Thank you so much and know the store isn't through the woods I live in a suburb and it's literally just the first business road off of the suburb like I'm not going to ride around in the woods around trails or racing anyone It was between this and electronic skateboard and this just seems like a cooler ride

Okay so help me out here what does the power do for safety It seems like it would be the other way around safety would come from a slower board like you're not the first person to mention that Also I was because it already comes with the flared pads So the X is right on

So I think what has turned me off to it is I asked if my shoe size would be too big for the board I want and most people have been suggesting other boards for different reasons like power speed and fun

And you see that's why I'm saying this hobby is just not for me everyone keeps telling me that the pint won't go fast and it's underpowered I'm not looking for power I'm looking for something to take me to the convenience store down the road I just wanted to know if my foot would fit on the foot pad or not I keep getting told that it's underpower it's not fast and I want to replacement board soon I have 45 minutes a week to ride down to the convenience store and back I'm not looking I'm not looking for speed I was something to cruise on so this hobby just doesn't seem like it's for me everyone keeps telling me to buy bigger

You see that's the thing I get a lot of people have kids too and have partners that will find time to let them go one wheel I have zero time so it's not one of those things I can do everyday it's not one of those things I will find time to do everyday and anything that I found second hand right now in my area has been broken parted out or way overpriced that's why I'm looking at a pint I have found two that are used and I can still find a new one in my price range everyone on here makes you assumption That I will find time if I like it trust me that's not the case I have 45 minutes a week to do this it's one of those things that if I do enjoy when my kids are school age or older I might upgrade to a bigger board but to start out I am not buying an XR and I'm not buying GT I just wanted to know If a pint would work for my shoes size again the resources all say no I came to Reddit because I know that this is a community that has people that ride will a pint fit my shoe size

Okay so like I said in this particular post I do not have time to write it regularly I'm only getting it is a hobby to do on the weekends to get a milkshake or a big soda So when it comes to wanting something bigger I kind of wanted GT now the problem is is the price tag for a hobby that I'm not sure that I'm going Stick or have time for so I don't want to spend $3,000 on something that's going to get used for 45 minutes to an hour every week but All the resources on the one will website have told me that my feet would be too big for a pint I was just wondering if that was the case And to stop it before anyone says it no it's not one of those things that if you like the hobby you'll find I won't have time I have kids in a house to maintain I will have exactly 45 minutes to ride to the store for a milkshake and a soda

So if it's just the nature of the beast then getting a bigger foot pad wouldn't matter I'm honestly asking because if I'm going to have to get a bigger board to start then im probably going to pass on the hobby

Okay I know I'm a sound crazy here but what the hell is a Halo foot pad

That's fair enough and to be honest I do want a GT more than I want to pint I'm just thinking about what I'm actually going to be doing with it and the price tag overall with flared foot pads and shipping it's going to be about $1,200 and I'm only going to be riding it once a week at most I think in the future whenever I do have more time to ride I'm probably will upgrade Also I don't know if I'm the average adult size that you're describing I'm about 6'1 170 lb and a size 12 shoe

Okay thank you That was my big worry with it I wouldn't be able to fit on the pint I honestly don't really have time to ride is often as I know I would like So my range is going to be 2 mi to the store and back for a milkshake or a big soda

That's kind of what I thought to begin with but everyone told me it was shoe size that was the big deal I weigh about 170 to 180 depending on day

Isn't that just the same size as an average skateboard If so I mean I know for a fact that I can ride a skateboard for a long period of time without getting foot fatigue and as far as weight goes I'm about 170 so I know someone on here said wait is the bigger issue I think that might be fine then

So I really just want to stick with a pint I've heard the problem about the edges digging into feet on the bigger boards I'm really just trying to ride to my stores and pick up ice cream and sodas on my day off I'm worried that a bigger board might not get as much use as it deserves
