I thoroughly believe that electric vehicles for work and commuting are the way of the future, but there is a world of advanced technology out there that can be used for FUN! I love how this document not only shines a light on the versatility of electric skatesboards, electric unicycles, one wheels, etc but also the diversity within the community. Diversity of age, backgrounds and genders. I can only imagine how much easier life would have been if I could have zipped around my college campus on an electric skatesboard! As a prominent of electric mobility, I left this viewing proud and ready to meet up with a local group for a fun group ride through the city.
Great document with great editing! I look forward to more from Mr. Phillips.

Initially I thought this would be another doc about skateboarding but I was pleasantly surprised. This documentary not only captures the budding popularity of electric vehicles but the people who ride them. I have never seen this much diversity!!! And I mean REAL diversity...there is middle aged mom, army vets, kids... The representation was so awesome to see. This doc told the stories of the people involved in this movement the electric skateboards were just a vehicle to do it. The video editing and cinematic choices were chefs kiss! I highly recommend. This is the directors first doc so I cant wait to see what he does next.
Before watching Electric Pioneers I didn't know much about PEV riders. Electric Pioneers caught my interest from the beginning and taught me so much about the PEV rider community! It was interesting to hear the perspectives from the PEV riders' point of view. I had no idea they were considered so controversial in some areas of the country and around the world. My interest has been piqued and I'm interested to learn more about this within my city/state, especially as the PEV rider community grows. Check out Electric Pioneers and tell your friends about it, too! It's a definite must see! You won't be disappointed.
This documentary hit it out the park telling the story of electric riders. It is a community that a lot of people are not aware of. The director did an incredible job bringing to life the rider's stories and interconnected them into a tapestry of adrenaline fueled fun.
What was most compelling was the camaraderie and multiculturalism of the riders. Their stories I am sure will make viewers feel connected to the story. The director took time to pay homage to his wife and son highlighting how e-skateboarding had become a family affair. Today we hear too much about disconnected families and their love for each other and riding is compelling and uplifting.
Overall a great documentary that will inspire others to explore and even consider becoming a part of this community.

The movie was very insightful and heartfelt. It gave the viewers a peek into the lives of electronic vehicles riders. It showed the symbiotic relationship between humans and machines.
The storyline was so inspiring and innovative. The diversity of the riders showed that regardless of your race, age or gender everyone can benefit from the experience of using an electronic vehicles.
I truly believe that more people will be motivated to join the world wide movement of the electronic vehicles community after watching the movie
