A: We are not Boosted Boards. Unfortunately Boosted went bankrupt and from what we've seen older warranty claims are being ignored. Q: Then who are you guys? A: We are the guys who bought all of the remaining inventory from Boosted after they shut their doors.
Boosted was just spread too thin. It had launched half a dozen models — each with different configurations — in just six years, on a shoestring budget. Then it was hit hard by the Trump administration's tariffs on goods made in China, and a delayed electric scooter, and eventually ran out of money.
Boosted was known as the leader in premium electric skateboards, and even expanded into high-end (and high-power) electric scooters. Thus, news of the company's bankruptcy and demise came as a shock to their large customer base and to many in the industry.
But Boosted boards elevated the game. They took an old idea, made it sleek, pretty, and high quality. The control system was easy to use and, as a company, they sought to form strong bonds with their customers. But in March 2020, Boosted laid off many of its employees and sought a buyer.
The Boosted Mini S will cost $749 and ships in May, making it Boosted's cheapest board ever. The Mini X costs $999 and ships in June. Both boards have a kick tail, all-new 80mm wheels (now custom-made by Boosted), three different speed modes, and they use the same remote used on the bigger Boosted boards.

As a Boosted Plus owner, the board has fantastic power and speed. But what I love most about it is the handling… The boards ride great and the super flex deck gives you superb control.
