MARKET

How do you see the market for electric skateboards developing, internationally and in Europe?
Every since Mellow has started in 2017 the market has grown so much. From exciting DIY projects to Asian brands and high technology like Boosted or ourselves, it has become a wide field where every skater or non-skater finds his ride.

Who do you see as the main audience for electric skateboards?
From our experience there is no main audience for electric skateboards. Our customers are students, stay at home dads or academics. We feel that electric skateboarding brings together all sorts of people.
