POWERFUL Electric Skateboard - Exway X1 Pro RIOT Review & SPEED Test

I never owned electric skateboard before but after getting them last month or so for the very first time, it changed my life. I do own Breeze II and wish they also had that separate belt driven hub from their website for us to purchase. I am quite interested in this electric skateboard. This will be my next buy! Thanks Ronnie!

[@MrDoomsqad]

Your videos are super helpful and easily digestible. You are a great host!

[@EricRobinsoncav3manb0b]

So I went ahead and got the X1 Pro with regular hub motors and I have been using it to commute. It works great and I highly recommend it. That said, I have had a couple of instances where the board disconnected from the remote while hard braking on a hill. This is terrifying especially when barreling downhill toward a busy intersection. Key lessons learned: 1) Stay off public roads as much as possible. 2) DO NOT commit to a speed that you cannot foot brake or slide stop from. 3) Practice those skills. 4) Helmet and slide glove. Every time. Bearing in mind that neither of those things will help if you get smoked by motor vehicle.

Damn, dude. You've been pumping out videos lately and that's great! Keep up the good work bro. 👍

[@imkester]

I love hub motors too but to be able to switch from a variety of wheels is the biggest selling factor of the belt drives. I think theres an off road wheels that you can also use with the belt drives.

[@jamesfarquhar8507]

According to the website, it is actual Line-X, can't wait for it to arrive! Imma buy all my accessories, besides the helmet, from a skate shop.

[@vincentim54]

Very good video because of the quality of your comments

[@hygrometer]

the noise from the belt motors makes the hubs so much more attractive (i just ordered x1 pro for $709, woooo! been riding a hub board for the past 2 years, max speed 16mph, 5 mile range, OK hillclimb...def looking forward to the upgrade, great review on the x1pro in your other video!)

[@rockacheese3199]

Hey roonie what electric skateboard should I suggest

[@jedltrecolorist10]

hey ronnie, I have an Exway X1 Pro Riot and could you have a video tutorial on how to adjust the tension of the belts? I literally spent 3 hrs unscrewing/tightening and all that fiddling stuff last night and cant seem to figure out how to do it.

[@noxvoids4058]

There are other youtubers

[@technoalah]

Nice video, do you have external microphone or that’s just from 360 ? Cheers

[@MrDoomsqad]

There is one thing you dont adress in any of your videos though: would a hub motor be better for downhill? So rephrase: would it have less resistance with gravity added speed compared to the Riot?

[@bournechupacabra]

There is a general trade off of top speed and torque in belt motors. Usually because of the gear ratio. It gives mechanical advantage for torque but means that your wheels are spinning less per motor turn and thus lower top speed.

[@RonnieSarmiento]

my immediate thought was the YEAH SCIENCE gif. thx!

[@gghdjekrkk7711]

Hey man! Loved the video. I'm in the process of buying an exway x1 pro, and I'm debating wether to get hubs or riot. I was leaning towards the riot kit, but got a bit bummed out at the end where you talked about sliding and deep carves. I was wondering though, is it just "a little weird" because the motors touch the board? If so, could I not just flip them? I love sliding and carving, so I'd love to know this! :)

[@RonnieSarmiento]

yup, you can do that!

@@RonnieSarmiento guess where u are have some nice paved roads, I'm hoping that using softer wheels would sooth out the bumpiness from the badly surfaces roads around me, vibrations were so bad that my feet went off the board sometimes, also numbing too :(

[@Zachsnotboard]

Yo cool to see a dh person on an Eboard. What board would best replicate downhill skating, assuming it's a belt would love to try broken in wheels.

[@emersonjoven9910]

you said something about the riot kit able to accept other wheels. can you swap in some shark wheels in there?

[@loadinguser496]

Wow this is amazing to see cause it's really awsome good vid

[@najeff2]

How much range do you get out of the belts? My belts literally break within 200 miles of riding and I can't tell if that's only an issue for me

[@RonnieSarmiento]

i personally dont have an answer, but if the stoked squad wants to come thru and let ppl know how much they get let this man know. although im sure it will vary depending on belt size/type/board/where you ride soooooo

[@lynnewarren3216]

Ronnie Sarmiento Hi Ronnie. Love your videos. They were so helpful to me selecting an electric skateboard for my son’s 21 birthday. He got the Exway X1 Pro. Absolutely loves it. But a couple of km into riding it, the motor failed (while going down hill. He got a bit banged up when he lost brakes and speed control but is ok and still enthusiastic.) The board won’t turn on now. We are working with Electric Boarding Company who we purchased it through but not getting any response from Exway. Any thoughts? Have you ever heard of this happening? Is the motor self-service replaceable or should we get a new board? Don’t want it to happen again. Is there something my son should have done differently? Thanks for any ideas you have.

[@jaygaming1921]

Which board is better the ride1up carbon fiber or the exway x1 pro

[@ReeceMacDonaldDaBaller]

Did you notice a significant difference in ride quality between the hub and riot kit? The roads around me are fine but not great and I'm wondering if its worth it to by the riot version for that reason alone.

[@masszero3521]

Make a video about comparing Exway X1 PRO vs Evolve Stoke

[@RonnieSarmiento]

Other than the fact that they’re both electric skateboards, they are very different. Their stoke is probably more similar to the riptide elite

[@vhinceeldreinalundasan2516]

I hope to have an electric long board huhu 😭💔

[@dha588]

Are there any new promotional codes?

[@danielpostoronka3483]

Where can I get a hub motor for the riot? I have the belt one and I bought the board yesterday

[@EGGHEADIUS]

How do you handle the acceleration at 100% from a stand still?? I'm 195lbs and at even 75% I feel like I could easily get thrown off if I try and accelerate as fast as I can from a dead stop..

[@Abstrahues]

Pretty weird how you got more range with the riot kit, has this happened more often or nah?

[@prince1k-kelly821]

4:58 where can I find this!! my wheel from the hub is cracked

[@Prisuhm]

do a review on the backfire G2 black. I just got it and its amazing. I had also ordered a meepo cam,pus v2 and when i got it the trucks were tight enough so the whole trucks wobbled. liek the base of the trucks werent tightned to the board. but anyways i fell off because of it and fractured my collarbone all because meepo doesnt test their boards fully

[@RonnieSarmiento]

Sorry to hear that, dude. I always check all the nuts and bolts and adjust them to my liking with how I ride. It’s a good habit to get into when you get a new board

[@PonciJams]

As far as range wise goes would you say that was riding Eco style it hardcore like how you usually do

[@rayahnraschke405]

Currently tossing up between the riot and hub version of this board. Both look hella slick but can anyone tell me if the carvability is decreased with the belt motors on? I love a nice loose carvey ride and have heard that belt motors can sometimes limit the turning ability of the board. Cheers

[@TheNewnan3]

[@caryEUCNutbar]

Can you not reverse the motors so they are facing the rear rather than being under the board? This would give you more clearance for tight turns and for me, i like the look of motors hanging off the rear of the board.

[@RonnieSarmiento]

if you mess with it you could

[@caryEUCNutbar]

@@RonnieSarmiento i think i'll do this. I ordered the X1 Pro as well as the Riot Pack. Should be getting it on Monday! I think i saw someone on KZbin who put the motors facing the rear using the riot pack. I think it was Daniel Kwan....i could be wrong though.

[@fiyahwayne495]

Just a little cold now here in NY but I'm gonna man up and try to ride it through the cold!!

[@jasonwiltjer9]

The riot pack is advertised at being 1 mph slower than the hubs but having more torque. Why would it be faster? Kind of set the board up for failure there lol

[@RonnieSarmiento]

In my tests my top speed for the hub motors was off from what they claim, so why not question that the riot will have a different result as well? I guess you could say riot is faster at first, with hubs being faster top speed. It really just depends on the kind of race your having I guess.

[@dgor.1266]

I just placed my order I have no idea when it's going to get here but can't wait to be screaming down the streets like a jet super loud I hope it's definitely out

[@dgor.1266]

@2020Brandon F 👍 I will say a must-have but for short-distance only 4-6 miles only I weigh 180-190lbs, after 4-5 miles the board loses power and goes slow, my average speed is around 15-24mph in the Highest gear with Turbo on, it's basically the only way to ride this type of board cuz it have a type of whistle or scream that you want to hear, it's not too loud and it's not too quiet all these KZbinrs just hype it up it's a great sound but you got to ride it like it's hot,

[@dgor.1266]

@2020Brandon F how come you don't go for the flex,

[@dgor.1266]

@2020Brandon F no I said I normally go 15-24mph. A full battery it could go 27mph but that's only for a short time then 26mph 90-80% battery

[@dgor.1266]

Dude you should have had this like since last year man, I think you can enter some type of code to get $200 off and another $50 off the price they have now, but I get 4-6mile 180-190lbs you could get more but that's like if you ride in it in 2nd gear going really slow, I'm just telling you the highest gear and riding it to make it scream as loud as possible you could get 7 miles maybe cuz you weigh only 160

[@dgor.1266]

29 miles per hour I think it's the exway x1 pro hub, I have the riot it's 1-2 mile per hour slower, put it this way when I have a full battery and with me not on the board just push the throttle it maxes out at 27 miles per hour, so I do not think it will go anything faster than that I did a speed test only one time and when I looked at the remote it was saying 26mph, and shit bro that is fast, you could probably get 1-2mph more, the thing is fast

[@masszero3521]

to all the review about electric skateboard which one would you definately prefer for us?
