An electric skateboard is capable of detecting a load applied from a rider accurately without influence from various positions of the rider on the board and without influence from various road conditions. The electric skateboard includes a board arranged to receive a load from the rider, a load detection sensor arranged to detect the load received by the board, a front wheel provided on a lower surface of the board, an arm which rotatably supports the front wheel, a first frame connected with the arm, a second frame fixed to the board, and a shaft connecting the first and second frames. The load detection sensor is sandwiched by the first and second frames. A rear wheel is provided on the lower surface of the board and has a construction that is similar to that of the front wheel.

A flexible skateboard may include a pair of direction casters mounted for steering rotation a twistable one piece skateboard. A center section may be made sufficiently narrower than outboard foot support areas which may be twisted by a rider to add energy for rolling motion to wheels in the casters. The center section may also be made sufficiently resistant to twist so that the skateboard may be ridden as a conventional, non-flexible skateboard.

The present disclosure provides a hands-free, self-balancing vehicle including a tiltable platform for a rider to stand on. The tiltable platform may tilt in any direction and direct the direction of motion of the vehicle. The vehicle is compact and may be disassembled for easy portability.
