Hopping on a hoverboard for the first time and taking off at top speed will likely end up more embarrassing and painful than impressive and thrilling.The range is the distance or run-time of the hoverboard, and it’s important because a shorter range means more frequent charging. While range may not matter for all riders, if you plan to commute, this should be a key consideration, says Mast.
