On average, it takes 3-5 minutes just to get comfortable standing on your device and maintaining proper
balance. Having a spotter will help you feel more secure. The V2 is an incredibly intuitive device; it senses even
the slightest bit of motion, so having any anxiety or reservation about stepping on may cause you to panic and
trigger unwanted movement.
When you first using your device, the fastest way to move on your desired direction is to focus in that direction.
You will notice that just thinking about which way you would like to go will shift your center of gravity, and that
subtle movement will propel you in that direction.
Your center of gravity determines which direction you move, accelerate, decelerate, and come to a complete
stop. As described in the diagram below, tilt your center of gravity in the direction you wish to move.
To turn, focus on the direction you wish to turn and stay relaxed.
The more comfortable you get on the device, the easier you will maneuver. Remember at higher
speeds, it is necessary to shift your weight to overcome the centrifugal force.
For bumps or uneven roads, bend your knees.
NOTE: Try staying relaxed and focus on finding your center of gravity to maintain full control of
your V2 Scooter.
Dismounting your device can be one of the easiest steps, yet when done incorrectly, may cause
you to fall. To properly dismount, from a stopped position, lift one leg up and set your foot back
down on the ground (STEPPING BACK). Then step off completely as described in the following
diagram.
Before you get off, make sure that the hoverboard is stopped, then step off one foot at a time.
Do not turn suddenly while driving
fast, do not ride sideways or turn on a
slope. The self-balancing sensors may
malfunction and risk your safety.
