The Best Onewheel Accessories for Winter Riding
As winter approaches, Onewheel riders need to gear up for colder weather and changing riding conditions. From protecting your board to enhancing your riding experience, having the right accessories is essential for a safe and enjoyable winter ride. Here’s a list of the best Onewheel accessories to keep you rolling through the winter months!
1. Treaded Tires
If you enjoy riding in snow or on icy trails, consider upgrading to treaded tires designed for improved traction. These tires can provide better grip and stability, allowing you to navigate winter conditions more safely. We still don't recommend riding directly through snow, but naturally there will be moisture on the ground, so be mindful of all riding conditions!
2. Fenders
Winter weather can bring wet and muddy conditions, making fenders an essential accessory for your Onewheel. A good fender will help keep snow, slush, and debris off your board and rider, protecting your investment and enhancing your comfort. Look for fenders specifically designed for your Onewheel model that provide adequate coverage without compromising performance.
3. Grip Tape and Footpads
With colder temperatures and potential moisture on the ground, maintaining a solid grip on your Onewheel is crucial. Upgrading your grip tape can enhance traction and stability. Consider using a high-traction grip tape designed for winter riding that provides better performance in wet or icy conditions. Additionally, swapping out for footpads with improved grip can further stabilize your stance, offering more control and comfort when navigating slippery terrain.
4. Protective Gear
Winter riding can be unpredictable, so wearing protective gear is more important than ever. Consider investing in high-quality knee and elbow pads, as well as a helmet that offers good visibility and warmth. Many brands offer winter-specific gear that includes insulation or thermal protection, ensuring you stay warm while staying safe.
5. Lights
Shorter days and darker conditions mean that visibility is key for winter riding. Equipping your Onewheel with front and rear lights will help you stay seen by others and navigate safely. Look for durable, weather-resistant lights that can handle the elements. Additionally, consider wearing a reflective vest or gear for added visibility.
Winter riding can be a fantastic experience with the right accessories. By investing in quality fenders, grip tape, protective gear, and more, you can ensure a safe and enjoyable ride throughout the colder months. Whether you’re navigating snowy trails or cruising through your neighborhood, having the right gear will enhance your Onewheel experience and keep you rolling all winter long. Happy riding!
