Pushing is so pathetically 90’s. Get over it. No more kicking on that skateboard to get you around! The skateboards of the future are all motorized.
A saw a video about electric skateboards. Since then I have had at least 3 different boards, which is as much a tribute to how much I love these babies. But I still keep purchasing new ones or buy parts for the old ones.
So what’s so awesome about an electric skateboard?
They’re extremely fast. We are talking 20-25 miles per hour and more.
It feels like you are flying extremely low. It somehow feels like your gliding six inches off the pavement. The furthest I got was a 14 mile ride.
You control the board with a pistol grip controller that navigates the acceleration and regenerative braking. The brand I recommend is, E-Glide.
E-Glide has a very good warranty policy. Ninety days guaranty on the board and electronics. The boards also come with a six month battery guaranty.
There are 2 companies who produce these skateboards: Altered, formerly known as Exkate and E-Glide. Altered boards have a cool wireless controller, but the boards are made in China and the customer support isn’t the best.
E-Glide, on the other hand are extremely dedicated and care what they are selling. E-Glide focuses on only using top of the range components to build their motorized skateboards.
I personally ride the E-Glide “44 Magnum” a Madrid board designed by Crossbow USA. Lots of concave, and beautiful lines. At 44 inches in length, it’s a Ferrari among electric skateboards.
