A company called Cyrusher, which has made its name for selling e-bikes, has turned its attention to snow sports and launched what it says is the world's first electric snowboard.
The 15kg board they have named "The Ripple" comes in at a 156cm length, can carry a rider weighing up to 250klb and between 5'4" and 6'4" tall and can hit speeds on the flat of up to 50 km/h (31 mph) the company says.
Cyrusher say that 'The Ripple' features a 3000-watt electric motor integrated into the snowboard with a V1 controller, "specifically designed for accurate navigation across snow and ice-covered landscapes."
The Ripple features a wide, high-traction rear tire, designed for traction on icy snow cover and can cover distances of 15-20 kilometres (9-13 miles) on a single charge.
"Equipped with a high-voltage-resistant MOSFET and an advanced heat dissipation, the controller ensures precise control and responsiveness. Easily fine-tune snowboard forward speed and manoeuvrability for the ultimate snowboarding adventure, guaranteeing a thrilling yet controlled riding experience every time," said a Cyrusher spokesperson, adding, "The advent of Ripple electric snowboards has revolutionized winter sports, offering sustainable thrills with lithium-ion battery power. The Ripple snowboards are silent and emissions-free, reducing noise pollution and promoting eco-friendly outdoor activities. The development of electric snowboards reflects a promising future for a more sustainable and exciting snowboarding experience."
