Great video. One thing I admire about you guys is that your production quality has been top notch since your very first video. Keep at it, and you'll eventually get the exposure and recognition that this channel is so deserving of.
Amazing video. I've been waiting for this review while I wait for my board.
Another great review discussing both theoretical and real-world aspects without being too long.
You guys are making really high quality reviews. I would love to see a One Wheel RX review next. Keep it up
I'm loving this professional style channel for e-skate gear, kudos
One of my new favorite youtube channels
You should take your built board to booted headquarters for them to ride, and give their opinion as it may influence their future boards in a positive way.
DanieI Joseph ehh, they're very similar. They practically used the same parts as the V2, except for the control (which boosted should not change, as it is already excellent). Just more powerful motors, but the boosted, if im not mistaken, has better protection for the hardware
Excellent review bro. I'm still on the fence with the stealth. Thank you.
Your video reviews are hands down the best on UA-cam. Very thorough, informative, unbiased, and to the point. Congrats and keep up the great work.
I bought an Evolve Bamboo GTX 2-in-1 and I feel like it's beyond amazing, but I would love for you guys to review one to see how it compares to other boards. I plan on buying a second board soon so my girlfriend can ride with me and I'm unsure if I should buy another or try something new. I'd love to have your trusted opinion on this. Any chance that will happen?
Very nice collection of spots in around Seattle :)
Wasn't able to identify all of them, would you mind listing some of them?
Can’t wait for mine to come in 🙂
Can you do a review video on the Raptor 2?
I really enjoy your videos, can you make it longer and with hill test? Maybe a hill test video with all your boards? 🙏
Very professional video 👍
Awesome video... What mode did you use in order to achieve 13miles on a ride. Hope to hear from you thanks.
Can you guys make a diy mountain/AT board, vs others... backfire evolve etc
Awesome video
How many miles do u get on your foosted board? I’m still debating if I should buy the stealth or make the foosted and range is important to me.
this channel is super profesh, where are all the subscribers?
Please do an evolve bamboo gt review
Hey guy love your videos, i am really interested in your short board build but you guys said it was a prototype in the video are you guys planning on continuing that build because the performance i saw in that video looked fenominal.
Mr. GentlePotato phenomenal* and yes, I'd love an update video with any possible improvements and a build tutorial
Hello. If y'all can, can y'all please review the DIYEboards 10s5p hub kit. Thank you.
The board looks incredible but it doesn’t justify the $2500 Australian Dollars
I agree.
Mmm gotta love the crap Aussie dollar, GST, and that extra bit of "Aus tax" that so many companies love to slap us with
You can always build your own.
It's all relative to the individual
Evolve GTX all the way
Can you try hooking up the Mini X to VESCs and see if it can perform the same as the Stealth? I mean both of them have the same XR battery.
are you guys going to review any exway boards?
Question: does the battery take a hit when changing the pulley? I did a shapeways pulley upgrade on my boosted mini x. It topped 27mph. But the battery drains faster. I also upgraded the wheels from 80mm lunars to 85 caguamas.
Where’d u get ur shoes?
do you recommend the boosted stealth or the dual bamboo v2 please?
Id still get the foosted
Foosted ford
Boosted stealth and raptor2 which one? For daily transportation from dorm to class？？🤔
does the stealth have a flat board surface? or is it curved like the original boostead board?
Longer videos please!
Looks cool but i prefer the old school pushing!lol still much more fun
In which city this movie was shooted ? pls answer :)
Looks like Seattle, what trail is that in the first shot and throughout the video?? Great Review!!
Bailey Graf I was wondering that too. I noticed he was riding at Greenlake in one of the shots
it's the Arboretum loop trail
Have you ridden the raptor 2?
your comparison at 30 seconds lacks the evolve carbon gt and the rest of evolves line up its fast af
FOOSTED BUILD VIDEO TUTORIAL please!!!
Dude where is this? Beautiful city.
Do compare video with Backfire G2s :P
Wish I could afford one
thanx for all the professional technical info... ordered a MiniX and Stealth six weeks ago... Order number: 92853 and, haven't received them yet. Meanwhile, its been fun watching Boosted Videos on UA-cam. By the time my boards arrive, I guess there won't be much to know about... still entertaining nonetheless.
Have you gotten shipment email yet?
nope... will post here once I do.
I have been waiting for you guys to release this video before making my next purchase and also was waiting on the boosted mini x reveiew! I am looking to purchase a new high end longboard (fast distance board) and at this point its between the boosted stealth, the raptor 2, and the "Foosted" that you guys built. I am also looking to get a mini board for the subways here in NYC that is easy to carry and at this point I narrowed it down to the Boosted Mini X, your DIY mini build from diyeboards, and the ARC Aileron v2. Please do the arc aileron video asap! Your videos are so amazing please keep up the good work! As for each of those categories I am looking to make a purchase in, which would you do?! I currently have an "Ownboard W1 Kicktail" version which I love. Please let me know what you think and keep up the good work/ amazing videos!!
Gregory Patzelt i think you should definitely go the diy way, while boosted is a recognisable brand I’m sure you’ll get much more excitement and enjoyment out of an ultra powerful diy board built for long boarders with credible longboard parts.
Which DIY set up would you go with?
For serious daily commuting, the Stealth is probably the more pragmatic option. Its jerk filter can be quite nice on days when you're feeling less enthusiastic about riding and just want to get where you're going without any drama. That being said, I commute daily on the Foosted, and I'm absolutely loving it. There's just something about that board.. If it were a car, I think it would be a Ferrari, while the Stealth would be a Porsche. Both are excellent, but the Foosted has a little more excitement (or pantomime, as Jeremy Clarkson might say), while the Stealth is easier to daily drive. It's tough to go wrong with either.
As for the shortboard to buy, the Aileron looks extremely promising on paper, but we won't know for sure until we test it. We can state confidently that the Mini X is phenomenal to ride, but it's also on the heavier side, so it's not without its drawbacks. DIYing may be a solid option too, although you'd have to figure out the enclosures, as we never followed up on our prototype build.
Just because you threw the Jeremy Clarkson reference in there i'm digging it!! I absolutely get the reference between the Porsche and Ferrari. I mean the Porsche is the better daily driver with less maintenance, while the Ferrari is just special and exciting. I am pretty advanced in all board related sports/extreme sports. Therefore, the more exciting and faster the ride (especially a good carving board) would be the better choice for me. However, I am not the most handy guy in the world - but I think i'd have no issue following your tutorial to put the board together.....
As per the Short board (DIY build) I was thinking more along the lines of the bolt on kit that you guys used from DIYeboard (i believe you used the 10s2p kit dual belt drive) and just bolted it on? It was the one with the globe deck in the 3 way comparison video VS the meepo short board and the riptide r1. If I were to go the DIY route on a short board, I would go with either that kit (the 10s2p or the 10s5p). Would the 10s5p dual belt kit fit on a 30 or 31 inch deck though?? It comes with enclosures....
SkateMetric Jeremy Clarkson believes in two things, speed and power
as good as it performs, you can build one that performs the same or even better for half the price. it wont be as refined but its not worth double the price. ALSO I CAN MAKE BOARD FOR PEOPLE IF THEY ARE INTERISTED I CHARGE A 50 BUILDING FEE BUT THIS INCLUDES ME PICKING PARTS FOR YOUR NEEDS AND EVERYTHING
Yo
U can build me one?🤔
@@jacobbrown2225 Are you in the US?
Yes indeed
Are you selling any of your DIY longboards ??
evolve ?
Why is Blitzart never talked about? It's the only half decent board on Amazon.
Why Amazon? 4 year warranty.
How long did it take you to get used to the boosted board when you first bought one?? Because I’m thinking of getting one soon.👌🏾👌🏾✌🏾
Edrell Mandrique if you’ve never rode a skateboard/longboard it’ll take about a week to be comfortable but if you do have experience riding boards, only a few days, I have a V2 it’s amazing, so worth it
Eddie Perez oh ok thanks for the Reply!✌🏾
Edrell Mandrique no problem!
super pro.
Please compare it to XR battery powered v2 Dual+. The XR generates more torque.
Jason Latorre if that's the case, I strongly suspect the only change to the torque curve would be a translation of the knee towards the top speed
Do you get these boards sent to you to test from manufactures? Or do you loan them from other riders? Or buy them outright to review?
Dan Gibson Bought them.
i dont skateboard, is this still noob friendly to use??
What about mileage? You often compare boards just on pure peak performance but I reckon the range (and reliability long term) it's a crucial factor when it comes to choose if going for less performance but known limits (boosted) or going through the risk and unknown of a ground up building (foosted). So after many weeks of commuting the foosted how do you compare these two boards on range? Thanks
I've also been wanting to know about range I wish they would make a response video to all the questions!
We intended to build the Foosted with a 214Wh 30Q pack, but unfortunately, we received a defective unit. As a temporary solution (while we wait for the replacement to arrive), we've been using a 144Wh 20R pack, which is somewhat smaller than the XR battery found in the Stealth. With the correct battery, the Foosted ought to be right on par with the Stealth range-wise, but in its current state, it'll probably go about 7-10 miles before performance completely falls off (we haven't actually tested this).
Honestly though, I'm not sure I'm going to bother installing the bigger pack when it arrives. Range hasn't been an issue for me, and I appreciate the lighter weight of the 144Wh battery.
SkateMetric Thanks! Did you ever consider getting the Sanyo battery?
It seems strange that the Foosted is more powerful but gets similar range to a Boosted board?
SkateMetric the 144wh battery will have the same weight as the Samsung 30q battery since it still has 20 cells of 18650 size
Review the Evolve Bamboo GTX please!
Having a GTX, I can only tell you: It's so much better than boosted
Andréas I hope you've got good safety gear..
It's an unreliable safety hazard. 'Nuff said.
Well that's a cheap and unprofessional way of reviewing a board considering your board reviewing channel is delivering, I quote from your homepage: *reviews and comparisons with a high degree of quantitative rigor*.
In all seriousness though, we think the numerous reports of Evolve riders being thrown from their boards is absolutely unacceptable. Have you ever been tossed from an electric skateboard on account of the brakes locking up? We have, and as far as we're concerned, nothing in the world could redeem a board that does that.
Additionally, Evolve's reliability and customer service are legendarily bad. We've actually seen the former firsthand, when a rider came by our local skate shop with his brand new, broken down GTX board. We helped him diagnose the problem, and in the process, we got a close look at the board's hardware and electronics (we were not impressed).
We absolutely do intend to get our hands on a GTX for benchmarking purposes, but if we were to review this board, our verdict would clearly be a foregone conclusion.
Thanks for info ~ :-) The board looks incredible but it doesn’t justify the 2,700,000 Korean WON (2,400 US$)
KAMi JUINs after tax ? Haha
(Boosted Stealth) Contractual purchase cost + Shipping Rates + Tax = 2,400 US$
Just Too expensive
Try $1,700 USD all said and done
I fell off the wowgo 2s going 20mph on a bumpy sidewalk like 2 days ago have road rash all over my back, arms and hands, might have broke or sprained my toe do you have a well-recommended helmet I should buy? luckily I did not hit my head
Can I ask what wheel size and pully combo you used on your DIY board? 10s4p with 15t/36t and 100mm wheels has drastically lower torque and slower 5-15mph when compared to a 10s4p with 15t/42t and 83mm wheels. Top mph will of course be lower for the faster accelerating board.
Amelia Records 5:12 ratio with 100 mm wheels iirc.
Yeah, that feels too slow. You'll get 25mph but way too slow acceleration. For tight, short track race, a 5:14 ratio (15t/42t) with 83mm wheels is awesome. Yeah, tops out at about 20/21mph but off the line acceleration destroys any Boosted or Raptor. Ive settled for 15t/42t 100mm as a compromise for top end but with the small 83mm its like a rocket off the line and 5-15mph would easily be top of your table.
Amelia Records Oh, you're talking about the Foosted, not the 12S build. That uses 14:36 (probably shouldn't be reducing these ratios) and 85mm wheels. Its acceleration is very fast with the right current limits. You have to remember to account for that and motor KV.
You're using a 10s2P Meepo battery and ESC?
Motor Max: 80 A
Motor Min: -35 A
Batt max: 20 A
Batt min: -12 A
Absolute max: 130 A
Im running 190KV setup with similar currents. Just for fun, you should try a 3d printed 42 instead of a 36 on your Foosted. Cheapest way to get more acceleration 5-15.
What's your go-to commuter these days? The Stealth or is it still the Foosted? ....even if you ride one 51% of the time and the other 49% of the time ;)
maybe review the backfire galaxy g2?
sambaas Definitely considering it.
SkateMetric cool
Although it's stats aren't as great as the Raptor 2 and other electric boards, you still recommend this as the "best non-custom e-skate you've ever used." I'm curious as to why? To elaborate, if you would be ever so kind to have reviews of the boards that outperform this and compare the value to the consumer on which is most practical in regards to cost and performance (speed, distance, torque), that would be super helpful in understanding why certain boards are still considered better than others
The Raptor 2 is just impractical and not particularly fun unless ridden on impeccable terrain IMO. It's insanely heavy, its deck is completely rigid, and its hub motors harm traction and ride quality. Fun on trails, but not so strong as a longboard and definitely not something you want to commute with if you're ever required to carry the board.
I'd love to review the Raptor 2 in detail, but I'm not sure when I'll next get to use one.
how come this channel that made the best review videos and videos overall just stopped uploading just like that
:(
I'm buying my first board ever. Is the Stealth worth the extra $200 over the Plus? Or I could make the Foosted, but would that be too much power for a beginner?
If you're going to buy a Boosted, we'd recommend springing for the Stealth or perhaps buying a V2. The Plus is probably an excellent board as well, but you could save some money with a V2 and likely enjoy the skating experience more. We love the Foosted, but if you're just getting into the hobby, you might be better served with an off-the-shelf option.
the thing with the foosted is you can make it as wild or as tame as you want using vesc to adjust the power and torque. Once you get comfy with riding you can start turning it up more and more. Foosted will give a much more custom tailored ride compared the a boosted board be the flex choice and the wheel and power settings.
Super helpful, thanks!
Try teemo board its very powerful and it goes to 28mph
eagle gamer pk it's not very powerful. Just fast.
SkateMetric believe me there are very steep hills were i live but it goes over them smoothly
Stealth or mini x for city riding?
Wowgo 3
Still would get the rip stick over this
The Boosted stealth is not a finished product and I’m starting a campaign to get a recall bc what’s going on is completely unacceptable. The motors bend on this board and I have about 5 friends all with the same issues. Yea boosted sends u new motors but that’s a temporary fix bc after 100 miles again u can expect the motors to bend causing a clicking noise that is ridiculous.
Hey dude Im from Hawaii and was going to buy a boosted stealth but thinking about the onewheelxr since its reliable....tell me which one to choose...I going to get 1 next week
Any update?
Oh fuck off. This board is so expensive it better be this good
i hesitate between wowGO 2S and Backfire G2S . anyone ?
I chose Backfire, The sanyo gets 5-10 km more range if you are about 70 kg. Backfire has good range without having to pay extra the board is Better qualtity, swappele ureathane, free 96mm wheels in the package. 8-12 Days shipping
If you are getting the sanyo battery then price
thanks for your answer
Yeah okay great review as usual but not to mention the ridiculous price when extremely similar performing boards are at third of the price is BS,the price of an item is a crucial part of its viability to most of us mortals.whatever.
How come the Metro board isn't on your chart? I guess it just blows all the competition out the water huh.
They said they would send us a unit but never actually did it.
3:42 try not to worry
get a meepo board cheaper, great quality and higher top speed , not counting higher initial acceleration.
Great video! You should join our for group rides! PNW esk8 collective on FB, would love for you to join us! Lots of fun, we have a really good group of people
Why didn't you list the carbon Evolve GT? I thought you a credible channel
fmadrid91 We don't own one and they're very expensive. I'm sure that will change soon, however.
Yeah double the torque, 3 times the price.
It doesn't really matter that its a bit better than cheap china boards, it cost more than twice of a cheap china board for a little better torque etc etc its expensive, period.
Joel Glass Did anyone claim it was a bargain?
SkateMetric that's true. But you still use stats from cheap and expensive boards, the expensive boards should be better but there not due to the price point.
Joel Glass They are better... they're just simultaneously more expensive lol.
I still don't understand why people use drag races as a method of judging it's power, unless you have two identical people it's useless.
Rip boosted:( too expensive for me anyway
Lmao shamless plug, nice
$2000 is too much.
I’ll make my own board for that kind of money. You can get twice the speed and performance for what they want.
This board is so bad for the price:
38kmph😂
7 miles range on hyper mode😂
And no display on the remote
.... where'es the evolve gt comparison. horrible review because of this
Gtx is so much better .
