Thanks Fred enjoyed the speech . And agree with it . The problem with us Australian's is not the board . Shred hard my friend and thanks for the chat last week . I am enjoying my new board .
So true Fred too many people talking and criticising others for doing . Simple build your own board if it's easy .
Love the Gtr 2 just wish Evolve had an option for tkp with this beautiful board .
Love your comments at the end brother! Agree 100, keep it rollin!
My first board is gtr carbon, and stiLL Learning how to skate, i Love how the way you ride, dope! Keep it up man!
Guys a quick tip if you don't have a fastener on your lanyard use a clipped off zip tie it works perfectly 😉
Love the passion homie. I'll be honest I used to shit on Evolve, then I got a hadean and I shut right up. I love my hadean bit I love Evolve the company too they are awesome and they treat you great
Boss moves. Esk8unity always doing what’s right.
I bought a Hadean as my first board a week ago. It’s so fun, no regrets. I’ve bought things from overseas before (FPV drone gear) and it’s been DOA. Its so much hassle getting it sorted and that stuff only cost £100 ish.
I’ve got no regrets, like you say I could have to £300 or £400 but I don’t think it’s worth it when spending so much money
awesome! love my hadeans too! glad ur happy with it!
@@esk8unity that ecomobile or whatever brand their reviews page has multiple duplicates and you can see the time stamps they had multiple people post the same picture some within seconds of eachother with different screen names. Fake reviews = no eco board for me!
Bro you do a great review, stay cool and breezy.
I love my gtr to begin with so happy with this upgrade same gtr just better in every way
Hi Fred. Great review as always. I wanted to thank you for two things. First for the advice you give not so long ago about DKP trucks. I have a few boards but I was sure my hurricane wanted to kill me but after you saying about practice it’s now the first I go for. I love my Zeus pro but there’s something special about DKP I didn’t appreciate until your advice.
The other thing is I now really love the Evolve brand now. I felt they were over priced and over hyped. Not anymore. I got a bamboo board from another brand and I was so disappointed. I won’t say the brand but the deck was tiny and felt cheap so I went and got a Hadean and the quality is fantastic. The deck is just beautiful and ever nut and bolt is beautiful quality. I didn’t want to like evolve I think I was caught up in the negative hype but compared with the other 9 boards I own the Hadean just seems more polished.
Again Fred. Thank you for your posts and stay safe.
wow. thank u for the feedback bud. owning up to that was basically the same
thing i did. i mean who doesnt wanna pay less for better specs. i get it. i did the same thing. bought cheaper competitive boards that claim to be better, and they just simply weren’t. u can feel the difference right away. and yea man, the hadean is just a all around polished beast. glad ur happy with it man ✌🏼
@@esk8unity thanks Fred. It’s also what you said about DKP. I was so against DKP because of a speed wobble at high speed. I blamed the board, the bushings and the wheels instead of the real issue. Me and needing more practice. Now I love DKPs for how carvey and cruisey they are. Thank you brother. Ride safe.
@@jaromdeeks8171 🙏🏼 👏🏼 🙏🏼👌🏼✔️👏🏼✌🏼✌🏼
Directly addressing the hate message well done
Thanks for the awesome review! Really torn between a carbon GTR or TItan X.
Great video and seems like a very well upgraded GTR. The video quality was not great on this one through.
Excellent review... and positive. Thank you.
Thanks for the review 😉 much appreciated.
I like your video very honest the one thing is when you mention the backfire boards at least I know most of them the turbo mode only goes for 30 seconds then is off for 30 seconds and it is also in their literature other than that you’re straight on
Marketing is everything I have nothing against a wall boards I just don’t like the belt driven boards as they’re a little too noisy for me and I am at all day over 60 and rides every day
And at full speed yes I’m crazy
Amazing video thanks, I've been wanting an electric board for like 10 years, before they were a thing! I'm based in the UK and the discount codes aren't working. Do you have any that are valid for the UK distributor/ does anyone know any discount codes?
Bless up
Nice video but Evolve needs to up the batteries, that was my biggest problem with the original GTR, was only getting 15 miles of range on 6” wheels. When I switched to Eovan rs125 it still was only a little better.
eovan came out way later than the gtr. that eovan also is street, not AT (125mm) the panosonic battery they use also had terrible battery sag after 45% which in my opinion defeats the purpose of a big battery board setup. the gtr isnt meant to be a long range board. more range= bigger setup. lastly, they already upgraded to the hadean if u want more
Great review guys and we’ll said Ref the rant ,i totally agree with your ethos ,just a shame the keyboard warriors don’t seem to .🙄 look forward to your next vid 🤙
Right on dude! Nice work. Keep up the good 🤙
Preach 🙌🏼
Thanks bro appreciate your videos, nice chat bout Eskate community. Seems like to GTR2 (20.7 miles) has more range than GTR because of less heat on motors more efficient. Did your buddy on GTR stop a bit b4 you did?
yes he got 16.6 miles.. 0% lasted him almost 2 miles lol
@@esk8unity thanks for that, quite alot more distance just shows how much more efficient everything is. Come to NZ, and try some of our mountain bike tracks, especially Rotorua ull love it 😀, might cya there👍
@@paulmcconachy3340 Would say age of the series 1 battery is something to take into consideration too. My most used series 1 gtr started showing its age in regards to range after 3000km.
I really appreciate this review
Try and put the cable clip on the left a little lower than middle and mine always came off now that I put it a little lower on the clip it stays hasn't come off since hopefully it works for everybody else
Bro, please help a brother out. What board should I buy? I was thinking acedeck x1 or z1 or a gtr 2. What is your favorite board?
All we need is ❤️
Great review!
Great review 👍🙂
My guy's rant is nothing but truth! Especially in today's social climate! I agree entirely with what he said, stop HATING and just ride! It's the same as the car community, "My cAr iS BetTeR aND fAsteR tHaN yOUrs" or,"pShH yOu gOt a FooOOOOr0D(insert favorite car-bash brand here)"..... it's all little man syndrome honestly. Just ride and vibe my friends! Haters gonna hate!
9 days in ........camping at post office!
It had to be said 🙌. ❤️❤️❤️
I really wanna see the Hadean on the side aswell, similar weight riders! And also street wheel setup, decent video otherwise!
Maybe a GTR2 vs Hadean pros cons list?
Man they really should have upgraded the battery with the series 2.
then just get the hadean if u want that much more range.. its range for a 10s is still veryyy good.
amazing ! any link to the lights ?
Fred I agree with your rant . My proble with evolve is that they don't allow others in Australia compete. They have a patent on carbon eskate . So won't allow anyone else sell them in Australia. And that's not inside of what you said
Why dose the board have like 50% of griptape missing and in the worst spot too
There is a history with Evolve starting drama, but hope everyone put the past to bed. To be honest, all of them are made in China, the only difference is where the office is
How does the deck flexiness of this board compare to the Hadean? are they the same. Which one is better? Thanks
better is very subjective. hadean definitely has more flex. in my opinion, the hadean has too much flex. i like the gtr deck better
@@esk8unity Thats a shame, because I like the looks of drop down deck on Hadean better. I was considering getting one, buy will probably stick with my black carve 2.
@@Dutch800 if ur heavy, and u like street, the hadean will bottom out. but if ur not heavy and usin AT, then its very comfortable. but i prefer the gtr deck…. but look out for the black carve 3 soon. thats gonna be a GAME CHANGER
@@esk8unity Depends if the deck has any flex, my black carve 2 has no flex at all. Maybe I'll just get a GTR 2 or ownboard bamboo pro.
I like the Hadean deck much more, the drop down gives extra stability and no more wheelbite, the concave is spot on and it is wider at the feet which gives more response and makes short turns a piece of cake without repositioning your feet.
bit crazy to remove the USB port, but that's more corporate thinking to use only the evolve lights, unless someone designs a adapter !
agreed but at the end of the day, it would be silly to use a aftermarket light strip. chances are it wont be better, and most of all, it can be controlled from the remote. a aftermarket light device wont
💯🔥
Can you track your board on the app?
The componenets of Evolve boards are ALSO from China. People keep saying "china boards" I don't understand it. The negativity toward Evolve as a company is warranted. I and many others have been seriously injured by the brakes of a GTR at speed. Then for them to put out the Series two, which addresses the concerns but without them taking ANY responsibility. So it is unfair to pick on riders for their boards, the community is still small and we need people to be ALIVE and safe to stay in the community and to make it grow. Never stop exposing the terrible practices of ANY company as it makes things safer for EVERYONE. Alos, Evovle boads are mostly from China. The face is just Australian, but if you look into their parts they are straight from the same address as other "china-boards" so i don't understand that rhetoric?
I can second this. I’d happily attach a screenshot of support point blank denying the big judder when applying the brakes going over ~30km/h (with the 7” wheels) all they needed to say was they didn’t include field oriented control in the GT or GTR series 1, and I would have understood, rather than just lying to my face. Never buying evolve again.
Thanks for your honesty guys. I'm about to buy my first board, and the GTR series 2 was my pick based on advertising but didn't know about the problems you mentioned. Are there other brands/boards you recommend?
👍👍
How often do you have to charge the phaze remote?
i dont have to often. but i top off my remotes kinda randomly at my charging station
eliza from evolve just did 93k in on ride with her hadean street setup, and the remote had 2 bars left
It seems almost as the only reason buy hadean now is a few extra miles? Or what am i missing?
yep, Hadean deck is much nicer imo. More planted feel (dropdown) , no more wheelbite , more direct response
Also faster
china bots hating on evolve
You have to much e.board can I have one 🥺
ya sure!
Bro, get gloves!
Evolving "à la Apple" refurbishing some old unsellable stock with a bit of cover-up while not allowing former customers to upgrade their outdated board for no other reason than greed, this is business 101 for sure, maybe if you still had to work for a living you would understand these angry grown-adults or as I'd rather call them conscious customers... 👎💩🚽
Yea Noone else has upgraded boards like this certainly not the black carve 2 or the black carve 3 or the meepo v 1,2,3,or4 or the backfire g1, g2, g3 or exway with the x1, x1 pro, or x1 max or wow go with their signature board whatever it is or ownboard with the Zeus then the Zeus pro bit you give evolve shit for doing it this is exactly what fred was talking about you turd
Try owning a onewheel.
@@josefpoole Lol, out of the frying pan, into the fire 🔥
ooof I've owned both evolve and onewheel. 😢
Past tense terrible customer service.
@@ClintByrnewhat brand would you recommend?
lol all eskate marketing is cringe.
Evolve needs a new name. That is not a gtr.
and whats a GTR to u? 🤔
10s4p in a skateboard that's expensive af. You've lost me lol. Crazy.
the last year metroboard X is over 2400 dollars and the Hoyt EL boards are 2000 . both have less features too . $1450 is very justifiable in my opinion.
@@esk8unity idk man. 1450 isn't horrible but I definitely am happy with my Hurricane for basically the same price. Yeah Metroboard is WAY behind other board manufacturers and asks an arm and a leg. Rip off.
@@huskers1278 it's those dillusional Evolve prices.
Ohhh so the previous motors that burnt out were too small after all. Thanks for replacing 1 but not both of them evolve. ‘Premium’…..
i know what walmart boards call themselves “premium”.. i saw ownboard and Vestar call themselves race car acceleration. dont take it that serious. Every company does it. Those old motors burn out cuz the esc is putting out more power than all its competitors at that time (wowgo at, verreal rs, vestar black hawk, halo beast, onsra black carve 1). but it was outdated technology for sure. it happens
Rubbish board for the money and I’m Australian, best cheap is meepo mini3s, best quality done cheaply is most definitely Acedeck nomad
@@robras2850 $949 its a no brainer. no other 2 in1 flexy setup has its features, its remote, its smoother throttle curve, its all , its customer service, its worldwide retailers , there accessories and fit n finish. meepo minis arent even close to this lol. nomad is a good board for the money for sure. very big heavy tho. acedeck and propel created GREAT value boards. but they still have cheapy remotes and no features like the evolve has. if they did, they would be more money. way more to buying and riding then just specs and price. gotta look at the entire package and whats right for u as a rider. GTR2 is my most ridden board out of ALL the boards u see on this channel. When u get actual experience with these boards, u will understand
