they ARE going to commercialise it . early next year ? 10mins of “off~the~ground” feeling is gonna be awesome , provided you have strong knees to keep body vertical for that period of flight !

Here is an interesting way to do an electric skateboard for really cheap…
(i love how they have all the riding footage sped up so it looks faster than it actually is 
)
I was going to say. all the gear reduction… it would probably climb hills ok for a few mins til the battery died. but speed would be sloooooww
Another raptor riding video taken while on break.

Love your vids mate. Not enough footage of these things in the wild.
It is so nice to see some footage of the raptor for the people waiting so thanks and if possible keep more of it coming 
Keep it up! Just got my battery a few minutes ago
Edit: Could you post a vid on accelerating and braking as soon as you feel more comfortable on it? not for science, just some new videos 
Can you take the nose and tail guards off or are they glued in. Good for protection, but breaks the clean lines of the board. Also what batch were you in. The handle is anodised not the black which the first batch came in.
This board it beautiful. @onloop should be really happy with what hes done.
Yes, you can take it off (it’s part of the new shipping method). I agree it looks less clean, but I don’t mind.
I ordered mid February, so I was the second batch, but I started up the third batch thread since I wasn’t sure if it counted as the third ( as per what Onloop said prior).

@treeme Highly recommend skateboarding safety gear if your even going close to the top speed of these things. It will hurt otherwise. At a min a helmet, but if you come off those knees, elbows, and wrists are not going to be the same.

I’ve got it all in a bag which I happened to forget while I was on vacation. Appreciate the concern, though!
Just bought my raptor on June 1st I’m #3947 am I in the third batch
But you will have to wait a few weeks depending on Jason’s Info in this thread :
@treeme Let the videos coming I really appreciate every video about the raptor (makes the waiting less “painflull”).
Hey guys, I made a quick video on Memorial Day here in the states. I was off work and had nothing to do so I threw this together in like 30 min. It’s super short and only posted it on instagram but I decided to post it here because it’s slightly on topic. Let me know what you guys think.
