Overview
ACTON introduces the most advanced electric skateboards on Earth. We built BLINK from space-age materials using completely new and patent pending construction. 22 miles per charge, 4 wheel drive for hill climbing power. We're stepping up the personal transport game and need you to ride with.

ACTON BLINK has 3 new models for your everyday needs

BLINK QU4TRO - 4 wheel drive, most powerful, amazing range & conquerer of all hills. 

BLINK S2 - 2 wheel drive, commuter & cruiser, great range & effortless uphill power. Our best all around. Designed for commuters and students.

BLINK S - 1 wheel drive, commuter & cruiser, lightest weight, best campus tool & most portable vehicle. College must have. 

It's the best package out there right now. BLINK glides with advanced hub motors for a more powerful & smoother ride. The experience on these boards is next-level. Head out on the road and forget about charging because you won't have to worry about it for a while. If you ever do run out of juice, you can just kick/push BLINK because hub motors do not slow you down the way belted motors do. Signature lighting illuminates your way and makes you glow so you can stand out on the street for safety and style.

Our talented team has worked day and night over the past year to innovate and improve what ACTON fans have been asking for: super light weight, huge power, amazing range, beautiful, ground breaking design; ACTON BLINK has it all.

 

"God made Lombard Street for BLINK QU4TRO" - David (test rider & customer)

"I'm replacing my car with BLINK!" - Alex (test rider & customer)

"Great acceleration, it's a very smooth ride" - Vivian (test rider & customer)

BLINK QU4TRO is one of the fastest, most powerful boards in the market and it is the only one with 4 wheel drive electric hub motors. Hills? What are those? You'll forget in a hurry as the world starts to appear startlingly level.

YOU DONT NEED A CAR! WORLD'S LIGHTEST & MOST AFFORDABLE DUAL MOTOR eLONGBOARD

We engineered the Blink S2 to have all the best attributes of electric skateboards available today at a price that is much more accessible to the general public. The batteries and other innards are housed within a hole in the wooden deck that makes the overall package much thinner and sleeker. It is sandwiched and reinforced with an aircraft aluminum extrusion to strengthen and protect the board and its electronics. This is a highly optimized package that results in extreme light weight and powerful performance.

TWO Hub Motors For More Power and Speed

Canadian Maple Deck with Extruded Aluminum Reinforcement

Powerful & Light Weight, Portable for Your Daily Commute

A COLLEGE 'MUST HAVE'!

SUPER LIGHTWEIGHT & MOST AFFORDABLE ELECTRIC SKATEBOARD

If lightness and portability is the game, then BLINK S is the name. This is a board that is everything it needs to be and nothing it isn't. The strength of the aircraft aluminum extrusion combines with the wood deck to get a monocoque-like structure that sandwiches everything together. The board's thinness belies its power, however.

 

After more than one year of blood, sweat and hard work, we've finished development and just need $50,000 for our factory to produce a minimum order from us. We’ve put together some huge incentives and we're offering 3 different boards so it's easy to choose one that fits your lifestyle.

 

 

Risks And Challenges

Our biggest hurdles in the past have been dealing with manufacturers who do not deliver on time. To prevent any delays, we have already developed our relationship with our manufacturers and they’ve been delivering other products to us for months. So, while still a risk, our experience in this department helps us to predict if there will be a problem and immediately implement a solution. We have also divided our manufacturing up among several factories so that no one factory holds all the power in the supply chain.

More Reassurance

We have been in business for a couple of years now and have run 3 highly successful crowd funding campaigns, the last one pulling in over half a Million Dollars. We have a proven track record of delivering innovative products to our customers.

We have a couple of skateboard models out in the market already. We currently hold the title for the lightest and most compact electric skateboards you can buy. We’ve been improving these models incrementally to create the best possible board for our customer. We now have completely new boards that are the result of all of our learnings from our original Electric Skateboards.

BLINK S's battery is 80Wh & S2 battery is 160Wh which are compliant with the regulations regarding transport of the board on most passenger planes (some require under 100Wh, some under 160Wh). However, airlines have the authority to make the final call which we cannot guarantee, so we suggest calling the airline prior to travel.

We traveled with S + S2 on Delta from SFO-NYC recently, no problem at all. But again, airlines have the authority to make the final, contact the airline prior to travel.
