Description
- 18 MPH TOP SPEED with 7 MILE RANGE: Riptide has a Serious Drivetrain - With an 1800W* dual belt drive the Riptide can keep up with some of the fastest boards on the market. Don't let the board's small size fool you, it has major power.

Bring it everywhere and within seconds you can stash it under a train seat or in the trunk of an Uber. With its built-in handles you can literally pick up the Riptide with one finger
- EVEN ON AN AIRPLANE: The Riptide's 97 wh battery is precisely engineered to fit within TSA guidelines, so you can carry the board on and take it on all your adventures.
- CLIMB UP HILLS: The Riptide's drive train has the power to fly up steep hills. The board also includes regenerative braking allowing you to descend safely - even when on a full charge.*
- REFINED CONTROL: Simply roll your thumb forward to go and backwards to regeneratively brake. The Riptide Remote comes with 3 modes: 1) Beginner - Reduced acceleration and top speed. Perfect for learning. 2) Eco - Reduced acceleration / Maximum top speed. Best for maximizing range. 3) Expert - Maximum acceleration / Maximum top speed. Let that dual belt drive rip.
Big time power in a small package. Designed in San Diego by lifelong skateboarders and surfers, Riptide was built on the belief that an electric skateboard can be super powerful and incredibly convenient, while retaining all the features that make an unpowered board great. Our R1 Elite adds large, soft, premium urethane wheels by ABEC11, and head / lights by Shredlights. Reviewers Love the Riptide "The R1 is fast out of the gate, with the maneuverability of a standard-size deck. So far, it's come closest to what I've been looking for on all fronts: size, price and power." -Engadget "When we started our review for the Riptide, we realized right away this electric skateboard was something special." -Digital Trends "This is a whole different type of skating and its awesome." - ElectricWaveTV
