saw this on FB,
maybe they are finally bringing this to market.
If you don't know about Groundsurf, they had this two eboards way back in 2007 (maybe earlier)
The first one had 3 wheels and later there was a 4 wheel version.
The 4 wheel version have 4 individual hub motors and a unique skate truck using a single spring and car like steering with possible leaning wheels.
I believe they were trying speed control through either a Bluetooth enabled cell phone or by weight sensing.

Welcome to all SuperFast-Skaters !
The SuperFast-Skate has four wheels drive and ride (one 1500W to 4000W out-running cage electrical motor in each wheel), it can reach up to 130Km/H, it’s designed for downhill/uphill and velodromes races.
Let us know you thoughts and ideas to help us promote SuperFast-Skate.
Would you ride an electrical monotype board where all riders compete against each other with the same board ?
Would you like to compete in teams ?
We believe pro-riders who have sponsor(s) could get them also involved in this new type of competition.
The idea is to have several SuperFast-Skate teams sponsored by different brands to compete against each other. Either individual or in teams.
We wish the brands could design the board with their colors and logos instead of promoting our brand. Our goal is to provide the technology and build the greatest teams.
