The Evolve Carbon GTR - Perfect Family Activity

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ต.ค. 2020
- After eyeballing the Evolve GTR Electric Skateboards for years I finally pulled the plug and picked one up. I have used a Yeeplay and a Meepo prior and tried other electric boards but the Evolve Carbon just kept calling my name.
Watch my real 1st impressions as I unbox and ride this board for the 1st time.

Sean Sean Sean ... you are the epitome of the adult child. You make the "Thrill of Life" look so easy. You bring back the memories of childhood. A time when as a person we were evolving without a worry in the world. OK we did worry about getting home on time. There were limits.
Trust me Barry, i have plenty of worries. i just try and drown them out by enjoying what i can when i can.
thanks for the very nice comment!
This board looks so cool 😎 hello from the UK 🇬🇧
Hey. Welcome
Impressive how that board handles the unpaved areas. Great video, Sean. "Ohh! So much bigger. Ohh! So much bigger." Ha ha
Oh yeah! ha ha
super video sean .looks like you had great time on it ..
Yes I did, thank you.
And also this channel needs to blow up !!! 👏👏🚀
Thanks, i would not complain if it did. lol
Mr SEAN OZZ! Great video brother. I need to retire my boosted boards after watching this.
it is a shame that the boosted are no longer being made.
I personally love my evolve I’m 21 and it was way out of budget... not one single regret tho . The stuff my board does for my mental health I just love it
Right. I was on the fence about cost but I love it here all summer. Amazing place to skate around the lake.
Thanks for the comment.
Fantastic job, keep it up!👍🛹
Thanks
Sean, get a remote cover it will save the display on the controller. Leet3D make a sweet cover for the remote.
I have debated one. The seem allows for it to split if you drop it. I like my blue to show so I just use the wrist strap and don't drop it. For now. Lol
Looks like the monster truck of boards! 😎
there are some higher end than this even. they can cost 4k or even more. it is crazy.
Awesome review
Thanks
Sean, great video! You can disable dead man switch in the main menu on controller. Which Go Pro did you use to capture the video?
I think I probably used the max. As you can see by my channel I have plenty of videos showing it vs other action cams and normally go back to it.
Thats correct. You can disable the dead man's switch. I reactivated mine after disabling if for awhile.
Awesome video looks like a awesome board
Thanks Dan. it has become my most used board.
my kid likes the yeeplay the most and my girl likes the meepo the most so it works out.
@@SeanOzz that’s awesome tried to get My Daughter to ride the Yeeplay but She’s afraid of it
Just keep trying on beginner mode.
@@SeanOzz 👍
I just ordered a gtr bamboo
I can't fuckin wait
Nice.
Sean, good video. Again... How does the old board sound when going across the wooden bridge? Enjoy and ride on.
ha ha ha ha
Well Sean that is an awesome Board. Off-road, is the belt shielded or can small gravel get kicked up and enter the belt and cogs? What was the problem and solution you stated about the belt system? I initially thought wow, $2K and then thought about how much drones cost and they are not carbon fiber except for maybe the XDynamics Evolve 2 drone ( which I don't hear to much about? I think still in preorder @ $3,700). Awesome edit. have fun building your new studio.
There is a shield. I hear some people get rocks stuck but knock on wood I have yet too.
And that is how I justified the purchase. I by drones that price that I use a couple times a month. This i use weekly.
im gonne receve mi carbone evolve this afternoon and im so excited !scuse mi english i am a quebecois!
Heck. Yes. How do you like it so far??
iv been on the fence with the wheel lock up stuff, how's the board treating you? awesome video!
I've heard of the lock up but still no issues with mine. Loving it
Did you see my new video about the lock up and my broken collarbone?
Hey Sean , you need to do a video with the 107 wheels
i do, i have been enjoying the pneumatic i have not even opened them yet. lol
i have the offroad wheels now too. maybe a in snow video. lol
Hey man, im sorry before, if my comment is irrelevant to this video
Im about to buy mavic air 2. I've seen your videos about it, but i have some questions, i hope you have time to answer this, because your answer will affects my decision to buy mavic air 2 (forgive me if my questions kinda long and my grammar is bad)
When flying mavic air 2, did we always have to point the antenna to the drone ?
Like, it has occusync 2.0 right ? So there should be no problem about the signal, (because occusync is unlike the wifi transmission drone which always depend with the signal between remote and drone, so we should always point it to the drone) right ? Or its not that simple ?
Lets just say, if there's 4 scenario :
1.If i flying it while facing backward with my remote against the drone
2.If i flying it outside, but the drone through tall buildings, and i flying the drone around that tall building until the connection between the drone and remote is blocked by those building
3.If i flying my drone when im at forest (full of trees) so the signal between remote and drone will have so much interference by the trees
4.If i am inside my bedroom or my car while my drone is outside, where signal between drone and remote will completely blocked by thick wall or anything
With those 4 each screnario, can i still control it until long range (lets just say more than 1 km) can i still do that ? Or if i did that the signal will get interference or lost instantly ? Did you ever did that kind of test ?
This my other question is kinda had the same concept. Based on your experiences after flying your mavic air 2 so far, did you ever encounter signal interference ? If yes, is it happen often or rarely ? How many times did it ever happen to you, and what scenario that makes you get signal interference ?
Thanks if you want to take your time to read my comment, id really appreciate that ! 🙏
occusynch is great but it is not straight magic. if you go behind skyscrapers it can lose signal. walls and so forth. you can fly from inside your car but you will not get as long a flight distance as you would if not having something blocking it.
hope that helps.
Thank you so much man for your response, really appreciate it, i've subscribe to you 🙏
Hope it was helpful.
@@SeanOzz I have another question, if you don't mind, hehe
Did you know the other drone type or brand (besides DJI) which has similar feature as Occusync 2.0 (special feature which gives great signal strength and video transmission even at long range or wifi polluted area, same concept as Occusync 2.0) or maybe DJI for now is the only brand which has this capability / special features ? Which means every other drone brand is wifi transmission drone ?
Autel evo has similar. Not as strong but similar.
Hahaha. OMG.... I want one! Lol.... WOWZERS...😜 DUDE THAT LOOKS AMAZING! CONGRATS AND PLEASE... DON'T KILL YOURSELF! 😱😱😱😱 LOL. GREAT VIDEO BRO! 👊👊
MIKEY
HA HA, this is just a warm up for snowboarding season which is coming soon.
gotta get those legs ready so i can test the skydio and action cams on the slopes.
@@SeanOzz OoooOo can't wait to watch Sean. That's def the right drone for the job! 100%...
Would this board be easy to learn for a person that never rode a regular skate board?
Yes. It has a slow beginner setting.
@@SeanOzz Thank you
watch out for the full speed cut out as well as all sorts of stuff.
i have researched a TON about that. actually considered making a video on it or what people experience.
Surged to me two years later. Check out the updated videos
@@SeanOzz nvm found it. And my original comment turns out to be true. As a guy who personally experienced a cutout on a brand new Bamboo GTR on its 3rd ever ride.
And it is being labeled as user error, which could be true and happens all the time, it is a design flaw which traditional single throttle remotes will eliminate. My situation back then, with the bamboo GTR, was different. I pushed the board to its max, on a group ride hosted by Evolve Ambassador, that the ESC (controller) mosfet or capacitor (or sth) brewed, simply because I was riding at the marketed speed limit. Wheel was locked, (it is behaving like phase short) with the board on and off.
As I, someone who test, review all the boards and other PEV, Evolve is not a trust worthy brand, at least with their boards. Even the Hadean is a ripoff, without mentioning the GTR2.
(I assume this will trigger some evolve fanboys, but truths are usually unpleasant for some)
That thing looks fun but I would kill myself on this thing and end up in a damn body cast 🤣🤣
You can live vicariously through me. Lol
@@SeanOzz that will work LOL
What would be the weight limit I way around 210-215lbs ?
I think its 250 or so. Check their website. I got up to 210 during quarantine and am down to 195 now and it does fine.
One last question Bro i seriously need your help, I have a tough decision to make, I don’t know if I should spend 2000 on my first board with the evolve gtr carbon I seen in your comments your road it once, but i weigh around 210-215lbs, but also I would like to invest in the ranger X3, although my only issue is that watching many reviews I don’t know If the ranger X3 is worth $1500 fact being that you can not swap the wheels out to cloud wheels and I would love to be able to swap wheels out for speed sometimes, can you give me your honest opinion Brotha, I could use the help
I ride my evolve carbon all the time. My other boards are what I let friends ride now. I have yet to try cloud wheels or the ranger x3 but the trucks look cheaper to me on it for that price. The evolve trucks look a bit beefier. If it was under a grand I would try one myself. But I think the evolve for the price Diffenderfer is a bit nicer.
@@SeanOzz that’s so real I agree they trucks definitely look cheap thank you so Much I’m going to go with that carbon gtr
To kinda play off this comment.
I’m new into esk8.
My first purchase was
Pre ordering the mile board phantom. Back on February 25th.
Looking into another but with AT wheels.
On the fence like I want value for my money if I’m gonna drop 2k on a board.
So I suppose recommendations?
Should I jump in with a off the shelf evolve AT or even the onsra AT
Or even more pricy Metroboard x
Or with that money just take the time to learn and build a board myself
Anyone build a board themselves?
Where’d you look personally to get your parts for your build? Recommendations? For a diy board
I’m looking for range and
Power. For commuting mostly Top speed isn’t too much a concern
Onsras is closest to my current push board
My only experience is with penny boards and my typical commuter board *loaded tan tien longboard
All I'm gonna say is helmet up. Been in some gnarly crashes with my GTX! 😂 #ejectorseat
gotta be careful going over 20 nd hitting the brakes and just the brakes in general. some gnarly falls due to that.
@@SeanOzz yeah you got to be ready to lean back pretty hardcore! I don't know if you can do it on the GTR but the GTX allows you to calibrate the brakes and set them up so they're a little bit more squishy so it doesn't lob you off the board.
Which technically I guess is in the r2 remote more than it is the board.
Yes it does. One problem is the brakes react different when going over 18-20 mph vs 16 and under. They have a drastic stop as if they want to suddenly slow the board which tosses those not expecting it. Similar to the yeeplay brakes. At slower speeds they work correctly. Hopefully evolve does a firmware update to correct his.
@@SeanOzz yeah you essentially have to set the expo on the brakes depending on the speed. I would first suggest doing a recalibration on the brakes and see if that fixes it. I used to have that issue but my buddy was really good about programming the r2 and took care of it for me.
Lol. I thought i was helping you. I did all that and was sharing info I've found out about it. This is not something you can change. The company needs to do a firmware update.specially going down a mountain at 25plus mph
Ps. Thanks for sharing your findings as well.
Whats the real range? 10 to 12 miles?
I think it was closer to 18.
@@SeanOzz really reliable 18 with hills n fast speed. Have you found anything better than this board in the last year?
The new version they released is for sure better. I don’t have one yet though.
Without hills you will get a further mileage than I did.
@@SeanOzz which one is the new version? How do I know Im not buying the old version when a new one is available? Do you hv a link
top speed?
with this set up (all terrain) i peak about 21-22 mph.
@@SeanOzz fuu.. not too much :(
If you do street wheels u might get a bit faster but its slow compared to snowboarding. There are other brands that hit 30plus. On concrete im good with 20ish. Lol
Get a One Wheel XR
if they want to send me one to use in the snow i am happy to. but my budget is tapped right now.
*HELMET?*
i have a skate helmet and a snowboard one. i wear it when going faster and more crazy.
@Sean Ozz Yep, understand. You are a good guy and I would hate to see you get hurt. You know, it's a matter of *when* not if.
Thats what they say. Also said that about all the years on a motorcycle and the when never happened (knock on wood)
hype? they are HATED on sooo much by all the cheap asses that REFUSE to understand QUALITY. evolve is BY FAR, the best esk8 brand under $2000.. if u have any questions, hit me up. im happy to help ... and fyi, the belt issue isnt a real problem. just needs to be tightened a bit. if u do it too tight, then u lose range and speed.. also, dont strip those bolts (motor bolts)
Thanks. I am loving mine so far. My other boards are lonely now. Ha ha
First !
;)
