ir_fuel Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Really tempted, but it's $2K in the US. Add shipping, customs and VAT and we're talking Gotway Monster budget at my doorstep :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mono Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Quite cool device, this speedboard, but the noise I find a little bit annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mono Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Does the motor really push on the tire to drive the wheel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mono Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 I was just constantly looking from the wrong side I didn't think that a chain should be making that much noise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike_bike_kite Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Looks lethal to me and you're definitely braver than me for trying it out. For a prototype that thing was beautifully built and it also certainly crashes well ... which is probably just as well. Perhaps future versions could incorporate a bandage dispenser? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of the reasons I got rid of the e-skate and switched to the Onewheel XR. Managing speed with your body feels a lot more natural than having to undergo the result of pressing a trigger. In the first situation the device reacts to you, in the second you have to react to how the device behaves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not as versatile or as fast as an EUC, but for low speed fun around the block it's a great device. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
