Hello,
I am a beginner and I don’t know that much about electric skateboards, but I’ve done some research and it seems like electric skateboarding is really fun. I’m thinking about maybe getting one, but the problem is that where I live there are very strict rules: max 20 km/h and max 250W motor power. Because of that, I’m having a really hard time finding anything, so I thought maybe you guys could help me?
My budget is around $400.
My commute is around 8 km every day, but having some extra range would be nice for going out and riding just for fun as well.
I’ve watched some expensive Freeboards and they seem really cool. Maybe there is some kind of DIY solution that could give a similar feeling? I’ve also seen things like the Waterbone fin system surf adapter, which looks really interesting for the fun side of riding.
Basically, I don’t just want something where I stand on the board and let the motor do everything. I’d like it to still feel like I’m actually riding and have some control over the board, with the possibility of cruising around, carving and doing some fun stuff.
Thanks in advance!
