This is the fourth electric skateboard I’ve owned and by far the best. 26mph top speed, 30-mile range, off-road capabilities, integrated battery, 3.000 watt motors… it’s unbelievably fun and bombs up hills like a freaking monster!
I had been looking into getting a Boosted Board, but after the battery issues they’ve been having I ultimately ended up going with Evolve.
This video covers an unboxing of the Evolve GT Carbon 2-in-1 electric skateboard as well as a first ride and in-depth review. Leave your questions in the comments and I’ll hit you back!

where did you buy it i love it
I wish they will make a smaller version of this board, i don’t mind if it has less range. I know It’s like the best board you can get right now but it’s a tad too big to commute in the city. Great for cruising on the road though
try not to say oh my God in the future thanks
Also, how long does it last?
then i saw your reviewhi ,really enjoyed your cool review video here
i just bought my carbon gt 2 in 1 board its gonna be here this April
i have had some other electric board they have been f in Ace
but after 4 months i have had to order a new battery cos it just wont hold the juice any more and only goes on flat ground for about 20 mins which make me want to CRY
so i was looking for the last 4 whole long weeks to find what i wanted to buy
it was a heap of looking ans searching .reading watching reviews
and sleeping on it
but to day i nearly bought a second had evolve board and it was gonna cost me a fortune to get it shipped from th usa to UK
and then i just though you know what ,i want a brand new one and so i just went to there sight in the uk and it was the last one there
so i bought it , then i watched your review ,
i have to tell you i had some concerns ,about the controller
i did not like the idea of the silly finger prong thing to control it ,at all
as i have been used to a thumb forward to go forward and back to brake
and i believe that this is the other way round.?
but after seeing you say that you felt the same way and it was ok in your hand i feel better .
i have to also say i thought it was gonna look to long and i was a bit worried i was gonna takle it out the box and hate it
that sort of thing can happen with me ,
i bought a cool looking fat wheeled scooter
it looked great in the photos but when i saw it in real life
I HATED IT TO ITS VERY CORE ,
to say i hated it was a real understatment
SERIOUSLY I HAVE NEVER IN MY LIFE EVER HATED SOMETHING THAT MUCH
IT WAS THE MOST EMBARRASSING THING I HAVE EVER SEEN
i could not even bear to look at it let alone get on to it .
I HAD TO RETURN IT ,AND THAT MEANT GETTING IT up
INTO MY SUV its a seven seater and i had to collapse all the seats to get it in
AND IT WEIGHTED THE SAME AS A WOOLY MAMMOTH ELEPHANT
SERIOUSLY IT TOOK 4 PEOPLE TO SHIFT IT IN TO MY CAR
BUT IT ONLY TOOK ME AND THE GUY TO GET IT OUT ?STRANGE THAT
GOD I Really HATED IT SO MUCH (,HAVE YOU SEEN THEM ??)
IT WAS NOT TO FAR AWAY FROM ME TO DRIVE TO RETURN IT
THE GUY WAS SO GOOD THOU HE JUST REFUNDED ME
I have to say when i got home i did a jump in the air and clicked my heals
i was so happy i would never ever have to see that thing ever again ,,
SO I WAS A BIT APPREHENSIVE ABOUT THIS BOARD TOO
i HAD THAT WEIRD FEELING ,YOU KNOW ,WHAT IS THIS BEAST GOING TO ACTUALLY BE LIKE WHEN IT GETS HERE ?
YOUR VIDEO HAS CHARMED MY NERVES
THANKS BUDDY FOR THIS VIDEO
I THINK I AM JUST GONNA LOVE IT ,
I LOVE HE WAY YOU TALK SO CLEARLY AND I CAN UNDERSTAND YOU PERFECTLY
WISH YOU WERE IN THE uk SO WE COULD HOOK UP GO OUT ON OUR BOARDS AND HAVE A F ING BLAST
CHEERS KONSTANTIN
I’m about to open mine
!!!!!!! agh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
where can I get one of these I’m hearing more reviews for the evolve carbon gt rather then buying the boosted board gen 2
I don’t know how to skateboard at all, do I need to learn for this board?
thanks a lot for the review. I wanna buy this board.
im also a e-skateboard enthusiast, IF you want the best, get the LHB Scarlett
is it waterproof?
Is it water resistant?
hi can u use any kind of wheels with this?
THERE WAS NOTHING TO CLICK HAHH
Paid my AT off X 2 Summer 2015-2016 used the board to generate income on short dial a driver jobs. Clients are blown away when I turn up with my AT and put it into their vehicle boot. Getting paid to ride.
Thanks so much Brent! About to order mine today 🙂 great video
Don’t fuck it up feels like its mine too thanks bro
can you pump the board, without a motor on?
Hey Brent. Nice review, appreciate the time and effort you put into these. How is acceleration and top speed compared to the metroboard? I got the Micro Slim, which I love. But I’m rocking 240 lbs so it mostly cruises at 15 mph. Is the GT a big difference, or just marginally better speed wise compared to the Micro Slim?
I wonder how shark wheels would work with this
Hate the name ‘Evolve’. Other than that seems alright.
You should post more
Dude Brent thanks for the video. I have been eyeing this thing for a while now. SO PUMPED TO GET MINE!
how much did you pay for it
There are a lot of small inaccuracies in this video. For instance, the heat sink is for the esc and has nothing to do with the batteries.
What kind of camera do you use?
I just started your video it looks awesome I’ve been wanting a powered longboard for a long time I don’t skate so I obviously will not buy one for $2,000 I’m going to make my own board with custom wheels and trucks with a battery operated Stihl chainsaw I could use a bit of help on the best wheels and trucsk if you could help. I’ve already learned a lot from the video and comments just in the first 2 minutes bamboo is a great option for the board although I have some baller ass Old School Redwood I may consider using. thanks for posting this
Could you Carry around an extra battery on the go and swap it out when it’s low?
this is a cool e board but its 2k dollars
I have the Evolve bamboo and the quality is extremely poor. Last year the motor plate broke and a couple of weeks after that the drive belt broke. I tried to get them to take the board back because I didn’t feel safe using it. After that, they stopped answering my emails. Earlier today I was heading out for the first ride of the year, but after a few minutes the back truck completely broke in half. Just like the motor plate did last year. Thankfully I’ve been going really slow both times it has broken. Evolve should be thankfull for that. If I was going fast their product and irresponsible customer service would be responsible for some serious injuries.
And theese are just the most serious problems I’ve experienced with the board. The motor, battery and overall build quality is just as bad. I don’t know if I only had bad luck and received a bad board. But since they won’t send me a new one I will never know.
thank u so much for the video. my question is which one u think is better the metroskateboard or the evolve?
Great review. Waiting for mine. Where was that area you were riding? It looks like Folsom,Ca
Best review ever! Can you pls also review the Marbel 2.0 when it comes out. Thanks!
DUDE FOR 2 GRAND SHOULD IUT NOT FRIGGING ROCK!?

I had questions after comparing electric skateboards. Thanks for taking time and recording this video. You answered all my questions.
