Well, thanks for in-detail info. Was an interesting read.
Well… from business perspective, they sort of has ‘beautiful vision’’… then again, im not sure how much power these little hubs motors have, so would be interesting to look into how many people have had problems with the motors/boards so far.
i’ve already built an endless variety of boards in my garage.
All of these koowheel clone knockoffs from Shenzen are good for business. They get people interested then they get bored and come find me. Or they want to mod them. Or they have obvious flaws that can easily be fixed and resold cough EXO cough
I think what bugs me the most is that more and more i see things that are less and less skateboard and more concept or next gen or vehicle.
i’d like to see more skateboards and less weird future shit. Shit with weird tires and handles every fucking where and covered in lights and made out of carbon and alien cunt hairs… i want to see more maple and thane out there, maybe get back to some roots. idk just pondering the universe and shit.
I want to see a plethora of boards out there which is what we are starting to see now as it grows,some people want handles or bamboo flex like boosted boards,hub motors etc.
Personal I prefer no flex and belt drive but every one is different,most people dont want the same thing everybody else has.
Cheaper boards are a good way for some people that are starting out,personally I sat back and read up on this forum waiting for components to get better and made my purchase but I wanted two things,reliability and speed and that’s what I got building my own!
we don’t have the finger sensing controller anymore → we have our own ring to control the board. Oh just wanted to say that we have maple decks.So, not everything is future shit but sometimes you have to think further.
