New Pushback Video

Future Motion has released a video which addresses one of the main safety features of a Onewheel: pushback. As the video explains, this function is intended to warn a rider when they are approaching the limits of the board. Kyle Doerksen (CEO) and Jack Mudd (Marketing Director) both appear on camera to demonstrate the physics of a self-balancing vehicle and the reasoning behind pushback. The video features a breakdown of the forces that keep you floating, complete with a diagram that is suspiciously similar the to explanation detailed by shreddlabs.com in their 2019 article on nosedives.

Watch the full video below or check it out on the Onewheel YouTube channel.

Yo! I am a onewheel nerd based in Pensacola, FL. Given the choice, I’d rather be hitting some singletrack than riding on pavement. I also enjoy 3D printing, woodworking, and hiking.
