My partner started last year, he’s 35. We have regular boards but neither of us are very good at using them. He says it’s easier to learn than self propelled ones.
Unfortunately last winter was crazy for ice and made our roads more potholed than usual, so he hasn’t taken it hardly anywhere since last fall. He got hard wheels for the battery life/distance but says he wishes he got the off-road wheels which require a slightly different drive belt. Also, he had to get a special backpack he could strap it to if he wants to take it to a store or anywhere that doesn’t have a place to safety leave it. It was too heavy for traditional board bags.
He does like it though. He waffled over this or the one-wheel and doesn’t regret it.
