Written by the company

Black Hawk Electric was founded by two brothers on the Gold Coast (Australia) in 2016 following on from the success of an electric bike company that is still thriving to date as the leader in electric bike conversion kits in Australia and abroad. This experience in the electric vehicle/recreational vehicle industry extends across a decade having sold 10,000+ electric bikes and electric bike conversion kits around the world. The knowledge gained during this journey has formed a truly unique basis from which Black Hawk Electric has developed its core products. Reliability and safety are at the forefront of our product development. Staying ahead of the game by utilizing the latest in proven electric vehicle technology results in exciting, fun products that are a pleasure to own. Recent improvements in hub motor technology (taken mostly from the e-bike industry) together with improved lithium battery technology has really created a golden moment in the space as we seek to take advantage of these improvements by implementing them into our electric skateboards. Our mission is to offer the best products on the market, at wholesale prices and with excellent warranty support from people who care about the products and most importantly, our customers.

Bought my board (and boards for 2…

Bought my board (and boards for 2 friends) in 2023/2024.

After a month or two, my battery died. Wouldn’t charge or turn on. Was like it was disconnected. Emailed - they sent me a new battery. I replaced it. Happy.

Rode the board 2 or 3 times over 6-12 months, happened again. They sent me another battery. I replaced it.

About a week or two later, one motor was cutting in and out, almost throwing me off the board. Wrapped it up and sent it back. They replaced the motor. Happy.

Another 3-6 months later, the 18ish month old battery has died again. Emailed, after starting to doubt the quality of these boards. Have been told by Steve I have to buy another battery $300 + postage. There is either a significant problem with these batteries or the chargers or both. I’m not happy. Steve’s referred me to some owners manual that apparently stipulates they need to be ridden and charged monthly which I’ve never heard of. Sounds like a cover up for a basic “dumb” charger that just keeps forcing current into a battery till it trips.

Terrible quality, Chinese boards (you can buy these on AliExpress for $350/$400, just with no “Blackhawk” logo.

Disappointed. Do not buy.

I have 3 Black Hawk Eboards the V3…

I have 3 Black Hawk Eboards the V3 Urban and V3 Street plus V3 Pro the Urban even though it's not meant for hills it still manages my local hills with a bit of pumping. The other 2 have power in spades. What I really like about these boards is the availability of spare parts any the excellent service that comes with them. The vicious expansion grooves on our bike track destroyed the battery in my Urban and they replaced it with full instructions how to fit it. Now I use my boards on the road which is much smoother and I also fitted a softer riser and wheels except for the drive wheel only on the Urban but the other 2 are standard and I have had no trouble, but I only use them on the road. But what really amazes me is that I can buy new batteries, a lot of PEVs you can't which is a huge plus because I use my boards a lot. Thank you Guys for such great service and backup. Kelsey.

Unsatisfied customer

Do not buy this brand, terrible product. Had board less than 6 months before it stopped working. Had to pay for board to be shipped back to supplier for a non refundable fee to discover fault. Battery needed replacement $250 plus bought another new control. Had board arrive back working and after one ride failed with same problem as before. Don’t know what to do, can’t afford to send back again. Has anyone else had this experience. Company will only communicate by email. Really bad experience.

I currently own three Black Hawk Electric skateboards and have worn out plenty of parts over the last three years, meaning I have had a lot of contact with their fantastic support team.
Troubleshooting issues with this team is thorough, and the way they conduct business is always very professional. I have no problems recommending this company to anyone that values good old fashioned customer service and quality aftersales support.

AT series V3

Great product delivered in a quick timeframe. The AT series V3 is a powerful and easy to use skateboard that represents great value for money. Simple to adjust acceleration and breaking settings with a compact remote. Smooth riding over bumps and fun for the whole family.

Was super impressed with this company & product

Was super impressed with this company & product. Delivery was received within 3 days of ordering, which is rare these days especially on larger items.
I brough the Street Series V3 × 1. It is really exiting and fun, it was a easy to set up and learn to use. The board is durable and rides well. It's also very easy to charge and has a good life battery. I am extremely happy with my purchase. Will be recommending to everyone I know and highly recommend buying it from Black Hawk Electric!!

Brilliant birthday present

I purchased this for my son and he absolutely loves it. The purchasing process was super easy, the videos showing the different models made it a breeze to check which model to get him. There was every bit of information you needed to make an informed decision.

In terms of useability, the young fella reckons it's brilliant fun to cruise around on with mates and it's great as a commuter around the local area.

The only problem we've found so far is keeping his brothers off it.
