Suspension would be cool. I’m not sure if these have a grind pad, but that would be epic too

some other battery system. Even if the batteries dont last as long it would be cool to see some type of lighter form factor

Have you experimented with a front wheel drive design? I have always felt that this would feel more natural than rear wheel drive on electric skateboards and similar evs
@celebratedrazorworks7 ай бұрын
You would need a harmonic pin ring motor to get the right torque needed to make them Air Gears. Although the added weight would definitely require suspension. Because of weight distribution the rear wheel would be the smartest with a more powerful setup, anytime you move your weight has to be on your heel anyway. The ones used currently in trek e-bikes feel natural compensating for human mechanics. Splitting the load between two alternating strides may work in our favor ultimately if it's possible to scale down at all.

Dude this is next level DIY. As a skier....electric inline is something that sounds ultra dreamy. Way more than scooter or bike.

HEY THAT'S ME 0:06 ! So glad to see you tried this out and it worked so wonderfully! Now time to look for investors and turn these into a product haha, I think a lot of VCs would jump at the chance to invest in this if you pitched it as the next "boosted board". Anyways, keep up the awesome work!

Hey, thanks for the love and interest! I have made some updates to the design, but I started a new job so I haven’t had time to film anything yet. I am still deciding if I want to sell electric skates or parts for them. What I really need is some way to gauge interest

Definitely being reminded of Escend (with the two wheeled arrangement) and AtmosGear (with your powering of each blade with the pack and wires to each leg). 😉 It's nice to see you able to flow in some way without power, plus slot in regular wheels like normal inlines too!

hey, nice build! love that you could get a very low resistance even using belts. question though: did the gear on the side of the wheel scraped the floor? I see the you made a very thin gear so itmay not be a problem, so I was just wondering what was your experience.
@collinbardini7 ай бұрын
Thanks! The pulley was a large consideration for this design because I was concerned about it contacting the ground. I am pleased to say it has not been a problem. The skates can get to a 30 degree angle before contacting the ground. Additionally, the pulley is on the outside because I tend to make tighter inside turns.

@collinbardini10 ай бұрын
Thanks! I’m not sure about the battery life. It’s difficult to directly compare the two without collecting a lot more data. Belts are usually much more efficient than chain, though

would putting another motor to drive the front wheel be something doable?
@collinbardini8 ай бұрын
This would be technically possible, but I don’t think there would be much benefit. You would get more torque, but there would be twice as much hardware, which would be heavier and cost more.

would there be any possible way to take the energy from fakie/backwards skating and use it to recharge the battery while you move backwards?
@eyyyKim10 ай бұрын
This was something I was thinking of... Using the actual man power to charge the battery. Kinda like taking your foot off the accelerator in a hybrid car and it goes "green/eco mode" to charge the battery
@collinbardini10 ай бұрын
This is definitely possible! The skates have regenerative breaking right now so you would just lay on the breaks as you skate. Regenerative breaking isn’t very efficient (maybe 10%) so you won’t get a lot out of it, but it’s better than nothing! Going downhill is where it makes the most sense imo
