We offer bolt on motor mounts to build a High Performance Electric Longboard which you can put on any longboard or skateboard deck.
Our motor mounts allow you to fit a common Remote Control (RC) Motor onto your skateboard/longboard trucks which will be powered by a belt from the motor shaft to the drive wheel.
Can bushings affect ride?
Spend your first few skate sessions either skating on flat ground or basic riding in a mini ramp.
Adjust the trucks after a few days of breaking in the new bushings.
As soon as your board starts to feel normal-no tightness or awkward pulling off to one side-tighten the trucks as you would normally ride them.
FAQ
Why do some surfers not use leashes?
One of the main functions of the longboards is that you can ”noseride” on them.
This is riding on the very front of the board.
The correct way to get to the nose is to cross step, and a surf leash can hinder that process.
It is not so much walking up to the nose but the walking back that is the problem.
What is the best size longboard for a beginner?
They minimize stretching and risk of tearing.
Different brands use different sizes of split seams.
Split seams make shorts flexible for MMA workouts.
How should a longboard slide for beginners?
30mph/50kph.
This is a respectably quick speed.
If you’ve hit 30mph, you should pat yourself on the back.
If you’re a DH skater, you can probably hit this speed on most hills with a good longboard tuck.
When can a Husky start pulling?
The main thing to be aware of is that huskies were bred to pull sleighs for hours daily so it’s in their nature to want to pull forward when you’re walking it.
Other possible reasons include being excited to get to where you’re going and being distracted by things going on around it like cars and squirrels.
Should I longboard uphill?
A common one being loose trucks.
Loose trucks can give you too much turning ability, making your set up hyper-responsive for any speed over 10-20mph.
If you’re going faster than that, then you just might want to tighten your trucks.
What longboard shape is best for tricks?
99% of beginners should start with a cruiser longboard.
If you’re looking for a beginner cruiser board, I’d recommend it being at least 30” long and 8.5” wide.
A long, wide deck will be easier to balance on.
The wheels should be large/soft (60mm-80mm / 77a-83a) so they can easily roll over cracks/bumps.
Will any trucks fit on any skateboard?
Longboard deck and trucks manufacturers use two standards for mount hole patterns, called old school and new school.
You need to ensure your deck and trucks have compatible mount patterns.
Some decks have more than one pattern so you can choose how close or far apart you want to place your trucks.
