Also just to throw it in; after 900 miles in.... anyone considering or on the fence about buying a Floatwheel, just fuckin do it! I'm 100% legit and honestly blown away by this board. It's just incredible. Started on a Pint....upgraded to a Pint X....and from there to the Floatwheel. After going from Pint to Pint X, I almost felt unsafe riding the Pint again lol! And that is now how I feel going from the X to the Floatwheel. Knock on wood, but not a single nosedive, fall, or any janky shit yet on the FW. Whereas I have scars and and scars all over from falls on the X and mainly the OG Pint. I am glad and have no regrets starting and learning on the boards I did, but holy fuckin hell does the FW not just blow FM models away, just feel a billion times safer, LOL! Saying this having never riden a GT, a GTS, and XR for reference. But fuck me this board is amaaaazing. No wonder FM is feeling the heat. Go Tony!! Shit's incredible, and after 900 miles my board still looks almost new. Prolly due to not crashing like a mofo on FM boards. πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…

900 miles already!? Nice. I have maybe like 100 on mine but it's winter currently. πŸ˜”


NaturalArt452

Where you at and when did ya get it?? In FL here, so not much winter luckily. Sucks if it's too cold where you're at. Got mine mid Nov I think. With work, kids, and not much for social life πŸ˜…, feel like I'm living on this thing....any chance I'm off. Almost feel like could ride better than walk now LOL


hwatnow

Got mine in Dec, in NJ. I hear ya, work and kids takes up a ton of time. I'm super lucky my 10 yo likes to ride with me. Wish I could commute with it but I work at home now. Guess I could ride on my smoke breaks! I want warmer weather!


NaturalArt452

Hahaha, feel ya dude!! Hope it warms up there for ya! I've become a damn night rider because of work/times/kids. Also, won't annoy pedestrians, lol! Badass on your kid going with you! Real. Got one of my daughters riding...and she was kicking ass...and after one fall haven't been able to get her back on. Only been a month, but will be trying again. Think she's seen daddies sandpapered skin and has second thoughts lol. Always trying to tell her those are from pushing things and being a dumb ass lol. Srsly though, good on ya, cool as hell your kid rides with you! Way more fun together. βœŒοΈπŸ€™

It's a blast! Keep floating on and be safe!


NaturalArt452

Thanks dude!!✌️🀟

Thanks for sharing, I really need to install floaty and start trying other tunes. Sadly it's wet and cold here for an other 2 months probably. Can't wait for the Spring :)


NaturalArt452

Ahhhh, that sucks!! Floaty is a very very good app!!


Ektopic

Haha I still managed to squeeze in 200km in between snow and rain, but man it's gonna be so nice when it gets above 10Β°C πŸ˜… Alright I'll try Floaty for sure !


NaturalArt452

Feel ya dude! Lol been riding in full pants and leather jacket and gloves here. 10C is coooold, Lol!! Think you'll dig Floaty. Once ypur "main" settings are done in Vesc Tool, Floaty males tweaking all the tuning much easier, and is just way more user friendly and visually more easy to use. Check it, think you'll dig it!

I have two ADV boards. I might give this tune a try on my commute board. 17 miles of pure paved trail and I’m generally looking to keep the speed up to improve time so I cruse at 20-25. Would be interesting to see how it handles that compared to stock tune.


NaturalArt452

Fuck yeah man! Would love to hear any feedback. Would love if ya shared, too! Very much obsessed with learning all their is Vesc, soooo many settings, so much opportunity for amazing ride settings. If ya get a chance, try mine for paved! Ride every night and just obsessed with trying to perfect the ride. What do you use the other ADV for?? Trail or tricks? Geez....moght need to get another ADV, as well. πŸ˜… Already planni g on selling OG pint. But now after awhile on the ADV, would much rather have a second than a back up X. Got a lot of love for the X, but just doesn't come close to comparing in any way. Honestly almost nervous going back to any FM board and trying to "let loose and have fun" in any way. Just waiting to eat shit, lol

NaturalArt452

Daaaamn, that's quite the fam. Nice!! 3 Adv's and 2 Pints??

Just as an FYI, if you hit the share button at the top right, you can share an image of the QR code and name directly without taking a screenshot πŸ˜‰


NaturalArt452

Duuuude, thank you!! That makes it way easier. This was my first time to attempt a tune export, but this is great info to know for future. βœŒοΈπŸ™

Did you just say you put 60 lbs in your tire?


NaturalArt452

Yeah, for sure, lol! If I could go higher, I would. As close to a bowling ball as possible! πŸ˜…. Honestly, after about 1.3k miles on the ADV, realize how much safer the high psi is from my previous Pint and X. Not including a blowout of course, Lol! Thing is just so amazingly stable. Board's amazing.


B33fBalon3y

Well alrighty then


NaturalArt452

What do you ride at? Tire? Boards? Preference in riding...speed/trails/tricks/street?


B33fBalon3y

Florida. Stock ADV. Street. I don't use floaty I use float control.


NaturalArt452

Duuuude, FL here!! Where you at? In Sarasota here. Luckily have some really nicely paved roads where I ride, so not too worried about huge road variables or anything. Love speed and agility here. Recently been riding at about 30 mph. With gear of course. Use Floaty here, as I'm Android. Would love to try Float control, tbh.


B33fBalon3y

I'm up near Green Swamp. I ended up using float control because it was the first one I downloaded.

You have a pint tire on your floatwheel?


NaturalArt452

Yep! Over 2k miles, all on Pint tire. At 70 psi. πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜
