Hey everyone, I recently bought an electric longboard and have fallen in love with cruising around on it...and so has my sister. Can't complain - it's a great way to bond but we only have one board. She (and I too) want a traditional board to go along with the eboard. We want something that is easy to push around on, balance on, and cruise around on. I know neither of us are ever going to be bombing hills or anything like that lol. Also under $200, preferably closer to $150 (and on amazon)

Really like the design of this [Arbor Dropcruiser] (https://www.amazon.com/Arbor-Dropcruiser-Premium-Complete-Longboard/dp/B01DEQ95R0/ref=pd_day0_200_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B01DEQ95R0&pd_rd_r=0BJ2CYG7D6PJ295JKQXE&pd_rd_w=Bm6XK&pd_rd_wg=T7DpC&psc=1&refRID=0BJ2CYG7D6PJ295JKQXE) and it seems like it's a fairly well received board from my short time researching it on here. Also considering this board too. Not sure if one style is easier or better than the other for our needs. Or a completely different brand might be better. Any comments or recommendations, let me know. Thanks

u/drdiamedic · 1 pointr/ElectricSkateboarding

Hey guys, been thinking about getting an e-board for a long time but there are SO many choices.

I live near a college campus and would like to use the board to get from my house to school and back, so a 10 mile range should be more than enough. I will probably be riding on streets and sidewalk. The area is pretty flat so hills aren't a big worry.

I have a Sector 9 Aperature Sidewinder long board already and love how carvy it is so a similar board would be great. BUT, if using double king-pin trucks on an eboard wont work I think I'd like something with a tail for getting through campus. I don't need to be blazing fast I just want to enjoy riding a board and carving without pushing.

Preferably I can keep the board close to $400. I've been looking at Ownboard and Meepo variants for a long time. Any advice for one over the other or some other choices?

Thanks!

​

Edit: Could I salvage some parts from my current board to put them on the eboard?

u/eRCaGuy · 1 pointr/MeepoBoards

Hey, I'm glad you found the infamous "Computa Pranksta". That's awesome! I hope you enjoy it. It's far from a perfect product but it does the job most of the time.

As for the charge adapter, here is a preliminary listing on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/eRCaGuy-Electric-Skateboard-Charger-Adapter/dp/B07KNN9PZZ/ref=olp_product_details?_encoding=UTF8&me=. If you'd like one, I'm currently selling the kits (you must solder it together yourself) for $25 with free shipping, or $35 for the pre-assembled version. You'd have to do the purchase direct through me over PayPal. You could do a PayPal "donation" to me here (https://www.electricrcaircraftguy.com/2016/01/contribute.html) for the right amount and make sure your address is correct and all, and make a note what it's for, and I'll mail it out. I only ship once a week though, and this product is guess what?--also not perfect.

I only have 1 pre-assembled version in stock right now, but quite a few kit versions. I'm in the process of a re-design but don't know when it will be complete. The current version as shown on Amazon requires a 4" jumper wire on the back due to a missing trace (done for your on the pre-assembled version of course), and if you use two chargers at once can get pretty smoking hot: way too hot to touch, but still within operating limits of the components. If you think this is for you feel free to make an order. Here's a couple photos: https://photos.app.goo.gl/ob95f5xUcx1QkubB6.

Also, for anyone assembling your own: I have a 30 minute video showing me doing the entire assembly process that I can put on YouTube. It's an unedited video as that's not a skill I have yet (video editing), but it's better than nothing.

u/pawsitivecattitudes · 1 pointr/longboarding

Hey guys, new to the subreddit. I've seen a few other similar posts on here from other people. Most of them are pretty outdated, so I thought I'd put up a post for myself personally.

I've been thinking for awhile about getting into longboarding, so I'm completely new to this and have very little knowledge in it. I do know that finding the right type and make of a board depends on the rider's physical build.

I'm an average height female and weigh around 270-280 lbs. My shoe size is 6.5 in men's. I'm really only gonna be using the board to cruise and maybe learn some tricks on flat ground.

I'd like a board that can support my weight but is also aesthetically pleasing. Don't wanna pay for a board that I'm not crazy about appearance-wise as well, right? A symmetrical board is all I'm really looking for other than the weight support factor.

I would like to not spend too, too much on my first board. A complete board would be ideal as well. Preferably below $100. I was looking at some Ten Toes longboards (https://www.amazon.com/Ten-Toes-Board-Emporium-Skateboard/dp/B01L6V7J1E), since I really like their shape and design but wanted to get a second opinion but I jumped the gun.

Thanks!

u/Tfrazzledazzle · 1 pointr/longboarding

I'm about to buy a Bustin Shrike. It's an inch shorter then your max. It looks absolutely sick. You can never go wrong with Bustin.

However, since I have never actually rode the board, I can't really tell you how it feels, or how light it is.

But along with the deck, try some Paris 180s. They're good quality and pretty well priced. The 43 degree baseplate is obviously going to be a bit more stable at higher speeds, but the 50 degree baseplate will be super carvy and awesome freeride. I use them and they're pretty noice.

And For wheels, I personally like the Butterballs, just cuz theyre amazing. But just about any wheel with a round edge, and a hard duro will be good.

However, if you are going to be doing higher speeds, I would invest in some soft wheels with squared edges. They'll have a lot more grip, and are still possible to slide (but a little more difficult than hard/rounds)

u/r3_heatstroke · 1 pointr/longboarding

I've been longboarding for about a year, using my friends' boards until a couple of months ago, when I got this longboard secondhand from someone I know.

Well, the board was run over by a car, but I still have the rest of the parts so I went ahead and got this deck to replace it. Alongside that, I got a set of Bones Reds bearings to replace the stock ones. My question is: what other upgrades should I prioritize to improve on the stock Atom setup? Which improvements will yield the best cost-to-performance ratio?

I primarily use the board for cruising, though I'd like the option of doing some downhill if I decide to later on. I know very little about longboard parts, and the selections for each different piece are quite daunting. Here's hoping someone here can provide me with some guidance.

Thanks!

u/LoveJiuJitsu · 1 pointr/mountainboarding

I've been looking at getting into MTB as well, and don't yet have a board, but see you haven't received much in the ways of a response. From everything I've read on forums, MBS are a really good brand and the Atom is a good entry level setup. If/when I do get into MTB, the Atom will be my first board, unless I decide to go a little better and go one step up with the MBS Colt 90X or MBS Core 94:

For some reviews of the Atom outside of Amazon:

Kinda flaky review, but gives some insight:

Good luck and let us know what you pick!

u/riddicculous · 2 pointsr/longboarding

I am a big dude, 6'4" about 300 lbs. I've just recently picked up a longboard after not having skated since I was like 10 and much smaller. I just bought a cheap one off amazon by a brand called Ten Toes https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01L6V7J46/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_sHHEzbJW5QTR6. The way I figured, this was a low overall investment to try and pick it back up and overall I'm pretty happy with it.

Well it's been like a month and I'm getting better and more confident. My real question here is, are there any good boards well over 40"? My current one is about 40" and it's fine, but I feel like I will be more comfortable on a bigger board. I'm using the board more to just putz around to do errands and skate to my friends houses. I'm new to this and have no idea where to look or start!

u/starryey3d · 3 pointsr/longboarding

Hey everyone

I'm new to longboarding (couple of weeks) and I bought my first board off amazon (yeah I know they suck but I didn't have a lot of money to spend and just wanted to try it out so don't judge me please).

So I got this board for like $70 https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01MU91KTA/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1501970316&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=volador%2Blongboard&dpPl=1&dpID=51YRN0trH%2BL&ref=plSrch&th=1&psc=1

Turns out I really like riding and wanted to invest some more as I progress. My question is, is it worth to upgrade the trucks/wheels on this board or not and just get another board from the brands at sidebar wiki beginner guide? Or if you have any tips in general regarding getting a board for noob

Thanks in advance! Have a great day

u/lablack786 · 0 pointsr/longboarding

Hi! I'm a beginner and I'm shopping for my first board. I have an Amazon gift card so I'm kinda limited to just Amazon boards. I was pretty set on picking up the Quest Super Cruiser and some Zealous bearings because basically every beginner picks this board up to learn longboarding and the bearings would replace the standard crappy ones, but I just found this new board on Amazon called the Quest Super Cruiser Remix (basically a shorter version of the original Quest board). I can't find that many reviews online about it, but it's shorter (i'm on a college campus with tons of pedestrians so this would be a huge plus), and has a sick design (I love blue lol). Any thoughts on the board? Should I get the original black Quest 44" or opt for this "Remix" at 36"?

u/[deleted] · 1 pointr/longboarding

Alright, thank you for the help, I really appreciate it!

Would I be better off getting a complete kit off of Amazon, or building it as a custom? And with the specifications I provided, would this be a good option to consider or would I get better bang for buck from Muirskate? :

If not that, then how about this?

Thanks so much, you guys are seriously helping me not throw all my money away on generics

u/gitterwibbit · 2 pointsr/longboarding

Thanks for your input, but I'm really not looking to learn all of this stuff. I really just want to get a decent board online or somethin', fully setup, and be done. Sorry if I sound ignorant, but I just wanna get somethin' good and be done.

I'm thinking of picking up one out of these:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008EZNY4W/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NR4MCUW/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=

http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B008EZNYOW/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&condition=used

Which would ya say is the best in terms of durability, stability, and handling. I'm really looking for something that can make swift turns, pick up speed, and be stable.

Sorry that I'm incredibly uninformed on how all this works. But I really just wanna pick up a solid, decent board that can do those things.

Also, my neighborhood has some rocky, bad roads, sometimes. Sometimes its solid, sometimes its jagged. Which one of those boards above can keep up with it while still being stable?

If those can't do the job, could you link something that could thats >100$?

u/anewsubject · 4 pointsr/longboarding

Gonna be honest with you, those boards are trash. The trucks on the first two look made of plastic and I didn't even waste my time look at the third one. Longboarding is a hobby where you get what you pay for, if you pay next to nothing it probably is trash.

However, occasionally you'll get lucky with good sales. Rayne currently has a complete Demonseed with Rayne Wheels and Atlas trucks for $127 which is the best entry price for a longboard besides maybe a mini like a Landyachtz Dinghy

u/regionalmanagement · 2 pointsr/longboarding

Ive had this board for about 15 months. For most of it i didnt use it because I live in Florida with no hills or many good places to do tricks but I picked it back up again and Im 10 times better now. I can do slides and Im starting to master other tricks. So Should I upgrade to a better board, or just get better trucks/wheels or should I keep the same board for longer?

Money isnt an issue per say but I don't long board that often so Id like to keep it under 210$

u/jjcuber · 1 pointr/longboarding

Thinking about picking up freestyle/dance longboarding as a hobbie but money is tight since I'm a teenager with no job yet. But I was wondering if there was a decent board in like the $70 range that I could try out and see if I like it and then I'd buy a quality board. What I found so far was this playshion board for $60 (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07443VW75/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_V78XCb4K80XFW) if I could get thoughts on this board or recommendations that would be nice thanks.

u/GGarcia411 · 2 pointsr/ElectricSkateboarding

TeamGee looks like your best option from amazon. Link Besides TeamGee and Boosted, all the other boards are basically Chinese rebrands that probably aren’t worth buying.

u/itsmesp24 · 2 pointsr/longboarding

Im a newbie and to be honest Im not interested in sliding or any tricks yet, I just want to ride fast and cruise around. Do you guys have any wheels to recommend? I was thinking Orangatang Inheats or 4Prez. I just want to accelerate fast with smooth comfortable ride. Here is my board if that helps guys - https://www.amazon.com/Volador-Freeride-Longboard-Through-Petunia/dp/B01MU91KTA/ref=lp_4985188011_1_2?s=outdoor-recreation&ie=UTF8&qid=1500150973&sr=1-2&th=1

u/DuctTape534 · 3 pointsr/ElectricSkateboarding

Specs:

  • 2x 6374 180kv motors

  • MBS all-terrain wheels

  • 2x pulley kit (36:13)

  • 2x motor mounts

  • Caliber II Trucks (I have wider Torqueboard 218 trucks coming so I can mount both motors inside)

  • Antispark switch

  • FSESC 200A

  • 2x 6s 6000mAh Lipos

  • Deck from a longboard I bought like 4 years ago

  • Both enclosures were 3d printed with ProtoPasta carbon fiber and TPU washers that vary in thickness to compensate for the contours of the board (my own design).

  • bearings

  • Dual charger

  • other various screws, nuts, wires, connectors, solder, etc


    Total Cost: Approx. $1200


    Additional notes:

  • This was my first time using this brand of carbon fiber filament and I have to say its insanely strong, knocking on the back of the case, which is only 5mm thick, feels like knocking on a brick wall, its nothing like any filament i've ever used before and prints surprisingly well but will destroy brass nozzles (which cost pennies anyways).

  • I've gotten it up to 26mph so far, with plenty of throttle left to go (I'd honestly say I didn't hit over 50% throttle). It's been about 2 years since I've rode my longboard, and I've only tried a friends boosted board once about a year ago, so I still need to build up to going fast. A more experienced rider got it up to 29mph and said he still had throttle to spare. So so far no one has been willing to top it off, I'll report back once I get some numbers. I will say that it accelerates faster than most if not all brand name boards.

  • Yes I am aware that I fucked up my rear motor, I have since fixed the issue... Whoops.
u/theYellowTangerine · -1 pointsr/longboarding

Right now Amazon has a lightning deal for a Rimable longboard.

The deck is basically the exact kind of deck that I'm looking for. I'm totally new to longboarding aside from trying out a friend's so this seems like a perfect starter board.

Is there something glaring that I'm missing, or is this actually a good deal for me? I understand I'll probably have to replace the parts over time, but since I'll just be using it for some casual commuting it seems good.

Thoughts? Anything I should keep in mind before buying the board?

Anyone own a Ten toes board? The black pipeline is selling at 31$, anyone know how these are? Reviews say the wheels arent great

Not sure if this is a mistake on amazons part but im pretty sure these were around 80 when i was looking a few months ago (31 now).

I'm pretty new, should I get anything else for it? I don't really know how good these specifications are.

u/tommy2832 · 1 pointr/longboarding

Its a pretty bad board tbh http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FWWG8WK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Its a ehh board, if you into longboarding don't get this board but if youre looking for a board for your gf to ride or just a board to learn on its great (witch is what I did)

u/WyYouAlwaysThinkThat · 1 pointr/longboarding

interesting, here's mine. Is yours also slightly asymmetrical? Cause when I switch on mine it feels pretty different even though you can barely see a difference in the board.

One my wife picked. It's a Playshion board from Amazon.
She wasn't sure if she would like riding and didn't want to spend too much.

For light cruising it's fine but I don't think I would ever want to do any serious down hill with it
