Boosted Dual (2nd Gen.) vs Elwing Boards E1-500

Riders are able to go up hills at a 20% grade or less with this board. Which is great for those that want to use one in hilly areas.

When the brakes are used, the battery is recharged with the generated energy. This allows the user to get longer battery life, which can help one travel further or save on charge time.

Most longboarders prefer a flexible design. Flex is subjective, and while you may like it or hate it, Boosted does not let you pick flex for your specific weight or flex preference.

When the battery is dead, it can be ridden like a regular skateboard.

Boosted has great customer support and help forums. You can ask questions about the board, handling updates, and advising potential fixes.

You can use the USB port on the board for various third-party accessories, such as LED lights.

The board is equipped with adjustable power limits, ensuring there’s a riding mode that’s appropriate for users of every skill level.

The Boosted Dual comes with a loaded Vanguard deck, Caliber trucks and Orangatang wheels as well as two brushless motors. While the price may be seen as steep, what you get in comparison to other boards are nice components that are meant to last.

The Boosted Board has a very appealing design with bright colors. It looks very similar to a regular longboard, so it doesn't draw too much unwanted attention.

The board can be charged from empty to full in as little as 30 minutes. This makes charging time shorter than riding time if you’re using Eco mode.

This board only weighs about 15 lbs, but can move at speeds up to 20 MPH. Boards with similar top speeds usually weigh two to three times as much as the Boosted Board.

The remote is equipped with LED lights, so it can be seen in the dark. It comes with an ergonomic thumbwheel that controls speed as well as direction. The LED display shows how much battery life is left.

31 inches long, it's the size of a regular skateboard. It's easy to carry or put it in your backpack. It's light enough to carry it effortlessly. The handle on the top makes it even easier.

That speed is more than enough for urban use and for this skateboard size. You can commute faster than most city bicycles.

You can DM the Elwing team if you have any issues. You will receive spare parts and individual support quickly.

The modes are distinguished by the top speeds: 10km/h and 27km/h.

The wheels provide good rebound and make the board very comfortable to ride by absorbing the vibrations and impact from surface imperfections.

Great for ollies, short turns, and endless manuals.

Because of the in-wheel motor, you can kick-push it like a regular skateboard, which is convenient for when the battery dies.

If you kick-push twice before starting to use the throttle to accelerate, you can save a lot of energy and extend the range.

It costs much less than high-end boards, yet offers similar top speed and range as the Boosted Single ($999), for example.
