XR is a week away from shipping and I am super stoked to add my XR Ready Float Plates in nasty hott pink > http://thefloat.life/product-category/float-plates/
Merci tartopom.
Je vais essayer d’etre Relax, de ne pas trop prendre de vitesse, et de garder mon centre de gravité au dessus de la roue.
Après pour tourner, j’ai l’impression que c’est un peu comme en snowboard lorsque que l’on va chercher les quarts en regardant où l’on veut aller.
Une chose m’angoisse un peu, c’est le fameux pushback !
Est-ce que c’est une légère accélération ou décélération ?
Arrivez-vous à bien le sentir et à gérer ce pushback ?

@Solemero didn't cost me anything, I don't know what was fixed but it was taken care of under the warranty and I'm very pleased with my experience with FM customer service.
For anyone else finding this later - Support emailed me after 11 days, and then service got really fast. In my case the "on hold" was due to a problem with delivering to my address, but we managed to work that out and now I got my board.
So, slow initial response, but then fast followup as soon as the dialog had started.
For anyone else living in Scandinavia, it might be faster/easier to order a board from one of the local dealers (turns out there are a few in Denmark and Sweden).
As for the board... F¤#"¤# awesome :)

Yeah it's well done and doesn't require you to hear it, making it great when you are listening to music or in traffic.
Careful with the water on your XR... water damage highlighted in the manual. Recommend you wait before charging at the least if you are exposing the board to water.
This has all been suggested many time before. I'll probably sound like a broken record but I don't care: riding technique and foot position are sufficient to avoid most nosedives, rather than trying to make the board smarter (which actually adds software complexity that makes the board less awesome).
Set your feet farther back, so your front foot's heel is closer by the wheel, and your rear foot is almost at the back edge.
Go more slowly up hills
do a half-hop aka "get light" when you go over a pothole or a large bump
I used to nosedive all the time, I used to blame the board and it's design. Then I started doing these 3 things ^^^ and realized I'd be fine.
