ELECTRIC SKATEBOARDS

The working principle of electric skateboards mainly relies on the synergy of components such as electric motors, electronic speed controllers (ESC) and batteries. Compared with traditional skateboards, electric skateboards have electric motors installed at the bottom to provide power, and riders can smoothly accelerate and decelerate through a handheld remote control.

1. Build Quality First

• Look for bomb-proof materials (aircraft-grade aluminum/carbon fiber)
• Portability sweet spot: 14-18 lbs for carry-friendly power

2. Match The Board To Your Lifestyle

• Speed demons: 25+ mph boards with dual motors
• City commuters: Compact decks with cloud wheels for pothole protection
• Cruise kings: Longboard decks for buttery smooth rides
• Off-road beasts: All-terrain tires that eat gravel for breakfast

3. Performance Must-Haves

• Battery: 15+ mile range (real-world testing, not lab numbers)
• Motors: 1000W+ for hill-climbing like a boss
• Charge time: Under 3 hours (unless you love coffee breaks)

4. Ride Tech That Matters

• Regen braking: Get extra miles while stopping
• Remote: OLED screen > basic triggers (trust us)
• Trucks/Wheels: 90mm+ for rough streets, 150mm for trails

Hub vs Belt Drive Showdown

• Hub motors: "Set it & forget it" low-maintenance cruising
• Belt drives: "Drag race ready" acceleration & torque

Pro Tip: Demo ride if possible - your stance doesn't lie!

Electric skateboards come in three main flavors: smooth-riding Electric Longboards for carving streets, rugged All-Terrain Electric Skateboards that conquer any surface, and nimble Street Boards built for urban agility - each packing serious power but tailored for different riding styles.

• Electric Longboards

Designed for stability and extended rides, Electric Longboards feature longer decks, enhancing rider balance and maneuverability. These boards prioritize comfort and control, ideal for commuters seeking a smoother, more controlled journey. Featuring powerful motors and extended battery life, they offer an enjoyable riding experience, making them suitable for those aiming for a balance between distance, stability, and performance.

• All Terrain Skateboards

Built with durable construction and rugged wheels, All-Terrain Skateboards are designed to conquer various surfaces such as gravel, grass, or uneven terrain. These boards prioritize versatility, allowing riders toexplore off-road environments comfortably. With sturdy builds and enhanced traction, they provide the flexibility to adventure beyond traditional skateboarding terrains, catering to those seeking outdoor exploration and versatility in their rides.

• Street Boards

Tailored for urban agility, Street Boards feature compact decks, ideal for navigating crowded streetswith ease and precision. These boards prioritize maneuverability, making quick turns and navigating tight spaces effortlessly. With responsive handling and a focus on control, they cater to riders looking for a nimble and agile experience, perfect for urban commuting or city cruising.

Electric skateboard legality varies by region. In many places, they're legal for private use but restricted in public areas. It's crucial to check local regulations regarding speed limits, age restrictions, and where they're permitted for safe riding.

While it's possible to ride an electric skateboard in light rain, doing so increases the risk of reduced traction and loss of grip on wet surfaces. Wet conditions can compromise the board's performance, potentially leading to safety hazards. 

Electric skateboards commonly feature braking systems. Regenerative braking or electronic braking is used, activated through handheld controllers or weight shifting to slow down or stop the board. 

Electric skateboards are controlled using handheld wireless remotes, often equipped with throttle controls. These controls are only for acceleration and braking, granting riders the flexibility to easily adjust their speed while riding. The convenience of these remotes enhances the overall riding experience, offering users precise control over their electric skateboard

The battery life of an electric skateboard depends on factors like battery capacity, rider weight, terrain, and speed. Generally, MAXFIND skateboards last between 20 to 50 miles per charge, varying widely among different models and usage conditions. Regularly charging and proper maintenance can extend the battery's lifespan.
