Like what?

Nope, just reduce the s-count. This is a ss 18650 enclosure and its perfect. And also extremely thin.

You could only fit about 2S4P using a single stack, there is about 20cm of usable space and that includes the ESC and BMS

Absolutely needs to be stacked double, triple, or quad, ā€” or stood on end. I do the latter on all my short decks

Maaaan how many shortboards do you have now?

How does it feel? The deck I mean. I have one but never rode it.

It feels really flat :sweat_smile:

I wanted to love itā€¦ but I donā€™t. I should have taken the time to add some concave to it before I skinned it. But I was impatient.

I was so excited about this deck.

I guess itā€™s a matter of preference. Juts curious how did you like hummie deck if you rode one? I find it somewhat similar and I had many many happy kilometers on hummie deck.

I have a 8s4p SS in my small cruiser and it fits very well.

Hey @Ricco ! Those are 10" tires right?
Did you make those chains? If you did how did you do so?

Or if you bought, where from?

Cheers

I donā€™t like flashy stuff I spent years as the only white kid trying to blend and failing 6ā€™2ā€at 14 ears like open car doors , my face makes. Good punching bag

But I like this, itā€™s awesome

Iā€™m sorry. I think you should go ahead, add the concave and reskin. I know that redoing stuff sucks but since youā€™ve already put so much effort into it, it would be a shame to end up with something you donā€™t love. The concave does make a big difference. Even the simple gripped 3D-printed pads that I use go a long way. And Iā€™m sure you can do much better than that.

ive been loving it even without the concave, which is weird cuz its way too big for me. but mines not skinned or anything yet, either. i just wish it was at least 6 or 7 inches shorter so i didnt look so silly on it xD
@glyphiks i feel like a skin might actually take away from the slight concave it does have, but youd know better than i.

Damn @xsynatic your memory be godlike.

@Ricco what modifications did you do to make them fit? Do you have to cut the bolts?
And do you install them with a deflated tire?

This is awesome. Iā€™m trying to do something similar for my board with the text being a part of the design.

Donā€™t be sorry! Itā€™s not my cup of tea, but iā€™m sure there are flat deck lovers out there!

Iā€™ve decided to sell it, definitely need the money right now, and hopefully it goes to somebody who will love it very much.

Damn, with my build if I went single stack I think I could fit 16-20 cells max, that is accounting for forward mounting the motors though.
