Yesterday went for quick test run. Finally the sun is shining here in the North

How else would you be able to screw enclosures onto your board?
ah right wood inserts. Well more research to do now…haha

Yup! I think the trickiest part when building the e-skate is the fitting the components to the deck 
The inserts that are in the picture are these http://m.ebay.com/itm?itemId=190954008273

You can see big grin on my friends face when he is testing my Bouncer. I think we have a new DIYer

Did a distance test run with the Bouncer. I had already used the board for 3km before this so the starting voltage was 4.0V per cell. After 11.5km it was 3.8V per cell and when the soft cut-off started at 17.10km it was 3.24V per cell. I had set the cut-off at 3.3V but there was really steep hill at the end so I think that messes it up. I forgot to press continue on my watch when I continued after the 11km mark so the data is missing 1km.
So with 12S 6000mAh, dual Carvon V2 at fairly flat ground with 68kg rider I would say this setup can do 20km with one charge. Have to do next test with fully charged battery and with no breaks.

Still quite cold weather but carving keeps you warm

wow that range is amazing! How would you say the accl is with the 25C LiPos.
I’m on edge between a LiPo setup and a premade cell like torqueboards or space cell
Thanks @broshi !
The acceleration is OK when starting from a stand still. It is slower than a mono 6374 geared setup but after it is going something like 15km/h it lights up the turbo booster rockets and and it just keeps accelerating to something like 70km/h. I have not tested how long it keeps accelerating because I dont want to die.
Are you telling me that those wheel motors can move you from standstill to +70Km/h? video or didn´t happen
Have not tried the top speed. Yet 
Any ideas for good testing place here in Finland?
I like to use karting rings, easy way to check how long you can get before low voltage cuts off and its fun to take lap times.

I plan on spiltting my build to two. This deck will get the Jacobs hubs and I will install the carvons to the more sturdier deck from Reindeer Longboards new DH-deck, the Lynx 
% Finnish birch

Today made a new top speed record inside a velodrome with this build, 52km/h (according to Suunto Traverse GPS watch). The velodrome was in a bad shape and had still plenty of room on the throttle
Some video footage of that session, had to leave the camera off when doing the fast lap.

Lol are you riding or computing lol
e-boarding is getting to be like lunching the space shuttle
I need to find a velodome … Looks too fun
