Some electric skateboards are nice sedate things, designed for leisurely commutes on city sidewalks. The Mach One isn't one those boards. It boasts a Formula 1 racecar-inspired design, a carbon deck, and a top speed of 45 mph (72 km/h).
I think it’s safe to say this board isn’t intended for the average user and i don’t think that’s a problem.
I would say that things like this arent really micro-mobility because of that. They’re high-performance, enthusiast-grade products whereas, IMO, micro-mobility is more about mass-adoption.
What I could see this being used for is some sort of closest to actual quidditch we could get, some really complex skate-park but which is sort of like a track, at least symmetrical like a playing field.
Like rollerderby-skateboard-lacrosse-rollercoaster-quidditch
Although I think if emulating quidditch, just powerful e-scooters with saddles, lol.
I’ve had the idea for years but I’m not youtube millionaire who could tell people to give me money for such a thing and actually expect to get it

I feel like I’ve heard of people doing that on OneWheels. I’m not sure.
Sounds fun though!
Pets get drunk and discord brainstorm.
I’m only half joking but I’m prolly gonna start getting drunk like 12 hours from now.
Bougie micromobility is still micromobility. I would totally ride one of these (at 10-15 mph lol)
You’re right, i just distinguish between bougie and high-performance. They’re very different goals.
It’s a Venn diagram situation IMO
