[@david-johnmonney5230]

Nice discussion. I have a Backfire G3 which I love. If I had to improve it, it could be : - Longer deck (maybe 2 or 3 inches) to stay a bit more in the flexible area while cruising at 25km/h. I don't feel very stable with a narrower stance while cruising. I'm 180cm tall. - Larger deck (0.5 inch) to keep the toe of my shoe a bit more on the deck (shoe size 43EUR). Toe on the edge is not comfortable, but also depends on the shoes. Classic street SB shoes are not the best for ESK8 I think, especially the ones with flat/hard soles. - More battery (like the G3 Plus) not because it's not enough (it lasts easily 20km+ and has no sag) but to keep it in the good range of charge that make it last longer. - More wheel options. Maybe bigger and softer wheels that fit the hub motors. Belt drives can answer that but maintenance and discretion are another story ;-) The stock wheels are excellent on flat surfaces but we don't have perfect roads everywhere. - App : to be able to make some tweaks. I think that 3 modes are enough to keep it simple but it should be nice to adjust the top speed and at least the breaking curve. For example in France the top speed is limited to 25km/h so would be nice to set it at top speed in one mode to stay full throttle. Can't wait to see the test of the "Backfire Zealot" and "Boundmotors Bound D1" ! I bet the Zealot will kill the Exway Flex ;-)

[@thatoneasiankid8734]

I actually wrote up a 44 page design project for a skateboard truck with an aluminum loop in it back in high school!

[@woodypeterkin1890]

what about the Backfire G3 plus vs the Exway flex, would you always take the Exway over the backfire or the other way round?

[@adnankazi2215]

Joona Bremer I feel exway flex is the best Cz of firm updates and other features but also me confused about wowgo 3 or exway flex - my mood now is starting to turn to exway flex because u get belt driven option later Nd firm updates are the best thing lately

I use a rope chain lock, for bike. Specifically Absus. I wrap it around the trucks and "tie" it with a single loop. Very secure (as any locked bike).

[@jacobhodges5706]

[@jacobhodges5706]

@@russell7505 they seem pretty cool. I haven't tried them. They're not for high speeds that's for sure

[@bryancrane821]

My favorite board (that I own) is the evolve gtr. The all terrain and street wheels option is great. The range is great. Where I live there isn't many stop and charge options, none where I like to ride. So range is a huge factor for me. I also have a exway x1 pro, only hubs option. I love that board too but the roads here are too rough for hubs, gotta be pulleys. I take the exway out only to ride up the street to the store these days. Commute and leisure ride on the evolve. I have ridden boosted, la croix, one wheel and a meepo (not sure which model). La croix is definitely my favorite but too expensive for my wife to get "on board" with.

[@kiwimon3204]

Hows the exway 1 Pro riding down and up footpath side walk kerb dips. Uneven surfaces on footpaths and roads?? I ride the Evolve GTR Carbon with AT wheels. Love it. Rides on any road and footpath surfaces

[@bryancrane821]

@@kiwimon3204 the hub motors make sidewalk cracks rough if you're going fast. Uneven roads with the carbon deck is a little wobbly. The exway x1 pro likes even surfaces and smooth roads. On those its wonderful. But these biggest reason I bought the bamboo gtr is to have a smoother ride. I do ride all terrain mostly. But even the pu wheels are smoother than exway. The hub motors are the real issue.

[@bboylorettoEight08]

Have you tried the riptide R1 it’s pretty fast and goes about 16-18 miles but a medium size like a skateboard

[@pete24p]

u use an old snowboard combo lock with extendable cable so u can adjust it to the length you need... i just run it thru the hole in my paris trucks on the kingpin side on the front trucks and run it thru a stop sign pole or something with holes... try it out super easy way to lock the board up... i use it religiously on my wowgo 3x no need for a hole in the board... also wanted to ask you both but would the new cloud wheels 105 discovery wheels fit and work on my wowgo3x? or would these be too large? i feel like the 105s will be perfect i do think the 120s would be a bit too large.. but the 105s could be the perfect solution... thanks in advance for any info you can throw my way.... god bless and stay healthy the two of yous lol.. -p3t3r

[@trishaleaver3581]

Your perfect deck sounds exactly like the Pool King Chris Strople. 33.5 inches. You just have to drill new truck holes to the front to lengthen the wheel base. Great vids. Keep em coming:)

[@Shiroikage84]

so i have a meepo 2.0 since it came out and the biggest problems i encounter is it doesn't have a kicktail which makes it tough for me to maneuver certain areas in my town. The other thing is that the hubs are kicking the shit out of my leg joints. so i was thinking of the revel kit with a loaded poke and slick revolution foamies. I would appreciate your thoughts on this Ronnie.

[@Quest4us]

Great discussion, guys, thank you. A few things...I was hoping to hear your thoughts on the various types of wheels, especially the new larger cloud wheels for comfort and quiet. Another great discussion would be the pros and cons of motor types...belt vs hub vs direct drive. And I was thinking about problem of locking one's board. Like they do with bikes, high end thieves usually work very fast because they carry highly effective tools. The thought of finding your board gone or chopped of all the valuable parts would be heart breaking. It seems a lightweight backpack could be designed with flexible adjustments that could carry almost any size board. With my board on my back, I could do errands or go anywhere with no worries. Is there any backpack like this out there now?

[@morsumbra9692]

2 issues with Eskate and backpacks. 1st is the weight of the board. It's 20 lbs thats stupid long and straight. And most backpacks carry the weight on the shoulders. The board pulls the bag back and down, So it's just hard to balance and be comfortable without you holding the straps. Boosted backpack did the best by having a cup on the bottom of the bag to help hold the board from bottom and top.

[@esk8jaimes]

Doesn't Exway have a mini electric skateboard on the way?

[@stealtherider3008]

Great video interview! Ronnie and Daniel you guys rock!!

[@Rokstarr121]

I was just curious, let's say you have belt driven e longboard and the battery came down to zero. Can you just ride like a normal longboard ? Because I saw some people rode hub driven e board when battery was out, but i was curious if you can do it also with belt driven board like if belts aren't some problem riding it shut down.

[@davidlinscheid2321]

Thank you Ronnie and Daniel. A very interesting conversation. I like very much the ease of turning with double king pins, but even tightened down, they were not made for high speeds. My favorite board is the Meepo NLS Pro, good range and crazy fast.

Closest thing to an electric street skateboard out there, and the guys from Braille made a model with Clark Patrick ollieing it over 5 boards.

[@ted714]

I've been trying to find fixes for fogged up glasses w/ masks (toothepaste and stuff) and my best conclusion is to Pull the glasses a bit from the face to let air in and then put the glasses over the face shield/mask and don't let air escape from the mask. In conclusion, let air flow between your face and glasses & put the glasses over the mask & close the air from escaping from the top of the mask.

On the Exway Flex... Belts or Hubs?

[@prins2x]

Depends what you look for, most people go for performance and get the belts, but the Flex hubs are pretty good as well..

[@peejayem4700]

hubs: quiet/simple/less maintenance belts: more torque/wide wheel selection

[@MrXiben]

Also, belts are more comfortable to ride due to the wheels. Hubs have sleeves around the motors and it's not that soft. Also 85mm instead of 96mm. I bought a hub tho

[@PeopleDoingStuff]

Would love something similar to a trampa that had nothing to do with trampa. Also lighter, Trampa's are so heavy. Twice as heavy as my Chinese mountain board. How do you stuff a 22000mah 12s battery into a very light weight super off road capable board though? I am just waiting for the super light super off road capable board in general. All the "real" AT boards are quite heavy. And that is with an all carbon composite and cnc aluminum build. Come on engineers, do it! However, for me, range is king. Hard to find boards that you can ride until your body is beat with out ever worrying about battery life. No quick charger needed! Kaly and Trampa are kings here. Not even the Lacroix can hang. However, I am getting my first street board and your videos and Daniel's have helped. I just wish you could get a super clean looking board like the x1 pro, with more flex and more range. That to me, seems ideal.
