Onewheel + unboxing and Review!

[enjoi408]

Looks like they have completely redone the app. Looks closer to what Boosted app looks like according to the picture. Hopefully the app is approved soon!

I gotta tell you, I'm so glad I waited to jump on the "electric movables" train until now. About a year ago I almost pulled the trigger on a hover board but watching the YouTube videos those things look awkward and are a recipe for a fractured tailbone or concussion. Everything about the OW+ looks more fun and "natural." Can't wait!

Wonder how long Android users will have to wait this time?

Yes

[JayWhy]

@Aaron-Broward-FL Yes is quite a broad answer ;-)

[groovyruvy]

@JayWhy a newbie probably won't notice any difference between a + and the Original, assuming it's more just-getting-started-type riding of the more basic, slower speed variety. The real differences between the boards grow more pronounced the faster and harder you ride. The + has smoother more powerful acceleration, a higher top speed (hard to hit pushback even when you're flying), more stability / better able to stay level at higher speeds (less nosediving) and overall better performance. But you won't really feel those differences until you start moving past beginner-level riding.

[JayWhy]

@groovyruvy thanks man! Some of the other early feedback posts were that the added smoothness makes it easier to jump on and go than the original. Soooo ready float

@JayWhy I would agree

[jeffmccosker]

@JayWhy this is correct. The plus feels way more beginner friendly.

Except

[groovyruvy]

@JayWhy Ok yes, I'll revise my comment as you're right, it is more stable- it feels more stable- hence more beginner friendly. But really IMO it doesn't take too get long to get used to basic riding on either board.

Shonduras did a review of the onewheel Plus

[jew_fro_1009]

i believe at this point its too early for a review i want to talk to someone who has put more than 300 on a plus

[enjoi408]

@jew_fro_1009 If that's the case, they you'll need to talk to ElectricHippy since he's number 1 on the Onewheel Plus Mileage Leadership Boards. But then again, he's only got 232 miles.

[jew_fro_1009]

man to me i really didn't fully know everything about till i hit 1,000 anyone else fell that way

[Snurfer]

Thanks for the heads up @enjoi408 . My takeaways from Shonduras review....The plus looks a lot faster than the original. The side by side races were interesting! The lack of pushback looks awesome.

It looks pretty durable based on the tumble the plus took down the stairs! How funny (terrifying) would it have been if it started knocking and stopped working after that.
