Future Motion
Basic information
Founded 2013
Type Private
Industry Electric vehicle
Official website https://futuremotion.com/

Future Motion Inc. is a self-balancing electric skateboard manufacturer founded in 2013 by Kyle Doerksen.[1] Development of the Onewheel was funded through Kickstarter in 2014,[2] and Future Motion has since implemented a number of practices which have been accused of being anti-consumer.[citation needed]

Consumer-impact summary[edit | edit source]

Freedom[edit | edit source]

Privacy[edit | edit source]

In 2021, Future Motion accidentally shared a list of customer information with a customer, which included full names and home addresses.[3]

Business model[edit | edit source]

Market control[edit | edit source]

Incidents[edit | edit source]

Restrictions[edit | edit source]

Hardware restrictions[edit | edit source]

Future Motion has implemented several hardware-based repair restrictions:

  • The Onewheel GT features a "bricking" mechanism that disables the device if the battery is disconnected[4]
  • Custom fasteners designed that make repair more difficult:
    • Bespoke bolts on the Pint model prone to stripping[5]
    • Custom 5-point security pentalobe enclosure screws
    • Proprietary Ribe 8/Torx Plus 45 hub bolts on GT models

Software restrictions[edit | edit source]

  • Removed diagnostic capabilities from official app:
    • Battery cell voltage readings removed in v2.0.18[6]
    • Encrypted diagnostic data to prevent third-party apps from accessing information
    • Removed battery capacity and regeneration data
    • Eliminated board orientation angle readings

Service restrictions[edit | edit source]

Service restrictions point #1 example
  • Refuses to service boards with any missing internal components, even if unrelated to repair need[7]
  • No longer services older models like V1 or Plus, contrary to public claims[8]
  • Documented cases of removing third-party accessories during service without permission[9]

Retailer restrictions[edit | edit source]

Retailer restrictions point #2 example

Future Motion imposes strict controls on authorized retailers:

  • Prohibited from selling non-FM accessories
  • Cannot perform any board service[10]
  • Must cover costs of OEM repairs for factory-defective inventory
  • Banned from online sales

Legal actions against third parties[edit | edit source]

Lawsuits and cease-and-desist orders[edit | edit source]

Future Motion has taken aggressive legal action against:

  • JW Batteries: Sued over battery modification solutions[11]
  • The Float Life: Cease-and-desist over fender design
  • Land-Surf: Cease-and-desist regarding bumper designs
  • OneWave App: DMCA takedown of third-party diagnostic app[12]


Quality-control issues[edit | edit source]

Battery concerns[edit | edit source]

  • Used lower-quality Samsung 30Q cells in 2018 4208 XR models
  • Reintroduced these less reliable cells in 2021 Black Friday models[13]
  • Removed ability to monitor individual cell voltages, making montioring battery health impossible
  • Covered battery packs in foam to prevent visual inspection[14]

Pint X's battery design flaw[edit | edit source]

In 2022, a dangerous design flaw was found in the Onewheel Pint X model, affecting all units produced before June 2023. The flaw involves an improper battery-box design that causes wiring to chafe against the battery-balancing and thermistor wiring[15]. Over time and depending on riding conditions, this can lead to:

  • Shredded wire insulation
  • Flattened wires
  • Complete wire breaking
  • Risk of fire hazard
  • Sudden board shutdown while riding

The issue affects the XT60 power feed's negative wire, which can break and cause loss of power while riding.

Safety implications[edit | edit source]

Future Motion claimed its Battery Management System (BMS) could detect these errors and initiate "extreme pushback" as a safety measure. This claim, however, is technically impossible when wires are physically disconnected or shorting.[15] A device cannot stay powered on to do anything, including extreme pushback, when the positive and negative terminals of its main power source are shorted together.

Future Motion's response[edit | edit source]

The company's handling of this problem shows several concerning practices:

  • Initially offered to repair affected boards under warranty (June 2023)
  • Later reversed position, requiring customers to pay full replacement costs (October 2024)
  • Refused warranty coverage if customers had inspected their boards
  • Failed to issue a recall for pre-June 2023 boards despite ongoing issues
  • Used warranty void stickers to discourage inspection, potentially violating the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act[15]

Effect on customers[edit | edit source]

This issue further exemplified Future Motion's commitment to anti-consumer practices:

  • Denying warranty coverage for user inspection of safety issues
  • Lack of transparency about known defects
  • Shifting repair costs to consumers for manufacturer defects
  • Using warranty terms to discourage safety inspections
  • Failing to take proactive safety measures

Legal implications[edit | edit source]

The company's warranty practices potentially violate the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, which stipulates that a warranty cannot be voided by consumer actions unrelated to the product fault. Simply inspecting the battery does not cause wire chafing or damage[15].

This situation represents an example of a manufacturer:

  • Prioritizing liability protection over consumer safety
  • Using warranty terms to discourage safety inspections
  • Failing to properly address known design defects
  • Shifting costs of manufacturer defects to consumers

Lawsuit against JW Batteries[edit | edit source]

In 2021, Future Motion filed a lawsuit against JW Batteries LLC, a small business offering aftermarket battery options for Onewheel products. This case represents an example of Future Motion's legal tactics against third-party repair and modification services[16].

Legal Claims[edit | edit source]

Future Motion's lawsuit focused on three main claims:

The lawsuit specifically targeted JW Batteries' JWFFM chip, which allowed users to bypass Future Motion's software restrictions on battery modifications.

Effects on Customers[edit | edit source]

This legal action has had several effects on the Onewheel community:

  • Reduced availability of third-party repair options
  • Increased consumer costs for repairs and modifications
  • Created a chilling effect on other aftermarket manufacturers that they too could be subject to expensive legal proceedings
  • Generated community backlash against Future Motion's practices and products

Legal implications[edit | edit source]

This case highlights aspects of modern consumer rights:

  • Use of DMCA to prevent physical product modifications
  • Assertion of continued control over sold products through software locks: you bought it, but Future Motion dictates how you can use it.
  • Legal pressure against small businesses providing alternative repair methods

Response[edit | edit source]

JW Batteries issued a public statement defending consumer rights:

  • JW emphasized consumers' right to modify items they bought and paid for
  • Refused to be "bullied into submission" by Future Motion
  • Intended to find legal counsel to fight the claims
  • Received lots of community support[17]

This lawsuit follows a theme of manufacturers using legal action to assert control over products after the sale, and prevent third-party repairs or modifications, even when such modifications may benefit consumers. The case shows the modern trend of using software-based restrictions and intellectual-property law to limit consumer rights that traditionally existed for physical products.

Negative impacts on customers[edit | edit source]

Lack of documentation[edit | edit source]

  • No release notes for firmware updates
  • No technical documentation beyond basic user manual
  • No communication about known issues or safety concerns
  • Forces community to rely on trial and error for troubleshooting

Limitations on customer choice[edit | edit source]

  • Cannot repair boards independently for many issues
  • Forced dependency on manufacturer for basic maintenance
  • Risk of permanent device disablement from basic repairs
  • International customers face high shipping costs and delays for repairs that could be performed locally

Products[edit | edit source]

  • Onewheel
  • Onewheel+
  • Onewheel+ XR (2018)[18]
  • Onewheel Pint (2019)[19]
  • Onewheel Pint X (2021)[20]
  • Onewheel GT (2021)[21]
  • Onewheel GT S-Series (2023)[22]
