Yes for sure. You can even lock it out and experience no suspension. Its another tool for tuning front/rear grip on track as well by adjusting the preload.

Would love nothing more Moe. But given the cost of flights from down under its more likely that the first boards to race there will be owned by US customers.
We are however very keen to at least make it to the next esk8 con.

or offer a discount to someone US based if a board can be sent to AVS for a shakedown trial there first before being sent over to them lol.

I wouldn’t call ~2000AUD per head for flights cheap… That could buy a batch of prototype wheels, or a consultant to help improve our motor design.
As much as I’d love to race we are always being super careful with spending. Radium has been more of a passion project than a profitable business so far.
We may even have to cancel the R6 trucks because only 3 people pre-ordered and we need at least 10 to afford to manufacture them.
Its a tricky balance. I know racing helps grow the sport as a whole but it can also be quite expensive to run and participate in events.
But we’ll keep doing what we can in the ways of event sponsorship and making eboards as awesome as possible to convince more people to get into eskate and hopefully the sport blows up soon.

What he said…I’ll try to support. I’ll throw them on a demonseed/semendeed

R6 will go better on a demonseed cos they already got a decent split. Putting them on the semendeed would split them even further which may not be so desirable

@Tony_Stark this looks fantastic!
Easily the coolest PEV I’ve ever seen.
Have you considered making a track version of the board intended to go toe to toe with the likes of the SRB v5? Maybe 4wd + higher current pack?

@Cyanoacrylate hold your horses. If this board even comes close to performing as good as it looks and appears, it is by far the best offering ever in Eska8. Period. Let the man continue to develop.
