The Black Shot first appeared in Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity. According to its profile, it is a speed model produced by Accevice Corp, and is pared down for maximum velocity. It is unlocked in the game, alongside Shadow, by completing the Heroes Story in Story Mode.
The Black Shot's design in Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity, like most other Board types presented in the game, bears a distinct resemblance to that of a regular board in terms of shape, but thicker and smoother. It is colored dark metal grey, with white highlights running along the sides and on the front, along with an additional red stripe on the outmost front. On its rear it possesses three exhaust ports, all with red and white highlights on them, that are arranged in a triangle. It also have two foot pads on the top surface, with a black area between them.

It is also decorated with two red flames that each cover almost half of the Black Shot's upper surface, with a yellow arrow between the flames.
