    How do you guys fight the pushback? IT dips so hard I feel like I'm going to tip over

    @Franky I've have it over a week. I'm trying .. Will the board fall if I lean to much? Because it feels like it might and the street isn't so forgiving lol

    @njcustom In my experience the board shuts down and you will go over the front (in extreme mode) if you lean too much. I was testing how fast the OW could go and I learned the hard way lol. But I did learned what I wanted and can now hover around max speed without going over the front (touch wood!). So mine is the idiot way of learning. Franky's way makes much more sense!

    @Nat I agree with you.. Falling will let you know your limits .. I just don't want to fall that fast lol

    Over time you start controlling more with your mind than your body. When you think you want to change speed, it happens, without visible physic changes. It is very intuitive, buth it takes some practice...

    @njcustom Try riding with sensors in back to push the speed threshold. Just be careful; I found +20mph to be too much for me to handle, personally.
