SEE IN ACTION
2X RIDE TIME.
TRUSTED BY 100,000+ RIDERS
THE PERFECT GIFTI purchased this Hoverboard for my granddaughter and she loves it. She hopped right on it and started riding it with no problem. I was kind of shocked at how easy she made it look.
MY 8 YEAR OLD LOVES IT!Awesome Hoverboard! We ordered for my son’s 10th birthday and he absolutely LOVES it! The lights on top flash all different colors and the Bluetooth speaker sounds amazing. Came charged right out of the box so the first thing he did was jump on and roll. Very easy to use for first timer!
BEST VALUE FOR THE PRICEBought both my grand kids the X8 for Christmas and they love them! They got a different brand last year and ended up returning them away due to poor battery life. These seem much more durable and way better battery life.
FUN FOR THE WHOLE FAMILYEven though this was a little pricier than we originally wanted to spend, the extra was worth it. Durable and will last forever.
WAY BETTER QUALITY THAN WALMARTI bought it for my 10 year old and she learned how to ride it in 1 day. Now I can’t get her off! The battery lasts more than twice as long as her brothers Hoverboard from Walmart and much more durable.
GREAT FOR OUTDOOR RIDINGI purchased the X8 because of the larger wheels so my kids could ride it outdoors and not have to worry about uneven pavement. It works very well for this and highly recommended!
TOP QUALITY CONSTRUCTIONI bought the X8 Hoverboard for my son and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the quality and fast delivery. I was very skeptical after getting scammed by a different website, but with Hoverboards.com the purchase went perfect!
HEAVY DUTY, RELIABLE AND FAST!I purchased this hoverboard for my sons birthday and he loves it. He actually wanted one for a long time, however after a lot of research I wanted to make sure I got one that was safe. The X8 was the perfect gift!
CAN’T BEAT THE QUALITY & PRICEI like how quiet it is when he rides it and smooth, and it’s not messing up the floors. No complaints at this time. For the price you can’t beat it! Fast shipping and packaged well.
EASY TO CARRY.

Proudly based in USA
We ship every order for FREE from our multiple USA warehouses via UPS, ensuring fast 1-4 day delivery to your door.
Powerful Precision Built Motors (600-watt total power)
Even more impressive than a max speed of 8-10 mph, is the ability to safely travel up to 12 miles on a single charge depending on terrain & body weight!
Smoother Acceleration
Drift corners with ease! Our updated foot sensors provide the most responsive and stable riding experience. Unlike other competitor models that are very jerky and hard to ride.
We only use the safest UL certified Li-Ion battery packs that can be safely charged over 2,000 times. Our proprietary UL2272 certified battery delivers not only more power to the Hoverboard, but also features overcharge protection. The result is a more powerful, longer lasting and the safest ride! Over 95% of Hoverboards still being sold online contain first generation Chinese shrink-wrapped battery cells.

We NEVER use dangerous Chinese batteries that are known to overheat!
Depending on terrain and the weight of the rider, our Hoverboards can go as fast as 10 miles per hour. However the speed of the Hoverboard is completely controllable by the movements of the rider ensuring even at the max speed you have the smoothest and most stable ride, while easily maintaining full control.
The wheels are 8″ which is perfect for both indoor and outdoor riding on smooth surfaces. The wheels are solid rubber just like our 6.5″ X6 model, however they are slightly larger allowing it to tackle obstacles more easily while also offering a higher ground clearance.
260 lbs is the maximum rider weight. The rider should also be a minimum of 40 lbs.
Shipping is FREE! We ship all in-stock Hoverboards the sameday via UPS Ground, so delivery takes just 1-4 days depending on your location. Within 24 hours we will send you an email with the UPS tracking information. After that you will be able to track your order at UPS.com.
We accept Visa, MasterCard, and Discover. You can also pay via PayPal.
UL stands for Underwriters Laboratory. UL is a global science safety institution that inspects, tests, and issues safety certifications for different products. All of our Hoverboards have earned the UL2272 certification which is the highest safety rating given to any Hoverboard manufacturer.
