Introducing the Freeboard – the easiest skate you’ll ever take
The electric skateboard revolution is hitting the streets of South Africa and Houdt has introduced the Freeboard – the longboard that makes short work of your commute. Powerful motors defy gravity and battle punishing hills, allowing you to coast the streets with ease while travelling at a maximum speed of 30km/h. The sleek, springy bamboo deck offers awesome shock absorption, even on the roughest of pavements.
The Houdt Freeboard comes in two forms, the Rider and the Cruiser. With a handheld remote that controls the direction of the board while you ride – it’s the easiest skate you will ever take. With adjustable speed, high-performance braking and a simple, super-responsive remote control. It has regenerative braking – so if you’re travelling downhill and braking a lot, you’ll actually end up charging the board and restoring a bit of power!
Why sweat? Exercise your power to change the game. To see the Houdt Freeboard in action view this video.
