The Metroboard X.o is the most refined edition of the original X which set a new standard of excellence and performance in eskate. The X.o is the culmination continual improvement marking the last edition to utilize our Metroboard/Flipsky controllers and remotes. Everything else has been dialed up to 11 for the most impressive Metroboard to date. More power, more range, more speed, more bright, and more tough. There’s more here than meets the eye.
The Metroboard X22 is our best performing board to date. We’ve taken all the lessons learned from the original X and made everything better.

10mm axles for higher strength and less chance of bending on impact.
Unbreakable CNC-machined 6061 aluminum trucks.
Wider, longer deck with more foot-room and a W-concave design with built-in foot-stops. With a Total Deck length of 41-inches there’s 28″ x 10″ of foot space on the dropdeck.
Integrated high-powered LED lighting. Blindingly bright. 3 settings. Controlled by the remote with the press of a button. Compare to aftermarket external lights.
Battle-hardened Flipsky 6374 140kv motors. Built to withstand more abuse than the competition.
RipTide KranK Bushings (the best bushings by far, made in Oregon) are standard. Do bushings really make that much of a difference? You bet your sweet bippy, they do.
644.76 watt-hours of delivered energy. Our 12S4P pack is made in the USA by Duck Battery Systems using Molicel 21700 P42A cells for a higher standard of quality, and the most energy density we can possibly cram inside. The delivered capacity is 15.1 amp hours at 40 amp discharge to 3.0 volts. (Nominal capacity is 16Ah / 705.6Wh.)
Onboard Battery Indicator. Know your charge at-a-glance.
4-Pin power port and 8-Amp fast-charger to guzzle up the go-go juice.
Stormcore 60D+ ESC. Connect a variety of ESC (electronic speed controller) monitoring apps to track your performance and record your rides.
The industry’s only Automatic Belt Tensioning System. Our design takes the fuss out of belt tensioning making wheel swaps easier than any other belt-driven system. Take our word for it. Skip the aneurysm.
Speaking of Belts: We think belt-driven boards are superior to other drives. Compared to gear drives, belts are easy to replace when they break. When a gear drive fails, you’re walking home (with a huge brick in tow). When a belt breaks, you’re back on the road in 5 minutes (as long you carry a spare). Even if you don’t have a spare, you can still limp home on one belt. Belts are also quieter. Hub drives (once hailed as “the future”) have proven to be unreliable owing to the persistent impacts and vibration transferred directly to the motors, and the lack of any gear ratio makes them less than ideal, especially for a convertible skateboard application. Belts are just better.
Glass-infused Nylon Gears. Our gears last thousands of miles. Other manufacturers’ gears are made of cheaper material and wear down in hundreds of miles. This is one of those hidden variables that can impact your total cost of ownership. Motor Pulley to Drive Gear Ratio: 20/72 (1:3.6)
Hoyt St Puck Remote: Built tough as iron with frequency-hopping technology for a rock-solid connection. The Puck has a reputation as the best remote on the market.
38 MPH top speed with 200mm wheels, 34mph with Street wheels or Cloudwheels. A few other boards might go faster, but with DKP trucks, the X22 is designed primarily for the carving experience. Don’t worry—you’ll still be at the head of the pack. You’ll just prefer to take a beeline to get there.
Wheels, Gears, Belts, Bushings and more. All top quality parts.
