Motorised skateboard: industry comparisons

The motorised skateboard market is still made up of a limited number of identifiable players, mainly from Australia, the United States and China, with few European brands assembled on the continent. This fragmentation explains why price and quality benchmarks are still hard to establish for a buyer new to the category.

Understanding who does what, and in which segment (urban, all-terrain, premium, entry-level), helps place any brand, Sternboard included, in its real context rather than in isolated sales talk.

An industry comparison answers the question: which brands exist, and where do they sit? A price comparison answers a more specific question: how much does a given configuration cost at a given brand? Both are useful, at different stages of your thinking.

This section deals with the first question. For the second, see The Stern' page and its comparison tool: motor, battery, range, climbable gradient and price of the 8 configurations.
