VOYAGER BOARD24TLS-BLK Tail Spin Electric Skateboard
CAUTION
As with any skateboard, whenever you ride your Tail Spin you may risk death or serious injury from loss of control, collision or falls. All riders should read, understand and take heed of the instructions in the user guide when riding.
BEFORE YOU RIDE
- Before use, perform a quick visual check to verify that the skateboard is in good shape and that your equipment is not damaged.
- Make sure the battery is fully charged before your first use. The battery will take approximately 3 hours to charge to full from empty.
- Ensure that you have appropriate safety gear. You must always wear a helmet when riding, but we also recommend elbow and knee pads, especially for less experienced riders.
- Find a safe environment to use the electric skateboard. When you are starting, we recommend a flat or mostly flat surface to get acquainted with your Tail Spin and its controls. We do not recommend using your skateboard in the rain or other wet conditions as it is unsafe and may cause damage to the board.
- Check the motor settings, and make sure the drive mode is set to forward before you take off!
PLEASE NOTE
- Improper operation may cause overheating or serious injury.
- Do not tamper with the battery or any of the wiring or attempt to modify the board.
- Please only use official Voyager parts on your board. Other parts are not guaranteed to work and will void your warranty.
- Do not use the board if it is damaged, has been soaked with water or liquid, or if the battery pack has been damaged.
- Do not charge the board in abnormally hot, cold or wet conditions, like rain or direct sunlight. Charge in a shaded and dry location outside and away from any kind of combustible fuels
- Do not touch the surface of the motor or rear truck after use as the motor can get hot.
WARNING
- Risk of Fire – No User Serviceable Parts

GET MOVING
- Power up the unit by pressing the power button on the bottom of the board and check that everything is running smoothly
- Engage the brake by pressing downwards on the throttle wheel. This will make it easier to stand on the board initially.
- Step onto the board and find your balance. You should put the foot that you kick with on the rear of the board and your other foot on the front. If your right foot is forward, and your left foot is back, this is called riding “goofy.”
- Once you’re on the board and have your balance, gently push up on the throttle control on the remote.
- The more you push up on the throttle, the faster you will travel.
- Pushing downward on the throttle control will engage the brakes.
- Practice going forward slowly until you feel comfortable, then try turning by shifting your weight forward and backward.
- We suggest learning with a friend initially so that you have support and someone to stabilize you in case you start to fall.
- Ride at a comfortable pace, until you have some experience using the electric skateboard.
- Keep practicing and you’ll get the hang of it in no time.
- Note: See page 4 for labelled diagrams of the remote and its functions.
