On October 4th,
2016, Leafboard, a Kickstarter backed start-up company, launched a 9.7lb electric
skateboard with a 16-mile single charge range into the marketplace for an
introductory price of $299. This makes it the lightest, sturdiest and most
affordable electric skateboard available today. It comes with a host of other interesting
features including a top speed of 19 miles per hour, a speed limiter so it can
be safely used by younger riders by restricting them to lower speeds, dynamic
brakes and an ability to handle 28% inclines. They also point out the fact that
the board was made with sustainable materials, minimal plastics and operates
longer on its electric battery making it an environmentally conscious product.

partnership between LAX, Westfield, and six other partners, and is expected to
increase sales by 93%.
