I just purchase mine!!! im 46 and quit skating because life, but now im too exited about getting in a skate again!! it was a little hard because now we have soo much good options and they are not cheap, so thanks to this kind of fine reviews, i finally get to this nomad N1, 2 in 1. I haven't found a review with the mad street wheels but i think it will be fantastic!!! Thanks for this great review!
Since I have belt driven board for mainly street config, I'm going to get Nomad N1 gear drive next because I never had gear driven board in my life! I love to have multiple boards for this reason and it'd make sense to get gear drive next. I'm looking forward to getting this board next!! Another opportunities: I wish the side LED were a bit more thicker and longer. And you are right about flashing. It could be super annoying when riding and engaging brakes. We should have setting to control how the lights behaves via remote. Hope this gets improved. And congratulations on 10k subs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Again… Awesome content. Great informative video. Congrats on 10k. It’s amazing that it took this long, especially with your content and personality. Well deserved level!
Well done on the 10K you deserve each any every one with the work you put in! BTW loved your live chat video the other day....lots of topics to cover with an international flavour
Thanks mate and Yes, not sure who is there designer or dreamer but so far they have really hit some home runs The Nomad is insane (side note. I named it)
Thanks David, yea man when a board comes along and is that much different from anything else and performs as well as it should it gets my vote, Also the face that it’s power scares me a little is awesome!!! Cheers
Oh man! Still awaiting my Nyx Z1 delivery from E Crooz and I've got buyers remorse now, wondering if I should have gone with the Nomad instead! Thanks for the great video as always mate.
The torque is insane. Looks like anything above 90A would be an absolute overkill for electric skateboards. I wish you could compare Tynee's Explorer new 80A ESC vs their old 60A ESC, maybe it's just as powerful as N1
@@scottdaviesyoutube Haha I know mate, I’m about ready for some berserk race board upgrade next year I think so track nights are gonna get intense soon 😅
Again scott, many thanks for your work : priceless ! I only got one question and... one "complain" Question : How does it carve compared a DKP board ? is it the same feeling or is it really different ? i don't reallay care about stability at spped, it is more a question about a 20/30km/h cruising speed and carving feeling. Complain : I use gear drive on My GTS super. At the beginning, i was in love with that system. BUT : as it is "gear ratio locked" you can't switch wheels and put for example street wheels. Yes... you can, but the acceleration, braking and control will be terrible. So, why they don't provide the best battery configuration with a belt drive system which is honnestly, much more convenient and practical for people (and only for that purpose) who wants to switch wheels easily. Sorry, was a long comment 😀
did you ever get an answer to your question? for a carving specific setup would you lean more towards a dkp over a tkp? or how about even an independent suspension ?
@@scottdaviesyoutube thank you for the reply! Looking to see if 120MM cloudwheels will fit! If it will then I will be pre ordering one for sure. I am close to purchasing Ownboard zeus pro carbon but this one perform better!
⚡🤙🏼 *Been waitin so long that I didn't even wanna wait 5seconds to skip the ad* 😂⚡ Worth the wait! Love the "wedge" split angle setup, just the right amount of concave. The closeup shot of the trucks 🤩 Such a nice deck/design. Interestin that the "boosted/meepo" remote shape is comin back to non ling-yi boards 😂 Nice clean design so I guess it shouldn't be too surprising that a couple of brands are doin this. Yeah flashin white/blue lights when you brake might confuse drivers/other riders. Flashin red is the only colour that this is ideal with. Enjoyed this one!
@@scottdaviesyoutube well going flat out gives the best real life range in worst case scenario. Be a use if the range full send Is Good it be great for regular riders. Lol. I know it's a pain doing range tests but you make them soo fun to watch lol. Get it Brotha
Got this & a Meepo Voyager, both are powerful boards,I got the M4s remote,wish they would give a breakdown on all what the remote functions mean & what they do,also I love the lights
Excellent vid!! Thought I saw a 4wd direct drive board on one of their promo pics.. Have you heard anything about that? If it is a thing, are you planning to review it?
Honestly for me it’s too hard to pick The acceleration of the Nomad is intoxicating but I LOVE the 60+ Kph top speed of the Zeus Sorry to sit on the fence Nomad is my race board Zeus is my every day or group ride board
Kia ora bro, great review been hanging out for this one so thank you. Any idea of range (gut feel estimate? won’t hold you to it). Looks like this could be a go for me 🤙🏽
Lots of great quality components, why do you think they made a bamboo board with no flex , that’s one of the features I love most about my bamboo board ?
Yea this isn’t really a “bamboo” board it’s a performance board that happens to have Bamboo Maple and fibreglass in it. If it had flex it would not handle as well as it does (or so I’m told)
Hey Scotty, love the review mate! Seems like they really missed the opportunity to upgrade the headlights with some decent Smc’s. Would have also loved an RGB option on there as well. Out of the three models which do you think is the best value for money??? Cheers
I think for longevity I’d personally choose the 14S3P gear drive It’s a smaller capacity but has much more longevity in cell life in the P42as over the life of the pack
Hey Scott, this is a fantastic board and it's reasonably priced. Still not sure if i want this or the explorer. How's Acedeck's customer service, do you know?
So Acedeck has proven to be very good in the customer service They have a good team and from what I’ve seen are very easy to deal with and respond quickly (time zone dependant)
@@scottdaviesyoutube that's good to hear, I've heard Aiden at Tynee is also pretty responsive. So now it's between do I want slower but flexy and less expensive, or faster and stiff for a bit more? Choices, choices. Either way I'm gonna wait until I see the gear drive tear down vid to decide if it's a way I want to go at all. Thanks for a great review as always!
Great review as always and congratulations on 10k subs 🎉🔥 It's really a shame that they don't offer the 14s4p version with belt drive. Not having the opportunity to switch to street wheels is a deal breaker for me, since I really don't like pneumatic tires at all. Acedeck really missed out on this one...
I lose track of these boards, brands etc. I guess on roads and long distance they’re good if legal. Even at legal speeds, Onewheel is just so much more versatile, agile etc. Boards are more convenient to carry, ie roll them along, rather than have to carry. Good for luggage as well, ie stick a load in between your feet. Terrible with kerbs etc though. Onewheel has two hands free though. I have 2 e-boards and one Onewheel pint - OW gets all my riding, despite its terrible torque etc. Fun factor is enormous once you ride switch and do 180s etc, even though parent company is not great. Would be interesting to hear your views, maybe a comparison video.
@@utahpatriot4807 ha ha as mentioned, I have 2 e longboards, PU and pneumatic tyres, actual longboards and a surfskate. I can assure you that there is a comparison to made
So if you had to pick your first electric board would you do the ow pint again? I'm torn because these go faster and further for the price but I've been looking at the onewheelpintx and it looks so fun.
Yeah I would say a OW Pint is fine as a first board, depending on your balance capability. If you’re not so great at balance, have a friend to lean on while you learn. One good test/prep, is whether you can stand on a bosu ball. Advantages to ESK8 as a first board is really all about better stability while you’re learning board basics, if you’re already used to board riding of any kind then that won’t be as important, just pick the board form that appeals to you the best. I’ve had good surfers just jump on my OW Pint and just basically start moving - and I’ve had board novices give it a go, and they just need an arm to lean on while they learn for a couple of sessions and master how to bail. Newbies who jump on my ESK8s (longboard) have no problem with stability, and just have to get used to the acceleration/decelaration forces based on throttle input. No matter what you’re learning on, if you’re patient, and don’t start going faster than your skill level allows, you’ll be fine. I personally don’t trust the electronics enough to go much faster than I can sprint, ie to run out if things go wrong, even though my skills aren’t too bad - with an ESK8, at least you have options to brake with traditional skateboard techniques - depending on your shoe and wheel choices, and skill level….. With a OW, it’s VERY hard to brake if the electronics fail, really beyond just about anyone’s abilities, and it would not be considered braking, more maintaining skidded balance. Having said that, my only bad fall has been off an ESK8 (as my first learning board) - didn’t know how to fall really well, or to run out, or really how to get over a concrete lip - only banged my knee though. OW Pint was my second board, and the learning curve was real for me, solved that by just committing to ride it every day while I walked my dog - learning to balance on it SLOW was good for me. Anyway good luck with it. And yes, knowing everything I now know across boards - just pick the form that appeals to you most, and commit to learning. Oh, and out of any of my boards, it’s the OW that people really want to get on and try, not really sure why. One obscure advantage to OW is that it’s really good cross training for learning how to foil board, not sure if that appeals to you or not.
only $200 more for a lot more range/speed/features than an ownboard belt kit but do I need that for an errands board hmmmmm (mandatory I'd still swap out the deck for one of my 9" park boards comment on noseless short board)
Opportunity: If you decide to provide the customer with 3 models, why not allow people to choose belt drive with the highest capacity battery and best ESC option so that the customer has the option to use urethane wheels?

This an absolute beast. This is my new favorite board.
Love your videos man great job 👍
Nice, this is a good review. Looking for a powerful e board and finding good reviews is hard. This is good
Awesome Scott, can you talk a little bit more about the speed stability performance in relation to the turning radius?
Great review Scott . If you want help racking up km's give me a yell . That looks like one awesome board
Looks like a top board, great to hear your suggested improvements as always. 10K🤘
Thanks mate and Yes, not sure who is there designer or dreamer but so far they have really hit some home runs
The Nomad is insane (side note. I named it)
@@scottdaviesyoutube That's one for the Esk8 trivia quiz! Good name.
Good idea
Like always great review, thank you
And and always, thanks for watching !!
great review seriously considering this one
Nice addition to the EUCs !
Nice was just looking at one of these, looking forward to a range test
My prediction is 35-40km
How does the stability compare to the Zeus AWD Max?
great review! How does the Nomad N1 compare with the Ares X1 2023? Seems like same specs... Just different deck really? what do you think?
Love this content! 😍
Thanks mate !! Appreciate the support
Great review Scott and congrats on 10k. The fact that it's your new favorite board says a lot, especially with all the current competition.
Thanks David, yea man when a board comes along and is that much different from anything else and performs as well as it should it gets my vote,
Also the face that it’s power scares me a little is awesome!!!
Cheers
How do you compare this the propel gt from a value standpoint?
How do you compare with Tynee explorer?
Which one handles better?
Oh man! Still awaiting my Nyx Z1 delivery from E Crooz and I've got buyers remorse now, wondering if I should have gone with the Nomad instead!
Thanks for the great video as always mate.
Depends what you want it got
Street ridding carving etc, maybe
The above and even more off road stick with NYX,
The torque is insane. Looks like anything above 90A would be an absolute overkill for electric skateboards. I wish you could compare Tynee's Explorer new 80A ESC vs their old 60A ESC, maybe it's just as powerful as N1
Coming soon ! Just installed it
I can tell you already it’s a big improvement
Wait until you try 150+ amps like a lot of DIY boards, some stooge raceboards are at like 500a now too
I know absolutely crazy !!
I was careful to say “production board”
😂
@@scottdaviesyoutube Haha I know mate, I’m about ready for some berserk race board upgrade next year I think so track nights are gonna get intense soon 😅
I'm also very interrested in this Tynee Explorer 60A/80A comparison 😃 as I'm considering to buy this board.
Congrats on 10,000 subs.
Mount a mic on the deck, I want to hear it at top speed

Great video like always. But is there any way to put street wheels on it? ESC /remote option and pulleys?
Acedeck nomad n1 or Propel pivot GT in your opinion?
Been waiting for this one
Hope you enjoy it !
Nest will be a range test
Then a tear down and see how it’s all wearing after 250-300km
Hey! on the belt drive 60A Version. Are we able to replace the wheels to cloudwheel/street wheel etc. Thank you
In theory yes not sure if there is enough ground clearance, let me ask the AD team and get back to you

Scott - what drone do you use mate?
I've got designs on giving ya some competition ;)
There we go🎉
How does the gear drive go accelerating whilst at mid speed?
Amazingly well, the acceleration curve is very “punchy” all the way up to 43-47kph
That was fun to watch. Very curious about the range you get in that 14s
My guess is 35-40km in this format
If it was a lower amp esc I’d predict more
The issue is I just love going flat out all the time 😂

The acceleration of the Nomad is intoxicating but I LOVE the 60+ Kph top speed of the Zeus
