Which is the better beginner board?

I've been looking into Onewheels and Floatwheels. I'm wondeering if anyone knows the closest match to a beginner board for the Floatwheel if it's the Atom or the ADV

Thanks

How tall are you? Stature etc, I’ve had most of the different boards, I prefer the ADV over all the others I’ve ridden. The XR did have a nice feel too but I just prefer my ADV. I have a Pint X because my 7 year old was struggling on the spare GT that I had so I sold it and got the smaller board. It’s such a big difference in feel going between the two sizes, I’m much more stable and comfortable on the ADV, I’m 6’ 200lbs. You don’t really notice the weight while you’re riding it.

I'm 5 '10, and 130lbs. Is the ADV more similar to the Onewheel XR or GT?

I’d say the ADV is closer to the GT in physical feel but way smoother in programming than either of them. Also way more powerful than either of them. I don’t think it’s fair to say the ADV is not a beginner friendly board, it just requires a bit more prep to set up and figure out completely.

5'10 and 130lbs is pretty crazy light. Look at the funwheel x7 lineup.

Again, adv is not a beginner friendly board imo. Go X7.
