I’ve not noticed my feet getting numb but they will get sore and start burning on long rides. The cure is to carve a lot and change your stance to ride the opposite way you normally do.

So I think I figured this out... I had the power mode set to medium power savings on my android phone, and did not realize it. I set it to high performance mode, and it seemed to record the whole ride just fine, without any dropouts that I noticed. Next time I'm going to try it on optimized and see if it still tracks well.

Fangs won’t save you from a high speed nose dive. I flew off at 21.2 mph last summer on my Plus and don’t want to experience that again. My board has 700+ miles on it now and I’ve noticed more surging and weird split second cutting out. I’ve ordered a two-X kit and it sounds like that’ll help out a lot with what I’m experiencing.

I’ve been riding a Plus for over a year and just got a Pint three days ago. To me the Pint feels more like a snowboard as it carves way, way easier. I took it on an 8 mile long ride and it was a joy. The Plus which is the same chassis as the XR is more stable and harder to carve. It’s better for higher speeds and carving at speed. The Pint doesn’t have as much top speed as it’ll start pushing back above 14 mph but I honestly didn’t feel like it was holding me back. Many times I just like to cruise and carve while listening to music. The Pint gets better range than my Plus and was able to go down my gravel road to the bike path without much trouble. I’d recommend a Pint as it features the simple stop dismount which I found to be super nice. Dismounting the board is almost always awkward and the Pint makes it much easier. It took me almost a year to get to the point where I wanted more range from my Plus and could ride it comfortably until it died. If you find you really like Onewheeling and want to upgrade, just wait until they release a 2nd generation of the XR. I think the current model is overpriced and it feels exactly like my Plus so it didn’t seem like a big upgrade for the money. I’m instead getting the 2-X kit for my Plus and that’ll give me the range I’m looking for.for the price of the new Pint with fender and the two-x kit I’m still money ahead compared to an XR. My family likes the feel of the Pint over the Plus. I’m glad I got to test ride both because I wasn’t considering a Pint initially.

Every once in a while I get a peek further down the Leaderboard rankings. Today, #19 on the Plus Daystreak has 26 days in, and with 32 days riding an XR someone has reached #209. A while back I had seen relatively new XR and Pint riders post mileage rankings in the 20,000's -- meaning that that many riders of those model Onewheels have more mileage than they do. All this data comes from random screenshots posted on the Onewheel Riders group on Facebook.

@WildmanXL That could be a cool option but a big concern would be keeping it sealed / clean.....

@SlinkyMan You should be fine. Give it a good overnight charge and ride it again the next day.

@blkwalnutgrwr looks hilarious too! I get so many looks when it rains, all smiles!!

Yeah, I love my XR. I mean it’s almost coming between my wife and I. I truly love this thing, but I shouldn’t have to guess if I’m about to face plant while cruising. This is one of the main reasons I got an OW in the first place. I love skateboarding but pebbles causing an abrupt stop suck. The big tire solves this but not knowing if I’m gonna get thrown is uncool. A simple audible beep along with pushback would solve the problem and make so many current and potential onewheelers feel so much more confident in their stoke!

@dsaisho -- Would you trade in a used car for a new one? Then sure, the benefit is the 'new' feeling!
