This sounds like one of you writing for this shit rag Finding friendship and freedom on an electric skateboard - The Verge
looks identical to the polestar deck. I rode that thing yesterday. Sure, it has some torque, but it feels like 0 thought went into ride feel.

I hated the updated deck. I told them this board just needs a kicktail to be perfect since that would add some low-speed maneuverability, but they just fucking butchered the kicktail… it’s literally useless.
This one in the photo is their old design which has some questionable concave designs but it’s much better than the new design.

This is the link for the board
These are what they also sell
If any of these are familiar looking it’s because the legit elofty is actually an OEM

Butchered kicktails that are functionally useless, but only serve as marketing bullet-points, are the worst.

compare the power to a vesc build using thane.
Their thane is also quite good, very grippy both side to side and during acceleration/braking
I second this with both hands and both legs.

its pretty slow compared to my short carbon thane board. My vesc board runs laps around it. its impressive for a hobbywing board
Not a hobbywing 
do you think the torque and the brakes are good enough for most people (excluding torque junkies like us)
not a “hobbywing” but an extremely similar esc that’s practically an OEM hobbywing

not a good idea… the top of the battery bay panel is filled with glue. I used a heatgun and tried to pry it open for like a whole afternoon, failed. Apparently how they do “customer service” is just destroy the top panel and replace a new one after servicing.

Not difficult to replace it with something else if it’s just a flat piece
