Finally picked up my Trampa Street Carver from the one and only @Kaly and I’m absolutely blown away! Build quality and the attention to detail is ridiculous!
Even though I’ve only spent a few hours on it today, I love it! It’s crazy fast so I’m just getting use to the power curve and the boards carving characteristics.
I’ll report back once I get some more ride time on it. For the time being, here are the basic specs and some pics…
Trampa 14ply Street Carver deck
Trampa Vertigo front and rear trucks
MBS 100mm wheels
Dual Kaly.NYC 6355 230kv motors
Dual Kaly.NYC motor mounts & pulleys
Dual VESC-X (Ackmaniacs)
12S4P battery w/ 60amp BMS
Bluetooth dongle
Individual motor on/off switches
It’s my first time on them, and in all honesty I was a little worried about “street traction” due to the design, but they’re actually not that bad. @Kaly also lent me a sent of shaved down green MBS wheels to try as well. I’m going to give them a go later this weekend (if the rain holds off) and see which I prefer better. If I like the shaved ones, Ernesto said he would shave down mine, so we will see.
You’ll have to reach out to @Kaly for details on how the battery meter was made, but as for having both an XT90 key and power button - the power button is what you use to power on and off the board, and the XT90 key acts as a safety cut off for the boards.
Ps… I swapped out the black knobby MBS’s for a set of green shaved MBS’s (on loan from @Kaly) and man they really have some serious grip! Gonna have to shave down mine asap!
Hi @DucatiGuy
We meet at @Kaly 's house , I mentioned using bindings , and we briefly talked about the @Ackmaniac app.
I have since switched from MBS wheels to AT wheels
I have to get used to the hight, taller , and torque curve different
Hey Robert!
I spent the better half of the weekend getting acclimated to my new board. It’s definitely a beast and I’m having a blast with it.
I haven’t gotten around to setting up the android app yet. Hopefully this week I’ll have some time to tinker with it.
I’ve never been on a board with AT wheels, so I’m looking forward to it. Kaly should be getting my set in sometime next week or so. I’m sure there’s going to be a learning curve with them as well.
Considering you rode to Kaly’s, do you live nearby?
Hi @DucatiGuy (John)
Yes I live within 4 long blocks of Kaly… not much of a ride in terms of electric skateboarding
I hear you with learning and adapting to the board .
I haven’t gotten used to the air tires yet… there are imbalances on each tire, I have to sort though. With stickie weights . And also Trampas inova air tires are not the best for high speeds( not perfectly round) IMO…
Kaly likes the air tires from Evolve. They are better quality . And can inflate to 50psi less rolling resistance , unlike Inova 's 36psi
Well hope to get together for a ride one day soon
By… have fun😜
I’m curious to know how much this was too. Can I have first dibs if you ever decide to sell? I’m looking around for a board and checking out parts to build my own too.
The Kaly built Trampa Street Carver board, in a 2 in 1 configuration (pneumatic and urethane wheels), with 4A fast charger, and remote is comparable in price to that of an Evolve Carbon GT.
Have no plans to get rid of it anytime soon. I love it! There’s really nothing else like it.
