V3 FEATURES:

  • Programmable ESC
  • CAN Network Integration
  • AI/ML Integration using Raspberry Pi
  • Arduino Compatibility

Key Features:

  • Comprehensive Kit: Everything your child needs is in the box – all parts, tools, and materials for assembly. Just open the kit and start the journey of discovery!
  • STEM Learning: Dive into the fascinating world of motors, pulleys, and batteries. This kit doesn’t just teach theory; it offers a practical, hands-on approach to understanding engineering and physics fundamentals.
  • Safety First: With a remote featuring four speed modes, kids can learn at their own pace, starting from a gentle 3mph to a thrilling 8mph. Plus, our built-in fire extinguisher feature in the battery ensures peace of mind for parents and educators.
  • Collaborative Building Experience: While an older, experienced child might tackle this project solo, we encourage family or classroom collaboration. It's more than just building a skateboard; it's about building memories.
  • Learning Beyond Assembly: Our easy-to-follow, 1.5 - 3 hours assembly process is only the beginning. With options for customization and an online platform filled with educational content, the learning never stops.
  • Ride with Pride: Beyond the educational value, this skateboard is designed for everyday adventures. Whether it's a ride to school or around the neighborhood, kids will love the freedom and fun of riding something they built with their own hands.

CAN Network

Our patent pending RailCore features an expandable CAN Network! Each module is equipped with a CAN chip, just like in automotive systems, allowing real-time data exchange across modules. This means each module knows what the others are doing and can act on shared data—creating a fully synchronized system.

SAFETY

Safety is our top priority, with features like a built-in fire extinguisher inside the battery for added peace of mind. Ride confidently with instructional safety videos and adjustable speed modes on the remote, allowing kids to start at comfortable speeds as they learn. Every element is designed to make riding both fun and secure.

 

Why Choose Our Kit?

Unlike any other educational toy or kit, our DIY Electric Skateboard not only teaches kids about the inner workings of motors and batteries but also empowers them to create and ride their very own electric vehicle. It's a complete learning cycle: from understanding how each component works, through the assembly process, to the joy of riding and exploring on their creation.

Sustainable and Durable: Crafted with sustainability and durability in mind, this skateboard is not just a learning tool but a long-lasting vehicle for adventure and fun.

Join Our Learning Community: With access to our exclusive online platform, young learners can dive deeper into the science behind the skateboard, explore safety lessons, and discover even more educational content.

Ready to embark on a STEM adventure that combines learning, creativity, and fun? Our DIY Electric Skateboard Kit is more than just a project; it's a launchpad for your child's imagination and a gateway to a lifelong love of STEM. Let's build, learn, and ride into the future together!

Explore the world of coding by programming LED lights on your skateboard or scooter! Using a browser-based, Bluetooth-enabled environment and the language LispBM, you’ll control color, brightness, and patterns based on real-time data like speed, throttle position, and voltage. Tailor your ride to match your style and learn the power of code along the way!

 

Is the kit suitable for beginners with no prior experience?

Justin has been nothing but helpful and professional in my requests for these Boeing Defense requirements. He has been able to answer my questions and concerns quickly, and helped in securing the order that I may have made with another supplier had be not been the value-add that he is to your company. I hope his merit raise this FY was "exceeds expectations".

..I contacted Geyer via email. I had an email back within minutes!.. A back and forth via email sometimes takes days with other companies and customer service doesn’t happen like this very often. When it does, it’s much appreciated. Brett at Geyer was very polite and accommodating!

John C.

The customer service rep went as far as to reach out to the manufacturer of a product to answer my question, and then provided pictures. She really went above and beyond and answered the question thoroughly and gave me exactly the information I was looking for. This entire process was also extremely fast.

Robert C.

I called to ask how to submit a Tax Exempt Certificate for my library and spoke to a real person, no automation or asking me to press a number. He was friendly, helpful and got our Tax Exempt status established immediately.

Mischelle F.

...I don't think I've ever experienced that level of customer service before, and taking it into consideration along with the quality of their products, I would absolutely recommend Geyer to fellow teachers.
