When you first see the TLTBoard, your instinct might be to ask, “What is that thing?” It looks like part skateboard, part scooter, and part space-age explorer, and that’s the point.
The TLTBoard is a personal electric and gas-powered vehicle built for rough terrain, tight carving, and high-speed control. It fuses the stability of a traditional skateboard with the dynamic balance of a one-wheel, and behind its unique performance are a ton of custom parts made possible by SendCutSend.
Reinventing Off-Road Riding with a Three-Wheeled Tilt Board
The TLTBoard wasn’t born in a boardroom. Founder and builder, Eyal Aloni, describes a series of lightbulb moments that led to the TLTBoard: bombing down a mountain on a snowboard with no lift back up, watching early YouTube videos of the BMW Streetcarver, and realizing his first rough prototype was way more stable than expected.
That’s when he committed.
The TLTBoard combines tilt steering with dynamic balance and stability. With three wheels, rear skids, and patented steering geometry, it’s not just a rehash of what’s out there — it’s something entirely new.
“The TLTboard allows you to have both,” Eyal explains. “It’s stable when you choose to lean on all three wheels, and capable of lifting the front two when the terrain gets rough.”
Laser-Cut Performance in Record Time
Every new design is prototyped, tested, and refined in a mobile workshop, using stick welding, power tools, and trial and error. But one tool has proven essential across every phase: SendCutSend.
“I don’t have to source and store raw materials,” Eyal shared. “And SendCutSend’s parts arrive in record time, every time. It’s like magic.”
The TLTBoard uses a mix of laser-cut aluminum for the deck, skids, and mudguards, and stainless steel for the chassis, and many are powder-coated through SendCutSend, allowing for tight tolerances, reliable strength, and easy assembly.
“Using SendCutSend means our parts align themselves,” Eyal explains. “That’s critical. It makes them easier to put together, which affects the final performance and aesthetics of the board.”
How Rapid Prototyping Drives Smarter Design
Eyal began his first prototype in 2008 and has been continuously improving and designing new units ever since. Each new iteration includes anywhere from five to fifteen changes based on field testing and rider feedback. That rapid evolution wouldn’t be possible without fast prototyping and quick parts turnaround.
“SendCutSend plays a crucial role in our design and production with their quick delivery and exceptional service,” Eyal shared.
Early on, he spent months modeling a prototype that didn’t even work once assembled. That first failure taught him to flip his process: build it first, ride it, then model it. Real-world testing always wins over digital design alone.
SendCutSend supports that philosophy by making it easy to produce a single version, test it, (improve it!), and keep on building.
The Minimalist Workshop Behind a Maximalist Ride
For Eyal, the TLTBoard workshop has no room for clutter: a trailer, a welder, an angle grinder, and a collection of well-used Makita tools, which makes SendCutSend’s materials library, cutting and bending services, and part consistency even more valuable.
Eyal handles all the building himself, and his wife supports marketing, order placement, fulfillment, and shipping. Social media has also contributed to the TLTBoard gaining traction, and helped the duo connect with new customers, gather feedback, and refine the product based on real-world responses.
A dream version of the board is always in the works, and Eyal is getting closer. There’s even been a prototype with a water mist system for hot days. Because, why not?
But even as the business grows and designs evolve, the board has kept its personality: capable, bold, and maybe a little wild. If it had a rider? “Arnold Schwarzenegger,” Eyal jokes.
The results? Hundreds of boards sold, a growing community of riders Surfing the Earth, and plans to expand into mass production and custom kits for DIY builds.
Advice for Makers
Ask this creator for advice? It’s simple: build it first and test it. You’ll learn more from one ride than a hundred hours in CAD.
“You can’t feel inertia on a computer screen. You need real hands, real feet, and a real hill. Testing is the difference between R&D and just plain manufacturing,” Eyal added. “Making it better and better is essential.”
He also urges builders to think about safety, not just performance. Structural failures have to be considered in the iterative process, especially at speed and off-road. Every element of the TLTBoard is designed with yield strength, vibration, and fatigue in mind.
Bring Your Dream Build to Life
Whether you’re designing a mobility solution or a machine built just for fun, SendCutSend makes it possible to prototype efficiently, test fast, and scale smarter, without the hassle of a shop filled with raw materials and expensive equipment.
TLTBoard’s story proves that big ideas don’t need big factories — just vision, persistence, and the right parts, delivered fast.
