Works great when driving on straight dirt roads but it has trouble sometimes when I start from a bumpy point. I have to sometimes move the board off of a little bump because it doesn't have enough torque to go off of if from 0 mph.

It can go up an incline but only at about 6 to 8 mph. It has some trouble even though I only weigh 155 pounds

To be fair I have used it non stop, long rides and short rides. Nearly 800km. In these 2 months. The delivery option with DHL was perfect, it’s an a extra
Cost but I received in within 3 working days.

I ordered, and it’s been long past expected delivery, I’m talking over 14 days, customer service just says it’s “somewhere and on the way”. Trying to get refund. Smh 🙁

everything i can advise is in description

pictured is not the last version, i tried stuff and just put the battery closer to the front truck, better stability. This is the "test" setup, and, i have tested, i'm convinced.

I had troubles finding what product would be the best for me on the internet : was looking for belt drive for using orangatang wheels, sufficient range, and safety
i'm do downhill longboarding at a european competitive level so i just would not buy a flexy, flat, big board. I user an old Jet board, 9.5", 84/90a front and -5° 88/97 back
took only one slam because of a wet patch i did not see (helmet is MANDATORY whatever your skill)

did 280km, 70km/h downhill seems to be close to the limit of the trucks even on a big board, and my average speed on this is around 30, so 2minutes per kilometer. Super handy for commuting, super fun, you can have downhill like full grip runs almost anywhere, easy 45 km/h on the flat...

only thing i'm a little worried about are the belt, because i may be way more brutal with my board than most reviewer on the web and it tends to touch rocks and big cracks. I'll get bigger wheels as soon as one fails, will fix the issue.

Let me know if i can send you a clip or two, @maxime.moineau on instagram/youtube

And good work putting an insert for the back truck, few knows but... yeah i don't have any downhill setup without inserts or sphericals. Just better.

Would advise, but take it easy it goes fast enough to get hurt !

May do a review some day but the weather in France is not that good this season.

The board's specs and features perfectly matched what I read on the site before purchasing. I even measured my last trip cruising around SLC and I can confirm that it got a little under 19 miles in range. the battery will obviously wear out over time but the fact that it got more than the advertised range is awesome! If I'm ever in the market for another electric longboard I will certainly come back to ownboard.

If I did have one criticism though, They claimed to have boards waiting in their warehouse in California but they didn't have any of the W2 pros so it took significantly longer to arrive than they advertised at check out. This wasn't a massive issue however as It's currently winter and I'm not the type without patience.

My experience with Ownboard started with a Zeus Pro Carbon that I bought on Facebook for a decent deal with trading a one wheel (not my thing). I bought that board with 200 miles on it, it now has over 3000 miles on it (no joke). This new Prometheus is insanely comfortable, thanks to ownboard and the other companies involved with the production of this board. Keep this trend going!

Again...Thanks!

there is not a lot to say because it is almost perfect !
delivery was long but the ownboard team was always responsive and helpful.
the skate is really powerfull, it behaves really well at high speeds, and the range is HUGE.
the only thing i would like is a bash guard and a handle behind to put my red lights.
i am really happy with my purchase

I am absolutely obsessed with my board. I’m still newish to E-Skating and had another board for a couple of months (brand beginning with E) and it made me fall in love with e-skateboarding but the board was not up to scratch! Changing to the OwnBoard Bamboo AT Pro was like NIGHT AND DAY! I can go skating with my partner and actually keep up with him. I can go up hills with ease. The AT is an absolute WIN! Love OwnBoard, love their customer service. The brand is awesome. Thank you!!!

Once again I received my boars and I am so happy... So fast and smooth.. This a board for 1100$but with price so soooo cool.. Thank you good people.. My seco d board yeey

If you like exploring and taking your board out on long rides. This is the one for you. I’ve ridden over 30 miles without really scratching the limit of the battery, and I’m a heavier rider at 6’4 260. The board does not disappoint. Only thing I should say however. Tighten your screws when you get it. But that’s not an issue.

I've had this charger for about a month now. It's working fine so far for my carbon zeus pro. I really like the upgrade thats
been made to it. Instead of a plastic casing, it's now metal. Far less fragile. Hoping this one outlasts the life of my old charger

My 6” wheels are a good size. I just bought the Prometheus and would prefer 7” wheels to the 8” wheels that the board comes with.

I don't do reviews but this board deserves it. It's really well built, every part is well assembled and no noise during the ride. It's really a beautiful board to, trucks, rims, deck and geardrive, everything is nice. Very good torque, smooth, stable, can go everywhere and a good range. Every minute of ride is a pleasure. Perfect board for me. Thanks Ownboard. 😊

Love the Upgrade motor so much smoother

Compre un producto y nunca me llego, ni me llamaron ni un mensaje ni nada ... me sale que esta en España el paquete pero imposible de localizar y nadie se hace responsable, me hacen hacer llamadas que me cobran por averiguar donde esta el paquete comprado ... fatal

They have a wide range of travel and absolutely no wobble at speed ie very stable when travelling fast.

After putting 1000 miles on my skateboard, the ESC went out. Ordered a new one and it didn't work. Sent pictures of the battery hooked up to a volt meter, pictures, a video, and the answer i got was there is no way their products are bad and to resell it locally at a loss. Hooked up the ESC to my friends functioning skateboard, and nothing. Hooked his ESC to mine and it worked. So $100 down the drain

Ordered a new deck and wheels for my old Ownboard W1, they arrived in very good condition and time frame. The guys from support were very kind and quick to answer my requests and questions. See y’all next time when I’m ready to upgrade my gear!

was pretty easy to set up i had some difficulties making the ride drive ratio but i had contacted onboard and they helped me out. very good product and it looks, feels, and performs amazonia just like the original.

sorry. i have not received any package from you. could you please confirm that you have sent this package?

Here it is…after 380 miles on the Prometheus, I’m ready to spill the tea on the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly! The Good: The quality of build and components are 2nd to none! Reliable and exceptionally powerful LinnPower Gear Drives, Incredible Range, Decks combo of perfect foot feel, stiffness for stability, and just the right amount of flex for shock absorption and fatigue reduction is in a word…perfect! Speaking of perfect, the blissful high pitched whine of those huge motors at around 18+ MPH that sound like wizzzing Jet Turbines is simply music to my ears! Off Road I can attest to the fact that it is truly a Beast! Between the flex of the deck and the agility of those sick MBS Matrix III Trucks…it simply makes short work out of all but the most treacherous of trails! Pro Tip: Learn how to adjust and swap out those highly adjustable bushings to customize your preferences. It’s not only ridiculously easy to do, but they are probably the most customizable trucks on the market for what ever environment or style you prefer! The Bad: You will look and feel Bad A$$ and think you’re invincible at times. Trust me…you’re not! As well, you will get tired of people asking you How fast does that thing go? And then challenging you to show them…like your some kind of circus freak whose gonna take a chance with your life at that exact moment for their amusement?! The Ugly: The sometimes unpredictable throttle delay that OwnBoard has rapidly addressed by reaching out to all its Prometheus customer base and providing them with replacement remote to solve this specific issue! That was simply my only slight concern or complaint, and they’ve addressed it with me before I even said a word…it’s almost like they listen to their customers thoughts…even before they’ve expressed them?! 🤔😱

So much torque, carves very well with the mbs trucks and the linnpower gearbox is smooth and sounds great.
Customer service has been really good!
This is a very high performance package and great bang for your buck. Highly recommend the Ownboard Prometheus!

sometimes the Bluetooth connection of the remote control to the board disappears at speed. How can I fix this problem?

Another quality product from a company you can trust.

I've had the pleasure of owning and riding Ownboard ZEUS for over 2100 miles and it's still going strong. Just a beautiful board.

When I saw PROMETHEUS I had to have it and let me tell you, it's not just transportation; it's an experience! Whether you're a seasoned skater or a newcomer looking for a ride, this board checks all the boxes for performance, design, and sheer fun!

Right out of the box, the board's precision design catches your eye. It boasts a robust construction with a deck that feels sturdy yet flexible, offering just the right balance of stability and responsiveness. The board's aesthetics, with its clean lines and modern look, make it a standout, whether you're cruising through the city streets or off-road.

The motors, which provides serious torque to tackle any grade hill with ease, something that pleasantly surprised me. Acceleration is smooth, thanks to the variable speed trigger, allowing beginners to feel comfortable while giving seasoned riders that adrenaline rush.

Battery life is particularly impressive considering the board's performance capabilities. The board offers a remarkably smooth stable ride at any speed, thanks to the high-quality precision made MBS CNC Matrix III trucks with Linnpower gear drive to create a groundbreaking adjustable drivetrain that has the ability to go from carvy to stable with a simple adjustment.

The remote control feels intuitive, with clear feedback on speed, battery and more status.

Prometheus is a blend of power, design, and range making it an excellent choice for anyone interested in electric skateboarding. While it's an investment, the quality and enjoyment it provides justify every penny. If you're looking for a new way to commute with style or just want to add some electric fun to your life, this skateboard is highly recommended.
