Thanks! Just completed my first ~10 miles having never ridden a board of any kind and your videos are really helping.

6miles in. Never skated or boarded in my life. Your videos are a lifesaver. Learned soo much. Thank you!!

Could a guy 65 years old and in pretty good shape learn to ride one of those things?

These are the best instructional one wheel videos. Has helped me improve my riding. Thanks Jake.

Dude, looks like this is 2 years old and it has just given me soo much insight (as well as going back to the foot placement video as you mention at the start of this vid). Had my Pint X just a few days and this is awesome thank you! Subscribed!

You’re welcome! Glad to help

Love the breakdown. As someone who has been riding for years with thousands of miles under me, I learn something new or think a different way after watching each of your videos. Love it. 🤘

EXACTLY!!!! This dude is a OW professor.

Loving these tutorials man! Thousands of miles in and still learning something new. Keep it up!

These are all advanced tactics but very much appreciated. Look forward to getting to this comfort level!

By far the best approach and most novel advice for riding the onewheel. Keep the videos coming!

This is the best onewheel tutorial I've seen on KZread. Thanks for creating this. I'd love to see more.

Dude, your videos have been the biggest help to me. Thank you so much for making them and taking the time to explain everything with great detail.

I really like the way you break down the body mechanics needed to make the board respond the way you want with minimal effort. I've been riding for a little over two weeks now and have started picking up on some of the points you laid out but having it explained so well really helps.

The nuance of hand movement is essential. Bravo for bringing it up!

I just started riding for the first time today and this advanced tutorial is certain to help sharpen my turns! Looking forward to receiving my GT in January to play with!

2nd video I've watched of yours, and learned more than the other 100 vids. Thanks. That trail riding looks really cool.

Tremendously helpful vid. Having no board experience, I had been turning by pushing my shoulder in the direction I wanted to go, as suggested in another vid. Even after 35 miles on my pint, turns still felt sketchy. Started using the knees/ankles per this vid, and turns instantly got so much easier, so much more fun, and so much less fatigue. THANK YOU!

I’m very new to riding my Onewheel XR. Both of your videos are very helpful!!! Please continue to support the community. Thanks again.

Thanks Jake. Good stuff. I'm developing my own technique. That shoulder drop for the tire side turn was a good suggestion. I'm going to have to try it.

You apply human body kinematics (limits of arm extension and lack of rotation in knee) and classical mechanics (comparisons of masses of body parts) to your explanation of one wheel control so well in this video. Bravo!

A new one wheeler here and I find this and your previous video extremely useful.

Excellent breakdown!!! Best explanation on KZread :)

Amazing. Some of these stuff I’ve been learning instinctively, but your videos always help me understand and grow faster.

Hey, brother, been skateboarding my whole life but I just picked up a Onehweel for the first time. Your vid’s have tons of great information, thank you for helping!

Dude this is an excellent breakdown and deep dive for new riders, nice work i learned a lot from this!

Damn! What an incredible tutorial. I would have never though it could be so in depth

Your shit is on fleek bro. You articulate what I wish I could to new riders. It took me almost 2K miles to realize much of what you are saying here...

Hi Jake, I am on my 4th ride of my new pint. I have learnt lots and really appreciate the time you took to produce these vids. Now I just need to develop some new muscle groups.

I love this video. Very clear. Fun to watch. Great audio. Thanks bro

Awesome video!! Such a great explanation of what not to do and what to do! I know I will definitely be using your tips the next time I ride! Thank you!!!

Well Done. Video is put together with a good structure that is clearly articulated verbally and visually

Dude thanks! The last video changed my stance forever! Excellent follow-up Sir.

even as a rider for over a year now, this is SUPER well-explained. i have to pay attention next time i ride and see how i'm doing!

Just got a pint a few days ago and have found turning heel side to be somewhat challenging. This was an awesome breakdown of what to do and be thinking of while I practice. Easy Subscribe!

Impressively good video. Extremely clear, scientific, and fun. Well done.

best video I've seen about riding a Onewheel. Nicely done.

great video with indepth explanations! I just completed my first ride. I did well and didnt fall but I know that I'll need to work on my heel toe turns. This video definitely helped. Im excited to get back out there.

4:34 you looks so dope, just floating in space. Awesome video, you went in deep on this one...mad technical! 💪🏿🔥🙏🏿

Great video. I've never skated before so learning the Onewheel is definitely tricky but also fun. 👌

Thanks. I'm riding for the first time tomorrow and these two videos will help a lot. Thanks

What a great video. Very well put together an simply explains the concepts for the one wheel.

This is great! Thanks for this video. I have been practicing carving lately and I can't wait to try this.

These videos are money! I used to teach snowboarding in Colorado and these make so much sense with biomechanics.

one of the best tutorials here, so far

Great video Jake! I am a newbie 73 miles with the Insite from this lesson I am twice as good at turning as I was the other day most FUN since my GT arrived last month Thanks

Great tips! Got myself a second hand XR yesterday and turning is one of the skills I'm least confident. Hopefuly your tips will help me to improve safely and efficiently! Subbed!

This guy needs a dang medal. Videos are A+.

I subbed after watching the foot placement video, but I also would have subbed after watching this one. Can't wait to put everything into practice!

I've been riding about 10 days, 24 total miles so far. I watched your videos on foot placement and this one on carving, and felt like my skill level doubled over night. I'd been trying to find a good foot placement but I don't know if I ever would have come up with your placement, which gives me incredible control. I'm nothing like an experienced rider, but I can carve and have fun now, before I was struggling to turn any kind of smooth at all.

Hey man, stuff like this just doesnt exist on the net yet and I found this super helpful. I had no issues doing toe turns but for the life of me couldnt really master the heel turn more than a light banking thats where you came in. This tutorial helped me manage tight carving which has given me the confidence to take this baby into tight CBD / urban environments without worrying about nailing pedestrians or cars. Thanks!

Glad to help out! I just started a weekly video series on The Float Life youtube channel. Every Tuesday at 10am we drop a new tutorial video!

Excellent video, Jake. Well done. Thank you!

I didn't listen to a word you said ..I just watched to see what was capable from these machines...thanks

You're awesome. Thanks for sharing great in-depth educational info.

excellent tuition Jake, thank you so much!

I certainly needed this. 20 miles in and finally getting comfortable with wide turns. Getting to tighten turns now. Offroad not so good yet.

You make it look so easy lol. I’ve been riding for a few years with about 200 miles on my Pint and I still have a time with sharp turns.

Worthy of many viewings! Thank you!

This is excellent. Super helpful for this new one wheeler

Just bought the Jake Leary edition float plates. Thank you for your inspiration.

Wow, as an old phart I am still debating whether to get one of these, but your instructions are great

Awesome video! Gotta try to retrain myself to use these concepts.

This is GOLDEN! Love the info.... Thank you!

This actually helped out quite a bit. Thank you.

Thank u this is perfect I have been struggling with right heel turns

Great video man. Subscribed. 2 days on my onewheel so far and its tough. I thought it would be easy after 0000s miles on electric longboards.

dude thanks for the tips. this helpss alott. honestly best video about carving :D

thanks for these exellent instructions..... great keep it up

Awesome breakdown 👍, it's almost like surfing.

Thanks for sharing, my XR should be here by 8 June!! Float on!!! Gary

2 great videos back to back earns you a subscriber! And you ride goofy...now I don't feel weird. 😆

Excellent core skills to learn how to ride the OneWheel properly!

Super helpful! Thanks for making these.

Amazing videos! I wish I had found them Sooner!!!!

Great video. Well done, sir! 👍

For that last tip I remember reading somewhere that a certain kind of surfers from Hawaii used to hold small rocks while they surfed as counterweights. It gave them more control and flexibility while riding, because like you said... arms are light. Adding as little as a fee ounces or a single pound to the end of an outstretched arm can make a difference. I just thought it was cool and this video reminded me of that.

super good breakdown, thanks dude

Incredibly well done video. thanks sir!

Excellent advice. Thanks!

Excellent tutorial I use the weighting and unweighting method in my turns where you bend knees and let body weight fall down into the turn then push up with knees coming out of the turn along with bit if hip twist the technique comes from surf skateboarding.

How do you only have 2k subscribers?! You should have 200k! Your videos are all so helpful for us newbs

Very good video! Surely would have saved me a couple of falls if I had seen it before!

This is fantastic info! Thank you!

Dude..... I have been struggling with my Onewheel so much and you just helped me so much. You should do a video on how to dial the app settings if you have not already as this also made a huge difference in helping me learn. I went custom and changed stuff to slowest speed and least carve to start. Way easier to start off with. THANK GOD I AM NOT AFRAID OF IT ANY MORE. I seriously thought I was going to have to sell it. I was bummed out bro. THANK YOU.

really helpful indeed, thank you so much

Thank u! Great break down.

You explained this very well

Great Job!

Cheers, great video 😉

Great vid thanks man!

Super useful. Thanks.

Lean shoulder into heel turns, thank you!!!!

I just got my onewheel two days ago. Already addicted. I have been snowboarding for 15 years (just 1 or 2 weeks per year on Holliday, no pro here). I find the heelside carving turns to be much more difficult compared to boarding, maybe it is because the feet are not attached to the board? Btw you are a natural ay explaining this, very great to watch, learnt a lot. And this is coming from a fellow creator.

@JakeLeary

Thanks! Yes the heel turns are more difficult because you have to use body weight, lifting up your toes will just peel your toes off the board. But you are able to jump off the board if you need to bail!

I like it. Great videos...

Clear and detailed.
