Ive been riding pre-builts, Evolve GTR, Backfires, and a Revel Kit w/ Omakase deck. But all this DIY talk of how much better a board can be, really got me interested!
I really liked the GTR, on TB110 wheels it was a great ride. But its over heating, lack of hill climbing ability, and relatively low top speed made me want more. So decided to jump into the DIY scene and its been a lot of fun, reading through the forum has been a great resource.
The goal of this was to be a GTR killer, more speed, more torque, but keep the same fun carving feel of the Evolve. The board came out better than I thought. The new Flipsky 6354 battlehardened motors are really impressive, so quiet! The board climbs the steepest hills at 27mph and tops out at around 32mph which is plenty for a guy who likes to ride with minimal protection.
thanks to @skyart for the battery and help with newb questions!
The 6354 are 140kv so its on par with the GTR. Some how Evolve have a lot of torque from a standstill, almost a jerky fee. This board does not have that but accelerates as hard…and keeps on pulling.
Maybe! One was 12s4p one was12s2p. Green board is still running, blue one needs a battery now. Green has bergs, blue has sixshooters. Green is 35° rear truck, blue is 42° rear.
