In our pursuit of creating the most powerful and reliable electric skateboard available to the market, we devoted the past year and a half towards product development. We gathered the collective ideas and feedback from our customers and fellow skaters far and wide. The culmination of those ideas and experiences is now manifested in our latest creation: The Zeus Carbon. The Zeus carbon is our most powerful, carve-able, and reliable creation to date.
Not a single detail was spared, not a single stone was left unturned in the development process. In our two-pronged approach, we concentrated on comfort and performance.
We felt that having massive range while lacking comfort meant the full power of the board could not be harnessed. As such, not only did we revamp the shape of the new carbon fiber deck we also improved the construction, the carbon layup process, and the type of materials used. This resulted in a stronger and more ergonomic deck which in turn allows the rider to go further and enjoy the ride longer.
We didn't just stop there. We took comfort to a whole new level by redesigning our trucks. Our redesigned trucks are now traditional kingpin (aka "TKP") trucks. TKPs allow for a surfy DKP feel but with much more stability at speed and without oversteer. We achieved this by redesigning the trucks to feature a split angle, which results in superior carve ability at any speed while also maintaining maximum stability and comfort. You can fine-tune these bad boys with any regular double barrel bushings to your weight and style. However, we have also made this backward compatible with the DKP hangars for those that may still prefer DKP trucks.
The combination of these new split-angle TKP trucks and the revamped deck truly makes for a whole new carving experience unlike any other board in the market. It is guaranteed to make you grin ear to ear.
Once we took care of comfort we tackled the issue of performance. Namely range and power. In our experience, there is a fine balance between range and power. To increase the range we now use 21700 cells with an increased capacity over the previous 18650 cells in a 13S4P configuration giving you the maximum amperage and power to propel you up any hill for hours on end. Our new battery packs a whopping 898 Wh. To harness the increased output performance of the battery the Zeus Carbon features an all-new ESC with a turbo function allowing for maximum performance. We further refined the acceleration and braking curve to deliver stronger acceleration and stronger brakes. The Zeus has blistering fast acceleration with equally strong brakes that will stop you on a dime. The Zeus Carbon can now reach speeds up to 60 km/h with a range of 75km in the 120mm Cloudwheel configuration. In this regard, we truly have harnessed the power of Zeus in the creation of this electric skateboard.

I was one of the first to buy this original Carbon Zeus and I have had zero issues with it. I have put almost 3,000 miles on the board and all I have had to do for maintanence is get a fresh set of cloud wheels after mine wore down with so much mileage.

Amazing and Fun!
Just what i needed, longer range and more power.
The board itself is beautiful and stable to ride :D
Love it!
Great customer service, i live in Norway.

Great board
Build quality is great, very well built for the most part. It’s really fun to ride. Criticisms:
1. to offer air shipping. Waiting over a month for the board was excruciating.
2. I was disappointed to see that the trucks were over tightened without a washer causing two of the bearing cases to be compressed inward causing a clicking sound.
3. The AT wheels are bolted to the pulley making installing them very difficult. It was nearly impossible to set proper belt tension with these wheels.
Aside from these things, I am happy with the purchase.

This board is a beast!
I have been ESK8'ing for about 4 years now and this is my 3rd board. By far this has to be the best board for the money on the market. It is truly a beast. This board has so much power it is unbelievable. I am a light guy (145lb), and this thing propels me like a rocket ship. On the other side of this, the brakes are as strong as can be. I can come to a dead stop as quickly as needed. I think there were some previous concerns about braking but this has been addressed with the new electronics on the PRO version. The deck feels sooo good. I was leary about how the carbon fiber stiff deck would feel as I was used to riding flexy bamboo decks. My concern was erased after the first mile. The stiff deck combined with these TKP trucks is amazing. You feel like you are in control of the board 100% of the time even at high speeds. I have topped mine out at 34mph so far and didn't feel totally afraid. The foamy grip tape is awesome too. Provides a bit of cushion. This board is definitely the board to buy if you're in the market. I'm actually contemplating buying a second board just because it's so awesome. I am currently riding on 120mm Cloudwheels and have front and rear Shredlights installed (which are amazing and soooo bright). I have ordered the Cloudwheel Rovers 165mm and will be installing next week. This board has given me something to look forward too everyday. I use it for fun with friends and on solo rides and I also commute to work on it. Thank you Ownboard for manufacturing such an amazing machine!

Thrilling!
Nothing but great experience with Ownboard customer service. They were delayed on my Zeus order so they sent me the PRO for free instead. This board is so fast it's scary lol. Perfect in every sense.

Zeus Pro Carbon is a GO!
What can I say other than quit waiting and get your board ordered today! A board where it's beauty is matched by it's performance. Check out my detailed review on my YouTube channel killersushi99.

I have an own board m1 mini this was my first eclectic skateboard and to say i impressed is an understatement. after putting over 790 miles on one battery it was was done more than reasonable. I use this board for daily errands . the power is amazing i get about 9 miles from a full charge very reasonable considering i weigh 230 LBS. i sure have put this board through some rough situations that should have killed the board but didn't. I would love to see regenerative braking on some of ownboards more budget friendly boards
Works well. I had to email the company because it is loud and hot. But they said it should sound like a coffee maker and that is exactly what it sounds like. So far it works just fine though. The old charger I had was some other brand and worked for about a year before it melted into oblivion. So far so go (2 months in) on this official charger.
It’s been well past the 40 days of shipping and I still don’t even know when it’s supposed to get here. I was sent an email that I should know when it will be arriving 4 days ago but I still don’t know.
We finally upgraded to a production board with real power vs the smaller hub motors. She carves like a dream. The local kids flagged me down to give it a try.
I was very disappointed with my remote. There was malfunctioning immediately once connected to my board. I’ve spent at lease 3 instances providing all requested information and trying to get support, to which there was 0 help. Definitely one of the worst customer support experiences I’ve had.
I don't have a massive experience of E-skate, but the Zeus is a big step up from the boards I had before. Very stable, very smooth acceleration and breaking, quality finish, it's a pleasure to ride. Tested with the AT wheels, still to be tested with the cloudwheels, but I don't expect the sensations to be lower.
Even if it's not too complicated, it would be good to have a little user notice for the remote set up.
TL:DR: W2 Pro has more than enough power, adequate range, versatile wheels, quiet comfortable ride and I’m happy with my purchase. Be prepared for delays when ordering to EU. Tighten the trucks, loosen the belts, wear gear, increase the speed gradually, learn from as many sources as you can, be safe and have fun.
