Overall use, short or longboard

All, had couple different brand electric skateboards mostly longboard, last one was evolve BGT, I am looking to get back in the community with a new board, consider GTX. The questions is, to go to work, cruise around, go do groceries, ride meets, GTX is a great board but huge, on the other hand boosted came with short deck, boosted mini X, and enertion, mid size, overall, considering all types of ride, what do you think would eb the best choice? Comments below. Thanks.

 

If the distance isn't a concern then go with the mid-size board. There are other brands besides boosted that I think are better than the mini.

 

F1KR3T, I agree with johnbe with a couple of additions. I too use my board for all of the reasons you have listed I just have the CGT. The batteries will lose the capacity after a year of normal use so rarely do you get what the specs say you are going to get, even straight up new. For groceries I get what will fit in my backpack which is a pretty decent amount. So I go from being around 185lbs to well over 200 with a full pack and making the distance home with a full pack it important to me. So I prefer the Evolve board not only for the distance and power but because of the many wheel choices. I have settled into 97s but still use the AT and 83 from time to time. I haven't found taking the board into the store an issue as long as I don't hit someone with it where the aisles are narrow. I still ride other standard boards and I can say my 35inch board which is kind of a hybrid park/long board seems really small now but when I 1st got it I thought it was huge so yes these boards are big. All this being said price can also be an issue. Boosted I think is smart for creating different models with different price ranges. Any direction you go enjoy and skate on!

 

Hello friend. You might want to give the boosted mini x a try. I have one myself and overall its a pretty nice deck. It depends if your a skateboarder and if you like boards with or without flex.
