Let customers speak for us
I've ridden quite a lot of boards in the past to present and almost none of them comes close to this production board. Linnpower has spent a good amount of time in their electric skateboard lab to create such an incredible board that has insane amount of power and top quality parts. I went with OX ER because I wanted an electric skateboard that delivers crazy range as well as stability on top speed as well as power and acceleration. This board packs with whopping 16S FOC Hobbywing 9058 customized ESC that can pull 100A as well as 16S6P Samsung 50S 1728Wh with a high quality BMS that delivers long range that can take me anywhere almost with almost zero sagging. Linnpower's remote has stylish CNC machined aluminum alloy frame and the CNC metal scroll wheel when most companies that includes remote that feels ultra cheap. Linnpower also offers to sell gear drive adapters for so many wheels that most brands don't offer for their gear drive which is a plus. These NEXT racing slick tires are ultra grippy but has wobbly issues which they said it is normal for tires like these and tires has been fine at 22PSI. I did swap it to MadMax 125's with a set of Kegel gear drive adapter (included with 8 spacers) which basically turned this board into modified JDM sports car which should give me that extra range while sacrificing some top speed with this setup.
This board has become my dailies and even though it is ultra heavy which is hard to bring it to work but that arm workout also makes this board incredible. You'll be jacked up in a year with this board, trust me. The stock bushings makes this board turn like absolute tank but set of RipTide bushings should improve the overall manoeuvrability and stability. The gear drive is insanely well made and it is sealed to protect from dust and water. This board isn't fully waterproof however so I'd avoid riding this in the rain even though this board has good amount of water resistant pads around the ESC which is placed on the top.
Top mounted ESC has easy access for power switch as well as charging port with a sweet red anodized CNC casing for better heat dissipation. The charger that comes with this board has built in fan which cools down when it gets warn which I honestly think should come standard for all boards. This board does not have standby mode so you'll have to turn the board on manually which I think is better than having smart battery feature that drains for no reason.
Linnpower OX ER is an electric skateboard that is overall well put together and beautiful split angled trucks with red baseplate and anodized red anti-sink plate actually keeps me stable at high speed with the real forged trucks including 10mm axles that has zero chance of breaking off. The remote is insanely responsive and being able to tune it via Tuya App makes this board definitely customizable if riders doesn't want that crazy power but to enjoy commuting in a chill speed. If you are living in Canada, this board is available in Canadian warehouse right now so you don't have to wait up to 70 days like I did. -cry emoji-
Get this board, explore the world and enjoy it!
Easy install fits as aspected. (Great product)
I watched hours and hours of you tube videos lol. In January I bought a budget board for 450, it was amazing but I wanted more. Power when I wanted it and speed on demand. I searched everything I could, watched reviews, and read every reddit thread I could find. I almost bought a meepo..... then I found the ox and the one. I was in a predicament. I like to go fast, I like the sleekness of both. But it came down to range, clearance, and length, im 6'3". So I went with the ox er. Going from a budget board with a lanky scroll wheel to this naturally the first thing I did was ease into it in 1 mode to get a feel for it. I liked it so I bumped up n up to 3, cruising at 20 effortlessly with no vibration was amazing. The second thing I did was take for granted the torque and acceleration. My board to this day is set at 50% acceleration. But when I hit that throttle, in 3 mind you, already doing 25mph, the board was gone n I was on my butt. Lesson learned.
The acceleration is there all the way up, it'll jump at 35 right to that 40 mark. I ride full gear very aggressively and it has never felt slow. Battery sag is not a thing. At less than 10 percent you lose 2 or 3 mph on the top end but it gets there just as fast. I've never used my full range in one ride, but I hope to some day, I get around 40 on a charge I think.and fast, 40 miles doing 15 mph is one thing but full tilt 40 in an hour on this board is possible. And the way it looks, sounds and feels is sublime. I've installed the 13 t gear, still feel no need to turn the acceleration up. If I had to change something, cause I did it was bushings, went with riptide 90 a pranks. I ride in a small town, lots of grid streets and needed a little more carve. It did the trick. It's a beautiful board, i ride it to work and the first thing people say is im crazy, the second is that it looks like something iron man would ride. It's so beautiful my boss asked me to ride it in a parade behind his float. When I installed the 13 t gear I noticed a stripped hole in the motor mounting bracket and support helped me fix it temporarily and dealt with a replacement. When my charger took a dive they helped with that too. The customer service is crazy good, same day, shipping parts right away. I want to thank them. Im looking forward to a group ride cause this boards the show piece, hands down a whole different vibe than ur typical esk8, an eye catching speed demon.
Really couldn’t recommend this board more.
I’ve been riding push boards for about 7 years now and finally decided to pull the trigger on an e-board. I had heard a lot of great things about LINNPOWER, and after 2 months of ownership and 400 miles / 650 kilometers on the board, I can say the praise is deserved.
I primarily ride carvy dancing boards, so with the Zephyr Max’s wider profile and DKP trucks, I had a feeling it would be a great fit. The stock bushings feel great at my weight of 220 lbs, but a few lighter friends have mentioned they feel a little stiff, which makes sense for a DKP setup on an e-board.
Thankfully, the trucks are compatible with Riptide bushings, so I bought a few different kits to mix and match. After dialing it in, this has genuinely been the best riding experience I’ve had in 7 years of skating.
As a heavier rider, I was also really impressed by the acceleration. S+ mode is no joke and has nearly thrown me off multiple times, lol. The power is absolutely there.
Another thing I really appreciate is that the ESC settings are very customizable through the remote, letting you fine-tune things like acceleration, braking, and speed limits to match your riding style.
On top of the board itself being great, LINNPOWER’s customer service has been phenomenal. I’ve consistently pestered them with all kinds of questions over the last few months, and they’ve always gotten back to me in a timely manner, especially considering the time zone difference. They’ve been helpful every time.
Overall, I’m extremely happy with the Zephyr Max 50S and would absolutely recommend it to both seasoned riders and anyone coming from push boards who wants a powerful, customizable e-board.
I have 2 skateboards already, a Propel X4S and an Ecomobl24 Pro, both about 2 years old and amazing. I mostly ride on trails but it can be hard to transport them and I even have to drop the back seats to fit them in my car. I love both those boards but they're too big for urban riding so I looked for a smaller, lighter street board and came across the Linnpower. I got the Pro in gear drive knowing I can occasionally ride light gravel and broken pavement and man, this board soaks it up. It's light, fairly compact, has an adjustable wheel base and is crazy quiet. Everything is amazing CNC aluminum and it's almost too pretty to use. Honestly it's such a different and cool experience I might put more miles on my Zephyr than the Propel or the Ecomobl. Shipping was super quick too and I have a tail light on the way for safe riding, until then I'll stick to sidewalks and enjoy the ride.
First off, this board is feels like a dragster! The somewhere between 3500 and 4500 watt power delivery is monstrous. Im So glad I was able to put on bindings because not sure how I would've been able to turn. I got some 9in tire rings and put on 10in tires because the clearance from the geardrive to the ground is about an inch or two. The things that worry me most are; one, FedEx decided to delay the shipping for three days which kind of sucks when you've got a board this cool stuck in a truck three miles away; two, when installing the bigger wheels the tire was rubbing against the geardrive. Now this wouldn't have been such a problem if either spacers could be installed or the truck axles were longer, neither of which i found particular simple to do. Three, geardrive. Now there's a couple things I've found quite interesting to mention. One is that the geardrive gasket tore a while ago and the replacement was really confusing because there seemed to be an infinite number of things to replace on the website. Four, remote. Now this may or may not be a defective remote but for some reason the odometer is very wrong. It said I've gone 251.4 miles, but a month ago it said somthing around ~500. The holder for the bearings broke when I saw inside it and now the thumb wheel feels like it has sand in it. I have fallen on the board, but the remote suffered minor scratches, not major damage. Five, the patented binding holes. This shouldn't happen, I dont think, but while I was riding on a trail the screw and the patented part broke free and is now lost. This may be because either the screw was too tight or lose. The screws that came with the trampa bindings did not fit the patented binding holes but I had some that do fit. This binding situation i just wanted to mention since its probably on my part. Now, the good. One, range. I was able to get 31.5 miles of range on hilly and rough terrain as a 130lbs rider. This was amazing since I could possibly get 40-45 miles of range, which is great. Two, parts. All the materials used on this machine are either aluminum, steel, or wood. No cast trucks or crap bolts that strip. I've had this board for four months now and is still snappy as hell and doesn't sag to much when on low battery. I can't wait until the 5.1 geardrive launches. To sum it up, great board great company and great service.
This gearing change allowed me to go from 62.3 km/h to 77.6 km/h just by replacing this part, and for stability I recommend wide tires.
Well, it's a handle so not much could go wrong. That said, it's well made with a precise fit. No instructions, but you can work it out. That said, here are my tips.
The handle is in 3 pieces: 2 side mounting brackets and a center piece. The brackets are mounted to the gear housing. You will need to remove the existing bolts (see photo). Mount the brackets using the included longer M4x20 bolts (the M4x12 bolts are for attaching the center piece to the brackets). The existing bolts can be removed with the short end of a 3mm Allen key, but the tires get in the way of installing the bracket. You can either remove the wheels or, like me, use a ball-end Allen key which can be used at a slight angle. Do use caution when tightening as a ball-end key is more likely to strip the head.
The CNC machining is quite precise, but you can slightly feel the edges. There are no burrs, but if you're picky about that you can gently use a bit of fine grit sandpaper on the edges.
As you can see from the last photo, the bash guard does allow you to prop the rear end on a Propel folding stand. Before, I was resting the board nose down with the truck hanger on the stand's mounting points.
Very happy with this!
Very fast customer service and great quality board indeed. If you want a great and punchy electric board, this will be a good match for you. And if you got any troubles with the board at all, their customer service is top notch and I highly recommend this board. I have previously used other brands and the quality on this board is just outstanding. I'm writing this review after 6 months of usage and putting 300 my miles on the board.
Perfect truck for on and off road balance solid strong but still carvy and balanced at high speeds i take dirt trails on a daily and heavy city riding so the strength of the truck are perfect for those crazy city potholes 10out of 10 for me
Amazing off road performance no more snapped belts and guaranteed immediate torque for my off road monster 🔥🔥👍🏼
Extremely responsive and playful board with impressive range. I also love how upgradeable it is, allowing you to fine-tune the setup depending on your riding style.
But what really stands out is the performance — it's simply insane. Smooth, powerful, and incredibly fun to ride. Every session is truly exciting and puts a huge smile on my face. Top speed with 13T 77,6 km/h -- 48Mph
It's taken me a while to write this because I've been just so impressed it's been hard to put into words. I've clocked 2000 trouble free kms in 2 months on my ER and think now is a good time. I'm glazing it a bit because I really, really, REALLY like it - but I'm going to try to be as balanced and thorough as possible. Long story short, I'm blown away with every single aspect of this board. It's made my commutes faster and safer, has been a joy for exploring the city and having fun on, zero problems, and is just top notch in every regard. It's what I've ALWAYS wanted in an esk8. So, SO happy I bought it.
I wanted a board I could keep up with moderate speed traffic on, a board with range to get all the way across my giant city and explore without worrying about range, a board I could trust. It's more than delivered on every count. In these two months, I've honestly had some peak life experiences on this board, it's been that good.
Pros:
- Great acceleration, easily out accelerates cars off stop lights. Near motorcycle acceleration from a stop, good rolling punch. I've taken it to 65km/hr.
- Stability. Even going over torn up roads at speed, it's very confidence inspiring. With my current bushings, feels rock solid until near 60km/hr while it's still carvable and nimble.
- Amazing brakes, can confidently go down even the steepest hills without worry that brakes won't be able to handle it, and great in traffic.
- Unbeatable value for specs/quality.
- Range, I've been getting 50km+ on the ER at ~120kg, riding hard on pneumatics in extremely hilly terrain.
- Stellar and flawless build quality.
- Looks SO cool.
- Quieter than other gear drives I've used, seems really solid.
- Customer Support - quick to respond, excellent English, really knows the product and sport, passionate and cares.
- Tires (the ER tires say they are 'racing only' but they work great on rough and broken road surfaces, grass, light moisture - they are amazing grippy general city tires). At 2000kms original tires are still going strong. Haven't had a flat yet.
- Remote isn't fancy, but feels premium with aluminum wheel and is excellent. Zero micro-disconnects so far.
- Genius wheel design allows changing tires with no tools.
- Really like the top mounted charging port, top mounted ESC is clever and unobtrusive.
- Overall ride feel and comfort. Perhaps I liked the feel of my much loved Carbon Zeus Pro a tiny, tiny bit more, but the advantages this has over that are too numerous to count, and...well, my Zeus had frequent issues and is now broken, while this is still riding like new. No other board I've owned even compares in terms of overall feel.
Cons:
- Bushings it ships with are too hard to really be usable; budget another $20 for different bushings. Something like 99a(stock)/95a rear, 92a/90a front (barrels, and just a guess as I experimented from a bag of unmarked bushings I had until I was happy). Of course, dialing in the bushings are something you should do on every board, as the right setup depends on your weight and preference.
- No VESC fine tuning - acceleration/braking curves are perfect for me though.
- No built in lights. I far prefer high end flashlights/head lamps/helmet mounted LED blinkers, find low set board mounted headlights useless. I'm happy they put money into huge battery instead of things like this or VESC.
- Heavy - STRONGLY recommend buying the carry handle. Carts much better upside down.
- Doesn't have any sort of 'trick' truck system like channels etc. The TKPs it has are excellent, though.
- White motors discolor quickly.
- No official IP waterproof rating. However, they told me in chat that it does have very good water ingress protection (and I've ridden in the rain several times). But they officially advise against it and didn't want to IP certify/guarantee it. Note the ESC being on top naturally protects it from puddle splashes.
- Wide turn radius
Note that I had to stretch to write these cons; none are really flaws, just design decisions.
All in all, honestly it's a 10/10. If you're thinking of buying a longboard style esk8, you should look hard at this board, and it should probably be the one you go with. If you go cheaper, you'll likely be disappointed and might have to pay more for parts/maintenance (although other cheaper Linnpowers like the EVO MK-1 look awesome as well). You probably won't get a substantially better experience spending a lot more. This is the sweet spot, sets a new standard in every way, and should be on everyone's shortlist.
Note I haven't really done any off road on it or any jumping; just street riding, although often on really torn up streets.

I bought the rooster off a lady on FB Marketplace selling stickers for wheelie bins. Cut it...
Amazing amazing amazing 🤩
I swap pushing to black tightening back pushing more than front one
Add the 13t gear ⚙️ less and smoother throttle for the one prime
Lower the deck from original set up ( not racing kit )
Now it’s way more stable and easier throttle curve , the board is a piece of Art very comfortable more controlled with no wobble at 60 km/h 😍
