Stowboard is a portable and foldable electric skateboard designed for easy storage and transportation. It is a motorized device that allows riders to commute effortlessly and conveniently within urban areas or other suitable environments.
The term "Stowboard" derives from the combination of two words: "stow" and "board." "Stow" refers to the action of packing or storing an object in a confined space to maximize efficiency and convenience. "Board" refers to a flat, rigid, and often rectangular object that provides a stable platform for standing or riding.
Stowboards typically feature a durable deck made of wood, composite materials, or carbon fiber, providing stability and shock absorption. The deck sits atop a set of durable and maneuverable wheels, usually made of polyurethane or rubber. The electric propulsion system is integrated into the deck, with a built-in battery and electric motor that provide power to move the board forward at varying speeds.
Stowboards often incorporate advanced features such as regenerative braking, which helps to recharge the battery by converting kinetic energy into electrical energy during deceleration. They may also include wireless remote controls, allowing users to control speed, acceleration, and braking with ease.
With their compact and foldable design, stowboards are highly practical for riders who need a portable and easily storable commuting option. They offer an eco-friendly alternative to traditional transportation methods, helping to reduce carbon emissions and promote sustainable modes of travel.
