A cool feature I figured out accidentally (yes I threw myself on the ground rather quickly 😅) is if you hit the power button twice quickly, it puts the motors in reverse.

Hey, quick question. What region do you live in because it looks beautiful and I would love to know where that is. Thanks!

[@nat2r]

The boosted controller and board should turn it off if you pull the wheel back and hold the power button down

[@MichaelSuperbacker]

New subscriber, just found your channel 👍

[@MorganBennett]

That would be my Christmas gift

[@DavesAcritic]

Thanks for the review. I bought a long board with belt motors and found wheeling it around handy but it's still heavy and too big to put in a backpack. Thinking of getting a mini kick board with hub motors that apparently roll easier unpowered than belt driven so you can ride it empty. Downsides with a mini?

[@chrissy.v]

Would recommend the exway wave

[@ghick9427]

I loved my meepo mini just get the xr..cloud wheels are a good idea

[@ghick9427]

You can carry them easier..there better plenty big also

[@jamesbankston3491]

Can u hook it up with it when it's almost dead need it to use like wheelchair

[@burieddeepbetween]

BE WARNED! The hub style motor boards with tiny sleeves are super hard on your ankles and feet unless the surface conditions are perfect! Sidewalk with cracks in it? Rough bitumen? That are both pretty much the norm everywhere in the world? You need a belt motor board with some cushy wheels. So many hub motor boards are flooding the secondhand market because people learn this really quickly when it comes to real world stuff!

[@wizdum4957]

Great point. Thanks for sharing

[@jarenventures]

So… belt drive is better? What do you think about ownboard w2

[@MrMini500]

So useful thanks for the video!

[@josephdd3873]

very nice review,am totally planning on getting this long board i am going to find it even cheaper with Black Friday and Honey

Thanks Emmett, appreciate the input on the board!

[@tomyjohnston6794]

Just so people know I got a cheap Chinese board with dual hub motors it's acceleration was crazy and it was very fast but the battery shat itself after not that long

[@emmettshort]

Thank you. Great comment. This is how it’s done people!

[@RedMcc]

Best Eboard for price, distance and speed is Onsra BC2, BC3. Its not even close. I have alot of brands and you cant beat it in my opinion. After riding the Onsra. I dumped my Backfire. Biggest reaaon ws terrible distance. In Seattle there is 15.25 mile group ride evey Saturday night during Spring/ Summer and the folks with Backfire couldnt finish the ride. Onsra had loads of charge left.

[@amirabrown9643]

3:23 I shouldn’t have laughed at that part but it was funny 😂

[@GrandmasterUV]

This is really nice quality man great cameras

[@tacosaurus7642]

If you wanted something that has an awesome variety you should check out something with like belt drive. If you get something like the backfire zelot it's basically gonna feel like right and on a cloud in comparison

[@varkadegames]

Your video was helpful. 👍✌️

[@soraisfinallyhere1305]

Is it good for carving?

[@emmettshort]

Yep it’s great

[@coinsofgold]

Love the venue and photography

[@sparkymarky211]

Atom has some good electric boards, so for anyone looking for one, that's a good place to check

[@dnavas7719]

Total noob at skateboards. question. what happens after the battery fully drains? you can no longer use it until recharge?

[@donutflips4394]

take a look at a meepo voyager if your looking for the best electric skateboard under 1k, power, speed, range, it's unmatched by anything under 1.5k including evolves,boosted,wowgo at, and others, for reference i have over 5k miles on pevs and have ridden quite a few of board on the market , including going trough 9 different boards myself, anyway check it out, dont think youd be displeased! great video keep it up 👍

[@robbieschweigert2700]

Belt drive is way better than hub motors. I’ve had two boards with hubs break. On one the wheel got jammed and won’t move. On the second the hub motor fell off when I was riding. Belt drive can handle big cracks in the road that destroy hub motors

[@stpierreorama]

They both have their pros and cons. I've had this board for a while now and have had no issues going over rough and patched up roads with the stock PU wheels. Hubs have no rolling resistance if you board dies it's not useless like a belt drive and has more clearance under the rear truck. Going over large pebbles and rocks you can easily scratch your belt housing and belts with belt drive. For people who aren't e-board fanatics and jus want a simple affordable ride hubs are great. Obviously belts have their advantages lik greater torque and wheel options but they are also more expensive and require more maintenance and are loud AF. Both hub and belt drive have their place. One is not definitively better than the other

[@jarenventures]

@@stpierreorama wait so I’m so confused. I’m new to these so idk if belt or hub r better. I just want a rlly durable one

[@stpierreorama]

@@jarenventures hey if you're just starting out I would personally recommend either Wowgo 2S Max or Meepo V4S. Those are both reputable brands and high quality offerings with plenty of power for most riders. They will both go at least 25+mph and if anything happens to the hubs they are very cheap to replace and their is no maintenance like a belt driven board. Also hubs have no rolling resistance so you can use them like regular long boards. More than anything I would suggest doing your own research and seeing what is the best fit for your needs. There are plenty of videos and articles comparing the two drive trains

[@jarenventures]

@@stpierreorama gotcha.. i just need something that can last rlly long and is safe and easy to turn. I honestly was looking at the ownboard w2! do yk anything about that.

[@stpierreorama]

@@jarenventures that's a very nice board but I don't think it's worth the additional price over Meepo VS4 or Wowgo 2S max. You will get the same top speed from those two boards for less money and meepo in particular has great torque and acceleration which is what people with belt drives want. Wowgo will not be as aggressive in accelerating but I think is better for beginners since it's much smoother and gradual in acceleration and also has a nicer remote. The VS4 however has a really nice deck, I personally love aggressive concave and will be on par with ownboard W2 in speed and acceleration for $200 less the meepo VS4 is the best value(just wait until there is a sale they happen all the time). My main turn off wit ownboard W2 is the deck looks really flat, from experience I prefer a nice concave that keeps you locked in. I really like the green wheels though but that should be last of your concern. If you're really set on a belt drive I would personally go with Tynee Board Ultra. Its the same style of board as ownboard W2 but better battery for less $$. And you can always swap the wheels out with green ones. One of the best advantages of belt drive is unlimited wheel options. -Meepo VS4(wait for a sale)best value -Wowgo 2S max best for beginners, it will give you confidence and make you feel comfortable before steeping up to a greater powered board but this has plenty of power for most riders and doesn't leave me desiring more power by any means -Tynee board Ultra best entry level belt drive, less voltage sag and best battery options over Ownboard W2 Just know that no matter what board you get batteries will decay over time. You an expect 3-5 years life on average but then you can just replace it with a new one. Make sure to follow manufactures suggested storing methods to keep your battery from prematurely decaying. Usually for long term storage you keep it at 40-60% charge and charge it once a month or so I hope this helps you. Regardless of why I say go with what you feel is best and why gets you excited to ride. Dont worry too much about specs. They are all just minimal and marginal differences and aren't that drastic when riding. Any of these boards will be great options

[@dailychinese1396]

Thanks. I fell in love in it

[@thirdeyesurvivor3886]

The Lycaon GR has the same but slightly better better specs and is the same price and is also on sale for $30 cheaper or at least mine was.

[@lucidmoses]

If these where not ads you should include a rough surface test. Like cobble stone. If your using it to get around your going to hit bad patches of road.

[@emmettshort]

It’s not an ad. It’s def not an off-road board though. The OneWheel is much better for stuff like that. If you don’t wanna go really fast the OneWheel is the way to go

[@lucidmoses]

@@emmettshort Yes, You know that because you've used it. Just thinking it would be a good demo to do for the viewers to haven't used it. I wouldn't consider cobble stone, off road. Cobble is common in cities with bigger temperature changes.
