How to ride an electric skateboard: the tutorials

The tutorials. From switching on to mastery.

Whether you have just received your Stern' or have been riding for months, these tutorials answer a simple question: how to ride an electric skateboard, step by step, without spending hours on it.

Manuals

The Stern' manuals, as PDFs

To read when your Stern' arrives, or to keep on your phone. The documents are in French.

Good to know

From getting started to full mastery

The steps are arranged in the logical order of learning, from getting started to mastery.

Assembly and first settings

The Stern' is assembled in a few simple steps when it arrives: battery, remote control, first speed settings. This step needs no special tools beyond those supplied.

Switching the Stern' on and off

How switching on and off works, with the indicator lights to watch on the electronics box.

Settings and adjustments

Limited speed for learning, riding modes, remote control sensitivity: the settings take a few minutes and are remembered from one session to the next.

Using the remote control

Getting started, pairing, reading the battery level display.

Learning to ride and progressing

A beginner? The Stern' was designed for you as much as for the experienced rider: its three wheels are more stable than a classic skateboard, and the optional learning pole helps you get started.

Getting your stance right

Foot position, weight distribution, body lean for your first turns.

Starting to ride

Your first ride, in an open area, at limited speed.

Turning on the Stern'

You learn to turn by shifting your weight gradually rather than by a sudden movement on the remote control.

Off-road tips

Sand, snow, forest trails: each terrain calls for a different speed and stance adjustment.

Refining your riding

Once you have the basics, refining your carving technique and speed control on difficult terrain makes the difference between getting around and really riding. These points are covered in addition to the basic tutorials, in real conditions on different terrains.
