SPEEDBOARD - $23k on Kickstarter in one day

you are comparing a scooter where you steer with your foot to a “casterboard”
this pic is wonderful


quite clearly different to me.

I would say that Dualtron Man is more akin to freeskates than a Speedbord/caster

Ah, okay! I am not an expert in the topic, just seemed interesting and somewhat related to me so thought I would share it. I haven’t seen anything even remotely comparable to the freeboard until I saw this :sweat_smile:

edit: meant to write speedboard not freeboard :sweat_smile:

sorry did I confuse you with this joke?

my joke here just about how the bord refers to the way the hype around the Speedboard company was much like the Freebord but the ability for them to be produced and sold is actually been quite a challenge for all those who attempt.

Also Tim steward worked with and designed both products, coincidence??!?

it did not but that idea is interesting, bad for high speeds fairly obviously.

there are some two wheel caster boards that ride somethinglike that but they are much smaller skate style not big AT board like the Speedboard

hope you find it cool! I would love to work on an electric one made out of the Freebord parts that I will be making electric.

basically just Freebord caster base on angled riser, plus motor slip ring stuff if electric. hmm or center e-caster… dammit whatamidoin

just found out today that these things are super old school (dirt surfer). I met a guy that use to race these (on and off road) decades ago!

And lots of modern diy electrified ones:

:man_facepalming::man_facepalming::man_facepalming::man_facepalming:nope. Ahh yes i had to break the silence. I didnt know he was back…But no, im not buying into Speedboard, sorry. I just thought by now someone had made a similar set. I built a board based on spxxdboard because of all the silence…but i dont have a fancy gold plated 3d printed stainless steel steering mechanism…
