I nominate Hollowcunt, clean battery build, sick lights, and maybe sr125s in its future for a better ride lol.

I nominate Warhawk by @Jaws . Such a beautiful semenbone build.
Recently picked up a Semenbone from Flowstate for myself and a friend, so I am building twins! But this thread will be mainly about mine. I’ve been out of e-skate for a while so I wanted to build a reliable/traditional setup that I know to work well (while I work on another project slowly). I’ve left plenty of headroom in the electronics for that reason.
Using the same power train I raced with in ERL, which was brand new at the time. Consists of:
6495 175kv motors
D100s esc
Hoyt puck remote
RTKP gen 1 trucks from @Ean.esk8 @ 45/15°
Linnpower slicks
a new 16s5p P45B
And an older wheel design of mine from 2022.

Thank you Evan, It was fun putting this together especially now that I somewhat know what I’m doing after the first build lol.

I nominate @Tasventouras beautiful 4wd v5 build.
After about 1 and a half years of good times and great racing on the previous setup, I was finding some limitations - primarily on caused by a narrow stance. Pushing through the uncomfortable stance was doable, but less than ideal. On top of this, I was getting wheel bite and burns from the rear wheel on the heel of my rear foot which affected my heel side turns quite a bit.
I’ve been extremely pleased with the 3-links and 4WD drivetrain, so my plan was to transfer this to a new platform. I did…

Id like to nominate the hummiovan, @Egtscs
Originally, this was going to be a post in my shop thread where I’ve posted the majority of my Eovan’s upgrades and fixes throughout it’s lifetime.
However, after a long discussion with internal affairs (the voices in my head) I’ve decided to make a dedicated build thread for…
The hummieovan!
Parts list Hummie deck + eboosted MS enclosure
12s5p P42A battery built by <a class="mention" href="/u/pecos">@Pecos</a>
Savage 1 TKP + <a class="mention" …
I had my doubts when he told me the specs and battery size with that enclosure but it turned out so nice

One more! I nominate @TheSharpergardner and Homing Frequency, awesome board both functionally and aestheticaly. Can’t wait to see it with the split battery setup.
Im sure there will be some sort of compromise.
Maybe range or needing to swap out gearing/tires for racing.
My current build is traction limited. Im running the Mboards Nexus trucks. Which i really like. But i need more turning capability and more traction. I could try pneumatics but my deck will get wheelbite.
*edited for spelling.

Nominations have been updated in OP
@TheSharpergardner @slizer18 please share a picture of your build in this thread to accept your nomination
@Pickled_Monkey you shared a link to the pics only post, so I grabbed one of those. Let me know if you want a different photo for your nomination/voting
@Linny all fantastic nominations - but it looks like that vanguard is not yet completed. The 3dp + carbon work is really clean. Probably a contender for BOTY 2025 though
