@@brandonrose8123 Yeah but Inboard M1 is not a budget board. It's quite expensive alone and thinking that you must get spare batteries to get a decent range, yeah it's really expensive.
I am almost tempted to get this for the integrated lighting system... and the kicktail...and the swap-able parts...and the app that I probably won't use
Great review! I was very tenpted to get the Evolve Stoke, but after finding out about the Exway Wave and then seeing this review im sold! Definitely getting one! 🤘
Nice industrial designs, love it. I’m also in Shanghai and use Lou board as my main transportation. Those ridiculous long heavy raining days leaves some scarves on me. Thank god the weather is better so that I can ride it everywhere now.
In America it's so hard to ride Non-all terrain boards because of the terrible roads. But a board like this would be so awesome to have in a nicer country. You have some beautiful pavement there Daniel!
Float like a butterfly , sting like a wave is something I would alwayse say pretending that that it made sense. I disagree with a short boards being a less smooth ride on rough Terrain. What I always do with my regular skate is lift the front wheels and do Microhops and micro lifts over bumps and cracks. to conquer to terrain like that Cobblestone Road you better believe that I'll be hopping so fast that I'm basically levitating;) a over unexpected 1 ft wide potholes I've survived with this technique, shorter boards with tails make this much easier to accomplish. With longer boards that have no tell you can still just do the hop without the hip. Thank you so much for such an amazing badass detailed review! Steady As She Goes.
I just got my meepo mini and I'm loving it! I was able to get it in 7 days with fast shipping. I don't want to wait 40 days to get a board. But this wave looks sick!
Hey Daniel, just bought a new flex from exway and used your discount code combined with Ronnie's for a total $40usd off, thanks mate. Your videos are great, informative and fun.
I was planning to get Ranger x2, But now after you review on wave I think it's definitely worth it to wait for exway Atlas because of exway innovations. Thanks man.
I'm a little torn. I ordered the Flex yesterday but six months from now when it finally arrives, I'm fearing Exway will release a 2.0 version with swappable batteries and the "party in the rear" lights. I hope Exway releases a direct drive kit. That would be sweeet!
I just lived in Shanghai for 2 years, but never got an electric skateboard while I was there. Do you think Jing'an and Xuhui and good locations for boarding? Any recommendations for good spots? Edit: Ha nevermind! Just recognized you driving by the Kerry Center near Jing'an station - that answers my question lol.
Great video Daniel as always! Some comments on it: I don’t think that the battery is less water resistant if it is fully sealed like other exway batteries. Where is the ESC on this board? Is it integrated to the battery? If that’s the case, it would be more expensive to purchase every new set of battery because the ESC is integrated with it.
1:21 Thank you so much for this video, 6ah battery specs confirmed! (I messaged them on facebook and sent emails but got no response after two days; these specific specs aren't listed anywhere on their website...)
I just bought it with cloudwheels because of your great recommodation. I am abt. 14 and really looking forward to this board. Of course with protective gear from TSG. Keep up the great work I am a big fan of you. 😁
What about the Backfire Mini as an Competitor? I ride this Board for half a year and I love it! There are some drawbacks (no protection on the back and the weak brakes in eco) but all in all this is a Great Board. Did you ride it?
Hi Daniel. Thanks for your video. I was going to go for the hub motors but then, I hear you said " If you bought the hub motors and realised the mistake it was...". Do you believe Belt driven is a better option ? Thanks
I also noticed the comment and was thinking the same... the problem is the maintenance... but Im more inclined to the belts... but I just want to know the specs on hub vs riot to make my final decision ^^
Hey, thanks! Your reviews are no doubt next level and I love the detail that goes in to your editing. This one might just be my entry to electric. Thought about a larger one but I think my Tan Tien will have to do for bombing hills ;) Peace!
打你哦宽 lmao hahaha. For those of you who can't read chinese, in the title he wrote Daniel Kwan Reviews in Chinese, but his name is a play on sound that actually reads as "Beat you up Kwan Skateboard"....clever
it's too bad that the trucks are way too wide for a small bord. I'm longing for the day when you get a proper electrical slalom board. Or just a board like with say 120-150mm trucks as 50-degree baseplate. 45degre are downhill degrees nothing that you want a small cruiser.
If you're in the US and looking for a short board like this, but the power and range of a long board, I'd recommend the Build Kit Board Dual Motor. The thing is a beast.
Amazing board! Can you also make a video to test the cloud wheels over little puddles since some of my friends told me that the cloud wheels may be more unstable than the original wheels on wet road. Thank you!
nice video !! Thanks again mr Kwan !! the traveling option would be the only good reason to get this board in my opinion, be ready for the 2-3 months waiting for the shipping , Exway has been really really bad with shipping recently.
I'd love to have that, but I already have my Onewheel XR. Not the tiniest of boards to carry around, and much more expensive, but it's sooo comfortable.
Thanks for all your hard work and dedication to these products sir! Can I ask if you've had an opinion on the shark wheels electric skateboard? I'm sure u haven't got to test it but any early feelings towards its specs?
Hello Daniel, awesome review! I have an Exway flex riot and I am not sure what the R and B stand for in the remote control. I assume R is rear motor and B is for brake battery level? How do they work? Why didn't Exway design in a way that both R and B have the same value....I am just curious. The wave looks sick!
Love your videos man! Looking into getting an exway, it's going to be this one or maybe the Flex. Unsure at this point, but I'm sure I'll love whatever one I choose.
Why is the hub motor a bad choice? Why do you think belt drive is better? I thought most people find hub motor gives more smooth ride and able to push? Is there any thing that i am missing?
is the wave riot drive somehow interchangeable with X1Pro? not need to know if software is compatible with a different kv motor, but just curious to know if possible for this kind of drive train swap for a wider belt option
Hi Daniel, You say there is no competitor for this board but what do you think of Elwing Powerkit Nimbus ? About same size and same specs, the most powerful version is double motor and it has a swappable battery too (but longer to replace).
Would you recommend this board as a first beginner board? Or should I get a like a backfire g2. I want a short board but realized the cons. But really like the small size
Finally a review of this board :). Totally agree with you, this is the best shortboard no question. idk why everyone else is still trying to use hubs on their shortboards...
Some of us are hub purists, not too fond of belts snapping and love the free-rolling ability that hub motors give. Road vibration does suck but it depends where you ride and how much flex your deck has.
Daniel mate, your videos are so so good. I'm actually envious of the boards and the video editing. You ever come to the UK we are going for a ride 😎 The wave literally held no interest for me until I watched this tbh.
Loved many of your reviews until you just said hubs were a mistake. The belt drive noise isn't good for some people. My Meepo Hubs give tons of torque and power, I'd never regret buying them.
looks like the engineers decided to actually think during the design process, unlike most other e-skate companies
True, but most of them have been making gradual changes; things like larger battery packs and faster motors.
Boards are finally getting to the quality we all want and have the features we’ve all been asking for, love this board
And it's a budget one too!
Inboard M1 had all these features, and they were the first to do hub motors...too bad they're now defunct
@@brandonrose8123 Yeah but Inboard M1 is not a budget board. It's quite expensive alone and thinking that you must get spare batteries to get a decent range, yeah it's really expensive.
You deserve way more subscribers. Your videos are the most thorough and enjoyable electric skateboard videos on TH-cam. Awesome video Daniel!
This! ^
damn, might be time to jump the boosted ship for exway. Thanks.
An official endorsement by Jesus Christ himself.
Unfortunately boosted seems to have jumped ship themselves lol.
Is this board still good, or any upgrades been made? I seen it on Amazon
Great video.loving the current theme !!
Yessssss I was waiting on this so long
Just pre-ordered it, lets pray I receive it before July of 2021 👏🏻
Jad can I get one
When it's broken you wont have anyone to call
I am almost tempted to get this for the integrated lighting system... and the kicktail...and the swap-able parts...and the app that I probably won't use
Well the important part about the app is the adjustable acceleration settings and the odometer and such.
@@Cabry also firmware updates which is pretty important
lol trust me you're gonna use the app because there's software updates and adjustable acceleration curve tensity
Haha you’re awesome man thanks for another great review. Love your humor and clean transitions/editing.
Thanks for the shout out man! Always love your videos! Love the Trist trucks! I wish they weren’t sold out I would get them for my other boards!
Great review! I was very tenpted to get the Evolve Stoke, but after finding out about the Exway Wave and then seeing this review im sold! Definitely getting one! 🤘
Love your reviews. They're always entertaining, great scenography. And there's no one explaining things better than you imo.
Just bought mine yesterday used the code thanks bro I’ll keep y’all updated on it.
Damn you already are riding the wave and my flex hasn’t even arrived
That's because he lives in China
How long do you wait
I've been hesitating on getting a new eboard since i prefer short boards. Been hovering over exway flex for months, so glad I waited!
Have you enjoyed this board?
Wow the swappable battery system on this is exactly what I've been wanting
You seen the one on Revel Drive's kit? Uses 4-6ah swappable batteries too and uses direct-drive motors.
I love how dkwan puts so much effort into videos
Nice industrial designs, love it. I’m also in Shanghai and use Lou board as my main transportation. Those ridiculous long heavy raining days leaves some scarves on me. Thank god the weather is better so that I can ride it everywhere now.
In America it's so hard to ride Non-all terrain boards because of the terrible roads. But a board like this would be so awesome to have in a nicer country. You have some beautiful pavement there Daniel!
Literally just destroyed my board on American roads
Editing perfect as always :)
You got me sold on the lighting!!

Judas Blewit same here meepo mini is such a beast
@@SE_Tanks seriously so fun and the price is great to. I just looked up the wave and it's gonna be alot more.
Expat wave is already in production. Won’t take that long!
Exway is so innovative on many points. I don't understand why other brands and the DIY don't copy it.
He should test the wave with all terrain wheels🤣 that would be a great vid.
Yes!
Hey Daniel, just bought a new flex from exway and used your discount code combined with Ronnie's for a total $40usd off, thanks mate. Your videos are great, informative and fun.
How long did you wait for it to arrive?
@@emm4558 About 3 weeks, from China to Australia. Worth the wait, great board.
Wow looks like Exway really nailed it with this one. Thanks for the sick review!
I was planning to get Ranger x2, But now after you review on wave I think it's definitely worth it to wait for exway Atlas because of exway innovations.
Thanks man.
wow amazing. Thanks Daniel, I bought an Wowgo 3X because of your recomendation, and have loved it from day 1.
I really hope you get paid by Exway for this detailed well documented review
Great review Danniel thanks for your work. Btw I love your color grading, very much on point
I'm a little torn. I ordered the Flex yesterday but six months from now when it finally arrives, I'm fearing Exway will release a 2.0 version with swappable batteries and the "party in the rear" lights. I hope Exway releases a direct drive kit. That would be sweeet!
im going to be pissed if they release a new board before i get my Flex i ordered 2 months ago
@@blank3406 been waiting 3 months. Im not even sure if ill even get it anymore
love to see a comparison to the miles phantom
Ok I’m definitely getting this board... As soon as I can afford it. Great review btw! 👍
Lol I'm gonna end up wanting to get every board you recommend at this rate.
Hey Daniel so I ordered my flex in beginning of July or the second batch of exway flex. I live in Canada when could I expect my board to arrive
a queen is never to late, everybody else is simple to early
NIIICE video man, I can see the board bringing a lot of people into ESK8 which is a win for everybody.
Hi all,
A noob question here, can the exway wave brake light be turned off? I'd rather not draw the attention to myself.
Yea my thoughts also
finally they work on a swappable battery
the strap for carrying it, did you buy it or make it? Would love to know more about it, please!!
SAME, We need it Daniel!!
Its a yoga mat strap 😅
I just lived in Shanghai for 2 years, but never got an electric skateboard while I was there. Do you think Jing'an and Xuhui and good locations for boarding? Any recommendations for good spots?
Edit: Ha nevermind! Just recognized you driving by the Kerry Center near Jing'an station - that answers my question lol.
Great video Daniel as always!
Some comments on it:
I don’t think that the battery is less water resistant if it is fully sealed like other exway batteries.
Where is the ESC on this board? Is it integrated to the battery? If that’s the case, it would be more expensive to purchase every new set of battery because the ESC is integrated with it.
I believe it’s between the deck and rear truck.
1:21 Thank you so much for this video, 6ah battery specs confirmed! (I messaged them on facebook and sent emails but got no response after two days; these specific specs aren't listed anywhere on their website...)
I just bought it with cloudwheels because of your great recommodation. I am abt. 14 and really looking forward to this board. Of course with protective gear from TSG. Keep up the great work I am a big fan of you. 😁
OMG that is mee 😂
Awesome review as always
Quick question: where did you get the strap to hold your board over your shoulder?
I forget. It’s a yoga mat sling.
I'm in Shanghai and I want one now. Subscribed.
What about the Backfire Mini as an Competitor? I ride this Board for half a year and I love it! There are some drawbacks (no protection on the back and the weak brakes in eco) but all in all this is a Great Board. Did you ride it?
Hi Daniel. Thanks for your video. I was going to go for the hub motors but then, I hear you said " If you bought the hub motors and realised the mistake it was...". Do you believe Belt driven is a better option ? Thanks
I was joking but I personally prefer belt drive more than hub motors.

Yo Daniel, can you compare the ridability of the wave with lou board? Also size etc? Cheerios!
Hey, thanks! Your reviews are no doubt next level and I love the detail that goes in to your editing. This one might just be my entry to electric. Thought about a larger one but I think my Tan Tien will have to do for bombing hills ;) Peace!
I think I am going to get this instead of the flex riot. I love the idea of traveling with this and the battery interchangeable both sold me!
Good call out on the available standing width being the same as a longboard while being physically shorter.
I just ordered this board! Can’t wait to shred on it
have you receieve it yet? I just order mine a couple days and was wondering what shipping times are
@@ye11owb0y21 they've delayed it to mid june, unfortunately. they said the board is in super high demand. i ordered in near the end of april
打你哦宽 lmao hahaha. For those of you who can't read chinese, in the title he wrote Daniel Kwan Reviews in Chinese, but his name is a play on sound that actually reads as "Beat you up Kwan Skateboard"....clever
Cool thanks for the updates. Stay safe.
Your title said affordable. I didn't hear a price mentioned.
Probably the same price as the Flex model or slightly more.
it's too bad that the trucks are way too wide for a small bord. I'm longing for the day when you get a proper electrical slalom board.
Or just a board like with say 120-150mm trucks as 50-degree baseplate. 45degre are downhill degrees nothing that you want a small cruiser.
Bro I really like your videos 👏👏👏
Hello Daniel, did you enjoy Com Truise music? Great review as always, can't wait to see the atlas
If you're in the US and looking for a short board like this, but the power and range of a long board, I'd recommend the Build Kit Board Dual Motor. The thing is a beast.
Great board! Wish i could make also a review in this board. By the way, does the riot motor can be reverse in wave?
The burn of the Evolve review 😂😂😂 that was a nice touch
Amazing board! Can you also make a video to test the cloud wheels over little puddles since some of my friends told me that the cloud wheels may be more unstable than the original wheels on wet road. Thank you!
nice video !! Thanks again mr Kwan !! the traveling option would be the only good reason to get this board in my opinion, be ready for the 2-3 months waiting for the shipping , Exway has been really really bad with shipping recently.
Tell us about the cool carrying straps pls
Great video! I can’t wait!
I'd love to have that, but I already have my Onewheel XR. Not the tiniest of boards to carry around, and much more expensive, but it's sooo comfortable.
i love yer reviews. i want to try hub motors but am unsure as i am larger, @240lbs, but i like the ease of maintenance idea for bub. any suggestions?
Thanks for all your hard work and dedication to these products sir! Can I ask if you've had an opinion on the shark wheels electric skateboard? I'm sure u haven't got to test it but any early feelings towards its specs?
how does it compare to the revel kit on a short deck?
everythign bout this board seems great, what was the range again?
The wave is amazing
can you do an incline test?
Finally! I think the rear light need more extra brightness to it..
hey man i'm probably late to the party. just wanna ask would you recommend this board over the ownboard mini?
Man I was wondering the same exact thing. The Ownboard M1 Mini looks like a quality, cheaper alternative
@@crazyskunk96 yea i meant there aren’t many mini boards anyways. I hope Daniel can make a video comparing them all together hah
Hello Daniel, awesome review! I have an Exway flex riot and I am not sure what the R and B stand for in the remote control. I assume R is rear motor and B is for brake battery level? How do they work? Why didn't Exway design in a way that both R and B have the same value....I am just curious. The wave looks sick!
R = remote battery indicator, B = board battery indicator
Do you have any info from them about when the smaller battery will come out? Also where is the USB port located?
Smaller battery? I'd prefer a larger 8ah one!
Love your videos man! Looking into getting an exway, it's going to be this one or maybe the Flex. Unsure at this point, but I'm sure I'll love whatever one I choose.
In 2024, would you get a tynee mini pro 3 or a exway wave ?
Why is the hub motor a bad choice? Why do you think belt drive is better? I thought most people find hub motor gives more smooth ride and able to push? Is there any thing that i am missing?
Love the jab on Evolve 😉. Great video Daniel!
is the wave riot drive somehow interchangeable with X1Pro? not need to know if software is compatible with a different kv motor, but just curious to know if possible for this kind of drive train swap for a wider belt option
dang nice sling. where did you buy that from i want one!
Kids are spoiled rotten with today's AWESOME electric toys 🤠💯🤟🙏🇺🇲🇬🇧❤
Hi Daniel,
You say there is no competitor for this board but what do you think of Elwing Powerkit Nimbus ? About same size and same specs, the most powerful version is double motor and it has a swappable battery too (but longer to replace).
And you also have Meepo Mini 2, Boosted Mini X. Did I forget other boards ?
Sounds like you skipped the middle 80% of this video...
Seems like more and more TH-cam reviewers are getting this board hopefully that means it will be out soon! Great video review
Excellent review :) does the wave have the cruise control mode that the Exway X1 Pro has ?
Yes
Can the riot truck go thru a speed pump ?
Would you recommend this board as a first beginner board? Or should I get a like a backfire g2. I want a short board but realized the cons. But really like the small size
Get the one you really want. You can learn on any board. It’ll just take longer to git gud on a shorter board.
Finally a review of this board :). Totally agree with you, this is the best shortboard no question. idk why everyone else is still trying to use hubs on their shortboards...
cuz $370 for meepo mini is within budget of many people
Some of us are hub purists, not too fond of belts snapping and love the free-rolling ability that hub motors give. Road vibration does suck but it depends where you ride and how much flex your deck has.
This board on cloud wheels? Does it hurt the carving?
Do they have extra battery offers and is it swappable with other Exways?
How would you compare it to the boosted mini?
Nice video! Did you make that holding strap or can you buy them?!
It’s a yoga mat sling
Will you review the Meepo Mini 2 by any chance?
How long do you wait for exway to deliver if you live in america?
Daniel mate, your videos are so so good. I'm actually envious of the boards and the video editing. You ever come to the UK we are going for a ride 😎
