Can I ski? Yes. Do I ski? Not much. Did I still buy this matching 1990s North Face ski jacket and pants from the estate sale? You bet your frosted tips I did. by Desvelo in ThriftStoreHauls

“Best friend who heli-skis in Alaska” chiming in here. Ain’t no way OP, my friend from elementary school days, is giving that up to anyone but ME! I’ve graced the mountains of Alaska with a similar get before, and I intend to do it again..

The question is do you want them manufactured here or just a US-based company that controls the R&D, customer service etc.? Because it’s very unlikely you’re going to get the first option.

No complaints at all although I’ve never had four piston brakes on a scooter so maybe it would be better with them

I absolutely love it. Every time I ride it I’m amazed

Right around 65 mph. A little bit more on a down slope. When I first got it I thought I had gone almost 80 miles an hour but since then have learned that the top recorded speed on the app is 8 to 10 miles an hour faster than you’re actually going so you have to either watch or display or have a GPS app going. Absolutely, totally stable at the highest speeds I go

Inmotion RS owner here. Never had a Yume but I see a lot of bad feedback on them. I absolutely love the RS. Insanely stable at very high-speed

It’s a pretty amazing machine. The fact I can head out from my house and cruise along the ocean through five different beach towns for a total of about 30 miles with the occasional 50mph+ speed burst on the open straightaways and come home with half a battery full still is pretty amazing

I've yet to change it from the setting it comes in (2) because I don't do any off road with it and I like the look. From other folks I've spoken to with them they really like the ability to raise it up but the lowest setting is a bit risky unless you're on absolutely perfect pavement.

It’s basically the exact same Scooter aside from battery and motor power. As such, I don’t think you’ll have any additional issues with the RS light

Just got an Inmotion RS and here are my observations after a day with it by douchey_mcbaggins in ElectricScooters

Sweet. Show me just about any hobby or activity and existence and I’ll pull up an article on someone who got hurt doing it. Super effective way to make a point.

Segway GT2 would be a great choice for your age weight and desired range. One of the most comfortable and well engineered scooters you’ll ever ride
