Your "insane" board is powered by a single maytech 6355 motor, has protruding bolts coming through the deck, looks to be powered by a space cell which are LG 18650's and not Saumsung 30q's (which Tesla use), has an offcentre motor mount that looks like it needs fixing and is sitting on a £75 ebay deck with clone gravity casted Chinese trucks. It does not do 40mph, it will manage 18mph max. Buyers beware.
Hello everyone I have built an insane custom made by hand electric skateboard! Top speed is 40 MPH! Everything works perfectly! An insane toy to own! Powered by a powerful motor and powerful Tesla battery cells! I want to sell it
Hi, I did them myself. They are from 1mm stainless steel cut by laser. If you like you can send a pair. (€10 +€4 for shipment)
mc386 - sure thing but it will be a few days as I am away for work. Basically I use a gopro, the hero 6 and no special lighting, just daylight. I have a gopro mount on the front of the board, back of the board, top of my helmet and on an arm strap of my backpack. For this one I used the rear mount on the board. I wanted the camera as close to the wheels as possible so you could hear the sound of the wheels.
Hey xraturner, can you post a pic of your go pro setup with the lights and the camera. This is a pretty cool view.
mrubillo - the go-pro mounts have really worked out well for me too. I use them for not only mounting my camera but also my lights as well. For sound I ended up getting the JBL Clip2 which I have clipped to my belt. Works well except when there is a lot of traffic noise. Enjoy.
Thanks but I removed the speaker toward the end of last summer. I use head phone similar to the ones you describe now.
Try these: AfterShokz - Trekz Air Open Ear Wireless Bone Conduction Headphones. I’m a runner and they were great!
I opted for the black motors as I’m not fussed on the gold look . I think it looks a little tacky (but just my opinion ) .
Awesome shots! Do you perhaps know where I can buy electric skateboards in South Africa? Or what ships to SA?
Nice thanks! Actually just got a notification that my package from Evolve arrived with the new 107mm ABECs which are black already!
Bring water to a boil while stirring the dye and the color enhancer (comes with polyester dye). Remove the pot from heatsource, dont wanna damage the wheels!! After setting a couple minutes, place wheels in solution and let soak with lid on for 45 minutes. Clean the wheels with soapy water and finish with an isopropyl wipe and VOILA!
Wow this board is awesome! Also those wheels turned out great! How long did you have to boil them to get them to look that good? Love the Evolve stickers too. Thanks for sharing
Are you also using ceramic bearings ? Just wondering because I know other bearings will rust if you ride in the rain unless You take them apart clean them and re-oil them.
Glad to hear Matt got his board back up and running. No doubt it ended up being a costly repair bill!!!

Huge drama losing a board into the water like that! How did the electronics cope after the submerged board was dried out and checked over? Hope it's not a write-off!
