Water/splash resistant

Can tolerate a little bit of water and can be ridden in light rain. Other electric skateboards specifically advise against coming into contact with any water whatsoever.

Is the board made of the traditional wood materials?

Their website says: "Board Material: Canadian Maple Wood, Aircraft Grade Aluminum Frame". They don't mention what the ply count is, unfortunately.

Hey, thanks! I was wondering about the durability of it. Maple wood is strong, and is actually resistant to shocks, so it's a good choice. Mixing aircraft grade aluminum makes it even tougher, I assume.

I don't have the board yet, but after my research, I decided to order one! I'll come back and update with hands-on feedback once I get it in my hands and ride it!

I've had the board for about a week now, and I must say that I'm very pleased with the construction. I don't know much about skateboards, but it is definitely by no means cheaply made! It feels sturdy and solid. Electric boards aren't really recommended for tricks and such, but for crusing around and the daily commute, I think it would hold up well.

My only problem now is getting better at riding the thing!! :)

Hey, Alex! Sounds like you're having a lot of fun! Haha. Thanks for getting back to me about it. Now, I'll definitely look into that. I'm not knowledgeable in skateboards too, but it looks like you got a pretty solid one. I was thinking of getting one stashed in my vehicle to replace my folding bike. I thought an electric skateboard would be nice since it can also get me from place to place and it's much smaller, so I'll still have a lot of room left.
