Awesome, been waiting for this one!
Dam bruh your riding in this 👌 sick keep it up can’t wait to ride this board
What a difference with the softer bushings! Great idea/solution
Ayyy meepnasty is back with some razzle dazzle 🎉 them dad bods are so nice 👍🏻
Love it bro. Keep it up! 🔥
Great video bro👍! Still keep my BC 3 😁
Nice review dude. looks like a weapon with dadbod wheels
When it comes to bushings for TKPs, I ride 88a Krank barrel/cone front and 90a barrel/cone rear. I am 180lb with my gear.
I ride 300 plus cutting corners. Shits crazy
Beast 💯
Great to see you back on deck Fred . Great video. Out of this board and ownboard bamboo at pro which would be your pick?
Have a good Christmas🎄.
Nice vid. ❤
Fredddiieeee, Que Pasa Wuey! Lol. Great detailed Video this board seams to be fore and well builded, I haven liked stock boards in a while this one got my eye, one thing I noticed is that both Vattery spec logos read 2 Different WH and they both wrong if they really using p42 cells. Real specs for the set up is 16.8 AH = Capacity, and 725.76WH. = Energy To be exact, kicking 180 Amps wich is Amazing for that pack. Your #1 UK Fan told me to say this ooops. He Also wants you to know he's watching your Videos but can't comment cause his keyboard is Broken after his Yellow helmet fell on it. But he Loves you tons and wish to Ride Like you when he Grows up. And 😘 on his Behalf. Stay safe Brotha🙏🏽😜
Nice review. A lot of board for the money....seems board prices in the US are much better than in Europe as well.
Hear drive with the tubeless tires would be sick
That intro beat is nasty !
Thank you
Probably buying this with bamboo, tkp and belt drive. Currently stuck between the tubeless 165 or the cyclone racing wheels. What would you choose? I am also buying the cyclone 110s as a spare/test
Yea buddy I wanna see them future tubeless in action I heard they weren't great and I'd like your opinion
I got my Bamboo Hurricane and after reading so many reviews that the stock bushings feel terrible to turn and carve, I can see what they meant. Bought some 90a Independant bushings so carves should feel better.
The best visuals the best audio. Just “the best”
Great video! Quick questions: how did you change the wheel diameter settings in the remote controller? What is wheel speed setting for 7 inches?
Hey there, great review. I am looking to get one but i like going fast around 25-30 mph. is the bambo deck stable at high speeds? Please let me know
I agree with you, Dual King Pin all the way, and a good set of Rip Tides.
I really want to get this freaking board this spring or summer but having a hard time choosing between the carbon deck and the bamboo. Ive always wanted a carbon deck since my two other board are bamboo and love the black look of the carbon. What would be the benefits and negatives of the carbon deck ?
Looks ace.
Really interested in the dad bods. Is there a review in the works ??
yep 🤘🏼
Curious to hear which of the flexable decks are the most fun to carve on? I know you've previously said the black carve is your favorite but a few new decks have come out since then with the flexi decks.
+1
What’s up with the rear light? What is it? How’s it mounted?
I would love to see the Ultra set up with gear drive and the tubeless tires. I believe the tubeless wheelset is a game changer.
Hello, I have Hurricane but Meppo wheels sucked so I bougth Rovers 165, but I would like to try good pneu wheels can you please tell me what wheels should I buy for Meepo Hurricane?
For the bushings; did you replace the road side as well? Or are those stock and you only changed the board side ones?
i rarely do both bushings in each truck. if one of the trucks have a cone which will be the road side, i would only change the board side then. but if theres no cone, and its two barrels, i just switch the one road side bushing
So the meepi deck is wider than the tynee explorer 😮
I thought the Ultra meant that it had a gear drive. This looks like its belt driven?
Got the hurricane ultra belt driven version to ride these dad bods, do you need different gears/belts? What did you set it up with? Appreciate the help
send me a DM on instagram. im happy to help ya!
Does the Metroboard 153mm tires fit on the rim’s that Meepo gives you on there 175mm rim’s ? Did you have to buy new rim’s when you put on the Metroboard 153mm tire’s ?
they fit the 175mm meepo rims! these are actually them!
Dam bruh the footage is sick you sure you injured
Hi
Tynee explorer vs ninja?
Been a longboarder my whole life. I ride the same sector nine for 15 years.
You think an offroad style or a meepo v5 would be a fun board?
Pure curious
always always alwaysss prefer a 2 in1 board. especially since ur a longtime thane rider. evolve gtr, hadean, propel pivot , tynee explorer , b-one titan x, ownboard zeus pro.. all my 2 in1 choices. u can choose hundreds of different wheels from a 85mm orangatang all the way up to a 8” tire. n everything in between. its like having 65 boards in 1. meepo hurricane is a solid board but i cant recommend them anymore due to there customer service unfortunately .
wow the bolted motor cable , thats finesse ... not like the evolve one, those cables?? sucks
this vs the Wowgo AT2 plus?
at+ is incredibly outdated. the meepo has much more performance and a little more battery too. u also have more convave and width with this deck and the choice of dkp or tkp.
When you changed to the smaller tires, did you need to change the belt size? I want to put 150mm hotas on a hurricane bamboo. Thanks.
that depends. are u switchen hubs/pullies?
@@esk8unity no just tires
@@prycemonger no just change the tires itself. keep stock belts
Would you choose this over the back for hammer sledge
i personally would yes. more power and speed. Also the hammer sledge has a VERY flexy deck. bit too flexy for me
This board is surprisingly impressive - I still have Meepo in my head as "that cheap & nasty boosted knock off" - I haven't really made the leap to them now being a cheap Evolve knock off.
Wouldn’t call it cheap whatsoever as it destroys every board you just named in distance, speed, and power. Would also go as far as saying quality is better, I’ve ridden my Meepo hurricane in every condition and elevation possible in the USA and it is still maintaining the same power and durability after over 1k miles👀
@@louisdelcore6772
I've met people that are incredibly harsh to their boards. Who have 1800-2000 miles on hurricane and it's still going just fine
BELT Drive with the Tubeless Tires. Gears drives are neat but not customizable.
😢I wanted this board so bad. Now I have to wait for money.
Which one do you think has more flex? The bamboo hurricane or tynee explorer?
id say hurricane. but not by much. the explorer deck is VERY narrow. im a size 9 and my feet were hangin off the edges. and the exolorer doesnt even come close to this boards performance
@@esk8unity yeah watching your review tynee definitely a slug compared to the hurricane but aiden emailed me that they will have a upgraded esc that has 90a continuous. I guess i wasnt the only one that was bummed out by the power lol i got a 45t kegel to compensate the torque for now but hopefully this new esc brings the tynee to life.
@@esk8unity so i got the zeus pro 3k matte p42a coming in 4weeks to feed my need for speed in the mean time. :)
@@esk8unity Fred, I know you don't like the Explorer but I haven't followed your piece of advice and got it some weeks ago after watching all the great reviews and positive feebacks. And I think it's a GREAT board. I LOVE it. My feet are slightly longer than yours, well no problem with the width of the deck...Scott Davies has sent me photos of him on the deck, he tells me has has no problem either (feet size 11...) and that the board is ultra comfortable. Moreover it's in his personnal top 2 boards.
Great reviews everywhere, every famous youtuber praises the Explorer...well I don't really understand your point of view. Such a skilled rider like you should not have any problem with a narrower (but not too narrower) deck. I don't think the problem is here.
Yes, the torque is not the most impressive but is average, but the braking is veryyy powerful. Especially settled at 100%, hard not to fall.
Was jamming ride 1 up slopestyle..till the crackhead in the hood jacked my sh#t. I'm thinking this is it. WaS looking at euc. How's this board holding up? Thx..regards..uriel
what??. 😂
Maybe DKP trucks would suit this board. 🤔
It really depends what you want and what parts you are using on the board. For example, the Meepo tubeless tires add so much stability that they are wicked fun on DKPs. On the other hand, I prefer to ride urethane on TKPs since the trucks are inherently more stable and do not overwhelm the grip the wheels have.
@@fujio001agree. But dkp and pu wheels is kinda fun too. But yes, can be dangerous with hard carving/speed
What size belts work with set up 5-250 and 5-255?
32T pullies
Is the gear drive + tubeless worth the extra 💵?
i havent tried em yet. but i will always prefer belt compared to my omni gear drive. I also prefer smaller tires, but we all have different preferences
Love my hurricane ultra bamboo. No denying though my dads Hadean feels that little bit more premium. The acceleration of the Hadean is also insane, the hurricane is only a little quicker from about 15mph onwards. Both amazing boards, but the meepo is lacking in some areas. Some things very simple like not having a battery percentage, or a decent higher quality remote. I think meepo need to start giving more premium remotes with their premium line of boards, along with the ability to adjust power curves and check battery stats like the Hadean does.
100% agree
35 pounds damm that’s a heavy board!
For a woman
I cant believw i bought this for $756.
40mile usage but it was 2in1 also lol
Tynee Explorer will match it i think.
unfortunately it didnt even come close.. the tynee couldnt even keep up w/ the hadean in a 15mph pull. and the hadean loses to the hurricane with speed. i have a video of it
Yeah the explorer esc isnt for speed at all but aiden is coming out with and esc upgrade in march so hopefully that fixes the sluggish explorer lol
@@daflip1500 niceee! im excited for that 👍🏼
Nope not even close, thats like puttin a honda civic against a ferrari.
@@daflip1500 Scott had it shipped to him recently, I forget where the hurricane esc is now but the explorer is bumping up to 90a from 60a
fast enough the best vid quality is 360p xD
ya unfortunately youtube always does that the first 30 min or so
I've just checked Hadean board builder. Man, it's a joke compared to Hurricane Ultra options...
well the hadean has Wayyyy more options to choose from. 3 different color AT tires. 3 different types of AT tires… over a dozen colors of street wheels and also 3 different typed of street wheels with 5 different durometers. 2 decks. 2 different wheel hub options. 9 different wheel hub color options, 2 different AT pully sizes for AT, 2 different pully sizes for street, 2 different series, and of course 2 in 1 options.. so evolve has MORE. but, u might value the truck options meepo has too offer and there different wheel styles and there 2 different drive trains. which is cool. i respect that. awesome value. like i mentioned, esk8 community has so many different options and we all have our different preferences of what we want as riders. thats a good thing 🤘🏼🤙🏼💯
@@esk8unity You're right all the way. Especially when you talk about value. Really, who cares about the color of the wheels ? If you really want some wheels, you will get them whatever is their color even if there is no color choice.
Bamboo or carbon, same choice here, except that you have a different deck design that comes with the Hurricane Ultra Carbon. Same deck with the Hadean Carbon.
Battery : you have an icon to click onto in the Hadean builder, but it leaves you no choice, only one to get, so what use ? Same thing with the remote, no choice, so why put an icon for that ?
AT tyres : all 7 inch for Hadean. The ones that you love less because you like smaller ones.
Street wheels ? Yes. I personnally prefer the choice between Meepo Cyclone 165 inflatable wheels and 165s tubeless wheels. Just personal preference.
Hubs : again just the color changes...just gimmick. No real value.
Most Evolve options (not all, of course the choice of the deck is important) you are talking about are pure gimmick.
With Meepo : choice between tkp and dkp and between belt-drive or gear-drive has MUCH MOOORE value.
But as you say, we all have our different preferences of what we want as riders. So why not if some of us prefer Hadean builder because there are more colors to chose from...
@@fred4794 u keep sayin what u prefer yet determine what “value” means for others… everyone values different things. i dont value wider tires, but im sure some people do. and i respect it.. i value internal lights with a military grade remote and on cell diagnostic system of cells inside the remote. but some people may not.. i value a app that allows u to update your softeare whenever the company has a update.. but some others may not. u gotta respect others people values.. when ur asking about other choices not being available like the battery and remote, its because they used to have 2 different battery sizes to choose from and 2 different remotes as well. i never said there was more choices there. so why is that apart of the discussion ? they have 2 types of 7 inch. street tred and knobbie.. then they have a few color wheels as well. some people love that. if j dont, its all good. but respect it. not a “gimmick”.. what i think is a gimmick is spending over $1200 on a product and something malfunctions, and the company doesnt even respond to ya. thats a gimmick. if u personally prefer meepo wheels instead of other street wheels thats totally cool and i respect it. im glad that builder has a lot of value for ya. kinda what the channel is all about ..
@@esk8unity Just a matter of substance and form. Some will prefer form over substance and some substance over form.
But you can't deny one thing : the color choice is form ; the choice between tkp/dkp and bekt-drive/gear-drive is substance.
@@fred4794 agreed. i personally think gear drive choice has much to offer.. now that i have more experience with gear . it clanks and chunks around while rolling slow and u can feel it in ur feet. If u tighten the wheel bolt the slightest too much, it will strain the motors which will eat ur range extremely fast, most gear drives cannot do 2 in 1 , which is a massive deal breaker for me. that takes away literally half the fun of esk8. and they dont have any perfomance benefits. Only thing i see thats a benefit is no belt snaps when going off roading . However, it seems (i could be wrong) a pebble could get into the entry part of the wheel part which leads to the gears… so substance /form i dont really agree with.. tkp /dkp choice is definitely cool. however im a rider that can adapt to either or. i love them both and can utilize them both for all riding styles.. i can do high speeds with dkp and slides and aggressive carves. some dont like dkp for high speed. im fine with it. then some dont like tkp for carves and slides, when im fine with it. so choice of tkp/dkp is definitely cool. but i value the features evolve has to offer way more. also there usa customer service . lastly, the wheel choices to me is also a very big deal. so many different styles and preferences. also there bushing kits are very good too 👍🏼👍🏼💯💯🤘🏼🤘🏼
