Which new skateboard should I get

Damn I'm torn

Linnpower ox er: $2,000, 1700wh battery





Acedeck Horizon elite: $3,000, 2000wh battery





Acedeck ares x5 (2wd version): $2,000, 1300wh battery












The linnpower ox is the best all around board. Good range, high speed, racing slicks. Con: wooden deck, not carbon fiber.

The acedeck horizon elite is the best cruiser board. Biggest battery, suspension trucks for maximum comfort, biggest tires for shitty roads. Cons: heaviest, suspension trucks have less of a classic skateboard feel

The acedeck ares x5 is a speed demon. Fastest, but smallest battery. Meant for racing, has fast charging and racing slick tires. Also (imo) by far the coolest looking. Love the yellow design.


Tough decisions ahead.

The one with the biggest battery and longest range.

Also how is product support between the two companies? If you needed replacement parts, do both offer parts support?

"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

Acedeck offers a lifetime warranty on its gear drives which is huuuuuge tbh. I have an acedeck board currently (nomad n3 elite) and have replaced my gear drive already once under warranty. I had to spend about 3 weeks without my board when it happened but it didn't cost me anything.

Unfortunately all these companies are Chinese so communication and shipping can be annoying but it is what it is. All of these boards ship from USA warehouses so getting the board is quick enough, parts and warranty services are shipping from China.

Something about the first one I really like. That would be my pick.

Happy shopping!

Yeah I remember when you posted your gear train going to shit, that's why I said whoever has better support. At least with Acedeck, you know they live up to their warranty and have the parts on hand.

Does Linnpower have a warranty and are they good at shipping parts?

The other thing with the Acedeck with biggest battery is it looks like that suspension is just more parts that could possibly break or need periodic maintenance. Tough call dude.
