G5 electric skateboard

I waited a long time to write this review, I truly wanted to use it before I did. I have been riding this now to and from work about 8 miles in total five days a week for almost a year. I live in Pennsylvania so you can imagine how the weather changes on a dime, from sunny to rain storm in no time, and winter weather just sucks. In this time I have had only one issue that was negative and that was how long it took to get my board fixed when it stopped working. It turned out to be that the remote stopped connecting to the board, once the issue was narrowed down they sent me a new remote quickly. This board is a beast and I mean that in the best way. I truly use this board as my transportation everywhere around town. My wife and I have only one car and I work closer to home and I’m a skater/surfer since I was a kid now I’m in my fifties so this e board just made sense to me. I love riding it the remote feelings comfortable in my hand, the electrical display is easy to see and read while riding. The ride is smooth the wheels eat up the road I roll over railroad tracks with ease and they make the rocky Pennsylvania roads easy to manage. The fact that it has four different speed levels is amazing to help those not accustomed to riding at a high speed. Yes high speed I ride on level 4 and average about 24 mph. I’m about 155lbs and average about 14 miles on a charge. Like I said I ride this daily and even though it’s not truly weather proof I use it rain, sleet, snow I have ridden through it all. I have used this board harder then most people will ever use it and the Windseeker keeps on seeking wind!.! I love this board. The only thing I want to know is how one goes about getting service this is an electric vehicle things need lubricant to keep rolling. I mean I change my bushings and bearings on my manual skateboards so how do I take care of this one?

Owned this board for several years and it has exceeded my expectations. Top speed is as advertised. With trucks tightened you can easily turn at high speeds. Battery life is solid and typically only requires a charge once a week. Board is used daily usually for 15-20 minutes at lunch. Wheels held up great but after two years could use a replacement. Overall i am very satisfied with this purchase and would recommend this to other buyers

I rarely write a review but this time, I had to! I bought a new board and received a used one, like clearly used! Someone had clearly drilled holes in it, scratches all over, used tires and wheels. Scratches on the remote... Did not go further, did not even removed the board from the box, did not have to do so to observe all damages. I cannot believe how something like that can be sent to a customer! Even if I had selected the "used" option, i would have returned it because of the bad shape of that junk. I did not want to go too crazy on price but did not want something cheap either. Considering price = quality. But I guess, I was wrong. Nowadays, even if you buy something kinda expensive, you get poor quality and cheap stuff. Extremely unsatisfied by this brand and do not recommend it to anyone, stay away if you want good quality board, even if you're a beginner like me. And definitely stay away if you want to avoid a brand that sends you used crap and pretends it is new! I am just glad I have Amazon Prime and can get free return! Thx Amazon for that!

Pretty decent board, initial set up pairing the remote to the board could use some better instructions, or a conversion table for the motor input to wheel size. A little math and some google figured it out. It is very fast and a lot of fun. Does not travel very far even on a full charge and the battery heats up relatively quick and the power suffers. Furthest I have been able to go on a full charge has been 9.6 miles round trip on mostly flat pavement. Off-roading ehh 2-3 miles max. I probably over paid.

Awesome

I ride 'goofy footed' meaning I face toward the left of the board when moving forward. To accomplish this I had to completely remove the forward foot hold, and rotate the rear foot hold strap and turn it as far out as I could. Its not perfect, but it will definitely work until I fabricate something to reverse the mounts. I want to avoid drilling the deck if I can, and the rear mounts are only accessible if you remove the battery pack, which I want to avoid doing so I don't void the warranty. As the first solution I tried just running the board in reverse, however the reverse speed is much slower than the forward speed. As someone that weighs 225 lbs the board can struggle to get going in rough terrain when in a power level of 1 or 2. The power is definitely there in levels 3 and 4. In my opinion it could use a little bit more low end torque, but so far I am very happy with this board.

This electric board is good but the belts broke on week one and two and then I had to order new belts from Amazon because the ones that were given to me had defectives. Battery life is Barely there, the ride is smooth but I shouldn’t be having to deal with a broken board at then end of all of this. In all honesty I’m not recommending anyone this board due to how it’s functionally is just not good, it breaks every 3 to 5 days and so with that being said if someone sees this, yall need to ship me a new board because this is unacceptable. The first board I got broke several times and I want my refund and on top of that a brand new board. That’s all I have to say but it is cost effective on the other hand just not reliable.

Love it!
