Operating the Orbitwheels
1
Position the Orbitwheels on the ground in front
of your feet. Step onto the platforms with your
toes touching the ground. Push off with your
back foot and glide. For beginners, it may be
easier to push off a wall or other stable object
with your hands. Get used to balancing and
gliding in a straight line before going on to step
2.

To propel yourself, start by turning your toes
inward. Then push your leading foot in front of
you while at the same time pushing your back
foot behind you.
3
Next, turn your toes outward. Push your leading
food back and your trailing foot forward. Try to
make long, fluid movements instead of short,
quick ones. Your feet will make an “S” or wave

Continue alternating steps 2 and 3: toes in, toes
out, toes in, etc. Swinging your arms and
twisting your body might help you coordinate
the motion. If you feel like you are losing your
balance, just step off the platforms onto the
ground.

Basic Care
Before each use, inspect the Orbitwheel foot platforms and other hardware to make sure they are in good condition.
NOTE: Worn or broken parts must be replaced before use to avoid personal injury, or damage to the Orbitwheels.
If your Orbitwheels need cleaning, use mild detergent and wipe clean with a damp cloth.
You may see people on TV or the Internet, and maybe even people you know, doing tricks and stunts. These are very
experienced users. Don't try to do anything you are not ready for. Avoid steep inclines and don't ride too fast
–
you can lose
control and fall. Remember to be aware of your surroundings at all times.
