This is the electric skateboard for the beginner that accelerates to a top speed of 8 mph. Powered by a 24-volt battery, the skateboard's 150-watt motor provides enough horsepower to propel riders up to 143 lbs. over smooth terrain--even uphill. At a hefty 26 lbs., it is built as a classic skateboard with dual kicktails, 4"-diameter solid urethane wheels, and flexible trucks that allow you to carve 8' turns. A patented handheld wireless trigger remote provides three-speed control; pulling the trigger accelerates and moving it forward brakes. The 6" wide 12-ply maple deck is textured with a non-skid surface that provides reliable footing. The rechargeable battery can be removed and provides a range of six miles from a three-hour charge using the included adapter. Ages 8 and up with adult supervision; helmet and protective gear should be worn at all times. 33" L x 12" W x 8" H. (26 lbs.)
