The Phaze has an LCD display, a throttle, a brake, and buttons to switch modes, configure speeds, and customize visibility lights on the board. The carbon fiber construction feels high-end and durable. You control it with an equally premium-feeling remote you hold in your hand, called the Phaze, secured by a wrist strap.
Chest, meet asphalt.Įvolve's Hadean is an electric longboard with dual 3000-watt motors baked into the chassis, along with a beefy battery. Balance actually matters! I figured I could learn as I went along. I'd never ridden a skateboard before, let alone an electric one! That day, it became obvious that this thing was nothing like the electric scooters and electric bikes that I've tested. It took around two weeks to feel completely normal again. By the next morning, it felt like I got hit by a truck. I scuffed up my palm and knee, but my torso was stiff and in pain. Groaning, I slowly picked myself up and limped toward it. The board rolled off toward the sidewalk. On my first real ride with Evolve's new Hadean Carbon All Terrain electric skateboard, I didn't go more than 30 feet before I lost my balance and landed chest first on the road.
But I can finally revert my “Days Since Last Accident” sign back to zero, and it's all thanks to a skateboard. When was the last time you had a proper tumble? One that left you in agonizing pain.
