- >“The best electric skateboards being made right now are from Boosted, and the best one Boosted makes is the newest version of the same longboard they've been making for the last few years.”— The Verge

- >“It has the best, and smoothest, stopping power of any electric skateboard on the market, which is a huge deal when you're traveling at those speeds.”— The Verge
