Tne 1k batteries pound on his back must be killing him lol!!!, change 4 TIMES the batterie to go to the BBQ then come back it was a dead project from the beginning
your hands get dirty, they weigh like 5 pounds each and cost 400 dollars each. it is silly. there are 5x better options than boosted. boosted was a pioneer, but bad service, substandard product and lack of ability to keep up with the times has made boosted a bad choice.
Thanks for checking out our video, wolfpack! Much appreciated. I don't think most riders will be shlepping multiple long range batts around with them, nor will most people need a range longer than 12-14 miles. Also...c'mon, you can't justly say that Boosted produced substandard products.
Boosted was my first e board of 4. after continuously upgrading over the last 2 years, i got on my boosted and realised it was a pos. sorry to say. get a meepo with tesla battery and ride it. get a gtx and ride that... youll see what i mean.
After a while of being on that board, everything from your shins down to your feet are terribly numb and feel like Jell-O. I wonder if using Nike Shox or Gravity Defyer sneakers would be alot more comfortable???
Boosted Stealths 3 biggest draw backs: XR batteries still doing realistically 10~ miles or even less at high speed + how much of a pain it is to replace batteries + not being able to take bigger wheels (such as the AT on the Kaly's + Evolves which have a* much better range and cost less if you factor in the price of the extra EX batteries.)
The batteries, while not quick and requiring a hex key, is certainly not a huge pain to swap out. It takes like 3 mintues tops, and it really isn't meant to be quickly swappable like other batteries in other models. Also, I think that Boosted's boards are meant to be a set type of board - just buy and ride. If you want customizability, then DIY is the really obvious choice.
" it really isn't meant to be quickly swappable like other batteries" Yeah I can tell. I've had a v1 for 2+ years and they kept 90% of the battery design (6 screws + the tension for the battery connection) It's clearly not meant for it by its old design but at this premium price point it SHOULD be (imo). Especially since on Hyper mode in the stealth you'll be getting around 6-8 miles riding at top speed which is ridiculously short in comparison to this boards competitors in the same price point. Boosted Sold v2's with standard range batteries and people had to pre order the extended range battery (which took over 2 years to come out after heavy delays) so tens of thousands of people have these two batteries so it's ridiculous that they have to spend 5+min with tools on the side of the road to switch batteries when companies like Inboard and mellow have super easy and fast battery swap systems (And even really cheap Chinese companies) "If you want customizability, then DIY is the really obvious choice." its not a matter of customizability , more about just being able to utilize a decent amount of range on a $1500+ board. In terms of all terain wheels, the evolve isn't a DIY and it can fit the same wheels as the boosted all the way to full all terain and that goes for the GTX which is super close to boosted's price. Boosted does many things really really well. I'm just pointing out that its particularly weak for medium and long distance commuting/rides.
This why Inboard is still better than Boosted for long range rides. Swappable batteries!! and you can buy as many of them direct from Inboard as you'd like. The onewheel also has more range than both inboard and boosted too.
How did you get to Westchester from Manhattan. Let me guess. You took the westside bike bath all the way up. I don't know what happens when you get around Spuyten Duyvil and Riverdale because the area is very mountainous. Did you stay on Route 9 all thru Yonkers, straight to Croton Harmon?
In 2015, I rode my bicycle from Peekskill back to the Bronx. Started around noon and didn't get back until a little after midnite. Once you get to upper Westchester, those hills will wear you down
Metroboard makes a 55 mile range board that is not Chinese like the new boosted boards and much faster and more powerful. And better quality of course. You guys should try.
That's some cool shit :) I haven't ever been even near Boosted Board, but it got so much attention, that i am starting to believe it's maybe just a little bit over hyped (especially for the price). Correct me if I am wrong :)
Stefan0man , what!!? Metro board !???! Better quality!!?? LMAO!!!!!! Metro boards are one of the worst boards. If your going to recommend a board at least recommended a good one. 55miles!? 🤣😅
Sparta 76, there's always at least one Troll on the internet who has no idea what is what. Don't take my word for it, I don't work for them, check it out yourself. Don't cry when you figure out I'm correct. Do you own both? I do, and have for a while. Tell me why?
Is it a good idea to buy a boosted board ? How durable it is? I live in Sydney I have to walk 20 mins from station to my apartment can boosted board help in such situations?
Lmao damn so many people hating..I personally love the Boosted..ride my V2 everyday 10 miles for commute in LA and it just chews up the road(Knock on wood lol)..ive got 4k miles on it now..maybe if they made a quick swap battery like the Inboard M1 and some water resistance it would be a much better board
Look at all of these evolve fans bashing the range... 1. Evolve makes a fantastic, faster and longer range board. Yes! BUT. If I wanted a faster, longer range to get somewhere... I'd take my car. I ride boosted because nothing feels like a Boosted. Nothing is flickable and reactive and flexible as a Boosted. Countless people have said it, and will continue to say it: When I'm going out for a quick run, I take the Boosted. It's simply more enjoyable. Also... can you extract that battery from the Evolve Carbon GT and haul that thing along on an aircraft like you can detach a Boosted Battery?
you can detach a boosted battery, but you DEFINITELY can't bring it on the plane. Unless you're using one of the old, puny standard range batteries. No airline will allow a 199Wh battery on a plane. It's only allowed as cargo, so no way to travel with it. Only way is shipping the battery separately.
Actually, you CAN bring an XR battery on a plane.... you simply have to undergo the 20 minute process of disassembling the battery and separating the power cells, because the FAA says you have no limit on the amount of sub 99 WH cells. Stick them (individually wrapped) in a ziplock, and reassemble at your destination. The warranty on most boards doesnt last longer than 6 months anyway so who really cares about that. Annoying? Yes. but when you have to attend a course that is 3 weeks long on the other side of the country, shipping your board and waiting a week for it to arrive isn't really efficient. Evolve boards on the other hand, (though I REALLY applaud the carbon's flatpack battery cells) can't have their batteries dissembled and reassembled in less than a few hours, and only then if you are willing to CUT the cells apart and go straight mad scientist.
@@chrnaf I disagree about the carbons cells being harder to separate... although I will give it to you that they definitely will be harder to put back together. I took apart my carbon battery once it died. I do agree that the boosted is just a nicer board all together. I use to be an evolve fan boy but about 9 months into my carbon, the hole thing just started falling apart. Battery died completely, remote issues, replaced 5 motors (F-ing stupid open motors) and had a cracked deck... it's a fun fast and far reaching board but holly crap it's a money pit of never ending repairs and issues. The boosted is far more reliable and enjoyable to ride. I absolutely love my boosted, but more importantly is that I haven't stopped loving it like with the Carbon gt.
*looks at evolve GTR which has swappable batteries, can be taken on flights and addresses every critique you made* ....hmmmm *looks at busted ass boosted which hasnt improved jack shit in years*....hmmmm
You should have bought the metro board, it would've done it with a single battery (and a little bit of charge) but it is not a big deal compared to changing batteries 4 times
Is this range thing still an issue for boosted some of these boards cost as much as a car and the range is still cheap cool board ig not worth the money tho get that range up then well talk
Boosted stealth may not have the longest range or highest top speed, but i don’t need that. I would say it has the best quality out of any electric longboard and amazing customer service. 💁♂️
We probably won't convince you, but we did indeed have enough power to get home. Especially because we were able to charge up while we ate at the bbq joint.
Brian Ross waste of money. Get an Evolve. 28 miles on a charge. And changing the battery? It’s the same as the Boosted! You need a tool kit and 20 minutes.
THELIGHTSPEED! ! Battery isn’t an issue for me. I’ll just be riding on campus. I like the look and flex of the boosted boards more than evolves boards. So I’m happy with what I bought. Yes the stats of an evolve board are better but I think boosted boards will out last evolve boards in the long run. If anything a raptor 2 is better than both boards lol
I’m sorry you went as far as board would go. Then you had to buy 3 more battery’s to make it . You would have not made it with just the board. So point you made you can travel as far as you want as long as you have the budget to buy extra power supplies
Wow that battery swap seems like it took forever. I thought it would be a quick slide swap like in other boards. Also seemed really high off the ground, I'll need to look for a board with a drop-through or something like a LandYachtz EVO deck to feel better balanced and secure.
That was dope bro. I didn't like how the battery swap looked. It didn't look like It was easy to swap. With a price tag of $1599.00 I thought they would have made the battery swap way faster. I once saw this dude swap his battery out while he was waiting for the light to change, and his board was half the price of the boosted. Great video by the way bro.
A nice place to ride too: Route 9 Croton Expressway Bike/Pedestrian path, I have a Boosted Board v2. Want to add a hub motor kit for the front to assist the standard motor. I would like to do this within a week. The stealth looks great. Ride safe
The problem is those hex screws because they have that safety button in the middle. Wish they would just use Alan key type screws. I swapped out all my hex screws for Alan key screws. .........And always carry a park tool.
Boosted is not in the heavy hitter category, not even close, urethane wheels are great if you like sore feet and stiff legs . By the time you buy 2 or I am guessing for this video 3 extra batteries you can buy a Kaly NYC , Something custom from Long haired boy or a Lacroix ( all with pneumatic wheel option ) and the ability to ride at 30-40 mph , charge while eating and make the return with battery and legs to spare
Boosted is overrated. Get a Meepo NLS Pro. 20 mile range, up to 32mph, super flexible, it's so much quieter than the boosted stealth, and it's a lot cheaper.
Here's our route! We basically followed the bike route Google provided, which puts you on mostly very nice, safe bike rail trails, but had to skip the Van Cortlandt Park section because that was all gravel. imgur.com/a/aZEgoXN
I WANT THAT yes he was! To get the advertised miles you have baby it. Evolve would have went the trip balls out, and with the AT wheels would have killed that dirt trail.
THELIGHTSPEED! ! Yup my gtx gets there with 85% left on the battery. I ride that path all the time for fun. My boosted stays home days think I'm gonna sell it but it's a back up in case the gtx ever goes down
Now try Carvon 4wd and 2wd, I wanna see someone going 50 mph... that's insane... so is the price of the board though... But you can put pneumatic wheels on it without having to change anything... NO belts, no gears... looks awesome... And with pneumatic tyres your theoretical max speed is like 65 mph+ :D
If you will have a Dirt Rider II from Majestic Boards you will dont risk your life on road and can go throw that dirt road :) Maybe you can try it out?
Ha. Great question. One I gave some thought to before the ride. I ended up picking these up (www.merrell.com/US/en/chameleon-7-stretch/30691M.html?dwvar_30691M_color=J12063#cgid=men-chameleon&start=1) and I gotta say, they were (and still are) the best for long rides. The flex, comfort, and strong soles are perfect. Maybe Merrell should sponsor long rides.
wolfpack forlife I done 12 mile last night, was only averagering 15mph because I like to carve most of the time, I'm 100kg and the battery was still on full when I got back to the car
Ryan Kelly yep Evolve is the way to go. So many people are hyping the Boosted.... but when they start seeing their $1500 board going less than a Chinese board they will wish they listened
THELIGHTSPEED! ! I love the gtx looking for a second board don't like the carbon gt too stiff not enough flex I like to ride street wheels, might put an order in for a NYC kaly board,
Ryan Kelly you know the more boards I try the more I stay with Evolve. They have their issues, but they are few compared to Boosted. I ride my GTX almost 100% with AT wheels. #1 I weigh 220, and #2 in Arizona their are rocks everywhere! Roads are shitty! But I recently got a Meepo V2p and it’s super awesome actually!
wolfpack forlife , you wish!! I have the carbon and NO it does not do 45miles. Especially on faster modes plus the sag going up hill is ridiculous but even without theses issues the batteries don’t last that long.🤥
GTX is better than carbn. I have a bunch of boards also. Boosted is by far the worst. Meepo with extended range tesla battery is a good option. Boosted is not an option.
wolfpack forlife , ok I’m not even going to bother with you cause obviously you have no idea what you are talking about. The only difference between the carbon and the gtx is the board. One is made out of bamboo the other carbon fiber. All electrical components and batteries are the same. Try harder.
Taxi? Not in our budget.
Has a 1500$ board
Mr. Supreme. Thanks for checking out our video. Much appreciated!
scumbag supreme hahahahahahaha classic comment bro I literally busted out laughing
Lol
Yeah that's why they can't afford a taxi. It makes perfect sense.
Spends god knows hm on that lunch too lol
Even editing can't make the battery swap process look enticing.
lmaoo boosted should try to make a quick swap option like the Inboard M1..takes about 5 minutes for me to switch it out lol
It could be better, but it's not _horrbile_
looks pretty standard to me
Maybe you need a more powererful motor
You bailed because you ran out of batteries.
he had a full bag of them... could barely pick that back pack up... that' not a 50 mile range... that's a bag full of batteries...
jirka merunka yep
Nah, we bailed because it just got too late. Lame reason, but it's 100% true. The bbq didn't help either.
Tne 1k batteries pound on his back must be killing him lol!!!, change 4 TIMES the batterie to go to the BBQ then come back it was a dead project from the beginning
@@acidkhmer yep
800 dollars for 2 batteries and pain in the ass to change it lol
Jordan Reguigue Not really a pain to change batts, to be honest. Took a couple minutes.
Jordan Reguigue agreed. For a battery that is not integrated into the board, this should change out much easier. Put it on your list, Boosted!

So Revenge Barbeque is in Croton (Westchester County)?
The only reason I stop myself from getting the boosted board. You can't call it commuting device with just 14 miles. Atleast give us 25-30 miles
Most car trips in the us are under 10 miles.
What kind of backpack is that?

Wow that battery swap seems like it took forever. I thought it would be a quick slide swap like in other boards. Also seemed really high off the ground, I'll need to look for a board with a drop-through or something like a LandYachtz EVO deck to feel better balanced and secure.

Michael Hurdle Production Studio you need about 10 min to change batteries
An evolve carbon gt could do it and the all terrain tires could do the dirt trail. No extra batteries needed 31 miles of range
That what i was thinking!!
A nice place to ride too: Route 9 Croton Expressway Bike/Pedestrian path,
I have a Boosted Board v2. Want to add a hub motor kit for the front to assist the standard motor. I would like to do this within a week.

try the meepo mini 2 it goes up to 28 mph and has an extended range of like 45 miles

This has to be the biggest joke. “Few minutes” lol. You have to have a tool box to change the battery? Boosted is horrible. 9 miles? That sucks.
If by tool box you mean, "an Allen Wrench," then yes.
The problem is those hex screws because they have that safety button in the middle. Wish they would just use Alan key type screws. I swapped out all my hex screws for Alan key screws.
.........And always carry a park tool.
No way u made that on two batteries and how did u charge both batteries?

Wait does anyone know where I can get decent 85mm (or bigger) wheels that work well with the boosted board?
I have a B.B. v2 dual + with speed cogs stealth can’t hang with me $80 printed cogs lmao
I get mine next week 😊
Do you like it ? How was the range 14 miles?? Do you find any problem??
¡¡¡¡FORZA Evolve !!!!!!
juanak47 👍
I would honestly love getting 2 extra ERBs and doing a trip north to Wisconsin from Chicago
⚡🤙🏼🤙🏼⚡
Best BBQ this side of the Hudson that no one goes to
Take me on your next trip I just got my boosted stealth I live in the upes
SHD AGENT 01 done.
As far as going off road. Thankfully they actually have rubberized skateboard tires,
just have to repeat the process to recharge the battery. Good luck setting alarms in the middle of the night to rotate the batteries
Nice video love the editing!!! The food looked amazing!! 30 miles is not bad! Cool review!
Thank you, good sir! Thanks for checking us out, New reviews coming out.
It’s unrealistic to expect to perform a casual battery swap on a BB when out and about. Otherwise, cool video.
Thanks for checking out our video! Much appreciated.
Oh because I guess a taxi is more expensive than a boosted board
Come check out their new up and coming design - I can't wait to buy 2 of them ride and more - www.BoostedBoardlife.com
If you think about it riding at night wouldn't have been a good idea. But it seems that 14 mile range advertised isnt totally correct
U just bought all that food but couldn’t afford a taxi
Bro how was your legs after this
Ha. Great question. One I gave some thought to before the ride. I ended up picking these up (www.merrell.com/US/en/chameleon-7-stretch/30691M.html?dwvar_30691M_color=J12063#cgid=men-chameleon&start=1) and I gotta say, they were (and still are) the best for long rides. The flex, comfort, and strong soles are perfect. Maybe Merrell should sponsor long rides.
Were you able to re-charge it in the restaurant?
Yes, we did recharge while we ate, so we definitely had enough juice to get back.
Hi
Hi.
For more info on the Timbuk2 duffel: fave.co/2NisTFC
this needs way more attention. it's so professionally done. I love it, new sub mate
Thank you!
The guy says nothing like boosted, try GTX , you didn't need to carry all that extra battery, 28ish mile one charge
I FEEL LIKE THE V1 AND V2 ARE THE REAL DEAL, THEY START BUILDING THEIR STUFF AND FAIL
Metro North? Funny ending! SoCal with daughter at Fordham. ;o)
Fordham is great. You much be proud! Sounds like she needs a mini x!
Great video and channel, just subscribed
Welcome aboard, Evans! Thanks for subbing!
Why not just get a metroboard? They have 55 mile ranges (I think,) and you dont have to un screw a bunch of shit to get there.
14 miles range and ran out of juice at 9 miles? 😑😑😑
Taxi? We don't have budget for that, the boosted? $1600+tax. Sir, that's hell of a budget right there.
But that esk8 won't fall apart after one trip, he can reuse it.
Metro boards can have a 40-55 mile on a single charge
Should’ve charged it at the bbq place
Wait so taxi is too expensive but a 1.5k skateboard isnt ? Logic :p
That sponsorship
There are better Eboards out there than a boosted.
Raptor 2.1 is king
45 miles with two boosted batteries? uh... no?
3
The coolest background future sounds when changing the battery’s and yes boosted is still the best!
Vestarboard or Aspu board are much better range and faster.
GOd I want that soooo bad !!!
no budget for taxi but can afford a E board
CALVIN AGUSTIN - Base Design if you have to buy every single time a taxi
Life's weird, Calvin.
lifes weird or life can just be sponsored or funded by someone elses funds.
26 miles 3:03? Thought it was 46 tf... Nvm there and back
Evolve would have made that trip with a 30 minute top off at the restaurant
wolfpack forlife I done 12 mile last night, was only averagering 15mph because I like to carve most of the time, I'm 100kg and the battery was still on full when I got back to the car
Ryan Kelly yep Evolve is the way to go. So many people are hyping the Boosted.... but when they start seeing their $1500 board going less than a Chinese board they will wish they listened
THELIGHTSPEED! ! I love the gtx looking for a second board don't like the carbon gt too stiff not enough flex I like to ride street wheels, might put an order in for a NYC kaly board,
Ryan Kelly you know the more boards I try the more I stay with Evolve. They have their issues, but they are few compared to Boosted. I ride my GTX almost 100% with AT wheels. #1 I weigh 220, and #2 in Arizona their are rocks everywhere! Roads are shitty! But I recently got a Meepo V2p and it’s super awesome actually!
Ryan Kelly btw way I’m a “Kelly” too!
I need one of those
that battery swapping I’m not feeling it nah
Evolve gt > boosted board
rediculous. my evolve gtx can do it with one charge and its a far superior board. Also I bought the enduro wheels to swap out when i want to off road.
wolfpack forlife , you wish!! I have the carbon and NO it does not do 45miles. Especially on faster modes plus the sag going up hill is ridiculous but even without theses issues the batteries don’t last that long.🤥
GTX is better than carbn. I have a bunch of boards also. Boosted is by far the worst. Meepo with extended range tesla battery is a good option. Boosted is not an option.
wolfpack forlife , ok I’m not even going to bother with you cause obviously you have no idea what you are talking about. The only difference between the carbon and the gtx is the board. One is made out of bamboo the other carbon fiber. All electrical components and batteries are the same. Try harder.
BS brah. I rode my GTX to Cold spring from West 42nd street. Thats about 45 miles. I did it to get a taco. Your show is wack.
"I have a carbon" you idiot carbon has no flex.
That meat looks so damn good.
