It’s an electric penny board? Sounds useful in circumstances that might demand a smaller cruiser to get around short distances. It’s not much, but some of us aren’t really looking for that 30+MPH longboard sized e-skate. I just want a dinky board that I can ride both to work (1.5mi away) and take to the park (just 1mi away). Plus, I can ollie over curbs with it and 12mph is perfect for when I’m tired after a shift and don’t want to put in a ton of leg work just to get home.
@@MaskedProduc3r yeah I got a Raldey k2 board that was under 300$ that was 1000 watts goes 25 mph and 12 miles on a charge. That's honestly the best I could find under 300$ even has a remote with LCD screen and flashlight.
I have the vivi 170$ electric skateboard from Amazon and I have no problems going up pretty decent sized 4 ft slopes at at least 10 mph but then again i only weigh like 115 to 120 pounds and im 26 years old and I have a lot of fun on my beginner board
I’m able to ride over decent sized rocks twigs and at least 4 or 5 inch tall bumps in the road and cracks but then again I’m a smaller rider and somewhat experienced in riding skateboards and penny board cruisers
I ate pavement on mine a couple weeks ago. It just cut off while I was going 15mph on a path and I ate the pavement. Feels like both my hands and my neck are broken. Prayers appreciated.
If you ride it in reverse you'll go faster and it'll last longer. Pull is more economical than push.. And who makes these motors? I'd like to upgrade..
I am not sure as I have never opened up this board. All of the electronics are in the single enclosure on the board though. The motor wires will have to be disconnected in order for the enclosure to fully detach though
But the brakes are very touchy and sensitive the board brakes fast and hard and taking off is a little bit squirley and difficult to start to off with to start cruising
that's the dumbest question i think i ever heard. range by definition means how far it can go use a dictionary for once or just google it like everyone else.
@DIYesk8Builders that's incorrect, this was made 2 years ago, and that was 2022, 2022 was the year I got my first electric skateboard, which was a little less than 130.
Although this electric skateboard is cheap, it is definitely not worth it. If you can spare an extra $100 you can get so much better specs. I built an electric skateboard that goes over 25 mph, has 10 miles of range, and goes up the massive hills where I live (basically double all the specs) for only $300. Like you said, the only good aspect of this board is that it's portable, which beats my DIY because it's super hard to carry.
The problem is the battery packs that these manufacturers use have no balancing circuitry. So every time you charge and discharge the battery, the individual cells become more and more unbalanced. This not only destroys the battery within a number of months, but it creates the risk of fire. It's a terrible practice, but the manufacturers from a certain country don't care very much about safety.

Exactly!
i been collecting electric skateboards. I might add this to my collection later. it seems good for using in around our small town
Any cheap ones wot decent speed?

Forgot to say it also has double kingpin trucks and those are great at carving and road shock absorbance. They Rad AF 😎 LMAO 🤣
I gotta do sum research
12 mph looked kinda fast on it and 350w motors are more than the 400$ electric scooters, id say its worth it for a kid
I just bought this as a newbie for short 1-2 mile commute to and from the bus stop, store, etc
Dual motor wheels 20 mph speed, 10 mile range would be cool :)
For 250$
that would sell like crazy but something like that usually costs at least 300-400
best review on this board yet
Thanks for the vid! I really want to get into es8ing and your videos are helping a lot
I apologize this was 3 years ago but I still get around on mine And it pulls with ease

It's a brilliant board for adults tbh

Which god would you like us to pray to? There are a lot to choose from and you have not specified.
@@Mr.N0.0ne ion think he made it yo
It looks cool short budget board
How much weight can it hold? Wanting something cheap to ride around my neighborhood and maybe to the shopping area nearby
I have a 350watt skateboard and is a single motor I weigh 200 and it climbs hills like it isn't nothing

And who makes these motors? I'd like to upgrade..
You don't seem to understand electric skateboards or physics.
how easy would it be to disassemble/detach the battery to fly with?
definitely doable with the right tools
@@DIYesk8Builders appreciate the reply! do you know if the battery comes off in one piece/will i be able to pack it into my carry on baggage?
I am not sure as I have never opened up this board. All of the electronics are in the single enclosure on the board though. The motor wires will have to be disconnected in order for the enclosure to fully detach though
And mine has the same motor and battery but my deck is like some kind of plastic or carbon fiber type Material I’m not sure what it’s made of
can you ride this board for a short distance ( 1/2 mile ) if you are out of juice? i'm looking at this for my 9 year old son
it is definitely pushable yes
I had two and one broke after 5 Minutes and the other never worked
I have a Wookray and it was great for 3 months but the remote does not light up or work anymore. Do you sell a compatable remote?
Hi, we do not sell any compatible remotes for this board. I would reach out to them and see what they say
Found one on Amazon, still working.
It isn't the cheapest. The cheapest is on Amazon for £140 still very good vid
You are confusing currencies.
I have an electric skateboard that doesn’t have a remote control and I have no idea how it works
Did it not come with a remote?
I found an electric "fish board" on rbay for $120. Battery recently died after a year of owning.
But the brakes are very touchy and sensitive the board brakes fast and hard and taking off is a little bit squirley and difficult to start to off with to start cruising
Can you please explain what exactly does range mean?
How far the board can go on a single charge
that's the dumbest question i think i ever heard. range by definition means how far it can go use a dictionary for once or just google it like everyone else.
Mine has literally that same exact controller I mean that same exactly alike controller and I can probably go like 12 to 14 mph maybe faster on mine
Funny thing, here in Norway we're not even allowed to go faster than 12 mph on eskates and scooters etc
That sounds miserable. I keep up with traffic in most places around my city😅

In Canada they are illegal altogether. Consider yourself lucky.
Theres a few for 130..?
at the time this video was made
@DIYesk8Builders that's incorrect, this was made 2 years ago, and that was 2022, 2022 was the year I got my first electric skateboard, which was a little less than 130.
@DIYesk8Builders And at that time I got it in the start of 2022
Recharge time?
around 2 hours

Very well said! That's the route that I took when I built my first esk8 and I'm so glad that I did
U suggest any better particular model? I want one electric skateboard but not sure which one
the batteries on these won't last more than a month. don't ask me how I know
we will see if they do. so far so good and we are a month in
how? my hamsters eboard battery lasted like 8yrs. he rides alot but he dont weight much if that makes a difference
Been riding it 3 months, every day, and It's holding up. I weigh 170

What do you expect for the price ?
Have you not ever heard of the saying ....U get what u pay for , nothing less
100% lol it is dirt cheap
Is the remote replaceable?? I don’t understand why nobody is asking this lmao
Not sure!
So basically it sucks in all aspects but it's cheap
You got it
@@DIYesk8Builders it was a nice review anyways
thanks!
Lmao
Stop reviewing shit skateboards that don’t work after a week.
