LOU Boards –

LOU Board

Despite being a relatively new brand, LOU Boards have set a new benchmark in the electric skateboard industry. Developed by the Swiss company SoFlow, LOU Boards were initially funded through a Kickstarter campaign in April 2017 and have now achieved mass production!

What distinguishes LOU from the rest of the market is its integrated technology design. The rechargeable Lithium-ion battery of the LOU is embedded in the deck, and its motor is incorporated into the wheel, resulting in a smooth, sleek design that resembles a regular skateboard more than an electric one.

Due to this internal technology design, the LOU is water resistant up to an IP rating of 54, and is lighter and more robust than most electric skateboards. Another innovative aspect is that the LOU functions as a regular skateboard without power, so if the battery runs out, you can still skate home!

LOU Boards are available in three different models – the 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0. Both the LOU 1.0 and 2.0 have a range of 6-9 miles and can reach a top speed of 17 mph, but the 2.0 is significantly lighter due to its Carbon Fibre deck, as opposed to the 1.0's Polyurethane deck. The 3.0 is the most powerful model, offering a range of 12-15 miles and a top speed of 21 mph!

Flow Deck X

Flow Deck X

Created by the same team behind the LOU Board, the Flow Deck is the longboard counterpart of the LOU. Built with the same integrated technology as the LOU, the Flow Deck X features a pintail-shaped deck made from a combination of Maple, Fibreglass, and Carbon Fibre.

The Flow Deck X offers a range of up to 9 miles and can reach a top speed of 19 mph, thanks to its rechargeable Lithium battery and dual 1400w Brushless motors, housed within the board's wheels.

This board is perfect for cruising and is ideal for those seeking a comfortable, leisurely ride!

Razor X

RazorX Cruiser

Razor is a major player in the electric scooter and skateboard sector. Their Razor X Lithium Powered boards are essentially traditional skateboards with an electric boost! Offering both a longboard and cruiser option, these boards provide up to 40 minutes of continuous use and can reach speeds of up to 10 mph.

Constructed from robust Maple decks, reverse kingpin trucks, and 80a high-grip urethane wheels, their electric power is delivered through a kick-start 125w geared motor, powered by a rechargeable 22V Lithium battery pack. The rear-wheel drive motor is mounted beneath the board and requires virtually no maintenance, eliminating concerns about alignment, chains, or belts!

The Razor X Cruiser is an excellent choice for those wanting to achieve cruising speeds while navigating urban areas. The Razor X Longboard, on the other hand, is better suited for smoother, more open environments.
