@Rado I see. That’s good. I plan to test and reuse them in new packs.

If you ride on some low-traction surface like loose sand, you can get a nosedive to happen at lower speed due to loss of traction. I’ve always been able to just hop off and stay upright, doing this on sand is good to practice for pavement nosedives.

@owpete Sorry, can't help you with that. Mine is an Iphone.

@Stay_in_school @kd6tav @readysetawesome The "classic" test is to have someone push you from behind while you're standing. The foot which you instinctively step with forward with first is your dominant foot.... The other test is if you were to run and slide on ice or a wood floor, you do that with your feet in riding position; meaning that's the foot orientation you should stand on the board. I'm terrible at riding switch (dominant foot in the front) but the majority skilled riders are great at it. Helps with 180's, trails, balance, etc... some folks even ride to work one way and ride home the other or do 100 miles in each then switch. Easy way to find out how you prefer to ride is to try. Just make sure the front pad (sensors) ends up towards the direction you are going so your back foot has a little more freedom to move.

@wheelrich I treat it like my phone... never left in the car in the summer or the winter. Glad to hear your OW still working well!

It depends a ton on terrain and riding style. I am 215 and got 12.1 miles on mostly pavement with 14% left in one direction to work. Top speed was around 15 mph. The other way, while it was warmer in the morning, it was more stop and go, and 12.3 miles and I almost had to walk-of-shame it the last 200 yards due to dead battery. It nosed up and I had to reset it and sit awhile then rode the last 200 yards. I think I was in mission at the time. I get that sensor error sometimes too, but I am hoping it's my hiking style shoes causing my toes to lift as I lean. I also have had a couple nose dives, but it has been my fault- leaning too far forward on an uphill and ignoring (didn't realize what it was in time) the very brief pushback. The heavier you are, the easier it is to shift enough weight forward to overpower the wheel and eat pavement. Be careful, take your time, carve and have fun!
