It's sad to hear, but Boosted Boards is potentially going out of business very soon. In the event you are unable to get a Boosted board, here is a list of alternative electric skateboards that I believe are close to, and in some cases better than a Boosted Board. I have a ton of respect for Boosted, and hope that this is not the end for them...
Boosted Mini Alternatives: A cruiser style deck around 30" preferably with dual belt drive motors
- Ownboard M1 Mini:
- Vestar Mini
- Meepo Mini 2 ER: bit.ly/2tkwKJg
- Backfire Mini
- Bustin Dualomo YoFace Hybrid 33
Boosted Longboard Alternatives: A flexy/symmetrical bamboo deck + dual belt drive motors
- Ownboard W2
- Wowgo 3/3x
- Exway Flex: bit.ly/314kICF
- Loaded x Unlimited Icarus Kit i.loadedboards.com/151-66.htm
- Revel Kit with a Loaded Vanguard Deck
- Mellow Drive + Loaded Deck
Thanks to ‪@BrandonDGr8‬ and ‪@DanielKwan‬ for their help!

The problem was they were too expensive unless you live in a very dense city like NYC where they could be a viable form of transportation they are just an expensive toy I could just buy a Honda Civic instead.

Mistakes that boosted made 1. They got distracted from their core business and created electric scooter. 2. They failed to upgrade they product regularly to stay ahead of competition. 3. They did not use great time tested skate hardware on their latest boards. (Boosted stealth had no load deck, no caliber trucks or no orangatang wheels.)

Boosted were always WAY too expensive, perfect recipe for taking a company under - sell something expensive to a target audience in which 60% probably don't have jobs due to school. Does this mean there will be a crash sale?, I will buy one at 75% discount 👍👍👍

Boosted offered something extra - their support was exceptional and all their products felt high quality. I went throuh rainstorms with 1inch of water on the road and BB just soldiered through. Talking about support, I even received set of two new motors for free - I emailed them that I had correded contacts on mine and they sent me new ones for free, incl. shipping to europe. Ive done couple thousand miles on mine V2+, destroyed the remote controller yesterday, now Im in deep sh... and looking for replacement. I will keep using it until some irreplaceable parts breaks down. I think the main reason they went under is this large venture capital funding they grabbed. These investors gave them 60M, they surely expected a lot in return. So Boosted had to look for new market and they went scooter... which failed and therefore ruined the company.

I got myself a Yuneec Ego 2 and I couldn't be happier with it. It only goes up to 12 mph but frankly that's more than fast enough for me and it still feels amazing to ride. Any other boards you can get for the same price as it are normally off-brand garbage. If anyone wants a cheap electric skateboard that is still reliable, Yuneec Ego 1 or 2 is the board for you.
@mshaftenberg
@mshaftenberg 4 года назад
Yuneec E-Go was my first board, loved it very much. I swapped to an Evolve GT long ago and the difference is obvious. E=Go is an old Mercedes Diesel, while the Evolve has some extra comfort and a turbo under the hood. I'd recommend the E-Go to everyone who is new to electric Skateboard, pure joy to ride.

great video, so glad to see you mention DIY as well... so many options!!!! I honestly can't wait to see everyone not riding a boosted... they are great boards sure but with so many great options it will be awesome to see more variety on group rides now. As for DIY, with a loaded vanguard, dual 6380 motors, a 12S4P eboosted enclosure, otang wheels, you can have basically a suuuuuper awesome boosted V1 with 10x the torque and double the speed... sorry I love DIY... still considering picking up an off the shelf board just for fun though at some point.

Rob Sommers - if they do a sale because of the closing, their boards will be on sale. Then, you have to wait until stock runs out and wait for the market to die down, and then sell. If they don't do a sale, you could probably sell right after they go under for a profit

If you want a boosted board, you can still get the boards on boostedusa.com/ . The owner of Last Mile SF bought nearly all of the remaining inventory from Boosted, and is hosting the site. Of course once the inventory is out, it's out, BUT they do want to continue to help the Boosted community by servicing boards. Hope this helps anyone still trying to get a board. I have the Stealth and I had a V1 dual motor boosted board as well. I love the boards, and I am devasted that I can't get another one in the future. It almost reminds me of when the Sidekick phones stopped production. I was loyal to them as well.. so sad.

In my opinion, the absolute BEST alternative to boosted these days is the backfire zealot. My old boosted v2 started failing awhile ago, and after trying out a friend's zealot, I fell in love with it. My zealot arrived a few weeks back and I've already put over 80 miles on it. I can confidently say that it is better than boosted in almost every way. It's faster. It's got more range. It's torquier. It's got telemetry to the remote with a live speed readout, a trip meter, an odometer, and cruise control. It's more affordable than boosted by a longshot. With the discount code, it costs less than half what a brand new boosted stealth would've cost. I put over 1,800 miles on my boosted v2. I loved that thing. In my opinion, the zealot is absolutely the best boosted successor.

Casey can have a custom boosted clone made if he wants. He probably has a stash of them as well. Also things have advanced... My Evolve GTR can do 30 miles. Getting 16 on the All Terrains and 28 - 30 on the (street) Abex 107s. Also speed is closer to 30mph... 35 to 40 with (third party) 23T Gear. I think Boosted did a great thing but couldn't keep up. When boards like Slick Revolution/ Exway started pushing boards for half the price with higher specs, and even the likes of the cheaper overseas brands.. Boosted didn't have something at every price point.

Boosted USA bought all their stuff and probably sells parts.

I never thought and still don't think boosted is worth it, I have the first ownboard he showed but with the hub motors and it's range is longer and I fly past boosted boards everyday on campus and it was only $450. Have had it for 2 years and only had to replace the wheels on the hub motors once and I've put over 1500 miles on the board.

Just bought my first electric board after skating/ and long boarding for a while, wanted to get something cheap to learn on in case I dump it. Paid about 249 dollars and got kind of a ripoff of the riptide r1x that goes about 18 mph with 8 mile range. Wanna build my own boards too so I might upgrade the battery on it.

Their boards are more expensive, they're supported with numerous influencers. And they're saying goodbye? Hey Ronnie, Im not sure which board is for me. I want the mini because i want something I can carry easily. So, backfire vs meepo vs vestar? I actually want the boosted but its too expensive for me. Im from the Philippines, am I going to have a problem with charging? Im pretty much going for this for transpo for me.

Of the mellow kit and revel kit which one do you prefer and why? Also, which one seems to be of better quality/reliability? I have heard that the mellow kit is extremely reliable and can take a lot of abuse.... I wonder if the revel can handle the same....

Although I currently own 3 Mellows, I‘d probably go with a Revel. Mellow unfortunately hasn‘t delivered any major hardware or even software update since the launch. They were basically bought by the manufacturing company and since then nothing happened. Key people have left.

I got no love for Boosted. They were the first to bring e-skateboards to market and this is what justified their pricing. Bullshit. You can get a decent board that performs the same and better than Boosted for a third of the price. No lie. They also fucked up trying to do a scooter. WTF!?!? Good riddance. More for us. Keep up the good work, bro.

El Mission you don’t know anything. You really think there are better performing boards than boosted? You obviously have never ridden one. They are leagues ahead of all the other brands.
