@Aaron-Broward-FL PA is just about 3000 miles away... maybe not! But I'm fully prepared for it to be my favourite thing, too!

@westcoastr did u use mine tho?

@westcoastr yea id go local. When I calculated the cost of the board into CAD and then added tax, duties, and shipping it would have cost just roughly 2600 after it was all said and done. When I bought retail it came down to 2200. Theres a few located close to you and I believe one or two on the island. Give them a call and ask them how much they sell them for. If they sell for more then make the trip to Edmonton and buy one here.
-
@Mussaix Sorry, no... I know you're working hard on it!
-
@juts Paying tax twice makes ordering less attractive for sure. My local guy charges $2100; somehow it just feels over the top... I'm sure all the retailers are similar.

@westcoastr yea its expensive for us but I find it worth it. Still saves us money and until our dollar gets on par with american its the best way to go.
-
@juts Got it! I came home and there it was waiting for me - surprise! Obviously, bought locally. Woot! Unfortunately, it's pouring rain today...

@westcoastr awesome! It's the coolest shit ever! Go elevated or extreme. Take it easy.
-
@westcoastr awsome man, I'm stoked for you. I was so excited when I got mine that I would have ridden in a hail storm! Have fun on that thing and welcome to the community.
-
@donny-h @Santoki Thanks, I've been thinking about OW for the past year, so it's great to finally get one! The rain finally stopped and I've been out twice already; feeling it a little in my feet and calves, but ready for more!

@westcoastr also if you can get a good shot, hit up the sea to sky highway and squamish. Gotta be some great shots along there
-
@westcoastr yea I think my feet, legs, and hips have gotten stronger in the last couple of months since getting the onewheel. My wife and I ride so much that we are always sore. I'd recommend getting a fender if you haven't already. My wife's board has one and it still looks absolutely new even though we ride in pretty wet conditions. I'm waiting for one of "njcustoms" badass carbon fiber fenders now!
-
@juts Yeah, there would be tons of amazing places to ride up there. Great goal for the summer!
-
@donny-h I had such a good ride today... Feeling tired and really happy! Good advice about the fender; lots of debris on the board from the wet streets yesterday.

@westcoastr Its definitely one of my goals. Im going to try for Van, Van Island and Rupert this summer to get some shots. Rupert will be touch and go because of all the rain they get but heres hoping
