    ⚡🤩 *Openin is Cinematic AF!* 🤩⚡
    My balls are not big enough to ride these super torquey boards 😂 but they are awesome feats of engineerin, so well crafted.
    Awesome comparison. Kaly suits me most but I expected to BioBoards to come top in performance, the Don of the Daddy's... until I hears 16S, with the other two bein 18S.
    I can see why dude is called Carvela, awesome carvin style. 🤙🏼
    That Bioboards kingpin is comicalky long though 😂 what possessed them to make it that long lol. I geek out over trucks so that stood out.
    That Kaly though one nut gives you all the fun you need 😂
    This real world rider experience of usin and maintain these boards is crucial info, not always covered by some others, kudos to ya, stuff like this matters as much as ride feel! 👏🏼👏🏼
    I thought that BioBoards charger was a video cassette from the 90s 😂 I like it.
    Loved the summary at the end bruv! You kept it 100! 👏🏼👏🏼
    Thoroughly enjoyed this 🤙🏼

    Great review, overall pretty complete, but I’m surprised that trucks/suspension/carving wasn’t a category, plus none of that was talked about much. Would love to know what you think about the riding itself. Perhaps a follow up video for a long term test - get all of them to a couple hundred miles and report back. Bioboard was already my dream board and this solidified it. Great test, and enjoy those things!

    Love the vid bro. I could get a Lacroix but I’m happy having two of the three. The Plutonium is impressive across the board for its weight and size, a lot of power. For range rides, I’d probably take the Kaly. You should pick up the new charger from Bioboards. It almost fits right in my pocket. That’s coming for sure on all future rides.

    10:35 Totally agree on that point! 👍
    Absolutely bad construction. That's the main reason why i switched to E-toxx adapters and E-toxx V3 hubs on my Naz SS.
    13:27 Yep definitely! I have to agree with you here too. They're nice and look cool, but they're hell when it comes to maintenance.
    18:06 In this regard, I had the same experiences as you when we installed the Davega on my Lacroix. Screwing the enclosure back onto the deck is the pain in the ass 🙈.
    In general, the Lacroix has a very complex maintenance process. For example, I have to tighten ALL the deck screws after every ride because they always come loose easily. This seems to be a general problem at Lacroix.
    Despite the criticisms, I still love my Falcon Nazare SS! I love the power, torque and speed of this beautiful machine.
    Nice video btw. A very fair comparison. The Bioboard completely deserved to win. Stay safe! 🤙

    Bioboard Plutonium AT 4x4 1.5 has certainly been one of my goto reliable workhorse boards. WIth POM gears it is a near silent weapon of choice. It absolutely hauls ass . Fastest of all my builds. After i designed and machined my own ultra wide hubs and fitted some trampa Golfa tyres it became super wide and super sticky , increased stability made a huge difference at higher speed carving.

    As someone who has owned the Kaly XLR and the Lacroix SS, the Lacroix is COMPLETE GARBAGE. Everything on the Lacroix has failed, broken or stopped working. I've gone through three Stormcores, two sets of Falcon drives, three motors, front lights, screws fall out or rip out of the battery enclosure, the battery enclosure itself has snapped on almost every screw hole and lastly... can't properly balance the wheels no matter what I've tried. The owner is a massive egomaniac and refuses to take any responsibility for the garbage he releases. I'm truly shocked he hasn't been sued into oblivion. Stay AWAY from Lacroix. Their boards put me in the hospital.

    That board that you claim is number one? Your toes and your heel is hanging off the board when you’re riding it. The board is too narrow. I’m sick of narrow boards. The Lacroix is a dream board because you’re standing “in “ the board and there is still some board left, that’s how a board should be made .you go Thousands of miles for thousands of dollars going 50 mph with parts of your feet hanging off the board exposed to the street on other boards I mean come on. The width of the board alone should’ve made the LeCroix the top dog . I don’t know why designers have made so many boards so skinny they all should be at least 19 inches wide so some of you blokes can fit your busted biscuits on it properly and safely. It’s hard enough balancing at high speeds on the board but then you’re doing it on a motorized beam of wood ? It should be a platform not a beam.

    I still have my 2021 Nazaré Supersport with the gen 1 falcon drives. Modified with a Davega X, E-toxx adapters, E-toxx anti sink plates and E-toxx V3 offset hubs. I was thinking about selling it this season because I'm now more into performance scooters and EUC's and the board hasn't been used that much this season.
    However, when I recently took another ride with the Nazaré Supersport, I was immediately annoyed by myself that I was even thinking about selling it 🤣. This board is a dream and it's still a blast to ride! There's just way too much money, time and work put into this board for me to ever sell it.
