5. Learning to ride
1. XPLORA Hovershoes Control Practice
a) Turn on one unit, put one foot in the middle of the foot mat,
then tilt back and forth to feel the control.
b) Switch to the other foot, then tilt back and forth to feel the
control.
2. Get Ready
Ask a friend to assist you on your first ride. Go to a large open
area avoiding pedestrians, children, pets or other people or
obstacles. Start both units and put them into balance mode.
3. Stepping On
With assistance from your friend/relative, put one foot in the
middle of the unit's foot mat. When comfortable, stand straight
and look straight ahead while stepping up with your other foot
in the other unit. Try to avoid fast tilting back and forth.
4. Ride
With your friend/relative nearby, slowly lean forward and feel
the XPLORA Hovershoes move forward. Slowly lean backward
and feel it stops and then moves backwards. Turn your whole
body left or right gently to turn the XPLORA Hovershoes.
5. Stepping Off
To step off, gently slow down to a controlled stop. Slowly shift
your weight to one foot and place your opposite foot on the
ground.
