Ebikes, bicycles, scooters, skateboards, longboards, eboards, motorcycles, skates, unicycles, heelies, or an office chair: Whatever floats your goat, this is all things micromobility!
"Transportation using lightweight vehicles such as bicycles or scooters, especially electric ones that may be borrowed as part of a self-service rental program in which people rent vehicles for short-term use within a town or city.
micromobility is seen as a potential solution to moving people more efficiently around cities"

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

I'm sure there's a market for electric skateboards as art pieces rather than as transport or for fun. Do I think the market is huge? Def no lol
I can't get over the severe protrusions that means this thing will run aground on almost any surface protrusions. It's like those motorized shoes we saw a while back, where they built it and later found the one use-case it was good for: warehouses, which have very smooth floors.
Hey, my skateboard, now hanging on my wall, totally enhances my middle-aged-man home office, and establishes my credentials as a still-hip young-at-heart, totally not emotionally-dead middle-management-drone!
I've actually ridden it within the past year, but (a) I am absolutely certain I look ridiculous on it, and (b) I'm sincerely concerned that I'll hurt myself: old people break more easily, and heal more slowly.
I have several old boards I am afraid to ride at this point including an offroad board I picked up off craigslist. I even have a broken StreetCarver someone gave me (Ill fix it eventually, definitely). Getting old and fat sucks.
That thing looks wild!
Getting old definitely sucks, my busted arm is still healing from a crash over a year ago.
Still, it beats the alternative.
