Are we seriously not going to talk about the kid laying down on the longboard as dad kicksat 9:04? I mean, how much fun has that got to be for the kid???!!!
Great review. I have an older Metroboard - non-slim and older controller style - that I still love. You are right when you say that you can tell that these are hand built. Expensive but still a purchase that I have never regretted.
Was at my friends place this weekend and her son got to talking to me about wanting an electric board but he can't afford one. I pointed him in your direction to check out all your reviews. Turns out he already watches your videos! 👍
Its awesome, I've only had one issue with it and that was one of the wires got lose inside from all the vibration. Contacted metro and sent me details and pictures on how to fix it and I was up and running. Still using it to till this day and love it
That's a nice little Metroboard. Glad to see more reviews on them. Have you reviewed the dual Stealth yet? I ordered mine 2 weeks ago and can't wait to ride it.
Yo Talon I just got the Ascent with your logo on it. Its super clean. Like the leather and cant wait to start using it. The moment i got it i retired my Hell bent 2.0 combat wallet. Cant wait to see what you and Trayvax come up with.
Sweet micro board! Might be something for me to look into later. No into skateboards but my nephew has been teaching my 3 year old to ride as much as he can. May be looking at one of those Chinese boards to start on in the future. Thanks again for the great review! Keep it up! BTW I received my Talon Sei Trayvax wallet this weekend! The quality is amazing bro! Switched my cards out from the summit right away!
Hey T, sorry to say but its been a while since I've watched one of your vids. BUT I remember saying- when you had 1k subs almost a year ago- that you were going to make it big. And look at you at almost 200k. Good for you man. All the best and keep up with the success! -M
Ilan is a very benevolent guy. I asked at one of the forums where I can see and feel the Metro board and he suggested to visit him at his house where he has a couple of boards to show me.
Been watching your electric board videos today. Thank you, these videos are the best reviews i have seen on them. I'm stoked about the onewheel+ xr. Think you might do that one sometime? Curious what your thoughts would be.
If you are looking for a great board then Metroboard is a very good option. I personally have the 33" mini slim longboard stealth edition, 27 mile range and 10 watt LEDs. This board is built to last. Many choices are coming out on the market. I recommend you add Metroboard to your list of favorites. What's not to like!
Awesome review. While you were riding the Metro, did you have any issue while turning hard toeside (regular) and losing some power since only one wheel is belt driven and your weight is shifting off of that wheel on a shorter deck? Or, does the board maintain consistent contact with no wheel slip? It would probably only be in very sharp turns, but I was curious. Thanks Talon!
Great question! I actually cut that part out of the video because I wanted to keep it shorter, but yes you will get a little wheel slip when accelerating and breaking under tight turning. It was something to get used to, but after you feel it once or twice you sorta correct for it with your body position. Thanks for watching! 👊🏻
Would love to see a review on the wowgo mini, thinking of getting it but there's barley any reviews out there and this board is way out of my budget haha. Sick vid btw!
Skateboarding Progression @40+ if you are looking to go up hills, the metro board dual has the power. I weigh 250 lbs and it can take me up 10-15% grade riding on max setting.
This is off topic and it seems you prefer the snapback cap but any chance you'll make a run with some flexfits? I'd love to buy a Talon Sei hat but hate wearing the snap ones.
Great review as they always seem to be. Do you have any opinions on cheap and cheerful off road eboards? I purchasedmy last board after considering you opinions but have since seen the Evry Trek online (but not much info there) and it has got me thinking about another board...
Swing low Sweet E board yo. This is the second time I’m watching your channel I didn’t really get it first. Thanks for the videos what the hell is a mall grab❓
I wonder at the longevity of the rear truck. Did they heat treat the axle after they welded it? Welding anneals the aluminum and it needs to be heat treated to bring it back up in strength after welding softens the AL. Anyone have one for a while?
In case you were still wondering: Pros: Smooth fat wheels are nice Nice carrying handle Quiet and low profile Smooth ride Cons: Deck scrapes easily Stiff ride Shit remote I had battery issues Grip tape is crap Multiple bolts have fallen out of my board from just normal use
does anyone know if this board gets heavier if you upgrade the battery? my commute is going to be around 5 miles in san francisco so i want to have the extra mileage.
This board is perfectly designed..the sound of the motor is the sound off the future now 2018. Great ...nice job...onley thing...YOU BETTER REALIZE SOME PEOPLE JUST OPEN THE CAR DOOR IN FRONT OFF YOU...
Fuck, That Jet Potato deck is soooo sleeky. This board must be awesome for overall mixed commuting (board + train/bus) Wish I could deck swap but I have a Evolve Bamboo =(
Robert Rasmussen :) Out of interest....why did you choose Evolve GTX over say the Carbon GT? And have you tried the AT wheels? Have you had any Remote 2 Issues? (I ask all these questions because I'm thinking of getting an Evolve board)
Man I don’t know how you have the nerve to ride them boards through and in traffic like that. I have a stealth and also put 400 + miles on my dual + and I still don’t have the nerve to ride them through traffic like that.
I talked to metroboard but when I asked for help in getting a different deck worked out I was treated very rudely. They said if it's not on their site then they don't offer it. Unfortunate considering I still do like their boards.
Stefan0man I’m very surprised to hear this. What kind of build were you trying to do? Custom build take extra time and cost more. They deck also has to be of similar specs to their decks.
Are we seriously not going to talk about the kid laying down on the longboard as dad kicksat 9:04? I mean, how much fun has that got to be for the kid???!!!
Alastair Drong I do similar with my dog lol
I like how you keep everything real and you don’t sugar coat anything keep it up man
THANK GOD!!! A new review that's not a month or more!!! Thanks for all Metroboard reviews and I look forward to more from your channel.

I'm gonna go run some errands, then run some errands, and finish the day off with running some errands.
Probably never going to buy one of these boards but I still love your reviews. You do em right
Their Longboard option has a 55 mile range.... damn. Wish I lived in the US so shipping wasn't hundreds of dollars.
Ordered my first electric board, the metro board. Cant wait to get it
I see it's been a year. How do you like it?
I just got a boosted board off eBay yesterday. Excitement level high lol
Its awesome, I've only had one issue with it and that was one of the wires got lose inside from all the vibration. Contacted metro and sent me details and pictures on how to fix it and I was up and running. Still using it to till this day and love it

just ordered the 41” slim stealth edition with the new 55 mile range battery on it .... can’t wait for it to arrive 😭

Awesome man, thanks for the support! 👊🏻
Great cinematography with the Red/Black Lambo shot for the red/black E-board.
I want it just because its black and red lol.. love the B-roll you do on your product reviews keep the quality coming.
Hey T,

Great review fella. Not many doing as in-depth reviews of E-Boards as you.
Keep up the great videos!
I met the founder of metroboard Ilan is a great guy! Kef Tech company that makes metroboard is Israeli but the boards are assembled in California.
Actually Kef Tech is a US based company. The boards are made in Southern Washington State!
Metroboard Electric Skateboard consider me corrected
Ilan is a very benevolent guy. I asked at one of the forums where I can see and feel the Metro board and he suggested to visit him at his house where he has a couple of boards to show me.
Dude you must try the 41 inch Metroboard stealth edition dual motor. I have the single motor and tried the dual motor and the power is insane
Been watching your electric board videos today. Thank you, these videos are the best reviews i have seen on them. I'm stoked about the onewheel+ xr. Think you might do that one sometime? Curious what your thoughts would be.
Talon I just found your channel and it’s anazing! Can you do a full comparison and recommendation between all the budget (
Welcome to Miami. Hope you like it. What do you do for work?
I recommend some toe stopper on the board if you feel your feet move too much forward when riding.
6.57AM in Miami...I WANT A METRO BOARD!!!! GREAT VIDEO

Would love to see a review on the wowgo mini, thinking of getting it but there's barley any reviews out there and this board is way out of my budget haha. Sick vid btw!
Good to know, thanks for the info
Great review. I am searching all options right now. Hills are a major concern.
Skateboarding Progression @40+ if you are looking to go up hills, the metro board dual has the power. I weigh 250 lbs and it can take me up 10-15% grade riding on max setting.
Talon you're almost at 200k
You should totally review more shortboards! What about the wowgo mini/ meepo 30"?
All of the Chinese boards are the same components but just on shorter decks so my opinions on them probably wouldn't change much
You could also compare it to the wowgo 2 mini
Would really appreaciate it!
I think the new boosted mini would be a nice comparison
I love that Metroboards look more DIY than my DIY boards. Lol 😂
Awesome
Hate the remote on size alone
05:28 so just get a board strap for your backpack or sling to carry it.
This is off topic and it seems you prefer the snapback cap but any chance you'll make a run with some flexfits? I'd love to buy a Talon Sei hat but hate wearing the snap ones.
Currently working on it!
Metroboard X is now shipping. Go check it out on Metroboard's website. Enjoy the ride!
I wish the remote didn't look so much like a pistol, especially here in the states where law enforcement is trigger happy.
It ain't not like a pistol lol
No cap
Hey mate! You say you sell your used boards. Do you post it anywhere? How do you go about it? And do you ship to Canada?
No shipping, I just post them in local places like FB and Craigslist
@@TalonSei Cool. Thanks for the quick response.
the link to the app dont work, can i get the name of the app please thanks/
Great review as they always seem to be. Do you have any opinions on cheap and cheerful off road eboards? I purchasedmy last board after considering you opinions but have since seen the Evry Trek online (but not much info there) and it has got me thinking about another board...
I been following your page and I see that you have review some short boards. Have you looked into the Riptide R1 board?
Thanks for the review, do you plan to try Predator Banshee?
Nice video! By the way there were few seconds that I’ve seen Casey Neistat with beard lol:) anyway you’re doing great job! I’m hooked!
Absolutely amazing review! You said it was in your top 3, what are your top 3 if you don't mind me asking?
GTX Boosted Metro
Talon Sei gonna have to start saving up for the GTX! Also, bought my trayvax ascent special edition!
Thanks for the support brotha 👊🏻
What's the tracking app?? The link doesn't work
Swing low Sweet E board yo. This is the second time I’m watching your channel I didn’t really get it first. Thanks for the videos what the hell is a mall grab❓
Would be dope if you could turn of the front light thats just Draning the dame battery
Kinda wish I bought this instead of the Riptide R1 (although it hasn’t arrived yet, so imma give it a chance).
Keep up the good work!
Talon your echo is crazy loud in your apartment. Might want to add some wall foam.
Are you going to buy and review the new boosted board mini?
I talk about it at the end
Talon Sei oh sorry I didnt get all the way to the end.
how do I buy this model of board now?? I can't find it on ebay
I wonder at the longevity of the rear truck. Did they heat treat the axle after they welded it? Welding anneals the aluminum and it needs to be heat treated to bring it back up in strength after welding softens the AL. Anyone have one for a while?
can you make a video on your favorite top 3 or 5 hub motor boards?
Can you do a review on the BLITZART Huracane 38"?
In case you were still wondering:
Pros:
Smooth fat wheels are nice
Nice carrying handle
Quiet and low profile
Smooth ride
Cons:
Deck scrapes easily
Stiff ride
Shit remote
I had battery issues
Grip tape is crap
Multiple bolts have fallen out of my board from just normal use
Do you get to keep all these boards they send you to test??
Any updates on the board ?
(Another) Fantastic Product Review Talon!
Thanks Momma 🐼
does anyone know if this board gets heavier if you upgrade the battery? my commute is going to be around 5 miles in san francisco so i want to have the extra mileage.
Yup the bigger the battery the heavier it will be.
good to know. do you happen to know by how much? thanks
Can you do a review on the Pomelo P5???
Nice!! Skyline GTR or ZR1 ,definitely Will Check Out!!! :-) Rock ON!!!
I think those cheaper Chinese boards are also made by hand
You should try to get your hands on a one wheel
your casio is a new EDC item?
dang $1200. how do u think it will compare to the extended range mini from boosted?
Which board has been the best in $300-700 range so far?
That's a very broad range with a bunch of options, but out of the ones I've reviewed, either the koowheel or the wowgo
This board is perfectly designed..the sound of the motor is the sound off the future now 2018. Great ...nice job...onley thing...YOU BETTER REALIZE SOME PEOPLE JUST OPEN THE CAR DOOR IN FRONT OFF YOU...
do they use vesc controller?
Koowheel or this?
You should do a build.
Review the teemo board
Awesome vlog
Fuck, That Jet Potato deck is soooo sleeky.
This board must be awesome for overall mixed commuting (board + train/bus)
Wish I could deck swap but I have a Evolve Bamboo =(
please do a review on ownboard
What happened to Sunday gunday?

toooooooooop😲😲
Pro please make video of the ONEWheel . Please dude.
Did you see the kid with the dad on the long board lol
What is your all time favorite board?
Robert Rasmussen :) Out of interest....why did you choose Evolve GTX over say the Carbon GT? And have you tried the AT wheels? Have you had any Remote 2 Issues? (I ask all these questions because I'm thinking of getting an Evolve board)
In the words of Chester... America
Wow good😀😀😀😀
Make another EDC vlog

Nice.
Dj Project *clicks* nice
Selling some boards you say
Hi Talon
Check out Marbel 2.0 for a US based board company
Have you ever fallen tryin to talk to the camera while riding on the street?
Your girlfriend must have a refreshing mornings 🙂🌄 with that attitude 🤠 lol
Not the mall grab :(
Carry around a 15lb board all day and try not to mall grab once.
Talon Sei I’m just giving you a hard time 😂💪🏼 get them gains bro
hopefully the market demand for electric skateboards will significantly decrease the price. I can't justify anything over $400 for an electric board.
Damn I would like that
Can you send me it ?
Why the hell would he just give an expensive ass board to a complete stranger?
New vid!
Man I don’t know how you have the nerve to ride them boards through and in traffic like that. I have a stealth and also put 400 + miles on my dual + and I still don’t have the nerve to ride them through traffic like that.

Anybody has one that they wanna get rid of & sell?
wait till you hit a rock at full speed, that's gonna hurt!!!!
