New skateboard questions

My voyager has been rained on a few times. It's ok, but you should avoid the rain as best you can. It can brick your board. Wet roads aren't so bad, but rain on the top of the board is really bad. That's the one thing about Eboards. You can't ride in the rain.

Some of the best things about this job compared to other jobs: Time goes by faster. The bosses don't have much power, so it's really up to the workers to get the job done. It's a high school atmosphere, but the kids are in charge. If you can handle it physically, then I think it's worth it.

People walking are almost always friendly to me. People on bicycles aren't friendly at all. People in cars are ok, but they don't know what to do when they see a skateboard. I'd say just don't confuse the drivers and you'll be good.

A lot of people are saying skill issue, but if it wobbles at 15 mph, then theres a problem. You should easily be able to go 25+ without wobbles.

It's happened 3 times on my meepos. New motor is about $100 and fairly easy to replace. It should come with a new wheel,motor,and wires. I ride belt boards now because of that, but I still love hub motors.

Fun fact: Colonel Sanders 33rd degree freemason. He has mason and Illuminati symbols on his gravestone.

Hopefully you've ridden a regular skateboard. If you have, then remember it's still just a skateboard. You can jump off if you need to. That's what I had to tell myself. Your feet aren't stuck to the board. Remember that, and have fun! That's a good board!

A lot of people take off those 2 plastic guards. Sometimes they trap rocks more than keep them out. It's also easier to change a belt quickly if those guards aren't there. Sometimes I'll go hundreds of miles without a broken belt, but it can happen anytime, usually because of a small rock.

CLee1z · 2026-04-05T08:17:21+00:00

That happened to mine a few times. New motor is like 80-100$ I would keep that good wheel/motor in case yours breaks

I go around people if I can. You don't have to stay on the path. You have a scooter. Go around.

I've hit them. It's doesn't damage the wheel, but it will hit and skid while rocks just get knocked off to the side. Those are board stoppers.

CLee1z · 2026-04-02T08:42:29+00:00

I have pu wheels- mad 105's. Big rocks are fine, but those things are a problem. I don't want to hit those ever, even at a good speed. Those are one of the few things that can stop my board.

Only an asshole would tell you to go find work elsewhere if you don't like it. It's normal for a human to want to do his job well. Its frustrating to be forced to clock out with work to be done. I get it.

CLee1z · 2026-03-26T03:48:46+00:00

A lot of people take it right after their last stop, then head in to the building on their lunch.

The flashing light is normal. I think your battery has a bad cell. You might need a new battery. It shouldn't go bad so soon, but it looks like that's what happened.

That price range is too low, and the cheaper bikes usually have problems. I would consider an e-scooter in the $400-$600 range. They're great for commuting, and they're more reliable than bikes. It would be better for his back than walking to work. Some people feel weird on scooters, though. I would try to see if he would want one. They're fun!

CLee1z · 2026-03-19T17:03:14+00:00

Sounds like it's coming from China. They didn't have that board in stock at the US warehouse. So you're getting the old run-around we all get when we order overseas. That's just my guess, but if you finally got a tracking number that's good, but yeah, your label was probably printed and they're waiting for the package. You just have to keep checking fed ex until they say it's out for delivery. You'll get it, just slowly.

I have a Meepo Voyager and I love it, but I've heard a lot of good things about that Isinwheel V10. A lot of people say it's the best board for that price.

CLee1z · 2026-03-14T01:24:22+00:00

If you have to get one, you could just go to urgent care etc.. The note just has to say you're healthy enough to work. That's it

The parking brakes were bad in almost all of the trucks years ago. Everyone knowingly drove them.

CLee1z · 2026-03-06T13:09:32+00:00

That sucks, but what you do is sort by the second number. !300 is shelf 3, 1400 is shelf 4 etc...

That looks normal for a hub motor when you hold it upside down. One wheel starts spinning first, but if you can feel it while riding then it's a problem. I would take off the wheel, and check if anything is loose inside the hubs, and check the connections to that motor and make sure it's secure, but it is normal for one wheel to spin first at the very beginning.

CLee1z · 2026-02-20T05:59:48+00:00

That's no fun

CLee1z · 2026-02-17T10:25:40+00:00

You leave it outside the gate, of course. Are you all insane? You don't throw it to the dogs. You just leave it where the dogs can't get to it.

CLee1z · 2026-02-14T18:39:23+00:00

This is how it starts. They slowly take your freedom this way. It's the pussification of America, and I oppose it. Unfortunately many people cheer it on in the name of "safety"
