WowGo Board Story - WOWGO BOARD

WOWGO was founded in August 2017 by two young entrepreneurs, Jason and Aiden. At the time, they were just two college graduates, working stable jobs, but lacking the passion for their careers that they desired. That all changed one day, when they stumbled upon a young man riding an electric skateboard. The look of pure joy on his face is an image Jason and Aiden will never forget, and it’s one that inspired them to take a step back, and reassess their goals and priorities. It was then, that they realized that life is about more than just working and getting through the day, it’s about enjoying each moment to the fullest. They wanted to somehow ignite joy, passion, and youthfulness in other peoples’ lives, the same way that the young skateboarder ignited theirs. The Result?... WOWGO.


Jason and Aiden started WOWGO from the living room of a shared apartment in crowded Shenzhen. From studying the mechanics of a skateboard, to polishing their first electric prototype, to the hours spent test riding, they worked tirelessly fine tuning their craft. After months of hard work, the first WOWGO board was completed on September 28th, 2017. The name itself came to be as Jason and Aiden wanted a way to remind e-skaters to look out for surprises as they ride, but also to continue on their journeys.


WOWGO boards are designed with some of the highest quality components on the market. We utilize batteries from Samsung, Panasonic, and Sanyo, high quality 90mm diameter hub-motors, dual drive splash-proof sinusoidal chipboards, and premium Zealous bearings. Each component is a clear reflection of WOWGO’s deep commitment to excellence in both quality and design.


Due to WOWGO’s overwhelming popularity, our company is quickly expanding, however, our original vision and attention to detail remain the same. WOWGO’s mission will always be “to bring joy, passion, and youthfulness into peoples’ lives through the most affordable high-quality electric skateboards on the market.” And there’s no greater satisfaction than knowing our products are built to keep you happy for years to come!

    Hi, I have had your board for around 8 months now and love it, however, I cannot ride it anymore due to screws falling out. The screws on one of the back hub motors that hold the wheel in place have fallen out so there is only one left, and that one keeps falling out because of the vibrations when riding it. I can’t find only the screws for sale anywhere on the website… could somebody help me find a way to get these replacement screws?

    Sincerely,

    Mitch Kaplan

    Hi WowGo Team,

    I am interested in your new All Terrain board and have a few questions:

    the board will be shipped with the new rear truck?

    shipment time to Germany?

    any tax or import duties on top of the asked price?

    in case of technical issues, any service in Germany / Europe?

    possibility to change batteries during the ride (to extend range)?

    Tank you for your swift reply

    Martin
