Ahh -- makes sense. I haven't played much with RCs or batteries in general and typically think of power in terms of cycling. 1.3kW sustained for a skateboard is rather impressive. I'm comfortable doing 20 minutes at ~310W on the bike (more like 1.24kW once you account for cycling being roughly 25% energy efficient) and it's enough wattage to get you moving pretty fast.
