I wanna here the stupidest shit you have seen while E-Boarding. What are other people doing? What are the drivers doing? What are other Eboarders doing?
Ill start
Today I was riding with a great rider, downhills with me all the time but is an absolute bone head when it comes to his surroundings. We are doing mabye about 20 25 and a speed bump is coming up. I yell really loud for him to watch out, but its too late. He goes flying up my board he was riding does a 180 and lands flat on the top and his ass is sliding down the road. Made for a great sight but boy was I thinking
Not on an esk8, but was riding on my analog and I had just watched the first fast and furious. There was a semi parked at a 90 degree angle to the path I was taking…I’ll let your imaginations pick up from here.
I made it half way under and thought I was further past and came up out of my slide too soon and cracked my head on the underside of the trailer.
I work like a block away from a train station so I see a lot of PEVs ride by after work to get to the train. I’ve seen e-scooters hit cars and vice versa because no one stops or even slows down where the sidewalk meets with a parking lot entrance.
But the stupidest thing I’ve seen is one guy looking down on his phone riding a OneWheel with no gear slamming into a light pole right outside the office window. OneWheel went tumbling as they always do and he was on his butt.
There were 3 of us going 20+mph in close proximity. The guy in front was on a EUC and he decides to slam on the brakes mid corner because he saw a hot girl he wanted to talk to.
Well us two in the back crashed right into him in front of the hot girl, she did ask me if I was okay and not him lol.
I was not about to slam on the brakes mid corner I dont have the same grip a EUC I would had slid out and possibly hit the girl too.
There was a guy on a lime scooter asking if I could go fast with my board, brand new diy at that time, so I had no idea how powerful it really was. I came from a hobbywing hub motor board. I always full throttle on those as the torque isn’t that great.
I made a full throttle on my DiY (wet ground), got wobbles and fell at 49,9kph, quite a shame I never reached 50 at this point.
@Sender and I were riding the brand new @Kaly’s @ Thunder in the Mountians. I was riding on this perfect fine gravel path doing about 15-20mph. Tim is to my left a ways on a side walk iirc. So I see him pulling away and I gun it. Gave it a little bump to speed up and it got squirrely lol. It went left then shoot right. Left me looking like Wile E Coyote.
Landing on left side rolled once or twice and popped up. Few scrapes but nothing serious.
Lesson: don’t be a dumbass and show off lol. Fun times.
Was going about 30mph my first day with my eboard. Some guy ran a stop sign, wasn’t paying attention and pulled out infront of me. I landed two steps (somehow managed not to snap an ankle) then tucked and rolled. I ordered my helmet that day with prime so I thought it would be fine if I rode it one day without it. I can’t believe I didn’t crack my head and end up in the hospital
Couple years ago, I was riding an ATV for the first time. I was going down a 3 mile loop. My brother heard me coming back then all of a sudden there was no noise. He found me blacked with the ATV on top of me, covered in blood and gas. Shattered my nasal bone and broke my arm along with major concussion. Till this day I still don’t remember any of it
My friend was chasing me on a Boosted Mini I let him borrow… I was on my diy and we were on a mostly private road. I slowed down and turned off to this little gravel road to drink from the water I had in my backpack. Then he comes up, slams on the breaks and fly’s off the front of the board into a perfect 180 and lands on his ass.
2nd one, me and some friends were in Palm Springs for sports. We went to this restaurant and started analog skating down this golf cart path. We came upon this super steep hill that was 20in wide and at the bottom was a super rickety bridge. My stupid friend decided to bomb it and hit the rickety fence, went flying off straight into a curb and somersaults into the grass…
