Hey everyone, since this video my controller died and was replaced by evolve. The new controller worked great for a few weeks however now it is having a connection issue that seems to be very common. Even when connected the motors will only move a fraction of an inch and the board is bricked. I will keep you all posted if this gets resolved.

[@BigCountry2001]

Talon Sei I checked out the link for the board, and Amazon said the board was out of stock and might not be restocked, I hope it restocks

[@garypleasant3116]

Bro, the motor moving slowly might be because the gas and brake need to be calibrated. It can be found on evolve riders site. I would help you but I don’t really want to put my email address on here. Good luck buddy.

[@TalonSei]

It's not the calibration. It's giving a motor error

[@garypleasant3116]

Talon Sei yea, sorry I just got to the end of your video. Good job on the review. The information given is on point.

[@campbellj1979]

Talon Sei , any updates on this issue? I just placed an order for a bamboo gtx a couple days ago, but now considering to cancel it due to so many issues. Especially after reading this. Do you have any suggestions for a different board with the same speed and range? Keep up the great reviews!!

[@BlaneLyon]

I love love love the Evolve GTX all terrain board because it makes me want to live and it is saving my life! I grew up skateboarding downhill in San Francisco. My whole life I dreamed of an invention like the Evolve skateboards and your company has made those dreams a reality. I was diagnosed 1.5 years ago with stage 4 vocal chord cancer. This has been really hard and left me completely unable to speak and very depressed. I decided I had to bring the most joyful thing I could think of into my life as therapy, and that is skateboarding in nature. My friend has been loaning me his evolve board (I have not been able to afford one yet due to massive medical expenses I am struggling to pay). This board has brought so much fun and adventure back into my life that I feel it healing me every time I ride. I can feel it strengthening my body spirit. It fills my life with joy and childlike freedom. I feel that riding your boards is a key component in saving my life! Bless you for creating these most awesome of boards. When I ride the evolve board I feel like a mighty stag galloping through the forest. I feel like a soaring eagle flying through the mountains. You are helping humanity into a more positive future of fun and non toxic transport. I thank you for all your company is doing and I pray one day to own my own Evolve GTX all terrain skateboard. Dreams do come true!

[@chunkeymunkey749]

Did you get an evolve board

[@supernice6599]

Hey I see its a year ago you were active here. Are you still alive? Hope all is well with you. I just read your comment. And it was such a great comment. Amazing how positive spirit you have. Living in a such super serious situation. Just God Bless you and hope you get rid of that cancer!!!!

[@sharky1854]

hope everything is going well with you if you didn't know there are other brands off boards who are way more affordable evolve is overpriced but i understand the feeling rideing on a eskate feels so freeing and fun. hope everything is good with you and succes with all your struggles stay strong

[@patrickconnors8403]

That's a monster of a board and looks very stable.

[@temporarymomentary]

Bullshit! The updated​ R2 v2 controller is fantastic. Stop spreading lies.

[@sparta7660]

Black Phillip , no. Is still trash. Evolve still has the disconnecting issue. Not cool. Nice board but just reliable.

[@PWalden762]

I thought electric skateboards were kinda lame at first but they're getting better, this looks pretty slick! Those big outrunners are sick looking.

[@TalonSei]

And they are only going to keep getting better!

[@pressurecracks1234]

These electric skateboard videos you’ve done are some of my favorite work of yours. I really appreciate how thorough you are in testing these things, and you’re excellent at conveying that information to us. Hopefully there’s more of them to come 🤞 I’m fascinated by electric skateboards and really want to buy one for myself someday. Doesn’t look like it will be anytime soon unfortunately because of the prices of them, so this is a cool way for me to kind of live vicariously through you, as dorky as that might sound. Keep up the great work, bro. Long live the channel.

[@TalonSei]

Thanks Brandon! I'll get a hold of some cheaper options soon 👍🏻

[@pressurecracks1234]

Talon Sei looking forward to it! Keep up the great content 👊

[@pdubsouthwest]

This is the best evolve board review. It made me buy one a few years ago.Please do another on the newer v2 boards.

[@ebarnard23]

I'm sooo stoked I found your vid. Been looking for awhile on getting a board that best soot's my needs. I purchased the GTX Bamboo 2n1 today by calling Evovle directly and Coleen was very helpful. I'm driving to Carlsbad and picking up directly from Evolve tomorrow morning, saves a little on shipping! I'm excited and scared to see how this board performs, I'm sure it will not disappoint! Thanks Bra!

[@TalonSei]

Enjoy it man! Let em know you saw this video 👊🏻👊🏻

[@ebarnard23]

For Sure!

[@Shahe007]

Earl Barnard Hi Earl. I’m on the same boat as you. I’m ready to buy a Bamboo Gtx. How is it so far? Keep hearing a lot of issues with it. But I want to hear your opinion on it as well. Cheers

[@loganplatt]

appreciate the wide variety of content

[@TalonSei]

Thanks homie 👊🏻

[@firehawkcolorado2619]

Great video, thanks for taking the time to evaluate this board. You gave me some thoughts on what I’m looking for, thanks again...

[@estevancontreras9717]

Hey Talon, helmets are nice.

[@VitinhoXXL]

This is the best review of the evolve gtx thst i’ve seen (and i’ve seen them all)!! Keep the good work men!

[@mariomalloc8919]

Best GT review on youtube. Thanks mate!

[@thetrioproduction398]

Your sneakers perfectly fit with the board design

[@ricksmith4405]

Thanks for all your videos man I'm about 8 months to a year away from purchasing my first board money is a little tight. I've been skating pretty much all my life I use my longboard now to get to and from work I think I'm ready for an eboard.... I haven't been this excited since the birth of my son LOL . Once again thanks and love your videos and all that you guys do !!

[@NAUTILYFE]

you're the man. love the varied content on the channel. everything from gadgets to guns and booze - what's not to love! Keep it up!

[@TalonSei]

Thanks Alex! 👊🏻

[@watts68au]

Ever consider Enertion Raptor 2 is an Australian Competitor to Evolve now that they are both based in Queensland Australia . Totally different setup both aggressive in nature .

[@josh9455]

Great review and speaks volumes the fact you bought it straight up. Keepin it brother!

[@jeffufcfanaticrosenberg]

I just got the exact same board and man the ride is just incredible with the 175mm wheels .the only thing is the remote like I said it I have the V-1 remote I need to go up to the V-2 but the ride is friggin like awesome. I've never been on a skateboard with such a smooth ride it's like being in a Cadillac. Like he said the deck is concave which is really nice and helps to keep your feet planted

[@kimmossige263]

Tempted to buy the GTX board. Been a customer since the very first Gen1.. I must say I do like the controller of Gen2. I can understand why others may not like it, but I do like the shorter curve range.. But then again, I'm a power user.

[@emb3rzzz]

That looks like so much fun

[@palsowen6112]

It's boring

[@modestcody123]

Excellent as always. Might grab one of these because of you.

[@christinawog1889]

Modest Code me too

[@EBROSE98]

Modest Code same

[@ketonic1084]

Until you see the pricetag 😂 but deffenitly worth the money. The smiles per dollar factor is really hight on this board

[@therealrene1]

I'm not a skateboarder, but holy crap, this thing makes me wanna take up skateboarding! That controller is cool

[@markg4296]

I hope they gave that board to you since your review will generate sales. Thanks.

[@TalonSei]

I wish, but I paid for it. I'm not affiliated with evolve at all I just love the board.

[@HKilla90]

Love the videos man. Always teaching us something new. Can’t wait to get my first electric board

[@jonathanmoncivaiz9178]

Haven’t skated in years lol but yeah I like all of your content it’s nice to see these new machines changing something that was so simple

[@stephencarren6269]

Talon love your videos and the board is sick I’m looking at getting one my self I’ve been watching you since day 1 and like the other people said I stop whatever I’m doing just to watch your videos! Keep up the good work

[@TalonSei]

Thanks for the support Stephen 👊🏻

[@dalebertyman]

I was just ripping one in Newport last night, so much fun, great video.

[@frankthehippie]

Ever since you dropped that Lou board vid I've been searching for the perfect board. Might still go w the Lou

[@kifter4254]

A proper review. Thanks talon

[@TalonSei]

Thanks for watching Kifter 🤘🏻

[@kifter4254]

@@TalonSei np man. I just have a question. Are the evolve boards still having problems with voltage sag and connection issues?

[@TalonSei]

I don't know enough about it to give you a solid answer. I haven't been riding mine enough to notice.

[@kifter4254]

Talon Sei np thanks. I really want you to review the predator banshee. I just got into E boards and your reviews are the best. In depth and on point.

[@JuveTherapy]

Great video! the best review of an electric skateboard Ive seen. Thank you for this!

[@marcosmisiecmassena7626]

By FAR the best reviewer EVER! Thanks

[@robinjones159]

That looks so fun! I wish I was young enough to have one. Great review!

[@90whatever]

I’m 50 and I’ve been riding these for about 3 yrs...plan on doing so for years more. If you’re not in shape (especially quads and core) this is a great excuse to do so...lots of fun.

[@jha123un]

this review is so damn good wow. super in-depth, thanks so much Talon!

[@TalonSei]

Welcome! Thanks for watching 👊🏻

[@AlexGomez-mr9ps]

Getting my Husband one for his Bday. . I've Been looking at reviews on the Evolve board and I really liked your review. . Great job Had to subscribe

[@TalonSei]

Thanks Anna! Welcome to the channel 👊🏻

[@jcox2270]

You could review a damn cup coaster and I’d still crank the volume interrupting whatever anyone is doing around me. Cheers

[@TalonSei]

hahaha my man! thanks for the support brotha!

[@waterboy1628]

Please do a review of a cup coaster.

[@kds8709]

9:50 when your braking it sounds like yoshi xD

[@treysvideoart]

I just received my Evolve GTX 2 days ago. It came with the old remote. I emailed Evolve for a new one. Hope I get it. The old remote doesn't feel safe.

[@badamson10]

Sweet board. I'm old. I won't be riding it, but it looks like a lot of fun!

[@boysandtheirtoys1094]

Great video man. If you get the AT show us how it handles different terrain. One of the best things about that board is it's AT capability so since you already spent the money you mine as well spend the little extra for the AT wheels and do a video on that lol

[@MACKHAWKSS]

You actually have my dream job. Keep on it tal

[@TalonSei]

🤘🏻😎👊🏻

[@mrmemknock2252]

Great review that board looks like a beast and fun as hell to ride

[@matthews9702]

Great review! Looks like an awesome board. Still can't believe they added a gt mode on a board. Makes me think it's a race mode for some futuristic skateboard roller Durby !

[@personaldronerepair6141]

Great video ! Great info , straight to the point . Audio selection is awesomely refreshing . Audio level is perfect . I swear to god if I here one more KZbin video with an electronic cat being tossed into a microwave , I will gouge out my eardrums with a toothpick . Slowly .

[@thibautpira5885]

Discovering your channel Talon Sei, really enjoying it. Cool vibe in South beach! Keep it up man!

[@randyellis6370]

Sick! I really need to get an electric board!

[@TalonSei]

If you wanna go all out, this is the best option!

[@davidwester6144]

Awesome board!! Superior presentation!!

[@davidwester6144]

A must have in Miami!

[@justingarnick6021]

Love your content Talon. If I already don’t like it. I do when ur done talking about it. Keep it up man.

[@TalonSei]

Thanks Justin 👊🏻

[@bryan_l_a]

Before I ordered my GTX I’ve probably watched this video like 5 times I still end up rewatching it😂

[@kennysaunders87]

BroSkiWrld999 lol get a onewheel. Way better.

[@Ezduztube]

I had the Bamboo Gt and was riding it in a smooth parking lot. I was hitting about 18 mph. My remote was losing connection with the board. I hit the trigger back to stop and board was still going. I guess the board got a delayed stop response. I flew off the board because the board stopped. Landed hard on the ground and broke my elbow. The remote was a bad design and I think it a 2.4 Ghz. I sold the board and never road a eboard again.

[@Ryandean1]

Just ordered this board, thanks for the review

[@dman1848]

Nothing beats flying past congested traffic lol

[@bestmillimeter1858]

Does it take Sig mags?

[@Schumanized]

You should be the official rewier of everything!!

[@JBCTR]

This is a great review. Thanks!

[@zachwellman9152]

Get at wheels they make the board so much more versatile also great vid

[@Braxtongiles]

All of those bumps and cracks make me nervous lol. also the reason why I wouldn't ride one around where I live because the roads are garbage. Could you get the A/T wheels and do a quick video on those ?

[@Braxtongiles]

MUCKFOOT Yeah I’d rock the AT wheels all the time too. I feel that they would be a smoother ride too.

[@isaks3243]

this might actually be the board i will be going for. i need the range to get to town (12km one way or 7.5 miles) so i need to get to town and back again. there is two boards that can handle what i want and need from an electric skateboard and that is all the evolve boards and the action blink qu4tro. this one is both cheaper, has longer range, is lighter and to me looks way better. i just have to save up to get one of these

[@stjepko037]

Just orderd one tnx for the review it helped me out with the decision

[@Oneffunes]

Demetrius: you have a very good vocabulary.

[@billarroo1]

Flying off the board at 26mph would feel like superman till u hit the pavement 😆

[@MrEdbamf22]

Great video. Im jealous of the night time rides

[@alexanderbillingsley3230]

You need to get another batch of shirts done...that one is fire man

[@shorty235z]

Waiting for an electric skateboard that can go atleast 36 mph and 30 mile range. That's my ideal board right there.

[@ricklulu3572]

Evolve needs to do hub motors. I sold mine because of the problems of the belt drive. My new all terrain hub motor is so quiet and efficient. Too bad they dont know how to build their own motors.

[@vernonhowell4485]

Great video! Very through! I will probably get one based on this review! Thanks!

[@TT-xo3wj]

I'm so depressed ,been wanting a board for AGES but I'm in the AU 😂😂😂 and I just found out it's prohibited. EVEN THO WE SELL IT wth. So I'm out here living vicariously through you 😭

[@YerGFsezIMhot]

remember there's a huge difference between what is 100% legal, and what "illegal" activities are actually enforced. I know heaps of people here with eboards, and i know heaps of cops....there is no problem with them provided you're not a wanker riding in the middle of the street with traffic or causing problems with pedestrians. if you're doing your own thing keeping to yourself and respecting those around you, there isn't a cop in this country that would enforce any of the rules with this....

[@nomadicfenceman509]

Steel wheels on a 2x6 was state of the art late 60s

[@acorea44]

I want that board soooooo bad!!! Great review!!

[@TalonSei]

Thanks Ariel!

[@MegaLivingIt]

It looks nice and stable.

[@JoeRock1Take]

That's the exact board I want. Thanks for making this video. Excellent video. Best review of this board on KZbin. As far as I can tell this board has way more pro's than cons for me. So I'm excited about the decision I have made. QUESTIONS 1) Regarding kick-pushing, is there any difference in resistance when the board is turned off as opposed to when you have it on but your not using the controller? 2) Without being able to fly with this board, I'm curious to know which option would be better; pull the battery out and ship it to your destination, then put it back in when you and your board arrive. Or just buy another battery at your destination and leave your old battery at home? I live in Melbourne, Australia but would love to take a board like this to places like Florida, NYC and LA, to name a few. It's such a great way to see the world. Better than looking from behind a glass on a tour bus that's for sure.

[@TalonSei]

The board pushes the same wether on or off. Best bet for traveling would probably be shipping it. Hard to say tho as I have not traveled with this board and do not plan on it. Thanks for watching! 👊🏻

[@masonschwartz8200]

Dame man that bored is awesome. I need to get an electric bored

[@purplecircle7413]

Wow that board is mildly terrifying

[@dylanstclaire9186]

Dope , the electric boards seem pretty sweet def. Gonna have to check one out grew up skateboarding but nothing like this.

[@TalonSei]

Same here, and these boards got me back into it. Its a whole new world!

[@dylanstclaire9186]

I bet would be perfect for short commutes. Love the channel man, keep it , went back and caught up on all the stuff and things episodes , love the Sunday gundays, own a glock and sig. Love qvo tatical!!.

[@Snatchemup532]

I like that board so much

[@BigTvProductions]

dude, you have MASSIVE hands 👐

[@coltonappet6821]

Damn 1000 doll hairs! 100 doll hairs is alot for me. Great video

[@XxDrac13xX]

Would be great if they implemented headlights and taillights for lower light riding like the One Wheel

[@ShadrikEaston]

you are so lucky to have such beautiful views

[@pt7604]

Nice board, but I think it should have one front and one rear motor for better traction and stability.

[@perrysasson7135]

Yo brother welcome to Miami! Been watching your videos for about a year. My friends run gun ranges down here if you want to do some private ranges cuz I know that's the only thing you're willing to shoot at let me know cuz they close down the shop and then we can do some shooting out there

[@yakufox]

2017=Gun Shooter Cool Guy 2018=Skateboarder Guy Just...guy....

[@tracer9520]

stumbled upon this video looking for a good means of electric transport, ive been lookoing in to a boosted board, but i think this might be a mid and game changer. 31 miles..... insane

[@Rob-nm8nd]

Just subscribed, I love the content keep doing what you doing man.

Thanks! Welcome to the channel 👊🏻

[@pandatactical4530]

26 MPH!! Holy Shit! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@damianlopez6583]

Can you do some of the best budget boards? These are pretty cool, but something around the $500 range....not gonna spend $1000+ on a board!

[@policeswat64]

Cant wait to get a board

[@pstech9597]

Hey, nice video. I think it´s very light, because my one has a mass of over 30 kg.

Good stuff! I appreciate you.

Review the SKATEBOLT Electric Skateboard Breeze II.

Awesome board, every detail has been thought through and it's most certainly worth the $$$. Costs more than my first car! ;-)

[@dealerovski82]

Hey I love the old remote. I want nothing else!

[@ripmatek]

Just got mine today!

[@oscarhope]

Looks awesome! I’m so hyped to be picking up this board next week. What other boards do you currently possess?

[@TalonSei]

Boosted Dual+ v1, Lou board 3.0 and more are on the way with videos to follow!

[@jeffufcfanaticrosenberg]

coming from a meepo v1.5. no comparison on ride. no instant on. and v1 remote is touchy even in eco mode. but the ride is sick.deck is flexy.

[@lynnh8189]

Please test board out with the All-Terrain wheels and let us know how they work out. Also how much weight will this carry, I weight about 225lbs. Thanks

[@duggfresh61]

They should incorporate some led lights on it, that you can turn on and off for some light at night to see.

[@treysvideoart]

Guess what? The bolt on my rear kingpin snapped. I drove 4 hours to the warehouse to get it replaced. Must ride!

[@Oberyn_Martell]

Thanks... So getting one

[@corymiller2734]

Good review. You put me in the market for an eboard 😂

[@TalonSei]

Good to hear! I'll be posting videos of more options in the future 🤙🏻

[@Lukas-kh5gu]

like a premium boosted board.

[@itschris8093]

a more premium board? i thought there was no such thing.

[@MineJarok]

German engineering :D
