Some team was using bergs on their FRC robot at Beach Blitz. JJ and I were walking through the pits, and he glanced over and recognized the tread immediately lol. Found this hilarious.

I asked where they got them, and he said “some website, haggy something??”

@ShutterShock

[ShutterShock]

That’s pretty hilarious I’d recognize it instantly too

@iNoLikeFlexyDecks

shitty boards then.

Honestly, first gen with green wheels was the best damn lowtier Chinese in that era I’ve ever had (and I’ve had many)

Continuing the convo here.

Video after replacing the esc

soaked wet, not responding

i have pics somewhere of the board completely wrapped in clingfilm because i rode through pouring rain to get something from burgerking 10km away xD

near the end of its life i did a brake test from Full speed. It took 50m to bring me to a full stop

Somewhere in here is a board I called my Frankenstein. That board has the battery and hubs from my koowheel

It’s still running to this day. I gave it away to a local who had been trying to get his board working for months and was about to let go of the hobby

[Flasher]

@xsynatic found one of the old pics

Hole in griptape is from the JBL speaker that is now on my Lacroix

[xsynatic]

[Flasher]

Also…we’ve had this conversation before

[xsynatic]

did we?

[rafaelinmissouri]

Hey kids.
I figured there is enough folks here that know about this stuff.

Is the Insta360 One X2 a fun toy for a regular guy?

I am not a content creator, or photographer, or anything like that.

Just want to play around with the kids and maybe shoot some rides!!!

Just crashing by to say, that I’m alive^^

[DeadLightning]

I’m in for one complete MBS mountain board, $200 off was too good to pass up. Gonna keep it acoustic for now but future plans are obviously to electrify. Figured I should probably learn the basics of mountain boarding before going full electric.

[Venom121212]

Just pretend you’re on a snowboard and turn with your shoulders and the board will follow! Which did you pick up?

[DeadLightning]

I got the MBS Pro 97 DW II, ended up being $400 shipped. I was originally just gonna pick up some matrix IIs and wheels but then realized it was almost the price of a new one and just said fuck it. Value per part on the thing was just too good.

[Venom121212]

Yeah definitely. I wish it shipped with fivestars instead or rockstars so you can swap to 9" if you want but 8" is a really nice size for on and offroad.

@Venom121212

Oh, I’m aware they are out there. Just appreciative to get one for free since it’s my favorite remote currently on the market

Is this the one that has signal interference issues? I loove the look of it other than that

[Venom121212]

Yeah. And to reiterate, it’s been PERFECT 99.9% of the time. There’s just this one street downtown where it shits the bed.

[xsynatic]

i still want to try it grrr.
