How do electric skateboards work? Believe it or not, they actually function in much the same way as the more traditional skateboards, with one big difference. You arenât propelling them yourself. Instead, you are a passenger on something that can carry you as fast as 25 miles per hour.
In skating, one skate pushes and the other skate glides--there is very little friction to slow you down. Speed skater Hiroyasu Shimizu of Japan can travel 500 meters in just 35.39 seconds, an average speed of 14.13 meters per second or 31.6 miles per hour.he friction between the blade and the ice is minimized because the surface of the ice is so slippery, and because only a small portion of the skate's blade is actually in contact. The Mechanics of Skating NHL players can reach speeds in excess of 20 miles (32 km) per hour on the ice.
