I'm going to set the world record electric skateboard ride from Boston to San Diego next year. I'm going to stop at Hodad's at Ocean Beach for lunch. It's going take 30 to 40 days and going to be so much fun! That Evolve looks fun.

@@DavidManningvlog I"m not 100% sure just yet. Probably just a board I throw together myself. It needs an 12S 8P or 10S 8P battery so I can ride 100 miles per day with one charge around noon each day. I've been planning this for a year. My wife thinks I've lost my mind. Can't wait to eat at Hodad's again.
Love the video David. It’s a very accurate review. I have the orange wheels on mine. Now I want to try the blue ones! 🤙🏽⚡️
Great review, i love my stoke series 1.. just park outside the peak area and ride in to the city, soo convenient. have you tried just the phaze remote on the series 1.. i am tempted to just get that because i dont like the feel of the original remote?
Yes David iot is an Australian plug, so if you need to test it please send it to me with the board. Great vid again bud.
thx great video. for the griptape I used stickers for surfboard, that you can use instead of surf wax
Top video David! I got so pumped after watching it that I bought a Stoke. I just got it today and am LOVING it so far. I wanted to ask what helmet you use and if you recommend it? I am also looking for recommendations on (comfortable) pads and would appreciate any and all advice (grip tape, best practices, etc.) (To give you a little background: I am a middle aged guy who loves the ocean. However, being stuck in a land-locked part of the country for most of my adult life, I compensated by starting to surf skate last year. I finally made the move and now live across the street from the ocean, but the surf skating has stuck. I was so inspired by one of your earlier videos, I decided to buy a Riptide. However, by the time I discovered it, it was no longer available. I had pretty much given up till I stumbled across your Stoke video and here we are!) Sending good vibes your way. The impact of your videos is much deeper than you can imagine!
Ohh so glad you did this. As an Aussie I was already looking at getting one of these as a side toy for my e-scooter. The remotes remind me of a Wii nunchuck & also a police speed checker thing. 🤣 That jolting acceleration scares me, as a lightweight female I’d totally go flying off without a handlebar to save me. Haha.

Just want to let you know that because of this video, I pulled the trigger, pun intended, lol, and bought this board! Just came in today! So excited, even a little bit nervous lol thanks for this video! I think I will end up posting one of my own as well since I don’t see too many videos on this board

Great vid. What helmet is that? (Been looking for something like that with chin protection)
nice video although i don't get the v2 label and the purpose of this board. The stoke is a good-looking board that is probably good ad carving but lot off boards are, and it has a really small battery compared to all other boards 15km is not allot for most riders. And the travel friendliness is nice, but it is too big to travel comfortable with it, I already got issues taking my smaller board (EXWAY WAVE). Also, this board is priced pretty high compared to the value you get from it, for 1200 you can get a 2 in 1 board with 4 times the range, more comfort, and way more speed. evolve should have given this board more range and a lower price that way it would be a good option for way more people.
Wish I had one, looks fun to ride
Looks cool, gonna check them out
Tha plug fits here in Oz. Australia. Sounds like a great board. Good review.
Some guys said phaze remote could be compatible with old version one. Is it correct?
Do you know what batteries it has?
I'm interested in the AT GTR series 2 but no reviews anywhere??
wow nice evolve Stoke 👍
I love every single thing about the Stoke Series 2.... except the griptape and foam pad like you said. Is there any way to modify the board and remove it all and then put on your own griptape? Or maybe sand off the whole top of the board and then add your own griptape like you said you're going to do?
@DavidManningvlog
Жыл бұрын
Yep, I'm going to do it to my Stoke 1 and I'll let you know how it goes! Basically just going to peel the foam and then sand down the whole top of the board before adding my own grip tape. It think taking away the foam will make the board a rougher ride, but much grippier!

@@DavidManningvlog Ok awesome! I can't wait for your Stoke mod video!
I saw in another review that this board is good for carvers. I’m on the smaller side and looking for this size of board to commute (not necessarily carve.) Could this work for a commute or would it create too much wobble?
@cartert147
Жыл бұрын
I believe that the "carvy-ness" comes down to the flexibility and mobility of the trucks, and the Stoke's small cruiser-size deck plus its Super Carve Trucks with double barrel/kingpin design lend the board to great carving. However, you can tighten trucks to be so tight that it's almost impossible to turn, so I'm sure you could find the perfect balance of corner maneuverability and a wobble-free ride without a problem! Hope this helps :)
How long in minutes does the stoke last?
Looks like the motor cover can rub on the ground easily when using the kicktail.
so not much different then other than the gen 1. does the new remote work with the old one?
Review on the gtr series 2 coming soon?
Do you consider the stoke 2 a upgrade ?
Can I swap the deck and trucks
Safety first!
Sick board,good fun

If only I ever learnt how to ride a skateboard or had lots of flat open spaces around where I live lol Electric Scooters are pretty much banned to ride anywhere too, apart from private property wonder if they class these things the same.
evolve omakase looks nice 👍🏽
I just wish it was possible to buy a new battery for my Boosted Mini X, best e-board ever :(
Just got one today. Went for a ride, noticed the speed was off. They sent it with the wrong pulley size selected, no big deal. Then I was riding and the brakes went full lock and threw me off. Full pads, only minor rug burn from the pads. So I took it out again after I charged it. And it threw me a second time. I should have recalibrated the remote after the first. But I wanted to see if I could replicate the problem. Now I really don’t trust it. I have 4 other evolve boards too and never had a problem like this.

Good review mate thanks. would you be able to pair you Phase remote with your Stoke s1 and see how actual different the two boards are? I know the battery cells are the same, the motors are the same and deck is the same. so really wondering if the new Efoc is that much of an update. cheers

That's a great idea. I'd like to know if there is a noticeable difference too. I own a Hadean and the power delivery feels smoother than the GTR but I don't know if the motors play a part in that too.

it feels like evolve ran out of time for the stoke and upgraded some small parts to make more money from suckers buying an outdated low specked board that has very little purpose.

@peterz7072
Жыл бұрын
nope, anything over 85mm will likely bite.
Brake was definitely better but the acceleration didn’t feel any stronger to me, was just a quieter version of the same thing with a subtly smaller battery apparently…GTR had a stronger acceleration but it’s just a lowkey version of that annoying jerky startup thing the hadean does then the same power follow up. Reliability-wise I can see these as being good upgrades but that’s about it to me.

Man, mine is significantly more pull off the line that my Series 1. I've put them side by side a bunch and the Series 2 is way snappier off the line. I think you're right though that it's still a minor upgrade. More like an S version of a product line👍
