Onewheel Winter and Cold Weather Tips

We’ve moved! Check out our FULL article here. Summary below.

Wintertime Onewheel riding can be enjoyable if done correctly. Here are some winter riding tips beyond Future Motion’s recommendations:

1. Dressing Warm: Proper attire is crucial to stay comfortable and safe. Avoid cotton, which absorbs moisture and can lead to hypothermia. Opt for wool or synthetic materials like polyester. Layer your clothing to wick away moisture, trap heat, and protect against wind and precipitation. Invest in wool socks and consider a balaclava to keep your head and face warm.

2. Battery Drain: In extremely cold weather, expect reduced battery performance. Don’t leave your Onewheel out in the cold, as it might stop working entirely. Warm up the battery gradually if it becomes non-operational.

3. Shorter Days: If riding in the dark, wear reflective clothing and consider a small flashlight with a strobe function to enhance visibility.

To avoid common winter riding pitfalls, these tips complement Future Motion’s official winter recommendations.
