What a handsome fella. Look, he is thinking about dicks. Donā€™t you just want to give him beer and tell him that itā€™s okay to spend all you money on skateboard parts?

Haha good catch. I always pronounce it with a ā€œZā€ when I talk about itā€¦

something really strange happened today, i was coming home from a friend and while i was going downhill i tried to brake and the brakes delayed for almost 2 seconds before sending input, i got super caught off guard first by them not working and then suddenly full brake after 2 seconds, wasnt going super fast but had to run off the board to not fall wtf

sounds like a signal issue of some kind?

happened in two different locations, the remote was on like 30% so maybe that but i dont see why that would affect it

Anyone ridden a Backfire Ranger X2? I had a go on one the other day and was very underwhelmed, there felt like a big lag at startup and relatively little torque even when it kicked in a bit. My little bucket-o-spares board ran circles around it and I think had more range (with my long-suffering 216Wh vs his two week old 454Wh)

I rode one briefly, not much to say about other than the fact it felt like a standard prebuilt from 3 years ago. Smooth and not particularly powerful, but pretty good for that era.

Maaaan Iā€™ve been eyeballing the Ranger X2/X3 big hub motor wheels for so long. I want a ā€œstealthā€ big wheel board so bad

Yeah I had been watching them a while ago, glad I didnā€™t go for them in the end. I guess 4wd might not be bad and you could get away with smaller ESCs because theyā€™re not powerful, but it sounds like a pain

Have you ridden them? I havenā€™t tried them, but itā€™s tough to imagine theyā€™d feel anywhere near as nice as real pneumies.
