Before you ride it’s always good to check the hardware attaching the wheels and trucks. Make sure everything is tight. Once the board and remote have been turned on, give it a little throttle whilst lifting the wheels off the ground to make sure the board is responding as it should. It’s also a good idea to check how much battery life you have, to make sure you have the range to make the journey.

If you are comfortable working on your board and have the tools, make sure to re-apply Loctite to the end of the screw when putting it back in. Another option is to take it to your local skate shop, they will have the tools and expertise to help you out.

To clean your wheels, rub the wheel surface with rubbing alcohol. For the bearing use a q-tip to clean out any dust/residue.

Yes! Through our app, you can turn the LED lights on or off.

If you’re running low on charge, you can go in the app and change the riding mode to conserve battery. Or you can push the flat parts of your journey, and save the power for tougher sections.

Yes. 

When plugged into a wall, no. However, when the board is fully charged, don’t use the brakes for an extended period as this could over-charge the battery due the regenerative braking capabilities.

On any of the wheels that don’t contain hub motors, yes. You can use any 83mm wheels to replace them. For the hub motors we sell new shells that can be found here.

The motors themselves, no. However, you can purchase new shells for the motors if the wheel has reached the end of its life. If the motor needs replacing, and it’s still under warranty we will fix that for you.

No, that will void your warranty

The Blink QU4TRO is made from a combination of aluminum and carbon fiber. The Blink S2 and S are made of Canadian Maple.

Yes! All our boards can go into reverse if necessary.

Other than hub shells, you cannot replace any of the mechanical/electrical components. However, the non-powered wheels and trucks are normal skateboard parts, so can be customized to be whatever you want.  

To use the remote, first off make sure it’s on. Then very carefully move the throttle forward to control the motion of the board. Once you’re in motion, pull the throttle backwards very slowly to apply the brakes.

The remotes can be used with other examples of the same board, but cannot be used with any of our other boards.

This will vary on what batteries you purchase for your remote.

Each board has a different capacity battery, with different ranges. The battery life will vary depending on speed and terrain.

To charge the battery, remove the small, black tab in the charging port and insert the charging cable provided.

Yes, no problem

Depending on how depleted your batteries are, and which board you have, the charging time can take up 3 hours.

You can keep riding the board as if it were a normal skateboard. You might notice a little resistance from the hub motors but that’s normal.

If you know you’re not going to head out riding for a while, make sure to periodically charge your board to make sure the batteries don’t completely deplete.

Once you board is powered on, open the app and in the top right hand corner is a '+' sign. Press that and you should be able to connect the board.

Upon opening the app, it will prompt you to sign or make an account. Opt for the make an account option and follow the instructions.

If you are signed into the app, on the home screen it will show your miles covered and the global ranking amongst all our other riders.

If the app isn’t working, try checking to see if you have latest version of our app in your app store.
