Oy fellas. I got the board on 3th of August, but had a single slower ride, since the next day I went for a vacation.
After that, these were my points for their customer support:
Last but not least, I’d like to give you some thumbs up! The trucks are incredibly perfect. No signs of speed wobbles, different and more responsive feeling when carving. I got a sensation of a “spring back” when leaning out of the carve. I had to give them three half turns before going on a road, as they might be too light for my weight (about 90kg in full gear). I’m slightly nervous about the bushings at this point. They look squashed a bit more than ideal. Are there options to switch to a harder duro? Are the bushings regular size, or are they custom?
Deck is so nice. I feel really locked in.
Wheels feel like any other 8" setup. The interesting part will be how they’re constructed - if changing a tire will be difficult or easy. I’ll let you know once I have a puncture.
The charger feels like a toy. It’s really light, plastic and without any “heft” or premium feeling. But I suppose there were not many options, as 14s is not very common standart
The remote does not fit to my hand as well as the boosted one (they’re of a similar construction). I might have to add some rubber or grippy surface, so that it does not rotate in my hand. And as I’m left handed, I can’t easily peek on the remote for any warning messages. But I’ve never seen a left-handed remote, so no complaints to you there. And I love that it is usb-c!
Packaging! The board is really nicely packaged. I felt like I can drop it from a meter, and it’s gonna be fine. All four tires kept their pressure, which positively surprised me. Another thing that caught my attention was the fact that you have it made so one can put 4 tires in the box, and also 4 Street wheels. Are you planning to use this in the future? Or is it so that you can travel with this box? And those alen keys are nice, and 4 spare belts are also very nice
Oh, one mor thing. Few parts of the griptape were loose once I opened the package. I see this as no problem, because it is directly under feet while riding, so it’s gonna stick
And yes, the rubber charge plug is as much pain as everybody is saying.
got a fishy email from aftersales that fell to spam, that I should do some procedure:
with attached video:
i’d say its a calibration, but I feel a bit sceptcal on that assumption comming mainly from DIY.
well, I did not do it yet. also, I’ve just noticed the “do not ride in more than eco until you do this”
also comment from their side:
Because we found that under the current parameters, if the speed reaches S or S+,it is possible to burn down the controller. The operation in the video is to make the board automatically read the accurate parameters again, so as not to burn the controller. Your riding will Safer.
well, I’ve ridden about 20-25km that evening, noticing some weird tearing in the remote responsivness. when I accelerated, then let the wheel off, it kicks slightly. when I move the wheel to accelerate, it kicks way more than comfortable. this to me feels like too short ramping times, especially the ramp-up
also on this ride at the end, the remote starting buzzing. I’ve read the instructions, so I knew it means that I’m at 25-20 percent, but did not see directly at the remote, because I!m not comfortable doing some mumbo-jumbo with the remote at ~35-40 kph on a board with hyper sensistive controlls to read the message that disapears atfer couple of seconds. but I know i dont like buzzing remotes now 
frrrr, timetravel to today:
I’ve ridden 13.2 and then attempted 22.5km, but did not finished, I’ve gone only ~15km to change to another board to continue on the journey. the remote vibrated a bit more to my taste (more often) and made me worried someting’s wrong.
dragged the board to the floor, remote said 25%. wtf? why so much hustle for quater of the battery left?
peaked to the top of S mode, did not try the S+ yet for reasons which follows.
now, the fuck is going on with this remote, or rather app calibration on this board. almost every time I want to accelerate already at speed, I feel like its gonna throw me off.
and I have no clue whats going on. I’ve never had this feeling on any board before. not boosted, not anything DIY on vesc, not older BF boards. oh once I remember I had the same feeling. on a freacking syl08 which wanted to throw you off any time you decided to use the remote.
or is this normal? am I just a pussy with sloppy thumb without much precision and body too weak to withstand it?
so, after the board swap, I’ve mounted my old trampa which I’ve repaired yesterday after couple of months. and boy, that is feahery smooth throttle and breaks on that GT2E remote.
I’ve been passive in esk8 for couple of months before I graduated, but now I’m back baby. and I’m pretty unhappy with the way the board shoulld feel like part of my body
ps before sending, but a nitpick. the allen keys are rather nice. I did not yet have this type at my shop, but I’ve seen them.
when I was adding the mounts for the shredlights, two things struck me:
- the bolts have countersunk head, which looks awful on the flat mounts (also, fun fact, the countersunks on the battery cover look manually done, they look similarly unclean to what I’ve experienced countersinking CF deck)
- the bolts are probably for freedom people and not metric like the allen keys. this means the fit in the head feels prone to slipping, and because of the construction of the truck, you cannot use the skateboard tool to hold the nut, you need a wrench
and while attaching the bash guard:
- another cherry on top, you cannot use the supplied allan keys for attach the bash guard comfortably, you neead a ball end.
fucking heel this was a emotional vomit…
