Traditionally, electric longboards are big, heavy, and expensive. In this video, I show you how to turn a tiny skateboard into a fully electric ride using affordable parts from Amazon. The result is an ultra-lightweight, portable board that’s small enough to fit in a backpack. Everything you need to build it is linked below.

We make build tutorials and reviews for electric skateboards. You can also find some other cool EV projects that we have built as well! We are two lifelong friends who love electric skateboards. We built our first board in summer 2017 and have been building and improving ever since. Most of our content is about how we build our boards and other PEV’s. We also have many reviews for DIY parts, accessories, and complete electric skateboards. If you want us to make a video about something put it in the comment section and we’ll do our best to get our hands on it.

Ivan Miranda Invented a New Type of Skateboard
Last year at OpenSauce I was talking about this idea of a TwoWheeled OneWheel to Wren from Corridor Digital and I haven’t had time to try and make it the whole year so as a last minute crunch project I set myself to build it and bring to OpenSauce 2025. I had a blast and it was amazing having so many people around me helping me and really wanting me to make it working. I’ve learned a lot and I think there’s future in this idea so I may try again sometime.
