XR
i just bought a new XR! and i love it!
You make me want a one wheel so bad.
I now wished I wouldn't have sold my xr to buy the GT
Hey when r u doing the gt review?
Dude you are awesome. Love you vib/ flow lol
Epic one jesse, love from kerala♥️
Even when I do eventually purchase a GT I will NEVER sell my XR.
You’re a cool dude. Thanks for sharing! 👏
You are Right. 👍
So Much 3rd Party Accessories for XR.
XR stiLL the King Of Onewheel
