SKP Magnetic 45 its HERE!!!

Yeah they are extremely grippy but talking about 1100Nm it’s going to be hard for anything to grip, my logic comes from automotive drag racing, you want super soft (both compound and the actual carcass of the tire) for lots of deformation to get as much grip as possible. I guess a counter to this would be something like a WRC that can launch like crazy but they still have softer sidewalls than the stooge.

Something else super important to mention is that comparing to the Tesla and other cars like it very advanced VTC and launch control systems we dont have

Also you don’t have the stickiness of a drag strip

Finding an actual drag strip to skate on sounds like the easiest of all the engineering problems here :crazy_face:

Yeah, that’s not hard at all, Artem has one about 2 miles from his house, he just needs to sneak on there when no one watching to get some testing data.

I lived by one that you could take a car on if you paid them a reasonable amount. That was in Saint Louis metro, but I bet there are more. Also I’d just put the skateboard inside the car… at first… until you’re in

I’m just not aware of anything currently available that will stick as well. Plus the contact patch of the BRPs bigger than anything else available.

Closest would probably be some low psi tubeless wheels


These are what I was thinking of, ideally with a softer sidewall and compound, but they are absolutely massive

Kool beanz - I am shockingly and easily under the threshold with your board - so I’m sure we’ll work something out with myself breaking some kind of record (not bone) whilst living and breathing burnt Urethane - euuugh, ok, Rubber, perhaps . . . .

Guess I’ll have to learn about building batteries pretty fast then eh ?

Split angles FTW !


Is there anyone on this forum who’s UK based who may know someone wanting a Harley. I’ve been meaning to sell it for a few years. Thanx for the nudge Skyart - lol

Will happily remove unnecessary organs and limbs such as an arm (only need one for a remote, right!?) a kidney, my toes, ears, and anything else i can think of, as well as starve myself for a year, with the minor caveat that i get to keep the board if i survive testing

I use it to press the kindpin bolts into the baseplates and bearings into hubs. Very useful and inexpensive tool
