Here is a small video of my board in action

I love my ES-600, it is a really good board, it is very easy to use, and has some really good features, it can go from 0 to 25 mph in 0.4 seconds, and it is controlled by the bluetooth egg controller, on the actual remote itself, there are four buttons, the first button is the increase speed button, the second button is the speed decrease button, the third button is for the reverse function button, this can be useful for not only going backwards, but if you are slipping going up a hill, turn the board around and use the reverse function, you will get up the hill, the fourth and final button is the brake button, it is just like an ABS, system, a kind of degenerative braking system, very effective, when used or applied coming down a big hill.

I really enjoy riding this board it is very nippy for a board, and get a lot of attention from people that see me flying by and they always asks questions.

At present I ride the board from Gipton to Swarcliffe, with no problems, I have been as far as Middleton and back. Though I have not gone the whole 25mile radius. One day I might.
