    Hello everyone!
    I just received my carbon GT 2&1 and even if it was around midnight I wanted to try it so much so I went out for a ride! I did more than 1 km and that was my first ride ever on a skateboard!!! To be earnest it was pretty scary at the beginning, but after a while I managed to ride it and I even tried the eco mode. I really wonder if I could ever use the GT mode with the street set because the eco with the A/T set is already FAAAAAAST! Cannot wait to learn to properly ride this monster!

    Give it some time. Before you know it you'll be cruising at 30km+. Enjoy!

    Welcome. With the street wheels I mainly use ECO mode unless I am hill climbing but with the AT I use fast. GT is just alittle to much for me right now. Have fun and wear a helmet.

    Guys what do you think is better to start with A/T or Street set?

    Welcome to the club :punch:I think AT as you dont have to worry about all the bumps and cracks that can send you flying with street wheels. Ref speeds, I mainly cruise in fast and only use GT when I need a boost of speed or up a steep hill and then back down to fast. You get good combo of performance and battery life this way. Rather than GT all the time which just burns through your battery in no time! :thumbsup::beers:

    WOOOOOOOOOOW! I just finished my second ride (second ever on a skateboard) and all of a sudden I felt quite comfortable and I found myself using the eco mode and even the fast mode for few meters reaching, the supersonic speed of 19km/h!!! I was on on an off road trail (very smooth actually) and the feeling was fantastic!
    Now I understand the enthusiasm of all you guys!
    AWESOME!
