EXWAY Ripple - BEST Kicktail Short Board ESK8? UNDER $400!

[@joetini8884]

Mate, just the fact, I can see actual riding footage and your live review as a "bigger tall guy" is enough for me to say, THANKS SO MUCH!! I'm 6'3, 90kg guy, and I needed to see, how the ripple would perform for someone like me. I just purchased the 159Wh Ripple board, and I am so excited to ride. AWESOME REVIEW!!

[@VaporTrailChannel]

Awesome! Glad it was helpful. I think you’ll have a lot of fun on that board. Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

[@esk8unity]

love it. light weight, portable. sleek. exactly what a kicktail should be. It also has the shape of a landyachtz dingy but the design of a Loaded Omakase

[@VaporTrailChannel]

Agree with all of that! I wasn’t sure it’d be for me, but I dig it 💯 Thanks for watching Fred! Hope you get better soon ❤️‍🩹

[@scoot5642]

how much taller than the dingy?

[@johnthomas2877]

This board looks like it has potential in outdoor concrete skate parks that has snake runs small mellow bowls and parks with not alot of steep vertical walls, not alot of coping and more mellow roll in lips so you don't scrape up the bottom too much. And not too much street type stairs, boxes, and high drop offs.

[@VaporTrailChannel]

Exactly! It’s a fun little board for sure. Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

[@Maw0822]

Just got one of these used. I only need to go a mile or so to the train/shops and this has been perfect

[@VaporTrailChannel]

Exactly! And it’s a really nice ride too!

[@epicadventure1474]

Great review! thanx for your effort! Great board. Alot of hype around traveling with the board. Unfortunately they didn't make use of the same battery system as the Wave - which is a simple clip in clip out application. So the 99Watt Wave is still the best traveling board in my eyes because of that application. Not sure how Exway missed that.

[@VaporTrailChannel]

Yea, that would’ve made it better for sure. The concept of this one isn’t necessarily to fly with, rather the “last mile” type of commuter. Their definition of last mile is like when you get off the bus or train, you can hop on this lightweight short board to get that short bit home. That type of thing. Or for casual small commutes. I suppose they figured they already have one that’s suitable for flying, and this fills the gap on the other end. I appreciate your thoughts! That’s what helps the community, and the manufacturers 💯

Solid review- love this board (like my old hs kick tail board too!) Not sure if missed it, but I didn’t see a top speed here or on Exway’s website…not actually looking for a high top speed - looking for a lower one- with kids & newbs in mind 🤓

[@mrreddington777]

Dude! Awesome video. Seriously I need your stylist lol. This board seems actually sweet.

[@VaporTrailChannel]

Lol 😂 thanks man…I live at the beach, so it’s my style of choice. Appreciate your support 💯⚡️🛹⚡️

[@sandorszabolcsi]

Great review as always, I have the revel on loaded OMAKASE but this would be great due to lightness of the board. Unfortunately says sold out on the website.

[@VaporTrailChannel]

Thank you so much for watching! Yea, this is a nice little package that is definitely lighter than my board with the Revel Kit on it. I think they're about to release the next batch of the Ripple, so keep your eyes peeled!

[@codea1273]

I have the revel kit that broke down. Might by the ripple to replace it

[@ChelseyBunny]

Bro... I love my ripple. My Flex is now taking a back seat. Short trips ripple. Long rides Atlas. May just sell the flex. 😢😂

[@VaporTrailChannel]

I think you nailed it there! The Ripple is fantastic as a short board / last mile board. Lots of fun. I did just let the Flex I had go. Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

[@esk8jaimes]

"Can't do that (tic tacs) on a Meepo!" I don't know, the lightweight Meepo Mini Dual might be a short board competitor... Smaller 200w motors though.

[@VaporTrailChannel]

That’s possibly true. I do t have that board, so technically, I can’t do that 😂 I had the Meepo Mini 2 and it was so heavy that it was a bit too hard to do, but do-able in a pinch. I probably should’ve said I couldn’t reliably with the Meepo Mini 2 I had. Sold that board.

[@stephenjordanesk8]

Love the content

[@VaporTrailChannel]

Thank you! 💯

[@jonassvensson1819]

Elwing made almost exactly the same board five years ago.

[@VaporTrailChannel]

Cool. Yea, I can see a brand seeing a hole left by another company years after they’ve stopped making something, and filling it. Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

[@esk8jaimes]

What voltage is the battery exactly, guessing 36v? No website listing for this part, sadly... Likewise, replacement hub motors not listed.

[@VaporTrailChannel]

I think the hub part is because the listing may be incomplete as it hasn’t shipped yet. I think the official release hasn’t happened yet. The battery…I’m going to find out what I can, and put it as a note in the description. Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

Thank you 😊

[@kevinchan6271]

sttill waiting for mine ....

[@VaporTrailChannel]

Oh man...sorry to hear that. This was a demo unit, so that's probably why I was able to get it before retail. Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

[@kevinchan6271]

@@VaporTrailChannel Just got mine, gotta learn to do the stance you had. Quick question, when you were charging your board does the battery light up ?

[@JesseKollins]

If only expert had them in stock

[@VaporTrailChannel]

I believe the official release is to be this month, then they will show up as in stock. Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻
