Different Terrain You Can Ride On A Onewheel

June 23, 2019 by Ben Domaschenz

One of the great things about the Onewheel is how diverse it is when it comes to its abilities to tackle just about any terrain. There are so many different types of terrain you can ride on a Onewheel. Whether it is just cruising around town on smooth pavement or crushing your favorite single track, the Onewheel really is an all-terrain vehicle.Different Terrain You Can Ride On A Onewheel

There Are So Many Different Terrains You Can Ride On A Onewheel

Let’s take a closer look at the different terrains you can ride on a Onewheel along with the different accessories, tips and tricks that will make tackling your preferred terrain that little bit easier.

List Of Terrain You Can Ride On A Onewheel

  • Pavement
  • Dirt Trails
  • Single Track
  • Grass
  • Beach/Sand
  • Snow

Riding Grass on a Onewheel

Riding grass on a Onewheel is smooth like butter. The reduced friction on the wheel makes grass the perfect spot for learning those sweet 180 transitions.

Grass is one of the first terrains most people choose when learning to ride a Onewheel. However, the additional power needed to ride on grass can quickly overload the boards motor leading to an inevitable nosedive.

Riding Pavement On a Onewheel

For the speed demons out there, riding your Onewheel on the pavement is where it’s at. Carving the streets on a Onewheel, locked in securely with rubber to pavement gives you a huge amount of confidence.

Riding Dirt Trails On a Onewheel

Dirt Trails are my favorite Onewheel riding terrain to explore. Zipping around fallen trees and bouncing over ruts keeps my adrenaline pumping. A Onewheel tire upgrade is a high priority if you spend most of your time on gravel and dirt trails.

Riding Single Track On a Onewheel

Single track is another one of my favorite Onewheel Terrains. While it is not a carvers paradise, riding single track is a great way to explore all those lesser traveled trails, you never know where your Onewheel exploration will take you. Riding single track is a real leg burner, the burmed sides will give your ankles and calves an extreme workout.

Riding Beach Sand On a Onewheel

Many Onewheel riders enjoy taking their Float game to the beach. Carving lines in the sand on their one-wheeled land surfboard. Fair warning though, Onewheels are not waterproof so stay out of the water and the salt corrosion will shorten the life of your board.

Riding Through Snow On a Onewheel

For those Northerner’s longing to Onewheel during those long winter months, riding through snow is possible on a Onewheel. The slipperiness of snow is a great way to strengthen your balance and quicken your reaction time. Just remember that without some type of waterproofing, your Onewheel will be susceptible to water damage.

Onewheel Terrain Tips

  • When riding grass on a Onewheel; keep your knees bent and weight low to help be prepared for hidden bumps.
  • When riding pavement on a Onewheel; remember to check your speed and stay within the board’s abilities.
  • When riding dirt trails on a Onewheel; lower tire pressures will give you a huge increase in traction to prevent slipping out on your carves.
  • When riding single track on a Onewheel; for less stress on your ankles keep carving to a minimum.
  • When riding your Onewheel on the beach or in the sand, make sure you use a charge port plug and rocker switch protector. This will save you some headache and prevent sand from getting stuck in unwanted places.
  • For the best grip on fresh snow, get yourself a Badgerwheel Soccasin.  

Onewheel Terrain Conclusion

Ultimately, the world really is your playground when you ride a Onewheel. You can go almost anywhere a mountain bike can go. Furthermore, most Onewheel riders will probably park their MTB’s opting for the single wheel all-terrain vehicle. I know my bike had collected dust for the past two summers.
