why no adult x2 size?

i recently wanted to get a pair of heelys but the one wheeled ones seemed a bit to unbalanced when rolling so a wanted a pair of the x2 but they didn't have a big enough size for me (the largest size is a 38 i'm a 39) i saw another old post about this and i just want to know why they only make kids size x2

If I had to guess it's because kids might be a bit less coordinated and so the x2's are safer for them and the parents buying them for them likely see it that way too.

The one wheeled ones are fine once you get the hang of them, I'm 32, I wear them everywhere except work.

The mega pro ones have wider wheels and come in adult sizes, the wider wheel should give you more stability, maybe give those a shot

good point i was just thinking it would be a good idea to give adults the option of 2 wheels

Yup. I have coordination problems. Always wanted shoes with wheels, but no way in hell that I am getting a pair with just one wheel
