The best adult electric skateboards

Evolve Carbon GTR All Terrain

Rating: 4.9

Evolve Carbon GTR All Terrain

This electric skate is unlikely to impress anyone with its appearance. It has a black color, there are no inserts of a different color. This design can be called boring. But what difference does it make when the deck is made of hydrocarbon! The use of such material allowed the manufacturer to achieve a relatively small mass – the scales under the electric skate will show 9.8 kg. And this is not the shortest wheelbase of 37 inches.

The manufacturer claims that the wheels and deck used here are capable of supporting even a 100-kilogram person. As for the speed indicators, then the maximum from the motor used here can be expected to accelerate to 36 km / h. Of course, it's terribly fast and dangerous, even if you have all kinds of protection. Therefore, we recommend limiting the performance of the 3000 watt motor by selecting a lower speed with the remote control. By the way, the accessory works with the electric skate using Bluetooth, there are no interruptions in communication.

The harness used here is 12 inches wide. The wheels turned out to be quite large – their diameter reaches 178 mm. The deck cannot be called especially thin. But this is understandable, because it contains a battery with a capacity of 14 Ah. If you drive exclusively on a flat surface, then a full charge should be enough to overcome 30 km. Not bad for an electric skateboard, which is unlikely to be used for such a long run! And do not forget that this model can also enter a hill – as much as possible, you can climb a 14-degree slope.

Advantages

  • Able to withstand a heavy person;
  • The deck is made of hydrocarbon;
  • Four power modes are available;
  • The remote works on Bluetooth;
  • You can accelerate to tremendous speed;
  • Decent mileage on a full charge;
  • You can climb serious slides.

disadvantages

  • Charging time reaches 5 hours;
  • High price;
  • Boring design.

Manefire nst

Rating: 4.8

Manefire nst

Another very expensive electric skate. He also has a completely black color. But here at least the shape of the deck is close to that used on ordinary skateboards. However, some would call the design boring anyway.

It is curious that this is one of the most reliable electric skateboards. Even an overweight adult can easily ride on it. The maximum declared as much as 130 kg load! And there is no doubt about this figure, because the deck here is mostly made of Canadian maple. Surprisingly, such a material had almost no effect on the mass of the electric skate itself. It is only 8.4 kg. This is a great result!

The Manefire NST shows that an electric skate doesn't have to have an overpowering motor. Quite weak motors can also achieve high speed, especially if they are installed in large numbers. In this case, two 600 W motors are used. This is enough to accelerate to a speed of 45 km / h. Of course, only an experienced athlete should ride this way, and even then only on the most flat track, while the rest are recommended to limit the available speed so as not to harm themselves. The choice of the speed mode is carried out using the remote control. What technology it uses to send its signal is not reported.

You might think that with such weak motors it is impossible to overcome serious climbs. However, the maximum manufacturer declared 30-degree slopes, which seems an incredible figure. For movement, wheels are used here with a diameter of 90 mm and a width of 51 mm. As for the entire electric skateboard as a whole, its dimensions are 970x240x150 mm. They cannot be called small. But how else if the manufacturer had to place a 6.6 Ah lithium-ion battery inside? And despite this parameter, a full charge should only be enough for a run of 25-30 km. A little bit, but who rides an electric skateboard a longer distance?

Included with the Manefire NST you will receive a standard kit, which includes a warranty card, operating instructions, charger and the already mentioned remote control.

Advantages

  • Low weight;
  • Excellent lifting capacity;
  • You can overcome serious inclines;
  • Decent mileage on a full charge;
  • Incredible speeds can be achieved;
  • Wheel sizes are close to traditional ones.

disadvantages

  • Recharging may take 4 hours;
  • Very high cost.

Hoverbot LB-2R

Rating: 4.7

Hoverbot LB-2R

Hoverbot knows its business. It produces excellent electrical propulsion vehicles that also have a remarkable appearance. So the Hoverbot LB-2R electric skateboard has a unique design. First, it is painted in different colors. Secondly, there is a bright manufacturer's logo on its deck. Thirdly, the deck has two cutouts to make this piece memorable.

The manufacturer of this model has tried to ensure that his creation hardly differs from traditional skateboards. This is why the Hoverbot LB-2R has a very thin deck made of wood. The battery with a capacity of 4.4 Ah is located under the deck, in the back of it – the unit with it is almost invisible. Well, the blue wheels here almost do not differ from those that ordinary skateboards have. Alas, because of this, you will not be able to climb a slope whose angle exceeds 15 degrees.

The battery used here charges in 240 minutes. The mains adapter connection will be required after the electric skate has covered approximately 22 km. This result can be even less if a very heavy person stands on the Hoverbot LB-2R. The manufacturer stated the maximum load of 130 kg, which can be considered an excellent result.

This instance is driven by a 1000 watt motor. Its capabilities are quite enough to accelerate to speeds up to 30 km / h. It should be noted that the unit with motor and battery is splash-proof to IP54. This means that you can easily overcome even puddles! Another important feature of this model is the quick battery change. Isn't that a reason to buy an extra battery, thereby increasing your available mileage?

Advantages

  • The holes in the deck can be used as handles;
  • There is some moisture protection;
  • Fast battery replacement available;
  • Interesting appearance;
  • You can accelerate to tremendous speed;
  • Can withstand even a very difficult person;
  • Weight does not exceed 7 kg.

disadvantages

  • You can't go far on a full charge;
  • Large inclines cannot be overcome;
  • Charging takes 4 hours;
  • High price.

Airwheel M3

Rating: 4.7

Airwheel M3

This electric skateboard has a familiar dark gray painted deck. Its size is 790×198 mm, and it has smooth curves on almost all sides. The back side is also tilted, making it easier to lift the skate with your foot. The deck used here should be able to withstand a 100 kg person without any problems. Practice shows that heavier people do not ride such vehicles. One can only regret that the deck was created from plastic.

The Airwheel M3 is very different from regular skateboards. The fact is that very large wheels are used here. It is they who should be thanked for the fact that this model perfectly overcomes even some irregularities. But the wheels, motor and battery had a big impact on the weight, which was as much as 11.5 kg. And let's not forget that the electric skate will spend some time in your hands.

In terms of value, the Airwheel M3 will delight many buyers. The fact is that this electric skate is much cheaper than the models discussed above. But the manufacturer managed to achieve such a price tag only through the use of budget components. For example, a not very powerful electric motor is installed here. With a 350 W motor, you can only accelerate to 20 km / h. Of course, this is enough for an ordinary person. But if you are an experienced rider, then you will definitely want more. As for the battery, with a not very energy-efficient motor with a capacity of 4.5 Ah, it is only enough for a 15-kilometer run. Fast recharging and the ability to replace the battery somehow save the day. Also, the components used here have a negative impact on overcoming inclines. The maximum you can climb to a 15-degree rise. Or slightly more if the rider's weight does not exceed 60 kg.

To adjust the speed, a 2.4GHz remote control is used here. The range of its action reaches 10 m, so problems should not arise. Also, the owner of Airwheel M3 is recommended to install a special application on a smartphone, which will record a variety of statistics.

It remains to add that a standard kit awaits you. It includes the electric skate itself, the aforementioned remote control, warranty card, instruction manual and charger.

Advantages

  • Withstands heavy people;
  • Good cross-country ability;
  • The battery is easy to change;
  • Implemented application support;
  • The remote works without any complaints;
  • Great design;
  • A modular design is used.

disadvantages

  • Decent weight;
  • Not the best mileage on a full charge;
  • I would like a slightly more powerful motor;
  • The deck is made of plastic.

PowerDrive E2

Rating: 4.6

PowerDrive E2

This electric skateboard shows that such vehicles can be both very light and fast enough. Scales under PowerDrive E2 will show only 7.8 kg. It was possible to achieve such a mass due to the use of a light type of wood – the deck here is made of Canadian maple. Moreover, such a tree is known for its durability, due to which the electric skate must withstand even a 100-kilogram rider.

The shape of the PowerDrive E2 is very similar to a regular skateboard. But in terms of speed, he still has no equal. I can't even believe that this instance is capable of accelerating to 42 km / h! With this parameter, it is even difficult to imagine how many revolutions per minute the 83 mm wheels used here make!

This acceleration of the electric skate is provided by two 350-watt motors. They work with a lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 4.4 Ah. A full charge is enough for 22 kilometers. It's nice that the battery can be charged in just a couple of hours.

You can easily notice that there is a small cutout in the deck. It is not made for beauty, but so that PowerDrive E2 can be held in hand without any special inconvenience. This model is also capable of boasting a remote control. It is with its help that the speed is regulated. But the electric skate does not have moisture protection. Therefore, it is better not to risk it, puddles should be avoided.

Advantages

  • Fast charging;
  • There is a carrying handle;
  • Able to accelerate to incredible speed;
  • Very light weight;
  • Convenient control using the remote control;
  • Withstands very difficult people;
  • Nice design.

disadvantages

  • Very high cost;
  • The run cannot be called a record one.

Hoverbot UB-1

Rating: 4.5

Hoverbot UB-1

Hoverbot is known for its mono-wheels. She also produces good electric skateboards. And also her engineers thought of combining these two vehicles! As a result, the Hoverbot UB-1 was born. Formally, this is still an electric skate. But it doesn't have the usual four wheels. Instead, a fairly large unicycle is used, which will be located between the rider's legs. And also this instance is distinguished by the presence of many LED lights around the perimeter of the 'board'.

When creating this model, the manufacturer focused on the movie 'Back to the Future 2'. He tried to release a vehicle that would seem fantastic and unusual. At the same time, in many respects, the Hoverbot UB-1 is not inferior to more traditional electric skates. For example, this model can easily support a person whose weight reaches 120 kg. This was achieved through the use of high-strength materials. Also, the manufacturer tried to introduce at least some kind of moisture protection. It meets the IP54 standard here, which indicates the ability to drive through puddles.

This instance is powered by a 500-watt brushless motor. Its power is enough to overcome inclines with an angle of rise of 15 degrees. The only pity is that the motor is very heavy. And the very design of an electric skate with a built-in monowheel could not turn out to be light. Scales under Hoverbot UB-1 will show 9.5 kg. Partly because of this, the range of this model is only 18 km. Also, this parameter was influenced by the battery, whose capacity is only 2.9 Ah. A sound signal warns of the imminent end of the charge. Unfortunately, there is no quick battery change option. But on the other hand, support for fast charging is implemented! The battery used here can be fully charged in just one hour!

It remains to add that this electric skate is capable of accelerating to 30 km / h. An impressive result! In this case, the speed change is carried out exclusively by transferring the center of gravity, no remote control is required.

Advantages

  • Easy control;
  • Includes bright neon lighting;
  • There is moisture protection;
  • Very fast charging;
  • Will withstand even a very heavy rider;
  • Very high speed can be achieved;
  • Implemented support for the application on a smartphone.

disadvantages

  • The charge is only enough for 18 km;
  • An electric skate cannot be called completely light.

Xiaomi Action Smart Electric Stateboard

Rating: 4.4

Xiaomi Action Smart Electric Stateboard

A Chinese company Xiaomi also presented its own electric skateboard. As you might guess, Action Smart Electric Stateboard is officially sold exclusively on the territory of the Middle Kingdom. Therefore, the easiest way to purchase this model is through Chinese online stores. Interestingly, the purchase will not be too expensive. The product Xiaomi is noticeably cheaper than the competitors discussed above, especially those who opened our rating. But he also looks – noticeably sloppy.

As expected, this model is designed for adult riders. The maximum declared load is 100 kg. Four 83 mm wheels are used for movement here. The speed is controlled by a small remote control that sends signals to Bluetooth. However, this accessory may still seem large to someone. For you to understand, it will no longer fit in the same pocket as a smartphone.

Of course, Xiaomi Action Smart Electric Stateboard supports smartphone synchronization. A special application will contain a variety of statistics, which you can familiarize yourself with at any time. And this instance is also capable of boasting bright LED-backlighting. You can complain about the lack of moisture protection. The need to save money prevented its implementation. Therefore, we do not recommend driving through puddles, let alone driving in the rain.

A cheap electric skateboard cannot run on a full charge for any length of time. This model confirms this rule. The 500-watt motor drains the battery in just 12 kilometers. I am glad that at least you need to charge the battery for a relatively short time – only an hour and a half. As for the maximum speed, you can accelerate to 23 km / h on this electric skateboard.

Advantages

  • Fast charging supported;
  • Low cost;
  • There is a backlight;
  • Withstands heavy riders;
  • Can interact with a mobile application;
  • The weight is only 5 kg.

disadvantages

  • The battery runs out quickly;
  • It is better not to drive on the ground;
  • Not particularly spectacular overclocking.

The best children's electric skateboards

MaxFind MAX-C

Rating: 4.9

MaxFind MAX-C

Another electric skateboard, which almost does not differ from the usual 'board'. There is even a bend in one of the ends, thanks to which you can effectively lift the skate with your toes. In terms of color, there are no complaints about this vehicle either. It is curious that this is a rare case when the manufacturer decided to release four color versions of his creation at once. Not only the color of the deck edges can differ, but also the color of the front wheels – be sure to pay attention to this before buying.

This model is powered by a 500-watt motor. Despite the top speed of only 20 km / h, a very sprightly acceleration awaits you. And the bent back end allows you to perform simple tricks – in particular, you can jump onto curbs. But we still do not recommend doing something like that. The fact is that the deck used here may not withstand a load of more than 80 kg. And it can easily arise upon landing.

Of course, this electric skate has a battery in it. Its capacity does not exceed 2.2 Ah. The choice for such a modest battery was made to keep the MaxFind MAX-C lightweight. A full charge of this battery provides approximately 20 kilometers. Next, the electric skate needs to be connected to the complete network adapter. I am glad that the battery will be fully charged in just 60 minutes! You will also receive a remote control included with this model. It is with its help that the speed is regulated. It also needs to be charged from time to time, the corresponding cable is also included.

It remains to add that this electric skate uses 85A wheels. Their size is 70×50 mm. In this regard, the vehicle is not too different from traditional 'boards'.

If you haven't figured it out yet, MaxFind MAX-C is a good kids' electric skate. For an adult, this model will seem too small. And there is a risk that the soundboard located here simply will not withstand it.

Advantages

  • The platform is made of carbon;
  • Emery coating prevents feet from slipping;
  • Easy control using the remote control;
  • Very fast charging;
  • There are several color options;
  • Not very high cost;
  • Weight does not exceed 3.7 kg.

disadvantages

  • Not the largest carrying capacity;
  • Not a very capacious battery.

Razor RipStik Electric

Rating: 4.8

Razor RipStik Electric

One of the most unusual electric skateboards. While many are similar to traditional skateboards, the Razor RipStik Electric is not. Here you will find a very large rear wheel located under the elegant curve of the deck. In front, this model is equipped with two small rollers. Above them in the deck you can find a cutout – it should be used as a carrying handle.

Razor RipStik Electric can be presented to your child. The manufacturer of this electric skateboard claims that its creation is primarily intended for children aged 7-8 years. This is evidenced by the maximum load, which does not exceed 65 kg here. The manufacturer also severely limited the speed – with the help of RipStik Electric, you can accelerate to only 16 km / h.

This model has very modest characteristics. The rear smart wheel is only powered by a 100-watt motor. Not the greatest power, but it is quite enough to set in motion a skate with a child. A full charge of the battery will last for 50 minutes of riding. The manufacturer does not mention the distance covered. This is understandable, because it is unlikely that the child will go on an electric skate somewhere far away.

A foot starter is used to start the engine. Further, motion control is assigned to the included remote control. This accessory transmits signals using a 2.4 GHz radio.

The Razor RipStik Electric deck was created from reinforced polymer fiber. Like most other electric skates, this model is maintenance-free. The scales under this instance will show 6.94 kg.

Advantages

  • Unique appearance;
  • Convenient control using the remote control;
  • Reliable materials were used;
  • Modest weight;
  • Not very high cost.

disadvantages

  • The motor may seem weak;
  • Designed exclusively for children;
  • Not a very large continuous power reserve;
  • Unpleasant squealing sound of the engine.

Razor Cruiser

Rating: 4.7

Razor Cruiser

This electric skateboard is not very different from its traditional motorless counterpart. The deck used here is made of Canadian maple, which makes it very durable. Behind there is some bend, thanks to which you can easily take this specimen in your hands. It is also used for jumping, but it is not recommended to make them – a block with an engine and a battery located under the deck can catch on the curb. The product also received a rough patch. Therefore, the legs will definitely not slip. Also, the electric skate deck has three decorative cutouts.

The manufacturer recommends buying this copy for a child over 7 years old. He will definitely like such a vehicle. He won't even complain about the weight, which is only 4.8 kg. Interestingly, the deck and 80mm polyurethane wheels are capable of supporting even a 100kg person. But adults will not be delighted with either the size of this model or the top speed of just 16 km / h. And will a motor with a power not exceeding 125 W be able to roll an adult?

As for the battery, its capacity is only 2150 mAh. A full charge should be enough for 40 minutes of riding. Interestingly, the battery is UL2271 certified, which makes it possible to transport the electric skate on an airplane.

Based on the reviews, the kids really love the Razor Cruiser. I am glad that this is one of the most reliable electric skateboards designed for children. This model can upset only at its own cost. Not every parent will dare to spend 27 thousand rubles.

Advantages

  • Looks like a traditional skateboard;
  • The deck turned out to be as reliable as possible;
  • Easy control using the remote control;
  • Very light weight;
  • High quality bearings are used.

disadvantages

  • Designed exclusively for children;
  • Not the fastest speed;
  • Not the most capacious battery;
  • High price.

Archos SK8

Rating: 4.6

Archos SK8

Another electric skateboard with a cutout. In this case, it is located on the side. Its purpose is familiar – it is thanks to the cutout that the 'board' is easy to carry in one hand. There are also no particular difficulties due to the fact that the weight of the vehicle does not exceed 6.8 kg.

Canadian maple was used to create the deck Archos SK8. The upper surface has a rough coating, thanks to which the feet do not slip under any conditions. There is also a manufacturer's logo. Someone will say that he makes this model more unique. In the characteristics it is stated that the deck can withstand an 80-kilogram load. This parameter indicates that the electric skate is intended for teenagers and not for adults. Several other specifications speak of this as well.

It uses a 150-watt solution as the engine. It is only enough to overcome 10-degree slopes, which is saddening. If we talk about speed, then the youngest rider can reach 15 km / h. The battery is powered by a 2 Ah battery. Alas, the engine located here cannot be called energy efficient, so the charge will run out after you have covered 5 km.

On the ground, the electric skate stands on 70mm green-painted wheels. Well, the speed change is carried out using a remote control that sends signals by radio communication at a frequency of 2.4 GHz. In a word, in this regard Archos SK8 does not differ from many 'adult' brothers.

Advantages

  • Modest weight;
  • Reliable soundboard made of maple;
  • Legs do not slip at all;
  • Minimum cost;
  • Convenient remote control.

disadvantages

  • Not a very powerful engine;
  • I would like more speed;
  • This model is intended for teenagers;
  • Charging time is 2.5 hours;
  • Modest mileage from full charge.

Conclusion

This is a list of the best electric skateboards available at the moment. At the same time, we tried to tell only about those models that can be purchased in Russian online stores. Now you just have to decide how much money you are willing to spend, as well as how much power you need.
