Radium will absolutely b my next board that I buy💯. I luv how tough and the beating it can take. Opens up a way of riding I’ve always dreamed of. Great review. 🔥😎🤘🤘
furst time i came across this channul. i really didnt expect the man to ride the board at full speed xD respect man, dont judge a book on its cover i should really not anymore, even being 37 myself.
Have you tried the Hoyt Dadbod or Cascade? Great boards with great acceleration....I haven't found anything more stable and carvy at the same time. I can cruise at 40 with no issues...stable as hell. I'd like to try the Radium though...looks great and obviously well built. Nice review!
Been waiting for this review. Great job Mate! I own a Mach 1, mind blowing board!! Worth every cent!!! I’m 6’2, size 13 feet and the deck is perfect for Me. The drop down locks me in. Buy one! You won’t touch your other boards again, so sell them to fund this lol
Thanks so much. Glad you liked it. I will definitely have one. I missed the Genesis, but I won’t miss the next ones. You’re so lucky, and I have to agree, totally mind blowing.
I feel the 12s6p battery is plenty big enough as sticking a monster battery in there would make it crazy heavy. 17kgs is already a bit of a lump + with 12A charging, juicing up doesn't take that long
Paul here I am in Michigan and is it possible to get a mountain board, with the same power and trucks with the mountain board wheels like 6 inch 7 inch wheels
You can get similar power but you’re not getting a mountainboard out of those components. It’s a street board that can do some light unsealed surfaces with its torque vectoring feature. Mountainboard you’d be looking at an angled deck and top mounted battery with channel trucks or something similar and for off road riding the way a mountainboard is meant to be used you want at least 8” wheels and bindings.
The guys who build them take them everywhere, including dirt trails. Reach out to MBoards in Vegas if you want similar power in something off-road though. They will definitely look after you best.
@@ko-bk2uz I thought so too, but it is fast. They have stated that it is or 8000w / 10.7 horsepower capable of 45mph and I believe it. May possibly be quicker. 14s doesn’t mean it faster. Morgan Brady who keeps winning the pro class at esk8con on his stooge is running an 8s.
@@CraigTaylorYT I got 14s 6384 and it is the most powerful board by far that I have ever experienced in over 10 years, after 6 months I still cannot tame gear 4 off the line, adrenalin rush 2nd + 3rd gears all the time everytime, at any speed a push of the trotted and 💥 you out like nobody's business, 4th gear in totally totally insane I shit you not. The M1 does look interesting but 12s is a no deal they have to rebuild the battery and ESC at a 14s. Plus Acedeck just drop another 14s. that's the new performance formula 14s
I love the mad wheels. These wheels are amazing too, but heavy. Much better range from mad wheels. The rubber compound is super grippy, and the diameter is larger, so the ride comfort is slightly better. It is hard to compare directly as I would need to try the mad wheels on this board. The suspension, adds to the ride comfort and makes these wheels feel even more amazing. Sorry I’m not super clear, cause there is a lot going on in this board.
The colour scheme for the next batch looks sick with the racing red accents, want very much but my bank account is saying NO, NO, NO... Lord it is hard being a responsible adult.
DKP are always nice to carve with. So this will be a little less carvy, but I didn’t adjust it enough. When I get my own one, I hope I can share some more info. But the way it was, I loved it.
Most boards I ride are without belt guards. If the dirt and rocks can get in there, I always think it’s best to leave it open so the stuff can get out again. The material these belts are made of should take a pretty decent amount of neglect. I’ve seen the Radium crew bombing dirt trails without any issues at all.
Other than racing does a board like this really have a place in your quiver? Pretty huge, heavy and wide. For getting around really far maybe but I don't see this being a day to day board
These were not made for racing. These were designed and made originally for general riding. The style was meant to be F1 inspired. Fr what I’ve been told, they are making a race version for esk8con for next year. Under foot, it’s not heavy, and it is the best riding board. There is definitely a place for it.
@@CraigTaylorYT Out of curiosity where do you do most of your riding and on what surfaces? This board looks beast for paved bike trails and streets but probably best not for the dirt.
@@Erroct1 mostly sealed trails for me. I have seen the Radium guys doing lots of dirt trails on these boards though. I didn’t want to get this dirty or trashed up as I had borrowed it.
What is “low mode”? Are you talking about mode 1 on the Hoyt puck? FYI this isn’t the same as “gears” on most mainstream boards. Even in mode 1, it will hit top speed. The only difference between modes 1, 2, and 3, is that the puck will cap the max throw in 1 or 2 (mode 3 is full 0-100%). 2 will cap it around 66%, and 1 somewhere less (I never use 1). However just because the throttle throw is capped does NOT mean it won’t hit top speed. Due to the way VESC-based controllers process throttle inputs, all it does is effectively change the acceleration (though even that’s not entirely accurate). Think of it like this: often people (including racers) won’t use mode 3 because they rarely, if ever, shove the throttle to 100% and keep it there. That whole part of the throttle is basically unused. What they do instead is throw the throttle somewhere between 0-66%. So by using mode 2, they’re getting that entire 0-66% across the entire throttle, giving highly nuanced speed control. This is WAY better than most other remotes that just use “gears” as speed caps.
You’re completely correct about the puck and the modes. The scaling of mode 1 is super comfortable to ride with for cruising. Mode 3 is all go. The intention of this board originally was an everyday rider, so that’s how I wanted to review it. Thanks for the concise feedback. Really appreciated.

Loving hearing you on those trails mate! You sound pretty happy!!
This thing blew my mind. Just so nice to ride. Can’t wait to get one of my own. 💯🛹

Thanks mate. Hope you’re well. I couldn’t agree more. Can’t wait to have my own one now. ⏰
You won't do it..

Thanks legend. Being over 50 still doesn’t deter me. I love being able to just ride.
Another excellent review Craig, love to see it!
Thanks so much. Greatly appreciated.
Oh my god yessssss love this thing fantastic review brother!!!!!
It is a thing of beauty, and wow, it rips. 💯⚡️😆 thanks legend.

Thanks. I rode the Dadbod in Vegas. It’s very nice, but a real hassle to get it in Australia. Love the trucks on the Hoyt, really stable.
Massive review here
Thanks legend. Really appreciate it. 💯❤️
Well done Craig!

Great review man. You are so lucky ♥
Thanks so much. It’s such a nice set up. Am looking forward to getting my own in a few months.

I have to agree completely.
I use Radium motors with my Lacroix man I would love this. My only concern is the range cause I normally ride 20 mile rides hard
@@patrickmcevoy1776 they make the best motors out there. I hear what you are saying about the range.
but carve like a demon? ....angels take much sharper turns, and they even look gracefully doing so
the looking graceful part sounds kinda gay to me to but in a race its not about looks, its about who crosses the finish line first

Whats the deck size, what's the truck size, what's the battery wh, How many modes are there
Sorry, I didn’t put a tape measure over it. The battery is 48v 1089Wh Molicel INR-21700 P42A 12S6P.
@@CraigTaylorYT 1089wh is interesting but 12s is not, thats going backwards from a 14s

I would love to see a two-in-one using this suspension.
@@Greenmachine305 they are working on something around this I think. If something happens, I will definitely be sharing with everyone.
this board is for professional and or daily commuter, but for the price i'll opt for acedeck s3 or wowgo 3e
Yeah the price is abit high for me too so I opted for a raith skateboard instead
Wish it came with the red design. Looks like the ultimate street board. 3k euro is alot but it seems it's the best
Well didnt check shipping or import tax in Europe but.
@@yohvh im actually curious too..
This version was the first. The design is yet to be finalised for the new ones in the next batch. It is amazing to ride.
@@yohvh I hear that. Bringing boards out to Australia from the US or Europe is the same.
Those two belts look like they’ll grab all kinds of dirt and rocks flung up by the tires. Do you think that’s a problem?
