There's nothing "Average" about your reviews. Your reviews are very thorough, exceptionally well done. Kudos to you and your reviews.
1. Carbon
2. Bamboo
3. Stokes
I live in the Bay Area of California. Reason for Carbon is because of its stiffness and clearance. We don’t have a great road here. The Bamboo is a great board. If it had a bigger clearance without using the AT wheels. Definitely I would choose bamboo. We have potholes and cracks on the road deep enough that would scrape and throw you off the board, regardless the flexibility. Carbon for speed and stiffness. There’s a majority of reckless drivers here. We have a “bike lane” people don’t follow the road rules. The breaking power is much needed and the speed to get yourself out of sticky situation. We don’t have a designated/ separated “bike lane.” It’s literally off the side of the road with other cars.
Omg, thank you for rescue from boring home quarantine. Your videos are amazing
Editing helped me. Glad watching helped you. Lots more coming :)
@@averageeskatereviews Hey Chris, great video indeed!
This is Matt from Dope Grip (Instagram: @Voltagefrog). I was wondering if you want to give the Dope Grip tape a shot 😉🔥 (www.dopegrip.com). What's the best way to contact you? Maybe PM me on Instagram.
Cheers, Matt 🤙🏽
@@voltagefrogmatthias2375 have you had any experience with the new cooling coils for the motor (ice cooler) its on CZcams for installation.
Your video reviews were comprehensive enough for me to feel comfortable going from looking at
mahalos for all your expertise, i bought all 3 of my Evolve boards because of your commentary, We live in Hawaii and like to ride thru ala Moana and Waikiki, right off the beach we have wide side walks. I first bought the GTR Carbon, 3 weeks ago later I bought the Bamboo Hadean a week and a half ago , then 2 days ago I bought the carbon Hadean. , I love all 3 boards" LIFE CHANGING" , you are exactly right, all 3 boards are exactly how you explained it, thinking about buying the Stoke now, but the store that sells the Evolve ESkates here The Bike Factory does not carry it due to low commision from Evolve , I use the GTR as my daily commuter, we live in Kalua and our small beach town is built for ESkates. look forward to more videos from you. Aloha and Mahalo Jayce, BTW Evolve needs to take better care of you, you are a good advertiser of there boards!! $6000 worth of sales just from me!! keep up da good work!!!!
Great video I just got my bamboo GTR and it’s charging right now. I’m following ALL the suggestions from these EXCELLENT videos
Thank you for the breakdown! You earned a like and subscriber. Keep up the good vids!
Awesome video. I just got the stoke and it is awesome. Super fun to ride around town. I also have a gtr carbon AT for when I want to ride fast and have the range. I think owning a long board and a short board is the ultimate answer.
Love your reviews
Maria Diaz ayyyyyyy same greetings from Australia
Hi Maria, I'm from Western Australia City of Wanneroo. Anyway, may I suggest and recommend the Black Hawk Electric range from Queensland. I have a pro series V3. It has reverse kingpin trucks, very stable at high speed, unlike double kingpin. Black Hawk has hub motors so no belts and motor plates to break. The pro has a top speed rated at 35 KPH and a range of 25 k and go up a hill of 20 to 25 percent ( steep) Greenmount out of Midland is 10 percent. Hub motors do feel a bit harsh compared to a belt . I ride regularly around Lake Joondalup and along west coast from Hillarys to bit south of Scarborough and back with no problems. The remote is easy to use one way to go and the other way to stop. It has 3 speed settings, not sure about the smaller boards.
Great video as a
Always @AverageEskatereviews! For me it's -
1. BGTR - Range, flex, comfort and customisability
2. STOKE - Fun, convenience, size
3. CARBON - don't understand how can people enjoy a stiff deck but each to their own :)
You hit the nail on the head there bro.
Fair play my man love your voice tone and how you go into detail.... I'm all about the AT carbon now and thats what I'm going to pick up tomorrow thanks for making my mind up for me. Lots of love form ireland 🇮🇪.... don't change brother ❤
Top notch video. Awesome all around! Thank you from Tampa, Florida!
These reviews are incredibly good, especially the footage of how they have so different flex
Great video and cinematography!
Sold great review bro!! I opted for the carbon all terrain cant wait ......for delivery cheers for making the choice easier.
The deepest review on youtube. I just purchased Bamboo GTR after your insight. Thank you mate!
Great review, thanks!!
Just ordered a stoke, feel like the travel friendliness was a huge benefit for me, being able to easily bring it anywhere and even fitting it on a backpack, thanks for helping me with the decision-making !
You happy? I am thinking to buy a Bamboo GTR or Stoke
@@YmXJjPFMkgRUWNyLqGot both the GTR and Stoke, Stoke is ridiculously fun to use and because of this is actually my favourite over the GTR Bamboo, the range however is its biggest drawback and is the reason i have the GTR. If you want to go on long cruises then go for the GTR if you're doing short commutes or need portability then definitely the stoke
Enjoyable breakdown mate, im 75kgs & I've chosen the bamboo gtr can't wait 👍
I live in San Francisco with huge hills and bad roads and primarily use my Carbon GTR AT to get around. I have a Stoke for short neighborhood hops, as it’s easy to carry in shops and restaurants. The Stoke only gets about 5 miles here, unfortunately. I replaced the Stoke street wheels with Foamies and LOVE them. It’s almost like having AT wheels.
I live in Bay Area as well. Did the boards arrive quickly? No issues with shipping?
Very good review. Look like the carbon with AT wheels would be the one for me.
This channel's pretty good! I'm subbing.
Hope to see you guys at a Evolve event this year! Cyclopark or Gokart track evening.
1)Bamboo
2)Stoke
3)Carbon
P.s.for people who weigh up to 75 kg it is better to choose bamboo. Because with such weight at high speed, even flex will not bother you because of the low weight. And from the carbon board (if you go on bad roads), on the contrary, you will be dumped by vibration. and if you weigh 80+ kg, then it’s all the same what deck to take (due to the large weight, vibration will not reset you)
P.s.This is my personal observation, I interviewed several friends with carbon and bamboo
Nice review mate it gives a good idea, I think I would go for the bamboo one
You are the answer to quarantine boredom
Incredible review! Bamboo for me! Thank you.
another great review A+
Need to change your name from average eskate reviews to pro eskate reviews. Pretty awesome that you review and compare the most popular boards on the market. Are you sponsored by Evolve? If not, they should really hit you up lol.
Very very very HELPFUL!! PERFECT video!
Most welcome !
Great review Fella 💪😎👊
My first Board was the Carbon GT and it was great, but in a few days i will bye the Bamboo GTR, because i want a bit more comfort.
Great Video ! Greetings from Germany.
thanks for the breakdown
Great content! thanks. So I like the sound of the bamboo because I like the points you made about carving and more playful. I am 240lbs. should I lean towards carbon based off my weight or would I still be good with bamboo?
Lovely video. Thanks alot
Awesome video dude. Lots of great info there.
Thank you man :)
If you’re tall and have big feet, the bamboo deep concave is pretty uncomfortable and you’ll find your feet too close together. Carbon GTR’s flatter concave and wider stance is primo. Awesome board and looks cleaner IMO :) good vid!
Thanks for great comparison review. How much less ground clearance does the Bamboo have v. Carbon? Probably 1. Bamboo, 2. Carbon. Primary use would be off pavement riding the 7" AT wheels. Packed dirt, gravel roads. Nordic ski/running trails. Relatively lighter weight at 60kg. The flex feel of the Bamboo and option for shorter wheelbase are a plus for specific use.
I love that you’re a Cambridge homeboy!! My only question is - how do you survive the potholes??
Watching this now!
Hi Chris, great review mate! Are you a surfer or snowboarder? And if so have you found riding these boards helpful?
The stoke and bamboo share battery tech and systems. You can use the stoke battery on the bamboo for flying.
Answered my question. Bamboo it is. Thanks man. Time to save.
Good video boss. I run a mini x. Subbed
hello friend how are the 6" a.t tires compared to 7 a.t ?Right now I'm trying the cloud wheels I'm not too sure about them yet I do have the 7 inch tires they seem pretty good.Thanks for any advice great reviews👍😎
Love your accent and diction :)
Hi can you make a tutorial or tips video about how to master riding eboard? Especially the evolve stoke, it will be really helpful. Thx
I have both the bamboo and stoke. My fav is bamboo with 7 inch at wheels. I also have 6 inch at and 97 mm street wheels. I'm 6 foot 4 inches barefoot and 106kgs in weight and no issues with that.
@@ej53_elisha no. Its totally fine. I have been kms on dirt trails and through forest as well no problem
thanks great info on your video
I just picked up the GTR Carbon, Love the board. As i'm about 100kg rider weight I struggle in the local hills a little 25kmh top speed up some. It's such a light board too, even though i'd love a lonestar supersport it's just far too heavy (and expensive) I think this board is the sweet spot for most heavier urban commuters , Under 85kg i'd say go the bamboo!
Should checkout unknownboards.com
Same order as you. One question I have is does the hand control display the degree of the incline. From what I understand 30 degree angles is max for these boards
Wow, I'm surprised you picked the stoke second, it seems so different and thr range is so low compared to the other two.
I’m 88 kilos and no issues scratching the casing on the GTR bamboo 7” wheels, I do a fair a nouns of trail riding
Imagine the Stoke ‘Bantam’ with abec 107mm wheels 🙏🏽😃 (I have the bamboo GTX)
First - amazing videos, I love the details and how professional they are. Two - I realise I need to replace my boosted stealth. It's tempting to go out and find one of the last available boosted stealths, but it seems like that might be a mistake. To me it seems like the Evolve GTR Bamboo is the closest to the stealth (notwithstanding the weird jolt you mention in other videos, the different braking and the turning feeling you have to get used to) and it has extra range. Would you agree that the GTR Bamboo is the smart way forward, instead of getting one of the last Stealths that will be hard to maintain (despite how much I love it). Would love your opinion :)
100% Bamboo GTR is a great option but the deck isn’t as flexible and “springy” as the stealth. I still have mine. It will take a little bit of time to adjust to the remote and no reverse but I don’t miss that feature anymore. GTR is faster, MUCH better range and Evolve as a company are only growing.
Holy sh*t. I thought I wrote that. I'm in the exact same spot as you. Love my Boosted Stealth and almost went to Boostedusa to grab one of the remaining few left but have felt drawn to try one of the Evolve boards. Just can't decide between the Carbon or Bamboo GTR because I want the flex, but I'm also about 205 lbs so I'm worried that so many reviews mention "heavier" people tending to the Carbon stiffness. Hope to figure out soon so I can give it a go. Solid review and great video as well @AverageEskatereviews you got yourself a new sub.
What board do you think would be best for a beginner for electric long boards? I have used regular longboards but I haven’t ever used an electric one.
Which is the best deck to get out of carbon or bamboo If I want to ride predominantly off road and I want to enjoy the comfort of the ride but also have fewer stacks and better control.
BTW with a tall slim build the weight/flex of bamboo shouldn’t be a consideration
1. Bamboo
2. Carbon
3. Stoke
If the Carbon had USB ports, more flex and a more natural feel, I would choose it. I prefer Bamboo because it has an organic feel and flows with your movements like water between rocks in a river.
I have a CGTR with an AT Setup but have been wondering getting the stoke as my second board. I was just going to swap the wheels on the GTR but thought it might be more convenient to just have a second board instead I could use for runs to the shop etc. Obviously UK roads are awful so I’m not sure whether moving to street wheels would be a good idea but the stoke looks like lots of fun. I’ve only started with e boarding 5 months ago so any advice would be great.
No gonna lie, I totally agree about the roads. If you’re riding on now fairly decent roads, the stoke is amazing. I personally wouldn’t use it to commute based on the shit roads but! Quick rides to the store or just going out somewhere I know is smooth for a blast is so much fun! I’ll also be flying with my Stoke a lot !
That sounds great. The roads are awful but there are plenty of well tarmacked industrial estates and parks around here for lots of fun. It’s just a pain carrying the GTR downstairs every time I just want a quick blast or go down the shops. I know the stoke isn’t that much smaller but looks a bit easier to handle. I do love how easily you can ride up some small curbs on the AT wheels. Probably will have to re-plan some routes if I was getting a stoke.
it's a trick question, spend a little more and get a premium board, bio, baja, hoyt , lacroix or kaly are forever boards, evolve are intermediate boards with lots of issues , just check out the esk8 forums don't take my word for it
Is it possible to add the ABECs 107 on the Stoke? On another note I only have money to buy one board between the Evolves (Stoke and Bamboo GTR) or the Metroboard X. Looking for guidance and opinions. I really enjoy the surfing feeling of double king pins. Thank you for all the videos.
You’d get crazy wheel bite with 107mm on Stoke. If the choice was mine, I’d go with the GTR Bamboo but that really depends on your requirements. Thanks for watching
I’m 255lb/115kg. I want the stoke because I have 0 interest in going much over 10mph/16kph and I don’t need more than the Stoke’s range. I know evolve rates the Stoke for 220lbs/100kg but do you think for a very mild rider who isn’t going to be pushing the limits of the board performance wise that overloading it a bit would be disastrous?
Can you review one of the onewheels. I am thinking of either buying the onwheel xr or the Stoke but idk which one to get so a comparison by you would mean everything.
David Reznik I have both and two very very different rides. I feel the Evolves feel more like a snowboard and the Onewheels are just a different league. Depends what surfaces you want to ride on and how far you want to go. Both fun and both are my escape when there is no snow but tend to feel a little safer on the 4 wheels. I swap all the time when I miss the other so both very enjoyable!
@@KMC-we5uh The major reason im considering getting the xr is because of the range it gives as well as it can go offroad easier as I have terrible roads in my town
David Reznik go with the onewheel. I have a pint and ride it to school in NYC every single day (when I could) For almost 2 months. It goes over potholes, bumps on the sidewalk, anything. Really a bunch of fun.
@@ethan9617 Should i go with the pint or the xr. the only reason im looking at the xr more is because of the range but im not sure
Hey bud tks for sharing your oppinion. Thinking about price: whats board brings better benefit @ better price?
Fabio Paza Stoke
Whats the diffrnece between the battery? standard and travel?
My bamboo street arrived andnits seems super wobbly to push decks I've rode, maybe I just need to get used.to it?
Hey Neil the boards come with the trucks pretty loose - tightening them up should take care of the wobbles it did for me on my bamboo gtr at
I just need to get to work full time back and forth which will probably take 15mins on that board. I don’t want my feet to hurt but, I don’t want to be lifting something heavy everyday into my job:/
What are the shoes you’re using?
Hey, i have a backfire ranger x1 and im thinking about getting an evolve board too. I live in Ireland so the weather is bad. Is the carbon abit more waterproof then the bamboo?
They are both sealed very well!
@@averageeskatereviews so you wouldn't worry using the bamboo in the rain?
I love my carbon GT with all terrains
1. Carbon
2. Bamboo
3. Stoke
What's the track in the beginning
Does any of the Evolve have inter-changeable battery for long range travel?
Yes they all do! We made a video. Check our channel e
Love your video's bro, but the one thing I want to ask is that you only put up video's where you are riding WITH a helmet on. I think its good to advocate people use helmets with these boards...I have seen accidents at very low speed with serious head injuries where people did not where helmets...
Can you make a video on belt driven eboard kits?
Give me a few examples and we’ll see what we can do.
@@averageeskatereviews I want a Evolve Stoke but it is a bit out of my price zone. I was wondering if/where I could buy quality parts to replicate Evolve's Stoke electric skateboard.
@@averageeskatereviews Also, what is the difference between direct drive, belt drive, and hub, regarding performance and comfortability? If you are looking for a surf type feel for your electric skateboard would you recommend "double kingpin trucks", or the " Waterborne Surf Adapter" ?
What about the metroboardx
The longest commute board is NXT board
Idk why I love watching vids of things I cud never afford😫
Well in a perfect world let’s have them all
These boards are by far the best 4-wheeled eskateboards right now. Nothing simulates surfing like the 2x trucks. I see all these bros on Chinese made garbage and they all look like they’re NOT HAVING FUN. How many times can you go up and down the block in a straight line? With the Evolve boards you’ll have an infinite number of lines to carve. But DAMN they’re expensive. imo
Great content! Subbed!
How do I persuade my wife that this is a good investment?
😂
i mean if using it to commute then ur saving money on gas?

Great videos - always enjoy watching why I need to buy the Bamboo too :). Snowboarder here with a Onewheel, Carbon GTR and Stoke and now I’m curious if I should pick up the Bamboo too as I’ve always wanted to learn how to really carve when not on the snow. Love your videos and style of reviewing and look forward to the next one. Do you think I need a Stoke AND Bamboo? Leave your comments below!! (Lol, always wanted to say that)
I reckon that you should get a bamboo deck because it feels really nice to carve on or the stoke depending how carvy you want to get. Or you can try to try them out at an evolve dealership. I am a snowboarder to it doesn’t feel exactly like carving on a snowboard but similar or pretty close
How does your onewheel compare to your other boards? I’m a snowboarder as well and am trying to decide between a Onewheel+ XR and bamboo GTR
Carlin Simmons to carve I love my CGTR with 6in pneumatics. The Stoke is also fun but much looser and more street carvy if that makes sense. The onewheels are fun but do not feel like snowboarding to me at all. I’m in the Northeast and we don’t get powder but have to edge a lot so that’s probably why it does not feel like boarding to me when on the Pint or XR. Picked up the BGTR too just for streetwheels and because this quarantining made me miss all my vacations this year so screw it!!
KMC1978 great insight. Def leaning towards the BGTR for carvability. I haven’t tried either but it seems the most fun and snowboard-like. I just gotta get out and try them.
Carlin Simmons just fyi. Carbon has drop deck feel that locks you in better than the Bamboo. FWIW!
1. Bamboo because flex deck is great for carving
2. Exway Wave because Stoke has very little battery and too high price IMO
3. Carbon
Rite on very cool
What's the first track to start the video?
Sick Intro
🤙🏽🤙🏽
Having snowboarded my whole life, using the Bamboo seem a lot more predictable than a completely stiff board like the carbon
1. bamboo (which i own) 2. stoke 3. carbon
Unfortunately for me. I abhore the evolve trigger controller.
Okay, I'm going to buy evolve board around May, and I have huge dilemma about which one should I get. I am a huge fan of longboard curving and I love the Flex but I'm a big person like 190cm tall and weighting 90kg so the carbon is the one for me isn't it, like I love the look I love the longer length, I will ride over speed bumps but the curving... And there is another problem 6 inch or 7 inch wheels, I know that you really like the 6 ich but I feel like 7 is for me. I would be super thankful if you could reply to this...
6 inch vs 7 inch comes down to: Higher speed, not maximum comfort and shorter range vs Slower top speed, max comfort and better range. What is more important to you? That is your answer :)
Let’s save the torque and breaking for another discussion 🤣 that is also different
Seen many 100kg+ guys on bamboos that never had any issues with bottom out... Definately not on all terrain wheels. So yes bamboo is definately a good option for someone your size.
@@krivo86 Thanks, I didn't know that
@@averageeskatereviews Okay, thanks than
Can someone please help me find a cheap but good all terrain electric skateboard.
Ownboard but the price is still high. Haven’t found anything else worth while yet
The stoke seems like a fun board but the range really suffers
I just wish they had *removable* batteries so you could carry a second one in your backpack thus doubling the range 😑
They all do
First (also good film).
I can only get one so im getting the carbon. Easier to clean means longer life with luck.
Good choice!
@@averageeskatereviews hope so. I ordered the AT carbon for work and a Yoyager Neutrino just for shop runs. Pays to have a back up.
My only worry is how well the AT tires deal wirh glass as that is very common on my way to work.
Stoke. I've already got a bamboo lol
1. Carbon - 2. Bamboo - 3. Stoke
How do electric skateboards travel up hills?
Has anyone taken either board in AT on a Golf Course? Behold the green wave.
