FULL SUSPENSION BOARDS

Dude beat me to it :dizzy_face::woozy_face:

@DavidF No freakin way you must at least get a mockup done in 3d printing for that beauty! What kind of lowrider aggressive existence are these things?! Is it 1:1 functional on render ? Or just pretty looking conceptual stuff?

I mean it would look mean as fuck with the new @Kaly wheels or Stooge gummies

I just cant believe people pay with bitcoin for a funwheel, talk about trust after uncle jeffwuneo.

I think the white and black board is waaayyy too low to be functionnal without a hard-like-rock spring which would make the whole system kind of useless
So let’s call it “pretty concepts” even if it’s mechanically doable

Maybe skateboard bushings could work for such a system then. True that is is near impossible to get proper suspension system without raising the center of gravity greatly. Soft tires seems to be the ideal method and is applicable to just about any board.

Yeah thats a big problem from design to function. Not every good looking board turns out as a good board. But keep on going, the ideas are great and you will be successful one day. Love the look of every board you do, even if its just fantasy.

Thanks, it’s really appreciated, believe me :slight_smile:
I don’t want to succeed with this (I’m not young, I have a very interesting job, and some kids to feed :stuck_out_tongue: )
Buuuut, I would love to build one of those suspension boards, just for the sake of it

Looking really good indeed


On a side note, some aliexpress sellers have these full suspension hub powered boards for like 1600 USD.

Not my first option to throw such money at it but perhaps there are some willing to risk it…

Always it is possible to replace or upgrade some components :slight_smile:

Thanks!

If someone has a Cnc and some spare aluminium, I can provide the files and my time :grin:
IDEA already rejected the… Idea… but there must be someone rich and crazy enough to collaborate on this :rofl:

those are actually planetary gear drive :eyes:
but holy damn, i imagine only hub / direct or planetary gear (not sure about regular gear drive) would work on mega suspension system like that
