The boards are used for both recreational and commuter purposes. They’re easy for beginners to learn and experienced board sports people love the endless carve of an electric board.

  • CHALLENGE

  • The board has been designed to have a “very hi-tech feel”. The deck is moulded from Carbon Fiber/Kevlar and the battery is incorporated into the deck, a world first for electric skateboards. The trucks are double-jointed polished chrome with customisable wheel options. The Street setup weighs 8kg and All Terrain setup 10kg, the lightest of its kind in the world and a world first as the only electric skateboard that can be converted to suit terrain. It is powered by 350 Watt 5500RPM custom brushless motor. Riders control it with an ergonomically-designed hand-held wireless Bluetooth remote that features a reverse function and battery indicator. It is almost silent and features stepless acceleration and braking.
