Customize your Evolve

I thought it would be a good idea to gather all your creations or idea in this post. So other Evolvers can see how you customized your Evolve. And to show other 'how to' change things on the board... how to apply a new grip tape of how you put on led light under your board... What the best place is to order custom grip tape for example.

I'm actually looking for a shop where I can create and order a custom grip tape. I've been playing around on the Whateverskateboards.com site (see pic), but when I wanted to place my order, I saw they charge almost $50 for shipping to Europe !! So if anyone has a site that ships to or in Europe, let me know.

 

Found a video on Water Transfer Printing. Evolver who pimped the trucks, hubs, ... from an Evolve Carbon Gen 2

 

1st time trial... happy with the extra grip on the sides.

 

I added some grip tape, nothing fancy just wanted better grip

 

I got a Canadian maple deck custom made and a 16ah battery. It could be better but I can't work out how.

 

It's so good. I have been using 8 inch Trampa primo striker lately. Really Cool as it flexes over bumps and smoothes them out, it literally feels like your tail is sinking into powder snow as you carve long carves and bounce out of them. The lack of concave is really way more comfortable for your feet for long rides. I have proven you literally don't need concave on an electric skateboard deck, and everyone who has tried it has agreed. The range and lack of voltage sag is unreal. Don't have to bother looking at battery percentage. Even when windy or hilly and going on long rides. It's not much heavier either.
This is the future of fun Electric boarding I believe. Not short commuter boards with no range and twitchy carving.

 

The BGT is actually 7ah. I had it tested. And the CGT is listed as 10ah.

The larger the battery the longer it holds its voltage in the higher end and the less sag.

Just haven't got around to doing the instructional on the board. Just enjoying the riding.

 

Heye paul i really want one of them batteries for my gt bamboo can i put one on it or is it not possible and can u let me know were i can find one plz cheers mate

 

You'll have to get a custom battery made by a lipo battery maker. Longer deck made and modified or custom battery enclosure. I was thinking about making them available for sale but think it might be stepping on Evolves toes too much.

 

I would be interested in doing something similar. Evolve should be ok with you selling what is basically a major aftermarket upgrade...

 

We could do a private kickstarter project to get some funding and built one, test it and then start producing this for those who want to put it together theirselves.

 

I love the sharp edges....kind of a stealthy look. I also think the concave will not be missed (it only collects water when it a little wet out there).

 

I'm in!

 

Out for a roll after midnight. 28 degrees c. Beautiful night.
