My Esk8s. A journal of sorts

Ok.
So a little catching up.

More action on the Rayne Crush.

First was the deck swap of shame.

Stupid me at 225 lbs bought the soft flex of this deck.
That was dumb.
Too bouncy.
So I bought the firm flex version.
Mucho more better…

Looked pretty didn’t it.

But I decided to get rid of the now red Boas and put in the TB 100mm 74a.

That was an interesting adventure since I could not get the 3d servisas pulley off of one of the Boas…

I like the look with the black

I also like feel of the TB wheels much better.

They are gummier and grippier and seem more comfortable on rougher roads.

So that was a good change…

Off course on my second ride with the black wheels I get weird shit happening with the motors and the controllers…
These are my old Flipksky 6374s that have seen a ton of miles. They have served me well…
So I decided to get some new TB 6374 motors.

When changing out the motors one of the bullet connectors seemed kinda of too easy to take off… So that may have been the whole issue and I will try to run the Flipksky motors again on another board.

So.
Tons of updates on this set up.

And now it has been running really well

I really like the deck.
Decent little bit of flex without too much bounce.
Great concave and a nice standing platform even though it is smaller than the other big boards I have.

The wheels are feeling pretty damn good.
The motors are really smooth.

And I can get a solid 17 miles out of the 10s4p pack.

So this guy is looking good and is now pretty much on daily rotation.

Hooray.
