Oh yes my board did a top speed run this passed weekend and it clocked in at 44mph on the radar gun.

That’s interesting what you say about the grip tape. Mine arrived looking like it was stretched when it was put on with bubbles underneath. I peeled it off and carefully reapplied it but it happened again. Bubbling at the neck and tail. Still not even got trucks on it!

Similar here. Bubbling at the tail mostly.

I’m not the only one then. It’s not a huge deal but I expected better quality from a board like this.
I’ve found several of my “premium” boards come with subpar grip.

I like Black Diamond grip. It’s not so gruppy it tears the skin off your fingers but is still grippy enough to lock in.

how did it come? I bought some vicious tape from Daddies and it came is a bubble envelope. it was squished creased, now I got faint lines on my board
It usually comes in a roll. I lay it out flat and weight the corners, usually overnight. That makes it a lot easier to install.
I ordered from Daddies thinking as a skate store they would know better than to ship like that. Thanks for the link. I’ll try those

No worries. I just ordered a roll of Jessup 10in x 60ft, it looks like good quality grip as well.
Nice I’m going to order some now.
I also ordered a fast charger cause the cheap 2a charger takes over 12 hours to charge from what I understand it’s not always 2A it goes down as you get closer to full and makes it extremely slow.
Also ordered a set of step brackets and another set of shredlight headlights. To try out 4 lights up front to increase night visibility
So went to a place called Key Biscayne with 93% battery and I went to the very end and back I had 20% battery when I got back.and it was very windy.

My new BMS should be coming in today, would I be okay running 40 battery amps per Focbox with a 12s4p 30q battery? I hear they are 15amp cells but people run them at 20 perfectly fine.
Thanks @torqueboards

I want to try my set up with the 36t pullies and 90mm wheels I’ll drag race anyone with that set up and win lol

30q are rated safe at 20a as long as they don’t get hot for sustained periods:
4p made of 30q would be safe to do 40a per focbox in dual, just make sure you don’t use full amp draw for extended periods (more than a few seconds at a time).

I have a 10s4p 30Q pack, the FocBox’s are set at 40a per ESC, never had an issue or generated an error.

Nice I’ll have to try that later.
I did a long range test today, kind of a failure it’s super windy today so that affected my milage and I fell and I almost got hit by 2 cars in a row lol… Fun
I got home with 6% battery left and I did about 20.9 miles today.
My knee pads saved my knees for real!
But in my carelessness I did not wear my gform elbow pads under my sweater and this small injury was the price… I was lucky.

So I got the 36t pullies and decided to try them with my 90mm flywheels. The torque is crazy intense I have not tried full throttle yet due to fear.
The power is real… Thanks @thisguyhere these gears are insane, I need a longer belt to use these with my 107s though.
