Review on ๐ŸŽ’ GoRide Electric Skateboard or Regular Skateboard Longboard Backpack Bag Carrier - Efficient Storage for School, Work, or College Tech (Black) by Tony Doolittle

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A backpack that can hold everything!

I currently own a GoRide Pro electronic board that can reach a whopping 20 mph. After a while since owning an electric skateboard I've come to realize that while commuting is a lot more fun and faster, there are times when I have to carry it around. From boarding and alighting at the train station, in shops and restaurants to riding the escalator, elevator or stairs - having your hands free at the same time brings much more convenience. I no longer have to fiddle with my bags, wallet, money or cell phone. It has made commuting a lot easier with the ability to stow the skateboard in the front and also ensure it's always with me so no one can steal it. I used to carry a separate backpack for my laptop and lunch boxes, but now I have the option to stash a GoRide Pro electronics board as well. The backpack itself is very large. I can easily stow my 14-inch Lenovo laptop with extra space, a couple of lunch boxes, headphones, power cords, a set of gym clothes, and my mirrorless camera along with a water bottle or collapsible umbrella that fits either side of the backpack, and I have an extra room! (see photo) The top section is great for storing my phone, wallet and headphones for easier access. Extra-long zippered pockets store a small tripod or selfie stick. The open side pockets make it easy to stow and secure a water bottle or umbrella. I was a little concerned that the extra weight would make the backpack uncomfortable to carry, but with a chest strap and waist strap, that concern is gone. In terms of securing the board, the velcro padded center flap really helps prevent the board from falling out and the dual straps keep the board securely in place. There are also two small shields on the bottom to support the board. Although this backpack is designed for GoRide electronic boards, the design of the straps allows for a more versatile fit, so if you have a different type of board it will likely fit. I have to admit that there are a lot of straps, but they are only necessary if your board is heavy enough. If you have a lighter board, you don't need to use all the straps. All in all, this is a must for anyone with a board of any kind, especially passengers!
