    This is a HUGE board I am building right now. It is 6 feet long and 3 feet wide. It is 4WD, twin motors and 12hp.

    Some additional details;

    The board has 4 inches of suspension travel and uses Astro Flight 3210 motors (one per axle). The front and rear axles have differentials and steering dampers.

    Recumpence - that looks pretty cool, how does it ride? What kind of power supply are you using, what are some of the stats? I ride the single track mountain bike trails in the Washington metro area and find it difficult to clear some of the moguls without scraping bottom and making quick turns means keeping the trucks pretty loose. Not sure how that would ride on those trails but looks awesome for some dirt roads and wider trails around here.

    I just rode it for the first time yesterday. It has INSANE power!

    Here is the setup;
    Two Astro Flight 3210 motors (3 turn)
    Two Castle Creations Mamba XL controllers
    Two 6S-20,000 MAH Multistar packs

    Ratio between motors and axles is 16 to 1.
    It has differentials at both axles.
    It uses sterring dampers at both axles.
    Tires are 13.5 inch tall kids ATV tires.
    It has 4 inches of suspension travel.

    Right now I am installing centering springs to reduce steering weave.

    To give you an idea of the size of this board, here is a picture of my longboard beside it. Yes, that is a LONGBOARD next to it! Remember, this thing is 6 feet long......

    Wow - thanks for sharing this. I have to say that beast is very impressive. I also was surprised at just how large it is. With you standing next it really helps put that into perspective. The turning radius is tight for such a large ride. It looks like it would be a blast in the snow too. I tip my hat to you sir.

    Grip tape. The arrow shows which end is front.
