RIDE SAFELY
Whether you’re a pro or brand new to riding, it’s always
important to ride safely. Here are a few tips to ensure that
you and your Onewheel Pint stay in one piece.
HELMET
Always wear an ASTM F1492-08, CPSC and/or CE EN1078
certified helmet when riding your Onewheel Pint. Be
sure to attach the chin strap and follow the helmet
manufacturer’s instructions for fit, use and general care.
OTHER SAFETY EQUIPMENT
It’s a good idea to wear wrist guards, elbow pads and
kneepads for extra protection.
SHOES
Always wear shoes that will stay on your feet and grip
the board. Never ride barefoot or in flip-flops.
SEE SECTION 05 “MORE WAYS TO RIDE SAFELY”
FOR MORE SAFETY INFORMATION.
WARNING: Many local governments legislate “road
worthy” laws and require specific safety equipment.
It is your responsibility to familiarize and comply
with all applicable laws of the location where you
ride your Onewheel. This includes properly equipping
yourself and your Onewheel as required by law.

RIDING
YOUR
ONEWHEEL
PINT
AN INCREDIBLE RIDE
Quite simply the most beautiful riding experience on
the planet. Onewheel Pint is the perfect mid-town
ripper, sidewalk slasher, grocery getter or trail explorer.
So easy grandpa can do it, so fun the pros can’t get
enough of it.
Pint is designed to be intuitive. Anyone can learn the
basics in just a few minutes. Once you start riding
regularly, there’s plenty of room to challenge yourself.
BEFORE YOU GET ON YOUR PINT
• Always do a safety check before each ride.
• Read all safety instructions.
• Wear a helmet and other protective gear.
• Choose a safe, controlled and calm environment
away from cars, crowds, obstacles and other
potential hazards.

BASIC BALANCE
Remember, Onewheel Pint is self-balancing so there’s
no need to muscle your way onto the board. Instead,
use slow, small movements.
When Onewheel Pint is on the ground, you’ll notice
a lower side and a higher side. Always step onto the
lower side first. Then place your other foot onto the
rider-detection area. Keep your legs straight (like you
are standing on the ground) with a very slight bend
in your knees.
Stand up slowly and the Onewheel Pint will engage.
TIP: Have a friend’s shoulders handy to help you the
first few times you get on your Onewheel Pint. After
practicing a few times, we promise you’ll be a pro.
TIP: Look where you want to go (don’t look down).
TIP: Use light, constant pressure to control
your Onewheel.
TIP: Don’t bend your knees, stand tall on your
first rides.

27
WARNING: Riding hills exceeding a 15% grade is
extremely dangerous and may result in loss of
control or damage to your Onewheel Pint.
REGENERATIVE BRAKING
Decelerating while going downhill recharges the
Onewheel Pint battery.
UNDERSTANDING THE FOOTPAD
The front footpad is pressure sensitive and divided into
two zones, one on each side of the centerline dots. Both
zones must be pressed to begin riding. The Lightbar turns
blue as visual indication of the sense pad areas you are
engaging.
TIP: Avoid repositioning your foot while riding.
DIRECTION AND SPEED
Lean forward to move forward, and lean back to slow
down or to move backwards. The more you lean, the
faster you’ll go.
TURNING
Use subtle heel-toe pressure for turning left or right.
You will begin to turn in the direction you lean. The more
you lean, the sharper the turn.

ONEWHEEL PINT OWNER’S MANUAL 29
RANGE
Range varies based on an assortment of factors
including rider weight and riding style, terrain, inclines
and declines and tire pressure. For optimal range, we
recommend the following tips:
*Tire pressure makes a significant difference to
Onewheel range, top speed and ride quality.
Even a few PSI change can alter the ride.
TIP: Fully charge your Onewheel Pint.
TIP: Ensure the tire pressure is at 20psi.*

ONEWHEEL PINT OWNER’S MANUAL 31
WAYS TO DISMOUNT
There are a few ways to dismount Onewheel Pint
which can be toggled in the Onewheel app. The new
Simplestop™ method is the default setting and the
easiest way to dismount. If you are new to riding begin
with Simplestop™
TIP: Both rider-detection areas must be pressed to
start riding. If you slow down and remove your foot
from only one area, the Pint will disengage.
WARNING: Never step off with your back foot first
(the foot not on the rider-detection area). This
increases risk of a fall and possible injury.
Simplestop™ - The easiest way to stop. If you are
new to riding start here. pg. 32
1)
The Jump off - Another way to get off. It is not the
most elegant dismount but it works. pg. 34
Heel Up Dismount - A more advanced way to
dismount. Dismount like a pro once you feel like
you are ready. pg. 36

SIMPLESTOP™ (OPTIONAL)
With Simplestop™ turned on, slow down to a stop by
leaning backward to decelerate. Once stopped, slowly
lean back, the board will travel a few inches backwards
then the tail of the board will gently lower to the ground.
CAUTION: To use Simplestop™, it must be turned on
in the Onewheel App on your smartphone.
WARNING: Never step off with your back foot first
(the foot not on the rider-detection area). This
increases risk of a fall and possible injury.
When Simplestop™ is TURNED ON in the settings on
your Onewheel App, lean back to slow the board down
to a stop.
TIP: To Simplestop™ smoothly shift back with
your hips and knees while keeping your chest
over the center of the tire.
1)
Level out. Once stopped bring your board parallel to
the ground (level).
Lean back and lower. SLOWLY lean back, the board
will travel backwards a couple inches then disengage
and the tail will lower to the ground.

ONEWHEEL PINT OWNER’S MANUAL 35
JUMP OFF METHOD
Slow down to a standstill by leaning backward to
decelerate. Once stopped, level out the board and
jump off with both feet at the same time.
TIP: This isn’t the best way to dismount as there
is a chance your board will tip over on its side
and you may scratch the side rails.
WARNING: Never step off with your back foot first
(the foot not on the rider-detection area). This
increases risk of a fall and possible injury. Slow to a stop. Lean back to slow your board down
to a stop.
1)
Level out. Once stopped bring your board parallel
to the ground (level).
Jump off. Carefully jump off with BOTH FEET
simultaneously.

HEEL LIFT METHOD
The heel lift method is a little trickier than Simplestop™
but it can be one of the most seamless ways to
dismount a Onewheel.
WARNING: Never step off with your back foot first
(the foot not on the rider-detection area). This
increases risk of a fall and possible injury.
1)
Slow to less than 1 mph. Lean back to slow your board
down to less than 1 mph.
<1 mph
TIP: Practice the heel lift dismount while holding
onto something to keep your balance. You’ll hear
a small click when the motor disengages.
2) 3)
Lift your heel. Lift your front heel off one side of the
sensor pad and the board will disengage letting you set
the tail down.
Lower the tail. Once your board is disengaged, slowly
lower the tail to the ground.
<1 mph
RIDING YOUR ONEWHEEL PINT

ONEWHEEL PINT OWNER’S MANUAL 39
Like everything in life, Onewheel Pint has its limits. If
at any time you attempt to go too fast, descend a very
steep hill or ride with a low battery, your Onewheel Pint
will “push back.” In a push back situation, the nose of
the board will lift to let the rider know to slow down.
ALWAYS LEAN BACK TO SLOW DOWN WHEN PUSH
BACK OCCURS. NEVER LEAN FORWARD INTO PUSH
BACK. Failing to heed push back by leaning back to
slow down may result in loss of control, serious injury or
death.
WARNING: Ignoring safety warnings, including
push back, may result in loss of control, serious
injury or death.
PUSH BACK FULL-BATTERY PUSH BACK
When the battery is fully charged and you continue to
charge it through regenerative braking (e.g., traveling
downhill), you may experience “Full-Battery Push Back.”
This is to prevent overcharging the battery cells. If this
happens, simply switch your Pint OFF and ON again, and
travel up the hill for a few moments to expend some
of the charge. You will now be able to continue riding
downhill.
WARNING: Never attempt to ride down a long or
steep hill with a freshly charged Onewheel Pint.
Loss of control or damage to your Onewheel Pint
may occur.
RIDING YOUR ONEWHEEL PINT
LOW-BATTERY PUSH BACK
When your Onewheel Pint battery is extremely low, it will
perform a much more aggressive push back and will
become inoperative. This means a full battery charge is
needed. When low-battery push back occurs, stop your
Onewheel Pint and charge it.
WARNING: Continuing to ride when low-battery
push back occurs may result in sudden shutdown
or damage to your Onewheel Pint.
SPEED PUSH BACK
When your Onewheel Pint is reaching its limits, push
back will occur. When that happens, lean your weight
back to decrease your speed. Never lean forward into
push back as you may push your Onewheel Pint beyond
its limits, which could cause you to lose control, fall
from your board and sustain serious injuries or death.
WARNING: Ignoring safety warnings, including
push back, may result in loss of control, serious
injury or death.
