VIRO Rides Turn Style Electric Drift Board Electronic Skateboard with Hand Speed Controls & Drift Plate Technology

Got this for a great deal. Well, that was the idea until my little boy was disappointed on his birthday by a cool looking but also non-functioning driftboard. Either the electronics or the battery is a complete dud. Amazon did a great job of working with us to make the fixes needed, even sending the tools to open a somewhat complicated battery case and allowing a return when those fixes didn’t help.Pros: Nice decals, solid looking. Has a nice wow effect.Cons: You’re taking a gamble buying this one. Spend more on a better brand.

I love this board. It can be had at the most extremely modest price for an electric rider on the entire web, and if you can be patient enough to find out how get it cranking the first time, which can easily be done by removing the screws; disconnecting, and reconnecting the battery. This gives it a fresh connection and allows the stagnant batteries life to charge again. They must have been left on a shelf for a long time.It goes about 10 mph, about 12 with kick help, and about 6 and a half miles between charges. If the drift feature is not your thing, you can lock it in place and use it as a regular e-board. I took off the grip tape to give it a more refined, classic look.

This board is horrible. It never turn on when I got it and it only charged after I manually start the battery. It broke ever so easily, due to the remote disconnecting and connecting again making it very unsafe.

We just had the same experience other people wrote about on here. I hope you are smarter than we were and are reading this review before making the purchase. Unfortunately I didn't see other peoples reviews until after. Our experience went like this.Ordered the board, received it, unboxed it, charged it for 4 hours, and unit wouldn't turn on. after messing with it quite a bit, determined we must've received a defective unit or something. Amazon graciously had us a replacement in just over 24 hours.Unboxed the replacement, plugged it in for 4 hours...and IT ALSO wouldn't turn on! Both times I thought it was weird that the charger light stayed green the whole time it was plugged in, never gave any indication of it charging or anything. Started doing some research and sure enough, several people had the same experience, not once, but twice even, just like we did. I did see where someone took it apart and claims to have "woke" the battery and got it to work. That just doesn't make sense to need to be done, and unfortunately, they don't make it exactly easy to get to the battery. Didn't want to risk damaging the board while trying to take it apart and then maybe not be eligible for a refund. Just returned the second one as well and will get a whole different product. Hope we were able to save you from making a big mistake with this purchase.

Had to take it apart just to find out internal was unplugged and wouldnt allow it to charge the motorized wheel wasnt in all the way on all the boards the price your selling these for is way to steep and it needs to be sold for nothing more than 40 bucks the price your asking now is for a board that can go faster than 10 miles an hour drop the price most the boards being sold are not safe or dont work cheap material. Also the deck tape needs to come not on board so all bolts can be tightened attempts to take deck tape off it tares

Nice skateboard. Got it for my daughter. She just didn't want it.

The battery and the controller would not sync. The battery would not charge. I had to pay for the postage to return the item directly to the company. It cost me $41 to return and it has been a month and I have not been refunded my money for the board or the postage yet. Highly unhappy with the product and the customer service.

Don't expect a smooth ride! It has a hard time going over any surface that is not smooth. A bit noisy compared to other skates. But i guess i get what i paid for.
