Electric Skateboard San Diego: the local scene

Electric Skateboard San Diego: the local scene

San Diego is considered the birthplace of skateboarding, being home to the west coast's first skate park. What began as a way to surf when the ocean was flat became an iconic Southern California tradition. Now, electric skateboards are the new trend in San Diego.

Electric longboards are fun and easy to use, opening up a whole new world of possibilities. "I was tired of going up and down the hills by pushing and running up the hill. I just wanted something that would get me up the hill" - Socal Legend, one of Evolve ambassador, in an interview about electric skateboards in Southern California.

According to California law AB-6904, it's legal to ride an electric skateboard on roads with a speed limit under 35 mph. You need to wear a helmet and have a headlight and reflectors (which can be attached to the rider or to the board). There is also a limit speed of 15 mph.
