Heel straps for the Urban Carver. You don't need to take the bindings off. The heel strap can be swiveled straight up and above the main foot strap, or removed completely. Then adjust the main foot strap loose enough so you can bail out if needed, but can still lean into the straps for sharper turning, or when the board tries to throw you off. You can also run a higher durometer shock block, as the straps let you crank those channel trucks side to side.
2 months of riding it how's it doing....... I'm hecka looking to buy one or a scooter I cant decide 😂 😂 but ill be spending a lot so I'm learning a lot too
I really haven't had any time on an evolve Hadean, i've only tried it out for a short few blocks. the Renegade is a lot of fun though, the bindings make this board a totally different experience for me!
Great video, I'm considering buying one but as a first timer it's nice to get so much helpful info ☺️ How responsive are the accelerator and brakes? Guessing it's a case of you go faster the more the trigger is pulled and if you let go you'll just freewheel
So yes the remote controls how fast you go by spinning the wheel forward and than pulling back using as the motors as breaks or can also free roll by letting go of the wheel on the remote.
Great question. on the controller you can change acceleration, speed and brake in increments of about 7. So you can really choose how you want it. Which is 1 the the main reasons I am thinking about getting this
Actually i think I am slightly mistaken. You can do this but I believe it's on the app not the remote. But I think on the remote there are 3 different modes to choose from regarding acceleration, speed and brake
Two different boards! The evolve is an urban / off roading and the ruckus is really a street performance driven! Both have the same battery pack but that’s about it, so what are you looking to do?
Awesome video of the Renegade! Im shocked at how much carve u got from channel trucks. I've tried MBS matrix 2 and i find sharp turns the downside. Good for high speed stability tho... I wonder how stable these trucks are going top speed?
@@ajplant96 I got the yellow soft in the front and orange regular in the rear. I weight 150lbs so it's difficult to do sharp turns... I can try yellow soft in the rear but that could get sketchy for high speed.
@@esk8Kyle Yeah orange in the back at your weight would’ve been the issue, I only put harder duro bushings in the back when using bindings and can turn tighter than my dkp board though that has the hardest duro riptide kit installed these days so not like it turns as well as it used to anyway. Matrix II are honestly pretty sloppy since switching to MBS’ new trucks so I would only use them now for low or high speed setups vs something in between for my personal preference, they work great loose on my prototipo which has a short wheelbase making it an awesome carving board that has no issues with tight turns but speed-wise I wouldn’t take it over 45kph, whereas my mountainboard with the Matrix III trucks I have softest duro front and back but back in the outer position with bindings and that’s stable over 50 though I haven’t been really testing it for high speed, just keeping up at those speeds on group rides.
@@DrewElia Stable at high speed! Very interesting. I had very different experiences with spring bushings on channel trucks... At high speeds it's gets kinda wobbly
Bought a Hadeon bamboo and 4 months later they revealed this board....Love the hadeon but I might've waited if I'd known. :) oh well....who says I can't have 2?
there are a few companies out there that are specialized in mountain boards alone, trampa, apex, are a few that are the more popular ones. Acedeck just released the NYX Z3 mountain board that you can put bindings onto them. otherwise nothing else really is a " production " style its more in the realm of DIY builders. companies like Mboards though can build you out anything you want for your needs as well!
@@DrewEliaawesome! this is definitely high up on my list. Was holding off on the hadean because of splash issues I was reading about on other forums. This board looks like a proper winner!
Trampa has been making the perfect electric mountain boards and skateboards for years and years and years and years don’t buy anything other than a Trampa just buy yourself a Trampa. Simple done ✅
Alright. Trampa, that’s it done. 😆 I’ve ridden trampa before they are great, it’s just hard to navigate their website and some people just want simple plug and play, along with a warranty to repair like evolve has . No Doug t trampa leads the way in off roading they kill it, but other companies also are making off roading capable boards now.
Isn’t it funny that all of these TH-cam reviewers never mention the serious issues with these boards? Almost like they are incentivized to not criticize the board or the company behind it. These videos are well made but should not be taken as an unbiased review. Meepo v5 lineups motor sleeves falling off comes to mind. Never mentioned it even though the first video on the board on TH-cam had it happen in the video. Crazy dangerous but it would hurt relations I’m guessing.
First off thank you for the compliment on the being well made, that means a lot to me considering how much effort I put forward in each of my videos! Each TH-camr has their own experience with products, personally I’ve never had a wheel fall off while I was riding my meepo v5. If it did you can bet I would 💯 mention that as a problem, but I didn’t have issues with those products. Apply this thought to any other review situation, take car reviews for example. One Honda accord engine blew up from a car and truck magazine. But car and driver, car weekly, Honda lovers, ( fake car magazine names) Should we say that every Honda accord engine will blow up in every car review going forward based off of one car engine blowing up? No product is perfect, and trust me if I have a bad experience with one of my products I’ll mention it in the review. Just because one other review had an issue I should refer back to his video and say “hey I had a great experience with my product but let me refer back to this other guys review where he had a bad experience?” Does that make any sense? Thanks for the compliment on the well made part again I truly appreciate the feedback when it comes to the people watching the video. But you have to understand that just cause a few other people have had one off issues doesn’t mean that the whole is a problem. Every product ever made has “lemons” that’s why we have warranty’s for help with aftercare.
Also i think "urban attack" is a good word. People overate offroading compared to just messing around golf parks, street features, etc. is so much fun! Offroading is really difficult for skateboards, but being capable to mess around "cityscapes" is where boards like this can shine.
Agreed, I tried off-roading with it, as you can see at the end of the video and it was just a mess and not nearly as fun, granted it was a day after it rained for 7 days straight. But I’m going to keep trying it out!
@@DrewElia yeah the problem is I’ve grown up with jeeps razors, four wheelers and dirt bikes so to me those are 1 million times better at off Roading ha ha

A mountainboard is next on my list for sure and man that looks fun!
Mountain boards or boards with bindings unlock a whole other level of
Tech is getting MODERN. Carving looks sick on that.

Correct! The bindings are removable from just slipping it out of the crank downs
This is the review I was looking for!
Thanks for checking it out brother! Hope to skate soon together!!!
Asbury has the best music scene🤙🏼 I am psyched to see it off road and on trails.
Stay tuned!
Thank you for the review! Are the trucks adjustable? The other boards had a double Kingpin that you can really fine-tune what about these ones.
These are channel trucks with spring bushings that’s the point of tube the ride feel. Swapping out for harder or softer bushings
Thanks for the review! I want to see what this board does on the trails, technical trails
Stay tuned and subscribe to the channel!
Finally content on this board
Thanks my man!

Very well put together video, great editing. I need a filmer like yours 👌 the board looks nice
Thanks so much for the compliment! Glad you liked the review! Let me know !
I like the Evolve Hadean and the Renagade looks like a fun board thats different from the rest..❤😀👍
I really haven't had any time on an evolve Hadean, i've only tried it out for a short few blocks. the Renegade is a lot of fun though, the bindings make this board a totally different experience for me!
Well done Drew. Great review 👏
Thanks so much for checking it out! Greatly appreciate the support man!
"Let me tell you - it's definitely, a fun time..." - aggressively accelerates, almost falls.
Hahahaha truth. Whoops I forgot we’re all perfect.
Finally nice enough to ride today. Looked like you had fun
Yeah I did haha this was over the course of a few Days but yes today was a nice day to get out
Drew amigooooo you keep upping the quality of your videos! Love the edit 🤌!! Board looks awesome! Tempting! 🤙🤙

I am comparing the evolve renegade or a propel ruckus what would you suggest?

Know what bushings you had in and how tight they were for the matrix 2 trucks? They can get uber carvey even without bindings if they’re set up for it

What are our other strap in board options?

Am weight 220 you think it will hold me
I’m 220 as well. You’ll be good!
Renegade vs Velar pls?
I don’t have a velar!!! 😞
@@DrewElia partner with another TH-camr that has one , then compare both board together 😎
@alibabarouge no one has one around meb
is it ok in the mud?
Off roading it works, I’m putting out a second video but I wouldn’t go into deep mud? But like puddles and stuff it goes through
@@DrewEliaawesome! this is definitely high up on my list. Was holding off on the hadean because of splash issues I was reading about on other forums. This board looks like a proper winner!

Just don't like that remote. It's a personal thing .
Totally understandable
It's definitely much better than the R2 remote.
@ryank2780 no what I mean is that if your accelerating and touch that brake . Your off . Can't happen with a scroll type remote. Much more intuitive.
Yes this is a major thing that puts me off also.
And from what I've heard the dead man switch is disabled when going over 5 miles per hour 😱🤯😫??
Overpriced garbage. Acedeck all the way.
Acedeck makes great products definitely.
The remote is aweful. The glass breaks if u look at it wrong. O really hate that remote
I’ve heard mixed reviews on it, I haven’t had any issues with the remote yet but I’ll report on it if I do!
Q: what's the hardest part of electric skateboarding?

@@sethmcneill5283 grew up in Maine my man, I know all about dirt bikes and snowmobiles 😂 miss my yz450….
Ride with bindings is noticeable difference and much fun with any offroad board. 🤘🛹
