I’m Christoffer from Sweden, I have snowboarded since I was a kid and I am a pretty decent longboarder but since kids, wife, house and all that got in the way a few years back.
Now I feel the urge to ride again and I bought a Landyachtz drop hammer this summer.
Now I’m in the market for the extra push of two electric motors. I have been looking extra hard on the Trampa Orrsom. With battery it will cost my roughly 2k and that seems reasonable for what looks like a quality build. But since I don’t have that much time on my hands I don’t know if I can justify the cost of buying something brand new.
It would also help if you clarify whether you want “street wheels” (aka urethane) or “off-road wheels” (aka pneumatics). They can both be used on the street. The orrsom can do both… But there are other, better (read as: non-trampa) decks that do both as well.
Please define your expectations from your board, speed, range, which acceleration & type of use. I suspect since Sweden you might want pneumatic tyres wheels (wet roads or nature trails?).
2k budget I think is a comfortable budget for a dual motor AT setup plus very big battery, maybe a stretch toward a AWD and mid size battery.
First of all I want to be able to carve on the streets like I do on my longboard.
I would like
A board that looks like a switchblade with urethane wheels, pretty stiff allround deck with trucks that can take a high speed without wobbles and still be able to carve.
It would be great if it came with AR wheels or that it is possible to buy and use on the same set up.
45 km/h top speed would be sufficient and 30-40 km range.
I prefer stuff that doesn’t break easily before high end stuff.
High quality and luxury finish, meets your specs, is brand new. It is not well known but Hoyt has a solid reputation around here for their parts. Notably the remote. You can order the deck with glass frit grip and forget.
