OMG this website is gold. I just went down a serious rabbit hole looking through all his social media pages, it was like a train wreck - I couldnā€™t stop. My favorite was definitely this number:

Video found here:
Hey guys! Owner and inventor of the solar electric longboard (w/ patent). Iā€™ve been building/converting/repairing EVs from scratch for years; COVID-19 has caused my orders and repair service...

Multiple times that is. And the promo video is a trainwreck

Fark, thereā€™s lots of attitude out there! Worst part of the video is the soundtrack, or maybe itā€™s the wobbly hop onto the boardā€¦ Music goes well with the attitude and the clothing section on the website.

Sure solar panels on the board,ā€¦ riiiiight, actually how many days of roasting in the Vegas sun are required to charge that thing, and offset the extra weight/space consumption of carrying solar panels and converter/ charger at all times. Thatā€™s the kind of R&D details youā€™d want to see on the website, but noā€¦
Instead, we find the Quote of the day: ā€œ-Sharp turns via quad suspensionā€
ā€¦a.k.a channel trucksā€¦

the only acceptable caption to this has to be ā€œI managed to make it home after the crash with some ductape I found in a 99p storeā€ :joy:

Yeah chain drive and pulley drilled straight into the wheel. Made sure it went through core. Just playing round with the little wheels Iā€™ve got some clones Iā€™ll put back on. I like chain drive- no snapped belts.

I see nothing obviously wrong with this. This is how most people started 5 years ago when there werenā€™t so many hub motor prebuilts for sale.

Agreed. Not shitty enough. Iā€™d still ride that.

This your build? Looks a lot like the one I made it if a razor scooter

Not mine but posted for sale locally. More obscure than ā€œShittyā€ diy

It also appears to be a razor scooter

The audacity to say ā€œsharp turnsā€ and then jump on, full lean, and NOT TURN
Like how you gonna sell a board(not that Iā€™ve seen any in stock) with improperly mounted channels? You could afford an entire clothing brand apparently, including 250 dollar shoes that Iā€™m pretty sure are a painted and sharpied pair of old Osirisā€™s, but a couple risers is too much? And the patent thingā€¦ Heā€™s clearly not even making boards, just holding the patent to claim if someone else builds a board that has solar charging, imo. >.> Itā€™s only as funny as it is fucked, really.
