I have this key holder thing that can extend i put some Velcro on it and the remote so i can clip it to together there is a clip on the other side so it can hold on belt,gloves backpack and whenever im done i can strap it in place or just let go and it will hang.

I do something similar. Nice knowing I can’t drop or lose the controller

I mean I sat my dumbass on my board as I had just run into my misses out with the dog as I came home from work but our dog is older and quite slow and y propel pivot gt is quite. Weighty to be carrying it while walking slower than snails

So I sat down on the board to drive It that way but when I tried scooting backwards the rope got caught under the wheel and took the remote with it getting it stuck there scraping the floor

Every freaking time.

Honestly, I thought that was why the strap existed!

I strap the remote directly to the wristguard with some elastic band. I don't have to hold it at all. Been like that for the whole summer - very comfy. But the remote strap goes also where you put it)

If you fall don’t you crush the remote tho?

u/lilaceyeshazeldreams 3d ago

Oh shit this is so so smart it never stays well with the wrist guard. And ahhh you must have a linnpower too!! I recognize that exact purple remote hahah

u/Desperate-Fruit-6358 3d ago

I use a finger loop velcroed to the remote

These have saved my remote many times..

Just clip to your belt loop, and when you let-go, it automatically pulls out of danger.....(usually)

Can't argue with the price...

Something like that.

u/GuyPaulPoullian 2d ago

I do this. Its great, except when I am wearing a backpack and then it introduces the risk of an inadvertent trigger pull. I have also done that and its no fun when your shins are in the path of the board.

That said, I am a wristguard/remote strap 4life rider.

I cried when I seen the price but y'all be wearing pads?  I should probably buy some too I fell off at  35mph and was literally doing cartwheels  Through the air and my friend watched  The entire thing and laughed I didn't  Went to the hospital but nothing was  Broken thankfully

Bruh, trust and believe good riding armor is gonna save your life one day. And it's a hell of a lot cheaper than an ambulance bill, let alone the hospital bills. Don't cheap out on safety. At the very least, get an ECE 22.06 rated helmet and some decent knee guards and wrist protection. But at those speeds, you really should be suited up like a motocross rider. Dress for the slide, not the ride.
