The FiiK boards are the wireless high end models that have super high torque and acceleration speeds. I am clocked at 18 miles per hour up the same hills that. It is one of my favorite off road/street boards thats wireless. The Street Surfer and the Big DADDY are both brushed motors and the Shortii and Pipe Master are brushless.
Their motors are 800 peak watts and their battery is 36 volts 12 amps. They now have the 18 AMP battery that weighs about 11 lbs that you can carry in a backpack. It gives about 18 miles of ride time instead of the stock battery that comes with it that goes about 12 miles.
They have softer bushings in the front and harder in the back. They say on their site it holds less but I have put someone who is about 300 lbs and they don't have any problem on the board. It also takes about 5 to 10 seconds to take the other battery out and put in the new one.
Their board also comes with headlights and taillights. Their breaks are super powerful and come to a skidding stop. That strong.
Fiik and Altered have the patents for the USA although there are many companies that are making them outside ofthe USA and shipping them into the USA. There is a lot of stuff going on right now and behind the scenes way to much to get into because its one of those situations where I don't know who is right or wrong. Its not illegal what they are doing but I kind of undersand. Its like the first elliptical machine in the gym and now there are almost 100 different brands and types and variations and imports from China. A lot of people are importing them from Alibaba and renaming them and charging over 1000 for a board that costs... well look for yourself. I have tried these boards. I personally like the higher end skate parts. I won't say that any board is inferior but taking it to a skate shop and when they say the board is a piece of junk with just knowing about the board and nothing about the motor part. That tells me something. Just like I don't take off brand creatine or generic private label protein powder I never heard of after my workouts, I sure am not going to skate on an inferior skate board especially when a skate shop worker tells me he would never step foot on it.
Fiik has let me try each of their 4 boards on deposit. I've run it on the track and it does meet their 12 mile range and its clocked at about 22 miles an hour on flats. I know this can go faster but it has a speed control. I wish I could hot wire it and change the speed settings.
The Shortii is fun to ride. I ride it when I go clubbing at night. Its all lit up with wit
