ACTON R5 Rocket Skates Bundle, Blue

Love these a bit difficult to start off with but once you figure them out they are fun

I bought this product last year as a gift and did not open it until a few months later, past the normal return date. I expected the product to be sold new as nothing indicated the product was refurbished. The product was clearly not new. The back wheel has clearly been used as seen in the photo and the plastic in the front has been scratched. The front wheels were pristine however so I could tell those have been replaced. I wouldn't mind this normally as it was such a good discount however the skates also came with dead batteries. On a full charge, leaving it on all night and with the indicator light green, it had no power when I tested it and went slower than walking speed on pro and normal mode, I weigh 130 lbs. It lasted about five minutes and stopped.This was obviously a returned product, for which the rubber tires were replaced, no other checks run, and the company resold as new. The product is unusable with a dead battery, I paid $120 (a good discount) for a hunk of useless metal and plastic.The skates might be cool, they certainly seem cool, but Acton is a scum company I would not deal with again.

im aparently too fat to use these, anyone over 160lbs give this a miss, i read a review stating it had a weight limit of 250lbs (i guess i was way off!). i weigh about 210lbs and these wont move me unless i sit on a skateboard. That being said, let a bunch of other people try them and these are not as easy as it looks in the video, probably takes some pratice. If you are 15 these would be neat, any older , not so much.

Excellent product that is highly recommended!

Initially these were pretty slow. But by using my superior brainpower I was able to soup them up. Soon I will catch that pesky road runner.- Wyle E. Coyote,Super Genius
