Hit the stupid hole at 25 or so after trailing a car, couldn’t react in time and almost rode it out… but no cigar.
Slid about 10/15 feet
Waiting on the father unit to come collect me
Pray for my motors

Glad you’re alright. Got to love terrible pavement. Is this how KSB goes pneumatic?
holy shit, glad u r ok man
Crap dude… Glad you are okay!
On a happier note… Only 26 pounds!?
On a 3p battery?
I’m already disappointed with the 14 mi range… Idk how I’ll deal with 8mi or less with pneumies
I should have been able to ride it out, I did for a few seconds but my weight on the front wasn’t enough to quell the wobblez
24 or 23 pounds now that I’m one motor down
Glad you are alright man! Hope you can fix her up swiftly! 26 pounds… I need to weigh mine now.
Hey! Print those pulley covers already!
Also jesus what a hole, thats what he said.
They’re in queue for printing, although I think this build will be out of commission for a bit
The motor screws snapped, yet the adapter plate is stuck firm. I’ll have to somehow take it all apart and make it stronger… Somehow?
No clue how I’ll accomplish that.
Ill be praying for your mounts and motors… And you ofcourse
I think I’m fine, only my ankle still hurts. No funny swelling yet
Thank you though
Sorry, Caden. Shit luck.
It was bound to happen after I made this stupid comment
It was a good lesson I guess, I was debating on whether or not I should gear up a few rides ago… Well now I know
When I first started riding I would trail cars… bad roads taught me not to do that quite fast
Yeah
I won’t be making the same mistake again
Took off my wheel pulleys since DDs are in the pipeline
Torqueboards hardware lookin a little . <100 miles on em
My wheels are also more damaged from my fall than I remember, the edges of my drivetrain wheels look like they’ve got roadrash lol. Somehow didn’t notice it before
Shit man hope you are feeling better man we all hate those sudden holes on the streets
i know this might sound super obvious but why dont u swap ur battery for a 10s3p with Molicel P42a? i bet they will so much better in case of range and amps
Mostly financial reasons, I originally went with the 30t for it’s low resistance and impressive ability to perform, but that was nearly 8(?) months ago even though I’ve only recently got the board up and running. I didn’t know about the molicell back then
I may end up changing the pack at a later date, or I might just keep this as a short range board and build another board when I’m able to.
Thanks for the well wishes. I’m feeling better for the most part and want to get out on the road again as soon as possible Just a matter of waiting for USPS at this point
Those two phrases unfortunately dont work well together but when esk8 enthusiasts want them to work then it becomes a catastrophe
