How to choose a gyro scooter for a girl?

A few decades ago, no one could have imagined that such amazing technical innovations as a gyro scooter would be available to ordinary people. Now they can be seen everywhere and can be easily purchased for your child. They are bought most often just for children - both for boys and girls. But adults are also happy to ride hoverboards, if possible.

The hoverboard is a small board with 2 wheels and an electric motor powered by rechargeable batteries. The baby on such a device does not fall due to the fact that self-balancing with special sensors is built into the platform. Such a vehicle does not have a rudder. The control takes place by pressing the buttons with the legs, which are directly connected to a small computer, as well as tilting the body in the desired direction. Gyro scooters are made of very durable plastic. The color scheme is quite varied and bright.

Hoverboards are different. For example, a hoverboard for girls will have bright colors. Most often, this model has a red color, which is perceived as girly. For boys, you can choose a model decorated with a print stylized as a space. There are also models with additional playing music. In this case, the device is complemented by speakers. It should be noted that such "chips" do not greatly affect the price.

Parents often buy such a “toy” for their child just to distract him from the phone or tablet at least a little. A modern training device helps the child develop coordination of movements, become much more attentive, and also, importantly, start spending much more time outdoors.

When choosing such a vehicle for your child, you must definitely pay attention to the following points:

• baby's weight;
• the place where he will ride;
• additional functions for the selected hoverboard.

In the event that the weight of the child is more than the permissible, the selected model may vibrate while driving, and it will be impossible to cope with the vibration. In addition, you should also pay attention to the weight of the hoverboard itself. It should not be too big for the girl to be able to carry it on her own.

Most often, such a vehicle is made of a material such as plastic or metal. It is very important. After all, it will be much more difficult to lift a metal structure than a plastic one. The advantage of the latter is that such a product is cheaper. When buying, special attention should be paid to the wheels, or rather to their diameter. The larger it is, the easier it will be to overcome deeper holes.

For children between 8 and 12 years old, as well as for all beginners, it is best to choose a vehicle with a wheel diameter of 6.5 to 10 inches. In this case, the speed can be reached up to 15 kilometers per hour.

Besides, be sure to pay attention to the power of the electric motor. It should be suitable for the child's weight. For example, if a child weighs 45 kilograms, a power of 250 watts per wheel is allowed.

Those parents who are too worried about their babies should pay their attention to applications such as TaoTao. With it, you can control the vehicle from your smartphone. For example, at first, you can limit the speed of movement or track the place where the child is.

A hoverboard for this age group of children is simply obliged to comply with all safety standards... The speed of such a vehicle should not exceed 10 kilometers per hour. Also, a lot of attention is paid to the stability of such models - this ensures that the child cannot fall off the hoverboard. The diameter of the wheels should be equal to 6.5 inches, which makes the process of movement more comfortable.

Do not buy too large models, their weight should not exceed 5 kilograms. After all, very often girls transfer gyroscooters to the skiing site on their own. You also need to pay attention to the manufacturers. It is best to buy models created by trusted companies that do not skimp on components. Otherwise, the gyro scooter can fail very quickly, and the child can get injured.

Having decided to purchase such an interesting vehicle for your daughter during this period, you should pay attention to interesting and bright models. The power of the structure should not exceed 500 watts. The body itself must be made of a sufficiently strong material. After all, girls during this period of their lives are too mobile, which means that they simply cannot avoid falls. Wheels must not be more than 6.5 inches in diameter. Also, it is not worth overclocking such a design too quickly, so they do not need high-speed devices.

11-year-old girls definitely need to pay attention to the weight of gyro scooters. Models that can withstand a weight of no more than 30 kilograms are well suited for them. The diameter of the wheels can be from 8 to 10 inches. In this case, the child will be quite comfortable to move around.

Older girls should pay attention to models designed for teenagers. The weight of a child who is going to ride such a hoverboard should not be less than 30 kilograms. It is important for the sensors to work properly. The diameter of the wheels of such a vehicle is in the range of 8-10 inches in diameter. Power may be slightly higher than previous secular categories, usually 700 watts. Such gyro scooters accelerate to 14-15 kilometers per hour.

If the girl's weight is more than 30 kilograms, then you can already consider a model intended for adults. It is more powerful and faster. Buying an adult model will allow parents to ride with their child. This is great, because in this case you can spend more time with your teenager. In addition, when buying, you should pay attention to the presence of illumination, which will allow you to ride safely even in the evening.

Summing up, we can say that today it will not be difficult to choose a gyro scooter for your child. It is very important to take this issue seriously. Indeed, the safety of the child, as well as of everyone around, will completely depend on the right choice.
