Meepo Board v2 Electric Skateboard Performance in All 4 Modes

The Meepo v2 electric skateboard comes with four speed modes: Beginner, Eco, Expert, and Pro. I tested the acceleration, top speed, and braking performance in each mode and made some interesting findings. Pro mode was quite a surprise!

[@alexosullivan1986]

Ive been waiting for this review for ages. So excited!

[@ride_7492]

Alex O'Sullivan me too!!

[@DanielSOlmstead]

I hopped on KZbin just to say the same thing!

[@imacyclepath440]

Good job man... have been waiting for this video. Your content quality has been processing nicely by the way. I know it's hard work and just wanted to give you a shout out for that. Respect.

[@cobyveron]

Meepo v2 vs wowgo 2s next 😃😃

[@DavLim86]

Up vote !

[@DDay336]

We want answers!

[@MyMatt44]

Need to know!!!

[@jakewillenbring3078]

Yes!

[@casperhansen3012]

You know what would be interesting? Another test of acceleration on Pro mode on Meepo v2 vs Boosted Board V2 Dual+ acceleration!

[@DanielKwan]

Definitely. Need to check with my friend’s schedule. And the weather’s, heh.

[@chattrick93]

Meepo V2 or Wowgo 2s? Please cover that in the next video.

[@ronny3484]

Chattrick sleepin on the Verreal😎

[@ronny3484]

1000watts and only budget board with replaceable urethanes, also comes to $368 usd with coupon

[@UzumakiNaruto_]

Only problem is that the Verreal deck looks kinda cheap and the remote is the old Meepo remote that doesn't have the smooth braking/acceleration that Ownboard/Wowgo and now Meepo has. Also Verreal only has up to 6.4ah battery choice and no Sanyo option. Also 'replaceable urethanes' isn't quite true when you have to change the entire wheel compared to say Backfire 2 where you only have to replace the actual urethane.

[@cristianconstantin6496]

would have been nice if ownboard also sent their newest w1s that has the samsung 30q battery and other small upgrades. That one is now the most water resistant board on the market.

[@DavLim86]

Up vote again! Meepo vs wowgo!!

[@rickdeckard7470]

I am very impressed with the customer service I received from Meepo. I had an issue with my invoice (my fault) and even though the sale was paid and completed, Meepo went way out of their way to support my request and resolve my issues. The communication and customer service was fantastic! After many weeks researching all the eboards on the market for this price range, I finally chose the 38" V2P over the Wowgo2s, Verreal, and others. I wanted the option of replacable PU wheels, this was a must. Also, the performance/price ratio was unbeatable. I like that fact Meepo strives to have continuous product improvement after reading many of the reviews. Looking forward to receiving my board and trying it out (will provide a ride review later). I hope Meepo V2P does come out with a bigger wheel option for this board that I can purchase separately. This would be perfect for riding around the more historic parts of Madrid.. thx Meepo!

[@GemmaLScott]

Best review I’ve seen, good to see your ‘mistakes’ so viewers know these things take time to master. Not just dummy proof accessories

[@DanielKwan]

Thanks Gemma!

[@r-b-k]

It was the First time for meine being excited for a upcoming Video onbKZbin. But i think everyone was waiting for this Video who saw the unboxing! And you did a nice Job. Thank you!

[@mobeston]

Wears sunglasses and says it kinda hard to see lol

[@maxvorobey1316]

Have been waiting for a quality video on this board, thanks! 👍

[@ogjohanson6164]

Not sure if you're getting it, But the campus version 2 looks interesting and i would love to see a video of how powerful it is. Great content as always

[@gjdotinga]

Thanks a lot. Very good review. I just orderded the Meepo V2, last tuesday, waiting for it to arrive atm

[@quintonsantellan8328]

Lol "well...if your a beginner, you might fall off". Brutal

[@grillmeisterflash]

thanks for the great review daniel, i wish i had a spot like this for skating my meepo v2.0 30" just arrived and i had the first esk8 ride of my life, dude what a fun i was scared to try more than mode2 because of the crazy breaks i feel the next logical change for the meepo should be a new controller that is precise in breaking other companys have it so the parts are out there on the market. enough words, i need to ride my meepo now !

[@grillmeisterflash]

omg just recognized i did 13km with the board in the wrong direction "engine front not back" thats why the breaks felt so crazy, total different driving now

[@mx-528]

Thank you for this video I plan on buying one tomorrow not many people cover the v2 board cause it’s just released !!!!! Thank you for the help!

[@MarkusPalmHD]

Excellent video my friend! Can't wait tot est the Meepo V2 myself. Keep it up!

[@KyleRuggles]

A lil tip! If your camera is on AE, point it towards your shirt with the phone. Metering! ya know? :) Looks like an awesome board, but you!!! got me sold on the WowGo Mini :) first board! thanks man. You're popular! now imagine actual famous people! if you feel awkward.... 10:07 Really love your video's btw, I like how there's no music, it's real! and to hear how the board sounds, it's the ambient audio that does it for me, especially with your 20min WowGo Mini video. But I dig your choice in beats too, consistency matters, and you are consistent. You should be getting way more hits than this! Dunno if you're reading this but, thanks again for the WowGo Mini ride footage, sealed the deal!

[@DanielKwan]

Thanks! Maybe I‘ll post more ride footage.

[@bretholtzman1524]

That was very entertaining, had me in stitches preparing yourself for pro mode ,looked like you where getting ready to jump in a cold shower. 😂 you did it ! Thank you.

[@DanielKwan]

I knew from going full throttle on Boosted that I’d need to really get down. I wasn’t expecting Meepo v2 to throw me back like that!

[@tombatable]

Daniel, how did the controls feel by comparison to the old 1.5 controls, and to the Wowgo 2S controls? Did they feel like an improvement? Reliable? And also, thank you for doing this review. This is very helpful.

[@DanielKwan]

Definitely better than v1.5’s remote. Compared to WowGo’s remote, not sure yet. I need to test in stop-and-go traffic to know for sure.

[@beesleyboy]

another great video Daniel, I have been out flying drones and ROV's for years and always have a lot of people watching me and asking lots of questions. lol I don't hang around in the same spot for to long in the same spot with my skateboard, but do get lots of doods shouting out. I'm still hoping to come over at the end of the year and go out riding with you, I'm hoping I can borrow one of your boards, I can't bring the Ownbourd on the plane.

[@DanielKwan]

Sure you can borrow. Around end of year I might be visiting the US. We’ll see.

[@socomon69]

LOL. Pro mode is not for the faint of heart.

[@DanielKwan]

Aaaaand it's raining again in Shanghai...

[@TonioXenon]

Daniel Kwan "Fast" describes top speed and "quick" describes acceleration.

[@stefan0man301]

Uhhh,, fast quick who cares. That meepo 2.0 is both!

[@TonioXenon]

Stefan0man I know it is. Just letting him know for future videos. Cool vid btw as usual.

[@Travers_P]

Was eagerly anticipating this video. That Cliff hanger at the end though 😩😩😩. Torture for people like me trying to decide between the wowgo 2s and this board

[@Travers_P]

So is it gonna be a while until part 2?

[@nunyabiz012]

Looks like a great board. Cheers for another fantastic review! ... that remote though!!!

[@thetroothhurtz]

Thanks for this review!! The Pro Mode looks badass!!

[@shaunewe]

Finally! Oh the anticipation...

[@kaidenbradl6870]

Really cool!! I need one

[@DiogoPereira90]

Thumbs up for using helmet!

[@ahmadqatouni]

0:45 damn I like that editing ... so smooth

[@br00klyngreek13]

funny how meepo on their website specifically says "29mph" for the v2 motors...yet on any review, I haven't seen it go over 25 mph on flat ground...I guess they test it with no one riding on it lol

[@wimaxphone]

They should hide the batteries and electronic inside the board. Have the thin top cover for access batteries and electric. This way the board look thinner. Pack more batteries for longer distance.

[@CaptainSchlockler]

Should I buy the v2? If you were recommending to a close friend who had their finger hovering over the "Paypal" pay button on the Meepo site, what would the answer be to that question?

[@DanielKwan]

Go ahead.

[@CaptainSchlockler]

I saw the "Wowgo 2S" on one of your other videos. Based on your experience with both boards, which one would you recommend out of the two? Or, if you have another recommendation for best board, feel free to add. ETA: Just saw the end of the video - will wait for the next part.

[@DanielKwan]

CaptainSchlockler - Get the Meepo if speed is more important. Get the WowGo if ride comfort is more important.

[@apexcapital1328]

Meepo V2 Plus

[@CaptainSchlockler]

+Esk8 Forum I've got a pending order on the v2 (unfulfilled) which I put through a day ago, and I've been trying to desperately contact customer support to let me pay the extra to upgrade to the v2+, but their customer support is terrible. I'm going to be hugely annoyed if they ship my order out before responding to my request to upgrade to the v2+. xD

[@MeMyselfAndI616]

Are you going to repaint the remote? I hated it at first but the longer you look at it the more okay it gets.. anyway, I'm going to order the V2 short soon! (When PayPal stops fucking up)

[@H4ydenPrkr]

Hey Daniel :) I just wanted to let you know that I really love your videos and your channel . Your videos are always very informative and nice to watch. Just keep going and you will get much more followers soon. I just have one question about the meepo v2. How do you like the remote ? Some people say it would be not so good that it wouldn’t feel that precise. What do you think ?

[@DanielKwan]

Depends what kind of precision you’re after. It is a lot better than Meepo’s previous remotes but not on par with the kind that their main competitors use. (Meepo has advantages in other areas.)

[@maskreps]

Great review! I’m currently trying to change my tech channel into a eclectic skateboard channel! Tips? Thanks

[@DanielKwan]

Experiment. Have fun. :)

[@smooth1908]

I need a meepo board

[@wenjiesu3436]

Welcome to Paeanboard.com，here is what you need

[@ALEXESCOBAR215]

I wanna see a video with the wowgo mini

[@philw1206]

Notice you don't wear this full face anymore. Any reasons for this? Deciding whether I should get one

[@dantesinferno1998ify]

How has it been so far I just came off of the genesis hellfire unfortunately mine broke within 4 month and the company told me there no longer in business to do any warranty. I’m looking to buy a board that will last would you recommend?

[@letswiki]

*IT'S VERY CLEAR THAT U SHOULD GET THE..* :D best cut! ;) what do u think about the platic enclosures with the air ventilation holes? Can dirt or water damage the ESC easily? Overall it seems Meepo did some nice improvements..

[@TonioXenon]

LetsWiki no dirt is getting in there its sealed from the inside. I got caught in heavy rain riding my new Meepo home yesterday and when i got home and opened the ESC cover it was dry although the foam was damp around the edges.

[@letswiki]

Thx for the info ;)

[@antoinet2659]

can we push the board like a normal board when the battery is down ? Excellent review +1 suscriber :)

[@DanielKwan]

Yes but you’d need to push more than a normal board.

[@callme_Sn1per]

I know this is a late comment but are the wheels good for like beachy areas? Like going down the city or strand

[@ysmarketplace8902]

Nice video

[@isaklanden3883]

How is the new remote with the throttle?

[@DanielKwan]

I need to test some more but better than v1.5 for sure.

[@ciaranfarrell3821]

Cool vid🤗

[@brianzito4752]

7:05 "If u are a beginner u might fall off" Hahaha

[@rex33cc]

is this the riverside walk under the nanpu bridge? man we should ride together sometime!

[@DanielKwan]

Yup it is. PM me on Instagram or Facebook :)

[@declanchan4121]

I would buy it but I'm concerned about how long the durability of the board will be. Usually with *cheap* e boards, they have a short life span..🤔

[@nitishgupta5959]

Isnt it supposed to go 29 mph as it says on the meepo website

[@yep2183]

Yo do you think that you can do a video on the need ownboard plz

[@larl07]

Awesome! Did you notice a lag in the response of the controller?

[@7supersnake7]

Hey, i love your vids! Could you do a hill test with the wowgo2s and the meepo v2 ?

[@andreasholmm]

Wowgo 2’s, wowgo mini or meepo 2? What would you choose if you could choose one for everyday use?

[@guangruiwang5089]

It's very clear you should get the ... haha epic XD

[@stefan0man301]

25mph!! That's awesome! And that acceleration looked crazy in pro. Ok I'm getting one :) I gotta go for the Sanyo batteries though. I wonder if that would make a difference?

[@jacks_Dc5]

Stefan0man sanyo is 10km extra and 200$ more

[@stefan0man301]

Jack0Jack9 , I Know about the range and cost it's on meepo boards website. They also last 3000 charge cycles. I was wondering about the performance, Due to the new circut board, esc, vesc settings and the top pro mode considering the 10% increase in size and 4,000mah 15a output of the cells.

[@Ethan.s..]

Stefan0man Sanyo will maintain peek performance for considerably longer. But I don’t think it will out perform a fully charged intro battery.

[@wilfrodebodo]

Daniel could you clarify which one you prefer over the other and why? Wowgo 2S or Meepo 2.0? Thanks!

[@RenegadeBastard]

Nice! Now the real question is... Did Kieran ever fix the ESC rattle issue when the silicone / glue holding the ESC to the housing breaks and allows the ESC module to rattle in the housing while riding as it becomes unbonded from the plastic? 🤔

[@TonioXenon]

Renegade Bastard that was not a common issue but yes its fixed he uses a different stronger silicone now.

[@omarbarajas58]

Hey quick question to anyone who can help. My meepo board(the same exact one as the one in the video) doesn't go over 20. I'm 150 pounds. Any help ?

[@RVDL]

how's the wobble?

[@user-bd3fn8ee4k]

Lets fucking goo

[@mikev717]

Does anyone know if you have to pay extra duties or tariffs when it arrives I live in Canada btw

[@ethansanders9619]

I didn't go like THIS, I went like this.

[@jimgolden5761]

Thank you for the video. I am about to purchase my first board, and I am still debating between the Meepo and Ownboard kicktail boards. Since both have recently been upgraded, I am struggling with my decision. I know the Meepo is about five inches (127mm) longer, but beyond that, I'm not sure of the differences.

[@apexcapital1328]

Golden Air Get the Meepo V2 Plus that just landed with replaceable PU.

[@jimgolden5761]

Esk8 Forum I ordered the V2 last week 🤬

[@apexcapital1328]

Golden Air See if they’ll let you cancel the order or just upgrade the parts as they wear out.

[@jimgolden5761]

I've sent a message, but based on the comments on their Facebook page recently, I am not expecting a reply.

[@Kappanaama]

Damn UPS didn't call or anything when they try to bring my board today. I call them whats going on and they told me their workers doesn't have phones. I ask how you going to get in when someone need to come open door for your workers. I hope I will get my board on monday. Going to go outside and wait till the driver come. I was so ready to go drive in this weekend. :/

[@logansimpkin3221]

Can the board go in reverse

[@EJTechandDIY]

what range do you get on it?

[@RoyBales]

Pros/cons versus the short or long model? Trying to decide what's best. Currently have a 27' Acton Blink S.

[@IAMDELUXE]

I have the short version and its only really good for short distances, which is what I bought it for. For long rides the short board will be unstable and uncomfortable.

[@samsonhinds7953]

Dude wtf my bad whenever I brake it launches me off

[@aidenemmitt1152]

I lovr ure vids sooo much bro

[@Votypeks]

can you compare Backfire 2S (newer version) with this or other eboards ? :)

[@ok-up7ld]

nice vid

[@uwsalocin]

please compare the acceleration to the boosted board!

[@TheRalic]

That cliffhanger xD

[@mele6691]

Great Video

[@DanielKwan]

Thanks :)

[@csskongen]

cool bro ty for the video

[@krisloberas2340]

Which would you recommend, wowgo 2s or the meepo v2?

[@apexcapital1328]

Meepo Board v2 Plus just dropped, maybe check that out.

[@thomaschiaravalle8352]

Do a video on the Meepo Campus 2

[@stefan0man301]

Wouldn't it be better if you tested the boards starting with the fastest mode? Because that's when you need the most battery for accurate testing. Then you can go down the modes to beginner and it won't really matter. Just an opinion.

[@DanielKwan]

Yeah I suppose.

[@stefan0man301]

You could always edit the video to make it look like you started from beginner? Or not it's all good, I enjoy your videos either way. But how do you like the meepo 2? Does it feel solid? No issues to work out? I was worried about the new circutry.

[@icjinu]

nice video Mr. Kwan. What brand is the helmet?

[@DanielKwan]

Bell. I have a link to it in the video description.

[@kennethapayart2733]

so what is the best board now? wowgo, meepo or ownboard?

[@gugugua]

Finally

[@Boldalt]

Hows the connection between the board and controller

[@Jcooh]

Watching your video in Shen Zhen

[@seanc6054]

would you mind to give an episode on mini boards ? Cus i am thinking to get one hahhha

[@notreal3164]

How does the braking compare to the v1.5?

[@andymartinez1426]

Cool need to update my meepo 1.0 😱😱😱 already

[@theodorephillips6460]

Omg thats a sick Helmet how is it called? I want to have it 😍

[@DanielKwan]

Bell Super 3R (amzn.to/2LrFrJP). Great full face helmet for warm weather!

[@Qwertyasdfgqerwev]

that controller looks straight out of toys r us though.

[@yaseenesprit1165]

nice videos enjoy watching quick question does this board go backwards or reverse thank you

[@DanielKwan]

There’s a button on the remote to switch to reverse.

[@yaseenesprit1165]

OK thank you

[@user-ks9cj4bl3e]

how much motor power?

[@thomas.champagne]

The SkateMetric's analysis of this Meepo V2 has been release here: www.reddit.com/r/ElectricSkateboarding/comments/8mfrwh/meepo_v2_benchmarks_and_brief_review_wowgo_2s/ SkateMetric's comparison charts: skatemetric.com/index.php/visualize-and-compare/ @Daniel Did you experienced also the "jerky and imprecise" control in expert mode? SkateMetric are mentionning that for the pro mode.

[@DanielKwan]

Expert mode is nice and smooth. Pro mode in my opinion feels more jerky than Meepo v1.5 on take off but just takes some practice to get used to. I went riding again yesterday and I can basically handle Pro mode in traffic now. But I’d probably use Expert mode more often than Pro mode. In Pro mode you gotta think more about how you stand and how you move your thumb.

[@thomas.champagne]

Daniel Kwan Meepo V2 expert mode is matching wowgo 2s one's in terms of smoothess and acceleration?

[@DanielKwan]

Less smooth and accelerates faster I think.

[@robbieharris16]

“It’s quite hard to see” never removes sun glasses....

[@cowcowd]

Always Good review awesome

[@DanielKwan]

Thanks!

[@osvaldo554]

My dumbass ate shit lol, going to fast down a hill and hit the brake a bit to hard. So I hope the new control does a better at braking .

[@maximk.8330]

Hi Can you make a raffle of a new V2 Board? Would be very nice! :D

[@bretholtzman1524]

Dan the man !

[@369frederik1]

Hey, when's part 2 going up? :D

[@369frederik1]

@daniel kwan

[@aidenemmitt1152]

What are your opinions on the meepo v2 short

[@Al-sw2sd]

How is the Meepo V2 on rough roads?

[@DanielKwan]

Depends on how rough and your tolerance and what you’re comparing to. It’s much better on smooth roads for sure.

[@juggernaugh75321]

How do you like the new remote?

[@DanielKwan]

It’s ok. It’s much better than v1.5’s remote.
