lmao, their site is still the worst in terms of user friendliness
yah i think your rite i just didn’t want anyone to think i was being devious by popping up on the scene and then showing up as some other company with similar products.
That’s always a plus .
I appreciate you thinking of me, but honestly I think @Sender would be a better fit for this type of gear. He will ride the absolute hell out of it and has a great eye for aesthetics, which I see a lot of thought went into on this gear. The question I have, and had within 30 seconds of my initial look is “was there a performance and/or durability sacrifice to make it look cool”. I’d bet money @Sender can figure that out in hours.
Send me one and if i break it within a month instead of within a week, it will be a good entry level board. I’ll even send it back for your own diagnostics.
I won’t give it to jake. That wouldn’t be a fair test. Not even Freefly survived him.
Great comment, i did try to make them aesthetically pleasing but with my background in engineering i strongly believe form follows function. My top Priority is Safety, Reliability, Performance, Value and then looks.
I would love to get on that horse and do a proper review.
Lol i better get building then.
He needs a “I’ll break all your shit or give $100” youtube channel
I know, right? Like the vendor actually wins $100 if jake can’t break it under sever use (not abuse necessarily) conditions.
The cool thing is he’s an absolute savage but when it comes to his lady, he’s the king of romance.
YES! You need to get on that now! I’ll put up the 1st $100 bucks, I just wanna watch that.
Thanks for all the great input guys and your suggestions its all much appreciated.
stick around. You didn’t run away immediately, so you must be worthwhile. Or maybe you just like abuse, we’ll see. This is indeed a tough crowd here. We’ve all broken pretty much everything in the pursuit of building the best boards.
Then you guys are the people to talk to im sure i still have a lot to learn and i know the product will evolve over time as all things do but i want to produce a product that the customer is completely happy with.
Welcome. I very much like well engineered products, not over and not under. Same goes for cost. If you balance them well, you’ll have a winner.
Would love to know a bit about your background in terms of engineering and building boards. Did you have an account on the builders forum?
I have a bachelors of science in mechanical engineering and studied pro engineer and creo parametric at ptc university “the 2 programs i mostly use” i worked for the last 7 years designing air conditioning for vintage muscle cars at a texas based company in the engineering and R&D departments we designed the AC for the ford GT and just got into eskate a couple years ago. just made a esk8 builder account recently.
Im curious what’s under the hood of these bad boys, ESC, Batteries, motors, remote, etc. And possibly a bio of who Mr. Rogers is and how he got into the esk8 world?
I need to update a few pictures on the site the photos are not 100% representative of the components that will be used in the production boards. the motors are Flipsky or HGLRC
HGLRC-Flipsky 6354 190KV 2450W Brushless Sensored Motor. The esc’s are 50Amp Vesc From Torque boards. Remote is nothing special just generic nano remote. Batteries are inr18650 25r samsung in a 10s4p,10s5p,10s6p config, with Bms and antispark. The first board i bought was a liftboard dual it was great at first but the trucks felt awful and the board was extremely stiff so i ordered some parts after several days of youtube research and built my first street eboard and it kinda snowballed from there its a very relaxing and freeing hobby. Since then i’ve built probably 50 or so boards to date.
They are more expensive, but Maytech MTO63740HA are better.
Samsung 30Q is the go to cell for esk8, at this point.
awsome i looked at 30Q but was afraid the amps were to low for an AT board.
