Accelerating
First, bend your knees and shift your weight forward
towards the board’s nose. Gently extend your thumb to
push the Thumb Throttle away from you until the motors
begin to engage. The further you roll the Thumb Throttle
forward, the faster the Riptide Electric Skateboard will go.
At any time you can release the Thumb Throttle to coast
or roll it backwards to brake.
Braking
When you are ready to brake make sure to bend your
knees and shift your weight to the rear of the deck. Gently
roll the Thumb Throttle downwards until you feel the
board’s motors begin to actively slow the board down.
For additional braking power roll the Thumb Throttle
downward at a faster rate, but be sure your stance is
prepared so you don’t lose your balance and have to step
off the board.
