Appreciate the kind words! Design is certainly subjective!
Keep up the good work guys 💪 and don't listen the Mr Jeff junior (Chris) he doesn't know beauty when he sees it 😂
Ricky knows his sh*t! Real esk8ers will all agree with his words
Love my MBoards Endurance :D For me the most important things are RANGE, LOOKS, and COMFORT!
I think the Meepo Bamboo Hurricane Ninja comes with a GaN fast charger, and cyclone street wheels along with the 7" AT wheels, and a set of both dkp and tkp trucks. Its pretty decent bang for buck. Although I think the ESC may have been downgraded from 70A to 55Amps. Im curious if you guys will review the Propel Pivot GT. The Pivot reminds me of a more powerful OMW. It's also $999 usd currently. Glad you guys are back posting more. Long time subscriber, first time commenter!
Onsra in Europe pretty nice I think. Waterproof good battery pack. Thinking about the velar. On the expansive site with the velar but. Eu based is nice
Keep up the videos up mate .
Good job 👍
Simple and fun.
I live in California.
I only skate regular boards but I’m seeing more bloody eboards and I just wanted to do some research.
You are making me do research so I get a nice eboard .
Be safe and keep it up 👍
Best bang for buck is 1100 dollars for the meepo Hurricane Bamboo pro. Spec wise. Or wowgo at2 plus for 900.
Glad you guys are back
Great to see Ricky back. great video guys. Merry Christmas 🎅
First suggestion. Separate your board styles from street boards and off road boards. Your missing some companies here for sure. The radiant f1,...the Raith board out of Australia that broke the world record and M Boards has been super transparent and gone above and beyond to communicate with people even if you dont own their products
Best boosted board clone like the Tynee ultra, meepo nls, acedeck Stella, or an Exway Flex. Most of those should be a good option for completely new riders with a lower budget and belt drive instead of hubs Also, you guys should have mentioned which boards specifically from acedeck, but they are all really fast. Also I am surprised the tynee explorer wasn't on here. Also do you guys upload esk8 content anywhere else besides this channel?
Love Evolve and their heritage in eskate
Heck yeah! Back at it again. Miss ya'll
Great video! Really appreciate this recap.
14:31 I *really really really* wanted to hear what Jeff (Geoff? I'm sorry) had to say in this Best Brand for your Buck category... I am in a little lower price range so was hopeful for that category title but it's several years later so everything will work out just fine 🌻🐝 Thank you both. The entire video is educational for me and I appreciate the information.
Best All - terrain
Best Budget $800 below
Best surf style/minis
Best long range
Those are the ones I was looking for.
+1 surf style/minis. I'll never ride a long board, I get they are practical but they look stupid.
I need that kicktail.
This is a great real world informal as all hell and useful...
Of course there will be disagreement from the community but you guys did it well straight out and really quite funny to boot So thanks for the view...Your time spent and expense are not mentioned actually most riders may not even care or realize you guys are helping us whilst getting your hustle on...now that's fair play and respect to that. Cheers & Happy Holidays...wishing your two greater success than ever in the New Year 🎉.
These guys seem to be disconnected from the community…not “in the know” perhaps. Some of their points I did agree on….but for the most part their review seemed, well….average. The fact there was no honorable mentions for the innovation award shocked me and then to give it to exway…🤯. Maybe things are different in their part of the world, and I can respect that, but here in the states I think you’ll find most people would disagree with more than a few of these awards. On the plus side, I appreciate the shit out of this content and enjoy the different point of views and the banter back and forth. Give us esk8 guys something to talk about disagree with 😉
You are correct exway boards maybe in 2022 but definitely not 2023 they didn't have done anything this year
I have the omw board and its a great board!please do a review on omw board.
Backfire’s customer service is awesome. Quick, friendly, informative. I ride a Zealot S.
I am currently looking to buy my first all terrain eboard which is how i found you guys. Great video. I have been debating between meepo hurricane carbon, or evolve 2 in 1 bamboo/ carbon. After watching this video not sure if either are worth the money. Really disappointed to hear the evolve was not fast, as the website says it goes up to 31 mph and a 40 mile range.
I'm looking for speed (30mph or higher) with decent range to ride to work and back in the city, as well as being able to take it through trails when i head out of the city to the country. I have a budget so getting the 4 to 5 k boards is not an option at all. Does anyone have any suggestions? Or can anyone point me in the right direction? Seems everything i find is either not affordable, to slow, or does not have enough range to get me to work and back.
I've got a hadean and it does go over 30mph,as I do it regularly.But let me say as well anything over 25mph on a skateboard you know your travelling some.I very rarely feel I've got floor it(controller trigger pulled all the way in) as I'm going fast enough.You can't go wrong with a Hadean in my personal view,and what swung it for me with going with Evolve in the end was the ability to have service centres right here in the U.K,if your going to spend almost 2 grand on a board and something go's wrong and your not a hands on DIY'er with fixing things or replacement parts or the company your bought it from(probably in China) ask you to send it back to be fixed your talking big money.Import and export fees and all that crap.
Propel Pivot GT is currently on sale for 1099 USD. the range is great and the Speed is also great. if you're still lookin, would deffo recommend
I would love to see Ricky carry a board on his narrow tiny shoulders!
I have an Acedeck Nomad N1 Gear Drive and it's been a great board. The price was nice too.
Excellent video I agree with almost every pic have meepo hurricane and a gtr series 2, always riding my GTR but I will give it to my hurricane for off-road. M BOARDS new board looks amazing, it would be better with a little bit more flex
What about propel pivot gt bang for buck
I'm so hella confused choosing the meepo for worst bang for buck. You guys don't realize that the same specs on other boards are going to be 1600 when included shipping right? Not even talking about getting a fast charger and everything included.
exactly!!!
I love this concept
Boosted was the only board with belt drive at that time and the V2 was way better in quality than the Stealth.
Nice video! Other categories...? Top of head, but could be tricky, but how about categories for rider type: beginner, intermediate, advanced.. Category for motor type: belt, gear, direct. Category for use case: commuter, off-road, casual. Fun format and happy new year gents!
This is amazing. I dont think there are ranking or tierlist vidoes on esk8.
Innovation absolutely shouldn’t have gone to exway for 2023. They’ve done jack shit this last year. Backfire, acedeck, or even Tynee would’ve been much better choices due to their big releases and improvements. Agree with the other commenter that it feels like you guys are in your own bubble sometimes. Nothing wrong with exway but definitely not the pick.
Tend to agree, Evolve is objectively the worst board maker for your cash.
WE BACKKKKKK LETS GOO
VESTAR Osprey Carbon VS Evolve Hadean please :D
I like the Nomad also but the down angled back of the board is just not stylish to me, I know it has something to do with stability,but I just don't like it.I think the Acedeck Nyx z1 street is one of the best looking boards this year,At first I wasn't to fussed on the big battery box on the top of the deck but it's grown on me.
AceDeck is a good looking deck. Some of the short run Hadeans have been good looking. But I think the Backfire Zealot with the LED embedded in the bumper, all the way around the deck, although I would never buy one, is a very nice looking deck.
100% agree on Exway for innovation - they have so many options, add-ons, etc.
Agree Evolve on support - they have been excellent to me on several occasions. I do feel like they're the "Apple of eSkate" - they are expensive, lower specs but they work out of the box and just keep working. They are just good for casual eskaters.
Are Evolve the worst bang for buck? I mean.... you can ride it and it's not total garbage, so no - worst bang for buck would be any of the "Amazon" boards you can't even ride or are death traps. Those things are worthless, not just bad value - so that's worst bang for buck, technically. But it's hard to argue Evolve is good value for money - unless you say you're paying for support.
Finally, as for new categories, I'd consider "best board for a new rider / casual", because most people are; especially as you're doing this near Xmas. Best board for offroad? Best board for a commuter (someone who is using it for "last mile" type stuff - like riding public transport, etc).
What about Hoyt /metro/Apex/ your pics seems sponsored 🤔
I'm surprised you didn't give a shout-out for the Pivot Gt for bang for ur buck
So, the worst bang for our buck is Evolve, and Meepo-the Evolve clones. 🤕
Too bad that the best look is the lowest carbon board with street cloud wheels. But it's not the most fun way of driving or practical I think.
Best Street board and best off-road board
YES!!
what is with the meepo slander
They sell boards and offer no support. Shite customer service
@@averageeskatereviews true I guess I got lucky and never had to deal with them. But I def think meepo has some good bang for buck especially in their lower end boards
@@averageeskatereviews where have all the Sears gone. They set the standard for service and now when something breaks - I don't even get mad because they've made me feel like so many things are built to be disposable whether you like it or not. (Charge cords, earbuds, laptops.)
Anyways, thank you guys. Sometimes I learn more in the comments and it's always worth checking out what the top 5 or so posters have to say & to check out the exchanges.
✌️💛🛹🛹🛹
the hurricane has the thickest ugliest carbon deck, always quality issues, crap bushings, inferior trucks, no real support and pricy as well.
Old mate Ricky seems lost. maybe you need someone less emotionally driven when reviewing products objectively
WTF Evolved best support? ok story time poor this guy luke bought a evolved board it busted into Fire poor kid phone called them on his birthday week crying about his board they said to him sorry we won't help you as its 5 days passed it warranty, Zero Heart all money Evolved with the head twitchy guy earning 100k each year just to sell boards for the company he should go back to selling wine.
“The head twitchy guy”…..ahhhahahahhah🖤
Dude you rolling over on all of the topics you disagree with. Evolve is not bad if you look from a local support perspective.
Ricky you'll have plenty time to sleep 😴 while waiting for parts to arrive from China and then when it comes, they've sent you the wrong thing as what you asked for got lost in translation.
Y'all need to learn how to speak American.
😂🤣😂🤣
