Gnarboard, an electric powered skateboard recently competed against the Chevrolet Corvette C5. Being the fastest and most powerful skateboard around, this skateboard quickly out passed the powerful vehicle in no time at all. This new electric powered skateboard is powered by four electric motors and was way ahead of the race against a 5.7 liter V8 engined vehicle with a top speed of 200 mph.
The two powerful vehicles participated in a drag race and after a few trials it was surprising to see the speed at which the skateboard could go. Using a hand remote for braking, the skateboard has acceleration from 0 to 28 mph in 1.9 seconds, while even the £1 million Bugatti Veyron can accelerate form 0 to 30 mph in 1.3 seconds while Porsche Boxster takes 2.1 seconds to reach these speeds.
The Gnarboard Trail Rider skateboard is designed by Joshua Tulberg with funding from Kickstart. Those interested in possessing one of these superfast models could take a look at Kickstarter. Here's an electric skateboard that goes from 0-28 MPH in 1.9 seconds.
