Ownboard Bamboo AT (39”) | All Terrain Electric Skateboard | Dual Belt Motor

Ive put about 80 miles on my new Bamboo AT.
Super fun with the 120 mm cloudwheels.

Better than any evolve board I love it.

Love the board! The range is insane and the pick up is something else, hills are irrelevant now ha ha. Smooth ride, great to carve and the ckiud wheels are as good as everyone says.

Only things of note, trucks are way too soft on delivery had to adjust them a hell of a lot. And finally, a tiny point, the dust cover for the charging port is crap. Hardly fits, have to force it in.

After riding for a few weeks, one of the observations I shared with my wife was how profoundly it changed the experience from traditional longboarding: never shifting balance back and forth to kick; focusing exclusively on the ride, the carve, and the flow. So much closer to riding snow. I knew I was going to like it, but I was completely unprepared for how much I would love it.

The quality is very good

I like it, it’s very nice.

I bought this board in January (bamboo gt + at), I traveled 1000km with it and the problems started, it has not worked again for more than a week since April, I have 3 batteries 1 motor 1 esc, 1 remote control and it still does not work, it is as if they send me broken parts, i don't recommend buying this board or this brand

A great product of course! I heard rumors of battery issues and I've yet to run into any.

But seriously when can we expect a 12s battery to push these boards even further?

Placed the online for the Ownboard Carbon with 120mm cloud wheels. Received my delivery within 33 days which was much after than expected.

The board is a dream and very smooth to ride. Highly recommended!! Thank you Ownboard 👍🏼

I decided on the Bamboo AT after a lot of deliberation between the Evolve Bamboo GTR and the Ranger Backfire X2. Initially, I wrote Ownboard off because I had heard of A LOT of battery issues plus bad customer service etc.. But in early 2020, they claimed to have fixed the battery issue, so I caved and bought one, and I’m glad I did. I’m going to start with my issues before I mention what I like about the board. After about 5 hours on the board, one of the motors started stalling when I would accelerate from a stop. The quick fix was just to kick before accelerating so that the motor could have a head start, and it worked OKAY that way. Not perfectly. The brakes and overall torque were suffering. I emailed ownboard about it immediately, and they sent me a new ESC for free. It got here surprisingly fast (I’m in the United States). The problem (now obvious to me) was not the ESC, but the motor. When I again emailed them, they responded the next day and requested $25.00 for shipping for the new motor. IMO, you shouldn’t have to pay if the board is under warranty, but oh well, it’s $25. Motor took 2.5 weeks to get here, I just installed it today, and the board is running perfect. Overall, the customer service was good. They answered my emails quickly, and got me my parts quickly as well.
One problem I ran into, was that they almost completely lack any sort of instruction on how to work on the boards. Luckily, it’s pretty intuitive and not over complicated. But I still found myself checking Evolve’s very detailed and thorough YouTube channel for How-to videos. Being a Chinese company with many English-speaking customers, they need to do a better job explaining the functions of their product through their manual and/or social media. (@Ownboard, if you need an English-speaking representative to make videos/write an instruction manual, I’d be more than happy to).
Anyway, the Bamboo AT rides like a dream. When it is working properly, it is every bit the Evolve killer it was meant to be. It is noticeably faster than the Evolve at top speed, and the deck is much more flexible (which adds to the fun factor). I ride on the honeycomb wheels, which are a great option if you ride where there are going to be thorns or other things to pierce your tires. The honeycombs are pretty squishy, and absorb small bumps like a dream. You CAN power-slide on concrete with these. Though they take away slightly from the range, and I’ve heard they lessen the top speed slightly. For me, they’re worth it, and they’re great tires.
The double kingpin trucks are fantastic, but slightly loose from the factory. Give the board a quick test ride and you’ll know that you should tighten the bushings up, or get harder ones. This will make speed-wobbles much less frequent.
When I was trying to decide which board to buy, one of the things that bothered me were the reviews that said that the Bamboo AT did not have the acceleration rate of the Evolve GTR. This is accurate, but almost insignificant. Unless you ride many different E-skates every single day, you will not be disappointed by any means with the Bamboo AT’s power output. It accelerates like a Tesla, so brace yourself.
This board is crazy fun, and I’d recommend it to anyone despite Ownboard’s few flaws.
