First look at the WOWGO 2S MAX and 105 Honeycomb wheels

[@arrow1414]

Its funny, I just got the Meepo version of those 105mm honeycomb wheels and got the exact opposite impression. I was on standard Meepo 100mm wheels that came with the now discountinued NLS PRO and recently got their 105 upgrade kit. I found them *more* comfortable on rough streets, less squirrelly on sidewalk gratings and those pimply miniramps at sidewalk corners. On the old 100mm it was often like hitting a patch of ice riding over them. Not so much with the 105mm honeycombs. I still won't hit them at very high speed but I am hitting them faster than before without the board "fishtailing" (or "fishy-tailing" as you Aussies say). They are louder on perfectly smooth indoor floor like surfaces than the bald 100m "slicks", but on smooth asphalt/tarmac you don't noticed it audibly or by any vibration through the feet. Oh well, to each his own. I am very pleased with them and consider them a taste of the real cloud wheels I intend to get early next year.

Awesome review. I’m getting one. They look really nice especially for me as intermediate but also my friends that are new , they can ride it

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

100% can’t wait to hear your thoughts !!!

[@koibold]

Solid review. Just got mine with 90mm wheels. First time ever riding any type of longboard and I was able to get the hang of it within an hour or so. Could max out the 2nd speed level within the first couple of miles, but it was defintely wobbly at times on me. Seems to be a great beginner board so far for learning.

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Awesome to hear !! Keep practicing and those wobbles will go away

[@shobushogun2405]

You can try tightening your trucks and putting more weight on the front of your board to reduce the wobbles

[@SimonSaysCanada]

I put the Honeycombs on the 2S Pro - I lost a bit of range (I am heavier than thou!) but the asphalt around my winter-striken Canadian city is so criss-crossed with cracks and potholes that the honeycombs (or Cloudwheel Donuts for that matter) have been a total life-saver for me. Much smoother ride, much safer - but we don't have those little "pegs" coming out of the sidewalks at every stoplight like you have down under. But yeah, this board needs more battery. Cool video Scott!

[@Richardisonline]

Awesome review... just purchased a Wowgo 2S Max skateboard and eager to take it for a test run... your skateboard review videos are amazing !!!

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Thanks mate, and congratulations on your new board. You’ll love it !!

[@ohbeastin5010]

I want a beginner board and wanna spend $500 or less. I was looking at this and the wowgo 3 as it is more flexible. What other board should I look at as well as should I spend the 399 on the wowgo 3 or 480 on this board or another.

[@Oxydado]

Great content and relatable opinions. It is definitely a beginner board with the underpowered motors and tiny battery. Gives everyone something to start out on though. Room to grow for a newbie, or maybe just someone with a short commute, because that battery will definitely charge fast while at work…

[@thebishop74]

My experience with Wowgo and my 2S Pro has soured me a bit... The max seems to be addressing a bunch of issues with the Pro, and I've not been able to ride mine in months. A heap of Pro owners were contacted and told not to use their existing battery due to "issues" when the battery gets low, added problem for me being I was contacted like 4 times plus, yet after months I still don't have the replacement battery. Pre this issue, I had a charger failure, which they dealt with well on a fairly quick replacement, but I also had a power on issue. Turn power issue turned out to be the motor wire routing in the ESC case/cover, one of my motor wires runs right across the back wires of the power switch, it had rubbed against one of the power signal wires and broke the solder joint. While they did also send me a replacement power switch with the power supply, I ended up just re soldering the wire, cause 10mins repair vs replacing the switch. But, it's been a frustrating first board experience. Other issues, the stock bushes really are too soft even for a 70-80kg rider, and the rear motor sleeves seem to wear rather fast, 200kms on my rear wheels and they have quite a lot of chips and wear on them...

[@wowgoboard]

Hi. Let me know your email please. I'll check the delivery of the replacement battery. Sorry for the inconvenience we caused.

[@The2kust]

Hello, Nice video brotherman! Im lookin for my first e-board to buy but its so many to choose between its overwhelming. I think wowgo 2s max would be a good board to start with. (lookin for something less then 500$) What do you recommend, Should i go with the regular wheels or these bigger once you tried in the video ? We have bad roads here with rough asphalt, and now and then there is some gravel roads i need to ride on. I thought those bigger wheels would be better for rough asphalt, but that dosent seem to be the case or what do you think ?

[@wa_state_wonder9604]

Great style of review at the end, sums it up well. I have two questions. Is one able to get 105mm cloudwheels for the 2s max? My other question is what are your thoughts between the meepo v4 ER and the wowgo 2s max? I've been head over heels deciding between the two and I can't make up my mind. Keep up the great reviews!

[@nakoov04]

Same! What did u choose?

[@wa_state_wonder9604]

@@nakoov04 I’m pretty set on the wowgo 2s max right now. I figured the 105mm wheels make the $599 price more worth it, even if they aren’t cloudwheels. Pretty much chose comfort and wheels over range and agility.

[@nakoov04]

@@wa_state_wonder9604 probably will do the same

[@jay12336]

hey if you could what Board is the better option the wowgo 2s max or the meepo shuffle v4s i am just having a hard time see what Board is better thx.

[@user-sn9od2cy4v]

Completely agree to the review. It's so strange that the board with "MAX" in the naming has super small 12s2p 5Ah battery. I was expecting at least 15Ah from this board (12s3p 21700)

[@Jskarekr0wT]

It's a 500$ board. There's no way you'll get 15Ah.

[@STXRS253]

Hej! Great video? Which one do you think is better? Wogo 2s Max or Veymax cejour? And why? As i can see they very simular to eachother but the Veymax is more waterproof. What du you think?

[@dman1848]

Wowgo would have to be my favourite eskate brand atm. I bought the Wowgo AT2 with cloud wheels after Scotties review. Its a solid performer. Much better than the Exway X1 Pro I had before that. The Exway X1 Pro was a good board but the range for me was nowhere near their estimated range. Sort of half that and the battery sag was woefull. Performed well from say 70 to 100% but under that and the boards performance really started to deteriorate. I found the Wowgo AT2'S overall battery sag, peformance didnt get that so much and there was no battery range anxiety for me. I was constantly having to look at my battery % on the Exway for fear I wouldnt make it home.

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

They are making some beautiful boards !!

[@dman1848]

All Wowgo Boards seem to have good bang for your buck imo. They priced sort of in the middle somewhere compared to other brands. The Wowgo AT2 was perfect for me. I dont care too much for top speed. Id rather rider comfort, range and hill climbing ability and the AT2 has it in spades. Cant wait for Wowgo to have another go at making a All Terrain Board

[@danielsilva2481]

I don’t know if I should get this or the wowgo 3! Please help, the wowgo 3 is normally $520 which is more than the 2s max but it is on sale for $399! Which one do you prefer??

[@hschokker86]

Nice video as always. Wowgo is a bit sneaky though. My 2s pro didn’t go over 37 kph even when freewheeling. After a lot of discussion they send me a replacement esc. The replacement one is 15A rated while the original one is for 12,5A. Replaced it and should be good for 42 kph now. (Didn’t test outside yet due to weather)

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

So that’s quite interesting 🤔 Keep me posted on your findings

[@iGobyy]

i was just about to get these wheels. u reckon the cw 105 better? or even the 120?

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

100% the 105s CW are better these feel like a check knock off

[@iGobyy]

@@scottdaviesyoutube Yeah so i'm on their website. But i dont see options 105 donut for wowgo 2s max. But it says "Knight Hub" under the 105 hub. Does the wowgo 2s max use knight hub?

[@TLCampbell24]

I have no idea how what kind of "bushings" the Wowgo 3 has. Are they good enough to keep wobbling to a minimum with 90MM wheels at 20-24 MPH?

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

All Wowgo bushings are nice, they supply on the harder range as to help people learn and no get wobbles

[@Vladi_Pisarski]

Scotty Another Great Review of a really cool board. But my question is mostly related to something different than boards... Where did you made your hat? :D

Hello i know im a little to the party i know i must do my own research and i will but on roods like mine with small cracks often would the 105 wheels be ok?

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Yes 100% my only real complaint is the noise and rattle on cobblestones As for small cracks the 105s will do a good job to smooth out a little Cheers Scott

[@charlieblume448]

@@scottdaviesyoutube Thank you!!

[@TLCampbell24]

My last experience skateboarding was a few times when I was a kid many years ago. I have no experience on an electric skateboard. I'm torn between the Wowgo 3 and Wowgo 2S Max. Which should I get if I'm mostly interested in using it for smooth rides on paved roads. I doubt I'll be too interested in carving. Hopefully, I'll be disciplined enough to not let myself go faster than 20 MPH.

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Hi mate, the 3 was very popular, but the 2SMax does have the new tech, new cells new esc and upgraded trucks motors, Personally I’d pick the max. Use my code for a small discount as well. Scott5 and if you use this link it tells Wowgo my video helped your decision!! wowgoboard.com/?aff=7

[@ItsTheDark]

Hi Scott, thanks for the quality review. I just purchased a 2s max with the honeycombs, and am wondering if I made a mistake in getting the honeycombs. If comfort is the goal, would you recommend I get the 120mm cloudwheel donuts instead?

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

If your ok with a little less pick up or less hill climb, yes look at the 120 or even better the 105s cloudwheels

[@ItsTheDark]

@@scottdaviesyoutube Thanks for the response. How significant are the differences between the 120 and 105? What makes you say go with the 105s?

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

The 105s will still give ok torque and braking, but more importantly less chances of wheel bite, Yea the 105s are fantastic they are my favourite wheel (cloudwheel)

[@esk8jaimes]

Comparing the standard street wheels to the 105mm ones, would you considering them to be better on vibration? Obviously, the 120mm ones will be the best on bumps.

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Hi James, Yes but only by a tiny bit, its really just a big urethane wheel,

[@hanshans618]

Can i use it without power? just like simple skateboard

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Yep sure can, the hubs have very little resistance

[@theotb9737]

do you think it would be worth upgrading from the Wowgo 3? thanks!

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Depends, Really the only point of difference is the stiffer deck and the 12S battery is your 3X is going well I don’t see the need for a upgrade.

[@theotb9737]

@@scottdaviesyoutube thank you!!

[@stryed3483]

I've been researching electric skateboards intensively for 2 weeks now. Not sure if to get a mini or something bigger. Looking into the tynees but belts do have their problems in terms of upkeep. It's not popular here so can't really test anything out in France. Also, the evolving tech is soo fast paced! Glad there are youtubers like you to keep us updated. Maybe a tiny overview of the market could be neat for newcomers (prices, tech, etc...). There only not many of those type of videos.

[@theotb9737]

great video!!!

[@LaLiam0608]

Hey Scott, Brissy fan here. Wondering about your thoughts between this and the Meepo V4 shuffle for my first board. Im familiar with regular longboards for cruising. Both seem like good options but im mostly wondering about the comfot of each deck (concave on v4 versus flatter on 2s max) Wish there was somewhere in Brisbane that would allow test rides of the two.

[@devingriffin4988]

Bro I ordered mine a mounth ago and it has still not come in yet

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Unfortunately it can take time to deliver. 4-6 weeks is not unheard off, plus you had Xmas right in the middle there Wowgo is one of the biggest esk8 brands out there so don’t worry it will show up, it will just be stuck in transit somewhere, Pm me your order number and I’ll ask my contact at Wowgo to investigate

[@MoomieVRC]

Uhhh... I purchased a brand new 2S Pro before the Max came out and it has that grip tape design... so I don't know how they are classifying it as "new design." Unless, there is something extra special about mine being the Poseidon version.

[@christianmarmol3230]

Is this a flexy deck or a stiff board ?

STIFF for sure At my weight I get a tiny flex but very little

Yea that is weird if they say flex it’s wrong, I’d say on a scale of 1 (X1 Exway to 10 (G3 backfire) it’s a 3

[@ttkuratani]

That's a nice beginner board! Tiny battery for my taste, though.

[@laprizzle7587]

So maybe saving the $100 and just getting this board with the standard 90mm wheels would be the better decision

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

I have think so, Just not a fan

[@theJACKSON10]

The only thing I would add is... Scott's a pretty experienced rider.. As a complete beginner I found the larger wheels (I went with 120cloudwheels) helped a heap with confidence going over pavement cracks and those horrible orange payment raised bump bits that brissie is covered in Scott will know the ones I mean :p Maybe as I get better I'll try the 90s again...im still on speed mode 1 :)

[@Allebaggen1]

I like your videos but in your SWOT-analysis you never mention any of the competitors in threats which should be included imo.. Specially since you test so many of them and can compare. That would make it a lot easier for us viewers to really know which board is better then the other (or which one you prefer) in the same price category. Now its more like you only promote all the boards that you test (so they can link the video on there website).. Nice video anyway 👍

[@scottdaviesyoutube]

Hey, it’s a good point but a threat has always been about Safety. Not competition. I’ve been thinking of bringing in a over all score system maybe that will help. Price Ride feel Power Range Customer service Thoughts ?

[@Allebaggen1]

@@scottdaviesyoutube Ye that would probably be a good idea but since there are a lot of new boards coming all the time now, the score will eventually get outdated.. I would be more happy with upp to date comparison which one that is the best board to buy (in different price category and long-/short-/AT- board etc)
