I'm excited to see the number of players in the electric skateboard market. I'd like to see costs come down though, it seems like all of them are in the $1200-$2000 range with not much differentiation. I suspect the one who can bring costs down while maintaining quality will be the winner in this market.
I'm not sure what Boosted is bringing to the table honestly, compared to brands like [Evolve](http://evolveskateboardsusa.com/) that have been out for a while now and have better specs at a significantly lower price.
Boosted is using Loaded longboards which are high-quality longboards. As a longboarder, it gives me confidence that the board will be fun to ride as opposed to being just a plank of wood on wheels. On the other hand, those Evolve boards look decent. The costs of all of these are really too high for me right now, so I'll admit I haven't seriously looked into it.
I don't have an Evolve board but I'm considering one. I'd suggest giving them a look (much longer distance on one charge). I think I'll end up with either an evolve board or a onewheel. I do wish it was possible to test them out first to see how the ride really feels but I'm sure I would end up pretty happy with anything.
If you want to try a Boosted board, email us at community@. There are different boards, and some are better for different riding profiles. Happy to help you decide.
