I’m nominating @Tasventouras for his 4wd racer. He’s been killing it on the track with it too!
I figured it was high time I contributed to this forum after many years of reading and gaining knowledge from you lot!
Here’s my newly finished/rebuilt raceboard, after a handful of iterations. I come from primarily snowboard & mountainboarding background so my original raceboard was essentially a mountainboard (from 2wd to 4wd). As great as it performed and as close as I nipped at @JeffyJ 's heels I was still lacking manoeuvrability around hairpin turns on the track and tended to slide around …
I’ll likely nominate more but anything else i immediately thought of from top of my head had already been nominated.

Copying a longboard deck
This one does not meet SHITTY BOTY 2023 nom criteria. It needs to be rideable before the end of the year. This is likely eligible for SHITTY BOTY 2024 though.

Are you thinking of one of last years nominees?

TECHNICALLY @MatteoFPV couldn’t compete last year as he didn’t finish the build until mid Jan 2023
I think it about time to share my plans for my new Build. It is going to be an Evo copy deck wich i’m going to Build myself, since i have acces to a big woodworking shop with a big industrial CNC machine. It is going to be an integrated Deck Build, with a lid on the Top for accesebility. I’m gonne be making a 10s4p Molicel P42A Battery Pack soon. It will be driven by two 6374 FS Motors and a Focbox Unity. Also Using a LTT Smart BMS for Discharge only. Enough said, here are some pics of the start…
So I am definitely nominating this one as well. It was the core influence for Frankendick the second and that one has become one of my favourite and most reliable boards ever.

woot woot not late BOTY entry

205kv Reacher v5
Unobtanium Prototype PKPs

I’ll nom @Evwan ’s Dusk R2. Its apparently a brand new board, he just reused the build thread from Dusk R1. And some parts. And the name. But it’s totally a different build. I dont know if I believe that, but the great thing about not being in charge of BOTY this year is that I dont have to respect (or even understand) the rules.
Evan was definitely one of the interns we had last year. He builds some of the skateboards ive ever seen.

Well since nobody took the fucking hint and nominated my darling Frankendick, I’m gonna be that guy
Righto cocks. After my hissy fit and selling all of my shit, I have regrets.
But fear not, there will be redemption. I didn’t sell ALL of my shit, and i’m hoping that over the next few months that I can piece together enough shit to make a shit build.
Frankendick the First kindly donated itself to my daughter’s Exway X1 and is now in a weird limbo where it’s not quite mine but not quite hers… I digress. This is about Frankendick the Second.

I nominate my own build Frankendick the second because i’m just narcissistic like that.
Deal with it.

Nominating @tuckjohn crazy board
Hola!
[Banner, cropped]
I built a 4wd Raceboard. Stooge v5 frame(SN 28), 4x Reacher 7490 motors, and 4x MakerX G300s. Scratch built wiring harness. Sparkly blue colors.
(Is this the most powerful VESC board ever? Math says I should be able to hit 40kW…)
I’ve been working on this project for months. With AVS Riderfest around the corner, I’ve been in a sprint to get this board into raceable condition. Nothing like a deadline to hasten up a project.
Here’s a glorified picture thread instead! …
I know he doesn’t come on here often but I know him irl and it’s definitely worth of nomination
