Electric skateboards are a sweet way to get around and have fun. However, people often say, why not get some exercise and just kick around without using an electric motor? Electric skateboards may seem like a "lazy" way of transportation when compared to a calorie burning non-electric skateboard, but for those that want to get to their destination faster, or have some help going up those long hills, having a motor may be more appealing.
With most electric skateboards you can still kick the board yourself. If you want to save your battery and burn some calories, you can kick and save the battery for when you need it, such as for a hill or for when you need an extra boost.
Electric skateboards are loads of fun. Who says going to school, to your next class, to your office, or wherever has to be boring. Why not jazz up your commute and zoom along on an electric skateboard? It definitely beats walking.
E-Glide makes quality electric skateboards, and at the time this article was written, they currently have five models. All of their boards, besides one, can go up to 20 mph in just four seconds. The DC-36 is a smaller and lighter model that is more affordable, but it goes slower than the others. Their boards (besides the DC-36) can go 12-15 miles per charge. To control the speed, each board has a controller that is connected to the board via a cable. They say they use a cable because wireless controllers can be susceptible to interference.
If you are looking for an electric skateboard that uses a wireless hand held controller, check out Exkate's Altered lineup. The top of the line models made by Exkate can go 19-20 mph in only four to five seconds, and can go 10-12 miles on a charge. The speed and braking of their electric skateboards are controlled by a wireless hand held controller. Exkate also has an electric skateboard for rougher terrain that is complete with knobby tires.
While some models can come with a hefty price tag, they aren't at all expensive to charge. If you compared the cost per mile of an electric skateboard versus a car or other gas burning vehicle, you'd be amazed at how much cheaper electricity is!
Whether you are looking for an electric skateboard for transportation, fun, or both, E-Glide and Exkate offer a nice selection, all ranging in deck size and shape, maximum speed, weight, and range. Do your research and pick the right one for you, then hop on and enjoy the ride.
