Well I binged the whole series and it was so so sweet! Brilliant content and next level or two build. Really impressed with how you work. Nothing seams to phase you and the way you switch doing one thing to another amazes me. I tend to do one thing at a time and have to complete that bit. I have much to learn it seams. Fantastic showcase of your work and just what goes into these machines. I'm proud to own and ride an Apex customs board that's for sure 👍
Simon Churchley ah Simon that means a lot Brother! I’m constantly learning better techniques and improving my builds all the time. The CNC helps me solve lots of problems man - I love having that
Cool to watch you put it together. Like that dohicky on the front of the board. Thought to myself, why don’t I have that?! Well I don’t look down much, and I have the Flipsky VX2 which has some telemetry, not the most accurate but whatever. Those spacers were a perfect solution to the problems. I think the though you put into these boards is what separates you guys from the rest! Keep up the great work.
Quite a professional build, Lee, and I expected nothing less. It is amazing the high tech machines anyone can now get for their garage or workshop. I reckon if you put your mind to it you could build right there in your shop a spacecraft to land the first man on Mars. He or she would definitely want to bring one of your custom board builds along:)
Haha! It is amazing that we have access to these tools right at home now. I love being able to problem solve with advanced tools like this. Even a few months ago making that aluminium spacer would have been impossible but here we are! I have some more advanced projects swimming around in my mind but we are so busy right now it's impossible to start!
Great series Lee, you inspire a lot of people dude! Look for sexbolts to level the bottom of the battery case. It may be usefull for future builds. Thanks for what you teach us!
100%. 9 inch tyres are not very good for general riding. They decrease torque, decrease range decrease agility and generally make the board feel more sluggish. They are great for grip, just not for anything else
Preach man, my first DIY ran into so many issues. Was hoping to be riding it by now, but I won't be riding till the weekend most likely! But, more importantly.... Gahhhhhhhh!!!! I want one of these so bad!!!
Hey lee quick question. I’m loving Yens’ vesc 6 case, but it’s over $200. Do you have any ideas or recommendations for Vesc cases that look good like Yens’?
That's an awesome board right there! Well done again. I especially loved that wooden battery box floor with the engraved name/message. That was a really nice touch that makes that board "his" board. Ever consider staining the wood? 🤙
I would have but no time and all that, needed to get it done! Thanks man, it is the little touches that make a build. Nobody will ever see that... but its there
Hy Lee. Awesome build!👍 wouldn't it be better if you set up the VESC's with inflated tires to prevent imbalance while mesuring the flux of the motorconfiguration?
Mario Schmid maybe, I’ve never noticed it causing any issues over the years. There was a school of thought many moons ago to not even have the belts on when doing detection. In practice it makes little difference for esk8 I think, maybe I’m wrong though!
I like this build, the only couple of points id make is instead of taking all that time making the bracket for the esc, surely some washers and longer bolts would of sufficed? Lastly im not a fan of the wires going UNDER the grip tape. Youd feel that under your feet. Either route the deck and make it flush, or over the top of the bindings. Otherwise quality work!
Looks great, I'm currently doing a more budget focused build. Currently looking at the flipsky 6.6 plus is this a good option or can I go a bit cheaper? Say the flipsky 4.20 I'm planning on using two flipsky 190kv motors. Also what size peli case is that? Btw love the channel :)
I enjoyed these videos and I hope I can one day commission a build something like this because I am a heavy guy and the prebuilt will not be able to last for me.
Lee your craftsmanship is next level bro. So much care and passion goes into your board building man.
Mark HybridZ thanks Mark! I’m glad my passion is showing through! I love it!

Yeah must admit the davega isn’t my favourite, I like the mileage tracking though. Thanks man glad you enjoyed the series!
That looks so clean. Very well done, and beautifully shot. This was a great series.
Thank you Mario! Glad you enjoyed the mini series!
The *mood music* 😂😂 very apt, a lotta people who work with those machines the sound of them
Hahaha yeah bro!

Sexbolts eh? Never heard of them but I'm going to check them out right now! Thanks bro!
Great video and series board looks great
Thanks Simon! It’s fast af...
It's a beauty dude. Great work once again. Looking forward to seeing this one in action 🏂💨
Thanks Steve!
Nice very nice 👌 👍.
You should share links descriptions off the entire parts so I can start to order.
Cheers from Spain.
Great to see you building peoples dreams 👍 Im expecting to see a lot of these out mobbing next year for sure
you and me both mate! haha. Thanks Tim
Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!! I want one!!!!
hey lee i am in the process of building my own mountain board and was wonder if I should use 170 or 190 kv motors
Does it feel like 9” mud pluggers decrease maneuverability? Also, if I do a lot of riding on sidewalks and roads, do you think that they’re overkill?
100%. 9 inch tyres are not very good for general riding. They decrease torque, decrease range decrease agility and generally make the board feel more sluggish. They are great for grip, just not for anything else
Lee Wright so should I just get hard trampa treads? It seems like those have pretty decent grip
@@koenwilliams8819 the 8 inch tyres are my favorite. We also sell some nice tyres at Apex customs! Www.electricskateboarding.co.uk
Brilliant eye for detail. It's all running and sounds beefy. Are you gearing it for torque and not high speed?
Ratheon Hudson it’s 1:5 gearing so a big of both!
Preach man, my first DIY ran into so many issues. Was hoping to be riding it by now, but I won't be riding till the weekend most likely!
But, more importantly.... Gahhhhhhhh!!!! I want one of these so bad!!!
i guess it is kind of off topic but does anyone know a good place to watch newly released tv shows online?
@Royce Eliseo I watch on FlixZone. Just search on google for it =)
@Royce Eliseo lately I have been using Flixzone. Just google for it :)
Ok sorry for bugging so much but one last question. Why the preference over etoxx gear drive vs others like trampa?
Etoxx gear drive is well proven over many years - very good gear drive!
Hey lee quick question. I’m loving Yens’ vesc 6 case, but it’s over $200. Do you have any ideas or recommendations for Vesc cases that look good like Yens’?
The etoxx case is fantastic, there arent any other alternatives at the moment but we will be releasing a VESC case very very soon
Lee Wright to be completely honest, I was hoping for an answer like that. Can’t wait for awaited Apex Customs “enclosures” tab
That's an awesome board right there! Well done again. I especially loved that wooden battery box floor with the engraved name/message. That was a really nice touch that makes that board "his" board. Ever consider staining the wood? 🤙
I would have but no time and all that, needed to get it done! Thanks man, it is the little touches that make a build. Nobody will ever see that... but its there
@@LeeWright Yeah that's exactly why I really liked that touch. It's something for the owner, and makes the board really feel like his. :D Cheers mate!
Great Video 💪🏼
Want to build this with my old Mountainboard. Is there a „List of Parts“ which you used?! How much was the build?!
Awesome as always bro
garry toole thanks man!
Hy Lee.
Awesome build!👍

I was one of the people u called your number one fans 😂😂 lol love your videos specially the one you did at the dirt jumps!
Ultra Gaming BTW hey bro! Good to see you earlier! 😜✌️

Alex Henderson I have no experience with the flipsky VESC tbh but I only hear negative things. The peli is the 1200 bro. Hope that helps
I enjoyed these videos and I hope I can one day commission a build something like this because I am a heavy guy and the prebuilt will not be able to last for me.
Too bad you ran those cables under the griptape! Why didn’t you ran those through the bindings?
Great wee series man... Top content. Hope you triple-checked everything on his battery ;-)
Thanks bro, battery has about 4 cycles on it now - no issues at all.
Lmao @ that Dremel scene
14:15 hum hum 😁😆😅
Haha!
I’ve seen crazier boards on your channel, shouldn’t it at least use 80mm motors to be considered top spec?
For an electric mountainboard you have to consider weight vs power. Same for the battery!
@@LeeWright I just remember the 4wd board you made, seems like it was more top spec than this. Those etoxx hubs are so awesome.
@@RoadSurferOfficial yeah it deffo was, but it wasn’t an electric mountainboard, that’s more a street board
je regarde cette vidéo avec une bonne biere 👌👍👍✌️🤘🤟🤜
😂👌 haha, un français? vous devriez essayer le prochain avec une bonne IPA britannique! peut-être malade vous en envoyer un!
@Lee Wright merci pour l'info je vais tester une ipa de chez toi la prochaine fois ✌️
13:37 after that, I've unsubscribed
Тихон Климов hahhahaha
