E-Skateboard Race Around Queenstown | Who Will Win

in #travel6 years ago


Watch us race around Lake Wakatipu (Queenstown Lake) on our first time ever on an electric skateboard. We challenge each other and head over to Eskate in Queenstown to get our boards. We have a blast, with some of the most stunning views along the way. We even have offroad tires on so we can go through the woods on our e-skateboards.
Watch and find out who is the better skateboarder!

Experience the thrills of the latest board sport in Queenstown! A mixture of wake, surf and skate you can take in the spectacular views of the Remarkable Mountains and Lake Wakatipu as you cruise along the scenic lakefront.
About The Tour:
Tours start at Jubilee Park on Park Street. Here you will get a quick introduction and training on how to safely control the board and an outline of your adventure.The feeling of riding our boards are often compared to other board sports like surfing, snowboarding, paddle-boarding and wake-boarding. However, even if you have never tried these before – most people find riding an electric skateboard super easy and will pick it up in a matter of minutes – no prior experience needed as full training is provided.

After training you will embark on your journey around the Gardens, onto the Frankton trail, all the way around the Frankton Arm of Lake Wakatipu. Your enthusiastic guide will highlight the stunning photo opportunities available on the way (selfies are welcome!) and provide you with the info that other tour operators will not.

What is the fastest speed that you can reach on this board

Up and downhill. I assume the weight of a person would also affect the speed? Is that correct

If the boards engine power is high enough, plus if the board actually controls its speed and not the power input -> no.

But it is very likely that these two "ifs" are not fullfilled for these boards, so you are right.

Its top speed is around 32km (flat road)

Thank you for that information. I am going to pass it on to my grandson who loves to skateboard.

We are sure he would hav e blast doing this

On Baldwin Street, for uphill and downhill?

It made it uphill on Baldwin street, I don't think anyone is brave enough to go downhill haha

This is really going to be a funfilled competition between you couple. Who should i cheer for.......? Hmmmmm....let me keep that a secret until i see you two at starting point lol

Haha, Sophie is definitely the better border for sure. She has much better balance : )

Cricket Merlot.

Cricket for the New Zealand relation as well as to small cars (actually was a small cars name) and Merlot for the colour.

Or Red Messy ;)

I love the thought in the name, great choice! Also Red Messy sounds awesome : )

Thanks, however for my own car I would go for the suggestions from Mat: car or Swift

Swift all the way haha : )

Que buena nota.
Me hicieron recordar mi epóca de patinetero. Años 80 con una tabla Adam Smith, ruedas de criptonita y uno buenos truck.
Claro, yo ya no estoy disponible para eso pero de verdad la disfruto.
Saludos

Vaya, parece que realmente conoces tus patinetas. Tendré que buscarlo en google
: )
