    Lots of fun!! However, it should be noted that this is challenging to ride. It is not self balancing... requires balance. But, this adds to the fun.

    There was an issue with my board. I tried calling Future Motion customer service, but they weren't too helpful. They asked me to send it to them for warranty work. Instead, I just returned it and got my money back. As for the reason for the will ... I was thrown off going pretty fast.

    I bought this because I love snowboarding, but being on the east coast my trips to Colorado have been limited. The technology is amazing and I am glad best buy started carrying these, Awesome product...worth every penny!

    It really is THAT great

    I waited for two weeks before I wrote this review so I could have a decent amount of time for a fair review. Let me get one thing out of the way. This board is dangerous but so is skateboarding and driving cars so you assume risk everyday really. If you were on the fence because it looks dangerous, it is, but dont let that stop you. Now, on to the review. With the Onewheel you get an amazing riding experience. Lean forward to go forward and lean backward to stop not unlike a Segway Mini Pro. I prefer the skateboarding riding stance to the Segway Mini pro face forward stance. I always felt off-balance in that stance. I was initially afraid that the learning curve would be too steep. I was wrong. I have experience skateboarding, skiing, rollerblading, and quads and I was able to pick it up quick. That said I did wipe out a couple of times due to a nosedive. A nosedive is what happens when you're travelling at speed and you lift your front foot slightly which disengages the pressure sensor and thus causing the Onewheel to think youre done and want to get off. The Onewheel's nose pitches down and throws you onto the ground. Yes, it hurts. It makes you a little gun shy about the next ride but nosedives happen rarely and you really have to be flying for it to catch you off-guard. One of the greatest things about the Onewheel is that it can handle any terrain! Its basically one huge rubber tire so gravel, grass, pavement, sand, mulch, and dirt are fine to ride on. It can cruise right at 10MPH and bursts to 15MPH. It should also be noted that the upgraded Onewheel will be available soon and it has a top speed of 19MPH! Best Buy will match the manufacturers site price for this generation Onewheel to $1299.00 if you're interested in buying a gen 1 (listed here for $1499.99) and don't need the features of the gen 2. The Onewheel is 100% USA Made and built like a tank! It can take anything you throw at it. The front and rear bumpers are replaceable as the are wearable parts. The grip tape sensor pads are also replaceable. I have been having a blast riding this board. Just remember to wear your helmet and I strongly recommend gloves. (nosedives are rough on your hands) The Onewheel is a nice glimpse into the future. The price of admission is high but nothing of high-quality, cutting-edge, USA made, is ever cheap and once you own one for yourself, you will fully appreciate the fit and finish of this product.

    Goes everywhere

    Evaluated electric boards and rideables before discovering Onewheel. The main challenge they face is small wheels. This doesnt seem important at first until you realize that even most road surfaces and sidewalks aren't very friendly to small wheels. But what surprised me was seeing Youtube videos of how people ride this on a variety of terrains from beach to single tracks. I've had a chance to try this on the beach and in parks. And importantly going through puddles...something most boards warn you to avoid. I think of the OW as a mountainbike vs most rideables (electric skateboards or hoverboards) which are road bikes. You simply have more fun options on the OW.

    Fun to ride...but not worth that price

    It's a fun ride. Goes over grass/dirt. Good battery life. Good quality components. Learning curve isn't bad at all. However; the price is outrageous for what you get. You cannot change your own tire if you ever need to. You have to send it to their shop for $99 to have the tire replaced. For this much $, you can purchase an awesome bike or other things like a Segway etc. it's a cool board but just not worth $1500. It would be a cool purchase at under $1000. I returned it after a week.

    This thing is awesome. The videos online are real. Carves everywhere. Extreme mode is the best. If I am around it I have to ride it and if I don't my friends will be riding it. They need their own.

    I bought my husband one of these boards for our anniversary last month and we can't get enough of it. I am going to have to get my own to avoid fighting over who gets to ride! I know what I am getting for my birthday this year ;)
