I'll throw another idea out there for you. Start your Onewheel journey by switching stances from time to time and you will learn both ways. Great for tricks as well.

I know I can't but if your son hits anything at that speed, In my line of work, we call that a "Trauma Alert" or a "Code".

Here is my new rear foot pad. I still have a little more to do to it. Its almost an inch longer with a tapered tail and a 1/2 inch wider. I have another idea to possibly add some weight to the tail by screwing some lead to the underside so when at speed, it woulld take a little more front foot pressure to accelerate. I believe I would actually see higher cruising and top speeds as a result.

Edit: I have also added 1/2 inch orange rubber gasket under the deck with gorilla glue spray adhesive.

Pete, please get the Sumo suit and get someone to video your ride. I want to see it, lol
On a more serious note, as others have said, there are limits to all three versions of our board. I have nose dived several times because it was my fault, being careless. It's about learning your board, your riding stance and getting to your top comfort speed, if that makes sense. Having a heavy front foot will surely result in nosedives. It's that teetor totter foot pressure that people need to work on. If you want fangs for piece of mind, go for it. I don't see a need for them. I just made a rear foot pad the other day out of wood with about an inch and a half more length, sort of like the "Craft and Ride" deck. I am getting a better stance and higher cruising speed as a result.

The screws are 1/2 inch #10- 32 stainless hex screws. I know this because I just made a custom rear deck and swapped them out at Home Depot. Get them online, should be pretty cheap too. Don't buy over priced screws. Should only cost a couple bucks.

I just logged in after a long hiatus from the forum and I see this. That is one heck of an upgrade right there. I may consider this in the near future. Good work!

@gwinntanamo No, I've run the stock Vega, a 6 inch Hoosier slick and now two Hoosier 6.5 treads.

@desperado I've run the Hoosier 11x6.0x6 slick in a 10 compound I believe? Oh, it was crazy maneuverable but the tire wore out at 528 miles.
The 11x6.5x6 is my "Go To" tire now. It shines around 7 to 10 mph for turns but I still carve turns between 10 to 15, just not as sharp.
I will never go back to the Vega, the Hoosier makes the board into a short board type onewheel if that makes sense. D30A from either Jegs or Smiley's racing online.

Hey guys, haven't posted in awhile, been riding. I just replaced my Hoosier 11x6.5x6 the other day with 1990 miles on it. Saw threads and she gave out a couple days later while charging overnight. The reason I'm posting is that I wanted to let everyone know that I ran that tire at 15 psi and never had rubbing issues.
I mounted the same tire the other day and I'm running it at 17 psi and I can hear a very minor rub but that will go away in about another week.

Man that's weird. I had a hot/cold issue where the board would be unresponsive after coming to a stop. They emailed me a label and I sent it off. Controller module issue, resolved. Rides fine now. They will get you fixed up Nick
