The Nyx Z3 doesn’t just talk the talk when it comes to range; it delivers an impressive up to 95 kilometers (59 miles) with the 1554Wh battery configuration. Whether you’re planning epic trail sessions or extended off-road explorations, this board gives you the freedom to ride further without range anxiety. Multiple battery options (1554Wh, 1295Wh, 1036Wh, and 777Wh) mean you can choose the perfect balance of range and weight for your riding style.

The electric skateboard market just got a serious contender with LINNPOWER’s THE ONE racing board, currently on sale for $1,999 (down from $2,499). This isn’t your typical commuter board – it’s engineered with racing DNA that translates real performance to the streets.

The standout feature is the RaceAxis™ Pivot Truck system, addressing the biggest complaint about traditional channel trucks: that mushy center feel followed by harsh rebound. Using a 45° front and 15° rear split-angle geometry with precision-milled 7075-T651 aluminum, steering remains progressive and confidence-inspiring whether you’re carving at low speeds or bombing hills at 70+ km/h.

The monocoque carbon fiber deck construction mirrors supercar engineering, using T700 and T800 hybrid carbon fiber in a compression-molded design that’s both incredibly strong and surprisingly refined. Sculpted footwells keep you locked in during aggressive riding, while the matte finish gives it that stealth aesthetic serious riders appreciate. Performance-wise, THE ONE delivers where it counts.

The PRIME version packs dual LINNPOWER 7087 motors producing 12,000W total output, launching you to 50 km/h in just 2 seconds with an 85 km/h top speed using the optional 13T gear. The SELECT variant offers a more approachable 6,000W setup that still hits 70 km/h. Both versions feature the innovative 18S4P FlexVolt™ battery system with ultra-fast charging – the PRIME version reaches 70% charge in just 15 minutes with 30A charging.

What sets THE ONE apart is its adjustable ride height system, letting you switch between track and street configurations in minutes using aerospace-grade aluminum brackets. For riders serious about performance and willing to invest in racing-grade components, THE ONE represents exceptional value in the premium e-skate segment.

But raw range means nothing without the power to back it up, and the Horizon delivers with true 160A output and 8000W peak power through custom 6890 150kv motors. The result? A top speed of 44mph that feels both thrilling and controlled.

Comfort hasn’t been sacrificed for performance. The refined suspension system with shock-absorbing channel trucks means road imperfections disappear beneath your feet, making those epic long-distance rides genuinely enjoyable.

Spur Gear Drive

When the trail gets gnarly and other e-boards tap out, TRAMPA’s Spur Gear Drive mountainboards charge ahead like mechanical beasts. These aren’t your typical street cruisers – they’re engineered for riders who laugh at muddy hills and snowy trails.

The secret lies in the closed-drive system housed within a CNC-machined aluminum tub. Two cylindrical toothed gears deliver insane torque that’ll pull you through conditions that would strand lesser boards. We’re talking 50+ km/h speeds with acceleration that pins you back.

TRAMPA offers three configurations to match your riding style. The Basic (£2050) delivers solid all-around performance with 6464 160KV motors and POM gears. Crave more power? The Full Power (£2400) packs 6386 165KV motors with steel spur gears for serious trail shredding. Distance demons will love the Long Ranger (£2800) with its massive battery box and 9-inch Megastar hubs.

Unlike belt drives optimized for smooth rides, spur gears prioritize torque and durability over pure top speed. The enclosed system laughs at debris, moisture, and impacts that would destroy exposed components. Just remember to pack a spare inner tube – these boards will take you places where walking home isn’t fun.

For riders seeking the ultimate off-road electric experience, TRAMPA’s Spur Gear Drive transforms impossible terrain into your personal playground.

Top speeds reach 43mph on the Pro and 38mph on the Standard, with both models capable of climbing 50% grades.

The Major V3’s advanced lighting system deserves special mention. Ultra-bright 4000LM headlights provide excellent visibility with 10 adjustable brightness levels.
