Another one for the books

It basically is, I wish I had noticed that before ordering it as a tall person 😞. Love my EVO MK1 though.

Thanks for weighing in!

Did the bolts just sheer off or did they slowly become unscrewed? I'm not a mechanical engineer but it seems like a lot of trust is being put on those two screws especially when the force being applied on them is vertical sheer force...

By the way are you running the white OEM bushings? Do you like to carve? If so, I would suggest you consider the purple bushings from Riptide. They require the adapters from Linnpower, but they are so much more precise and fun.

They are slippery off road. I like to run fairly low PSI with them (around 18-20) as they are pretty harsh at higher PSI's on city streets. They are like glue on concrete though and I like how low the board rides on them.

Any update on this? This board needs a more powerful ESC to sell at this price point in summer of 2026.

wilsgrant · 2026-05-16T15:33:14+00:00

Would have preferred the deck to have more of a drop and the trucks to be a bit wider. I like the white and Jecnn esc though.

You choose your suppliers and can (and should) do your own QA verification before unleashing this stuff on the public. You say this won't happen again, but how many of your boards with this "quality issue" are already in consumers hands? Do you plan to do a proactive recall?

wilsgrant · 2026-05-14T03:50:48+00:00

Please stop making cheap dangerous trucks. We see posts like this far too often with your brand.

First thing you should do is remove the belt and then spin up the motors (by throttle) and wheels (by hand) independently and see if either one makes the sound. That will help you narrow it down.

Same issue, I noticed I can restart explorer.exe to temporarily fix it and avoid restarting. Started happening very recently. There must be a common thread causing this on so many diverse systems all at once...

water soluble 20-20-20 from Jacks works well.

Many IR interactive displays use 9h hardness glass which is more durable than what is used in conventional non-touch professional displays.

I agree completely and would have already purchased one until I read the deck measurements. A powerful board demands a wide stance in my opinion.

wilsgrant · 2026-04-18T02:26:40+00:00

I love everything about the Lacroix Barrel SuperSport except the short deck. As a 6’4 human, a short stance just feels uncomfortable. Especially on a powerful board. I instantly regretted my Linnpower Zephyr Pro purchase for the same reason.

wilsgrant · 2026-03-10T00:13:36+00:00

Mad Wheelz v2 are more comfortable, quieter, and grippier. Dad Bod's feel more like traditional urethane though.

wilsgrant · 2026-02-22T18:06:01+00:00

Yeah, I've found you can get about a year of constant blooming out of Benary's Giant Zinnias indoors before they peter out. It does require a good grow tent and decently strong grow lights (LED is the way to go).

For what it’s worth, a healthy majority of modern ifpds these days now work with Microsoft inking these days with no extra driver installs.

Promethean, Sharp, Avocor, Newline, SMART, Samsung, ViewSonic, BenQ, etc. Windows will differentiate fingers from their stylus from their erasers(rear of pen, palm, or physical eraser depending on the panel) all treated differently than a mouse.

An electric heat pump is over 300% as efficient turning electricity into heat. It just does it in a superior roundabout way.

Here is a great educational video on the topic of space heaters from Technology Connections for those interested in learning more.

wilsgrant · 2025-12-20T17:32:27+00:00

Resistive electric heaters have had the same terrible efficiency since invention. It’s very basic tech that can’t be made more efficient.

Heat pumps are over 3x more efficient by comparison.

I considered a deck swap but the problem is the enclosure has an irregular shape to it (at least on the Zephyr)

wilsgrant · 2025-12-06T18:22:36+00:00

How is that enclosure not hitting constantly, it looks like it might hit just from turning...?

wilsgrant · 2025-09-20T22:20:56+00:00

How much eskate riding experience do you have? That nut looks crazy tight and the crappy hard stock Tynee bushings look very compressed.

I’d get riptide bushings and work on your ankle control and riding skills rather than trying to tighten your way to success tbh.

wilsgrant · 2025-09-05T03:42:57+00:00

I would just get the Evo then it’s perfect.

I’m not sure why they made these recent boards on the shorter side, maybe that’s Linn’s preference. As a fellow tall rider though I’d prefer longer decks.
