That’ll do it.

He is riding hubs probably. The gear drives are just for optics…
Pressure wise I do the same as @Venom121212 short check before each ride just to be sure there is no flat.
I do not take it too much serious that all tires have the same pressure.

High reduction meets torque.
I noticed, that I don’t need as much amps as I thought.

I’ll put this question here because there’s no other threads I could find on riding technique, that are specific to mountain boards, offroading, and jumps.
First, and most important - What’s the best way to learn how to wheelie?? 
As I’m doing less building and more riding these days, everything is starting to look like a jump or an opportunity to try something dumb.
After seeing a few ig videos recently from esk8_rus (Артем on Instagram: "100 метров в максимально комфортном градусе - легко😱 #esk8builder #esk8 #esk8life #longboard #eskate #esk8squad #esk8riders #mountainboard #longboards #mountainboards #trampaparts #trampaboard #esk8 #eboarding #boosted #evolve #evolveskateboard #tesla #skateboard #go-pro #emtb #mountaibike #electricboard #маунтинборд #esk8ride #esk8community #esk8builders #esk8fr #esk8diy #skateboards") riding out the most controlled buttery smooth wheelies I’ve seen, I tried my first ever at a stop sign last night and immediately overdid it, flipped backward, and busted my elbow in the street. Still worth it. Would try again.
Time to get gud.
Who’s got tips?

That’s wild. He’s not even engaged in the wheelie at all. Literally just straight up like a popsicle stick. Almost looks like self balancing its so smooth 
High motor amps is a must but I always worry about punching it too much and tipping back. Realistically, I don’t think I can lift the 12s9p high enough to tip back without getting a hernia.

I took half my battery out so I was running 12s2p and it came up too quick! Gotta find that equilibrium point.
Although all my electronics are in my center box. If you’re running a rear esc, I imagine that would help the CG and stability

maybe practice bmx bike manuals? or really non-powered mtb manuals would be a good place to start.
lol

Shit this is genius! This is exactly what I was looking for. Time to build a manual machine - this is a great way to find the equilibrium point, no matter if it’s powered or not.
Bike tube as flip-catch is genius. Gives you some give.

What this made me think of is how if you were riding a mtb with self balancing app switching it would look totally astounding to see someone going down the road doing a nose manual.
Kinda superman style riding.
@NuRxG +1 more bump for on the fly app switching
