Metroboard Unveils its New Super Reliable, Vibration Proof, and Interference-Free IR Remote

This week we built and shipped the first 3 boards with the new IR remote, and everything went smoothly, and things are working very nicely.  See the following pics showing the new remote and receiver.  We will now exclusively be using the new IR remote.  Upgrade kits for existing customers will be available in about a month (once we get a bit more field data to make sure there aren't any issues).  We think you will be quite pleased!

Super fast DHL international shipping at an affordable price!

We are happy to offer super fast DHL shipping to our international customers with shipping times typically just 2-4 business days all around the world.  In the past we used US Postal Service Priority International Mail which was the most cost effective option (about half the price of FEDEX or UPS International), but shipping times were 1 to 2 weeks and tracking wasn't great.  We were recently contacted by a reseller of DHL shipping, and surprisingly the shipping rates were competitive with US Postal Service, but with much quicker delivery times!  Feel free to contact us for an exact shipping quote to your country.

Electric Skateboard Racing Stripe

We normally paint our aluminum battery cover bracket (the structural component that holds the battery box to the deck) black to blend in with the battery box, but we've been playing around with other colors to make the product more eye-catching.  What do you think of this "racing stripe"?  Yeah or nay?

70 year old man from Singapore Collects Small Electric Skateboards!

Our oldest customer, age 70, in Singapore. Owns 5 of our boards! He insisted on getting as small of a board as possible. His shortest board is the "stumpboard" (3rd from left) which was basically our shortboard with the nose and tail chopped off!
From left to right: 27" Arbor Bogart, 27" Gravity Mini with tail removed!, 20" stumpboard, 23" Flexdex Grenade, and 41" Landyachtz Bamboo Totem (for the occasional Sunday ride!)
