  • How I became a weeb

    in

    Hi my name’s Daniel and I’m a weeb. Prior to watching Attack on Titan, I hadn’t watched any anime tv series in over a decade. Once in a while I might watch a mainstream anime movie, but otherwise, anime just wasn’t part of my life. That changed because of Attack on Titan. For those unfamiliar…

  • Segway SuperScooter GT2 Review

    in

    The SuperScooter GT2 is a high end electric scooter made by Segway with a whopping price tag of $4000, or a discounted price of $3500 on Indiegogo. I have a review unit loaned to me from Segway. My henchman Max has thoroughly tested it, and I’ve ridden it a little myself as well. The GT2…

  • Ownboard Zeus Pro Upgrades

    in

    Ownboard has always been an important e-skate brand to follow. They might feel like just another factory pumping out less expensive boards using common parts (Hobbywing ESC, Dongxingwei motors, etc.) but their contributions to electric skateboarding have been significant.

  • WowGo Mini 2 Review

    in

    WowGo has really stepped up their brand image this past year. The Mini 2 is in my opinion not just the most attractive board that WowGo has released so far, but one of the best looking short electric skateboards available today. Let’s start off this review with the skate parts. Skate parts The deck on…

  • DKWAN Rehab

    in

    Help me get back on a board again! Sales of the DKWAN Rehab line of merch will go towards my physical therapy bills. What happened? I broke my ankle from a longboarding accident. The break was a bimalleolar fracture, meaning the bottom parts of both the tibia and fibula broke. My broken bones are now held…

  • Propel Endeavor Pro Review

    in

    The Propel Endeavor series of electric skateboards is vastly different from all of the other boards I’ve covered on my channel so far. It is so different that there are a few important things you need to know to decide if this board is right for you. What are its strengths? What are its flaws?…

  • I’m recovering from a broken ankle

  • Meepo Hurricane Review

    in

    In my last video, I told you why I feel the Meepo Hurricane is a landmark product for Meepo Board and how it out-specs many of its competitors, such as the Evolve Hadean. Now let’s get into the detailed review. Electronics Like I said in the previous video, the Meepo Hurricane uses a 12S4P 726Wh…

    Insta360 is having a sale at the moment (Aug 25 to Sep 6) so now’s a good time to share my thoughts about their cameras and hopefully help you decide which one(s) to get or not get. If you don’t know me, I make a bunch of videos about electric skateboards and frequently use Insta360…

  • Exway X1 Max Review

    in

    Below is a transcript of my video review of the Exway X1 Max electric skateboard. In a world where e-skaters want more range, more speed, more flex, more thrust, more girth, more gimmicks, Exway dares to release a board that’s more of the same – but better. What’s different about the X1 Max compared to…
