Single in-hub motor: In-hub motors are inside the wheels. They allow the wheels to still spin freely like a traditional skateboard wheel. This means you can push it should you run out of power. The alternative to an in-hub motor is a belted motor. Belted motors offer a little more torque and power, as well as faster braking, but belted motor skateboards can’t be pushed. The belts can also tear – which makes belted motors more work to maintain, potentially. The other benefit of an in-hub motor is its natural stealth mode, belted motors tend to announce your arrival with a loud vibrating noise. Deciding whether or not you need flex is like ordering eggs – some people like them soft and some people need them practically rubberized and stamped with the Dunlop logo. No one can tell you which is best, it’s down to personal preference. Experienced boarders enjoy the effect of a little flex, it’s like a shock absorber over bumps. It also means the board is less likely to snap.

Wheels: The wheels are soft but relatively small.Flex is not practical for high speeds, as you need total stability to fly.

It weighs about the same as a laptop and, being a shortboard, it’s not a massive inconvenience in terms of its 27.5-inch length. It’s the type of travel system you can commute to college on, safely forget about during your day, and ride home on. That, on its own, is a major selling point, but Acton made sure to use the weight wisely.
