About this experience
The Onewheel is not just a means of electric locomotion. It is a real sport of slides but accessible to all after a few minutes of learning. The sensations are incredible and everyone can dream surfers or snowboarders without ever being on a board!
As the Onewheel really goes everywhere, it is an opportunity to visit differently and taking new and unusual paths.
