How Do I Choose My Swegway?
With so many on the market and new and improved innovations becoming ever more available, more and more people are shopping online to buy Swegway. With affordable prices and high demand, it’s no surprise that a wide variety of new models are becoming available, suitable for all and differing ages. If you’re new to the whole Swegway craze and feel overwhelmed by the amount of amazing variations available to you then fear not as below you can find a list of factors to keep in mind when buying your hover board.
Age Limit
Much like riding a bike, there is no set age limit here. If you can ride it responsibly and without any trouble then you’re pretty much set to go. Of course, when buying for a child, use your intuition when assessing whether a Swegway would be a suitable gift. There is a broad range of designs, from skull and crossbones to bold, child friendly colour schemes and there are a wide array of helmets and knee pads on sale. The fact that these are sold alongside the Swegways more than implies that children are expected to partake in using them as well. If you’re unsure, test it yourself and work out if you think it would be suitable for the person you’re buying for. If not, the devices have a long life expectancy and therefore could be a great investment for the child in question at a future date, and a good it of fun for you now.
Swegway sizes
Again this comes down to height and age. There are several sizes you can choose from when it comes to Swegway boards. The 6 inch Swegway board is great for use inside. As a lighter model it has hard tyres which are ideal for indoor use or flat surfaces outside. The 6 inch has a very efficient and economical battery life due to having to power less hardware. However, if you are a larger user then it may be worth investing in the bigger 8 inch swegway for practicalities sake. The 8 inch has rubber tyres, making them adaptable to outdoors and off road terrains. Although the eight inch can travel slightly faster than the six inch, the battery life doesn’t last as long as the 6 inch board, due to having to power more hardware and at faster speeds.
Bluetooth
This comes down to personal preference. Many Swegway devices allow you to connect your phone via Bluetooth to play music as you ride. This may appeal to some users and may not to others.
Are Swegways safe?
Swegways have been built ultimately for smooth travel and sturdy longevity. Of course, like with any transport device you must take precautions so as to ensure your own safety. Like with a bike you should always wear a helmet and knee pads whilst using it and avoid roads and busy streets. If using the Swegway for tricks, make extra sure you are wearing protective clothing. If you are planning on travelling outside, make sure you have practiced inside first and have got the hang of using it
