[Samcycles]

how do you not have more subs the vids are so high quality keep it up

[nborsman]

I gotta tell ya... you're second to none when it comes to quality eskate videos and the amount of useful info you put into them. They're super fun and your editing skills are solid! Keep up the good work, Daniel! Your website is a great resource too! I appreciate all the work you put into it all!

Got my Zealot s today. Tracking was almost worthless. The UPS guy put it on my porch and didn't even knock on the door, and it was visible and accessible just 10 feet from the sidewalk, and I live close to downtown and have pedestrians. I didn't get the optional shipping insurance. Next time I will probably have them hold it at the UPS facility. Carefully opened the box and no instructions. Figured the remote out and this thing looks FREAKIN AWESOME. Remote turns everything on or off, reverse goes as fast as forward, remote vibrates and led on remote is easy to read, purple lights are really cool, this is one nice board. I am charging the battery and will test it tomorrow. I don't see how the deck could be any better, the flex and curve looks perfect and it has a real grippy finish. Everything looks super well done. I paid $800 after discount.

My Zealot composite showed up in early Nov 2020. Absolutely love it! Now I'm looking for another board for the springtime as I don't want to be waiting around on a beautiful day while my battery charges so two boards it is. The Zealot S will be MINE! 👍🏻

[korling]

As always, very informative, but even more amusing!

Keep Trucking Daniel. Your reviews are top in class. Love the attention to detail and the added context / conversion of kg / lbs. subtle but adds great context for your US audience. Just got my Zealot. So I’ll wait for the S2 or next gen.
