Rocketskates our electric escapes we want to make it so that you become your transportation and so ultimately what we’re shooting for is something that you can wear all day and never take off you can wear pretty much any shoe with the skates you can turn on either one first
It doesn’t really matter which what’s there on then you press your control skate down into the ground as a kind of safety once you roll the motors kick in at somewhere around one or two miles an hour we have hub motors one in each of the larger wheels on the backs we have
Lithium ion batteries and those give the motors power they have bluetooth on them so they connect to your phone and we have an app that allows you to control the performance watch what your friends are doing the skates are very inspired by automotive sources the launches Stratos from long ago these wheels are
Designed with that car in mind the last Kickstarter we did we asked for I think it was 50,000 and we ended up with 550 which was just outrageous we’ve sold a little over a thousand skates so far and the prices range from 500 to 700
Dollars it just takes a long time to get to a product that people can actually use you can just let them go and they can take off with it
