Electric Bikes -N- Scooters Presents: The Top 10 Electric Skateboards in the World!!!

RE: The latest top 10 electric skateboards for 2008

Every now and then we like to present a top ten lists that will help people make an intelligent buying decision. Actually, it is quite difficult to have an accurate list of the best electric skateboards because no sooner do we write this list up, someone either improves their skateboards or creates a new one that really blows our minds! Well, we at Electric Bikes -n- Scooters have assembled a board of the top physicists, scientists, engineers and hobbyists to vote and decide on the absolute best of the best electric skateboards that are on the market, so don't waste your time sending us snotty little emails telling us how wrong we are about our selection, because we are never wrong. Having established our authority on this matter we will now review the top 10 electric skateboards on the market.

#1 The Urban Mover UM 70sx Urban Surfer

Nothing quite compares to an electric skateboard that has a 36 Volt 800 Watt High torque, low profile, rare earth magnet high power motor. I have seen this electric motorized Skateboard tear across a grassy field like it was nothing. It can climb hills and give you a ride that you will never forget. The UM 70sx has a wireless controller that can accelerate the speed of the board with just a pull of the trigger and at the same time, use the same wireless controller to break. Check this out, if you jump off of the board (or fall off because of high speeds!) the board will put the breaks on so that it will not ride off into the sunset. An incredible skateboard that can only be found at: http://www.urbanmover.com

#2 The Future Pro 150 Altered Electric Skateboard by EXKATE

This board has incredible maneuverability and has an 8 mph wireless controller. This board has about a 7mile range between charges, so you can really spend some quality time zooming around like a maniac.

#3 The Hill Carver by Kronik Skateboards!

If you think that you have seen radical skateboards before, then think again. There is a new brand of cutting edge boards moving up the escalator of insanity and it is called the Hill Carver (Sheesh, it sounds like a horror movie!) by Kronik Skateboards. This thing even looks scary, with its massive 800 watt motor mounted on the back and rungs installed so that you don't slip off, it is a piece of electric motorized evil!!! This sucker is built to drive over grass, hills and dirt of all kinds because it is an all terrain board. It too has a wireless remote with three variable speeds that will zoom you along at 35 kilometers an hour. As the company says, "The three speeds are labeled as Krawl, Kruse and Go Nuts!!! Check out the Hill carver at Kronik's site: http://www.electricskateboards.com.au/

#4 The E-glide DC 36 Powerboard

This smaller yet powerful electric motor skateboard carries with it a 400 watt electric motor. It has been touted as a lighter and shorter board, but it will not go as far as other more powerful boards the better part of 6 or 7 miles. This electric skateboard also comes with black grip tape on its surface so as to prevent slipping and falling during a power-ride through the wastelands! Check out the E-glide at: http://www.e-glide.com/

#5 The Electric Scorpion Three Wheeled Electric Skateboard

Wow, what an incredible innovation in electric skateboarding! This electric motorized skateboard has only three wheels and loads of power to charge along at about 20 kilometers an hour and can run for almost 2 hours on a single charge. This board has an 100 watt motor and contains aluminum gears. If that doesn't get your electric boarding juices flowing, then nothing will!

#6 The Groundsurf Bluetooth Enabled Skateboard

Man, I don't know about a high performance on this board, but it certainly is going to rate as one of the coolest skateboards around!!! This is the Groundsurf - A Bluetooth enabled skateboard. This electric motorized skateboard has a super sleek design and its designers do not like to refer to it as an electric skateboard but as an "electric surfboard". The fine people at Bluetooth (yes, the same folks that made you hang those crazy things in your ear) have aligned themselves with a French based company called Ratleads to have this electric motorized board respond to their cell phone technology. This too, is a three wheeled board with cutting edge technology and a high price tag - $2000.00! Check it out at their site: http://www.groundsurf.com

#7 The Boom2 Borda Electric Skateboard from Rok It Science

Boomada Boomada Boom!!! This sucka as a powerful 600-watt electric motor as well as rubber wheels for all sorts of terrain. If you want to go up to 30 miles on a single charge, and it also carries an interchangeable wheel for off road encounters with danger! You really can't beat the power or the range of a board that hauls booty at 25 miles an hour in this price range! You can see the Boom2 at Rok It Science's site at: http://www.rokitscience.co.uk

#8 The Metroboard Longboard Electric Skateboard!

This is a slick looking board that is on the market at a median price for the electric motorized skateboard market. ($435) It is controlled by a small back box that has colores buttons on it and the board has a textured black surface to it so that slippage will be reduced. Speed is at a premium too as the e-board can achieve accelerations from o to 16 mph in just 5 seconds! See the Metroboard Longboard at : http://www.metro-board.com/welcome.htm

OK, so you don't want to spend a ton of money on an electric motor Skateboard, then all you need is the Skatemaster.
