Evolve and Loaded Collaboration: The Onirique 

That is awesome! Totally agree with you!

Couldn't agree more! This board feels like a true shred head kinda board, a throw back to original skateboarding. Thanks for checking out the video my man, hope to ride with you soon!

Thanks so much for your support brother! Im glad that I "took your breath away" haha The design of the deck I felt it was the only place I could put my feet and it felt right! the front nose area was a bit different, but felt good once got into the grove especially for slides and stability, also those front trucks being so much further a head made a big difference in ride feel. I agree, i've been a huge fan of loaded for so may years, have a few of their boards in my quiver still and to be able to test this one out was a honor for my younger self haha. I took French for years and truly love the language and culture, I hope I pronounced it right, maybe ill ask Samo if I did that correct 😂😂😅 I agree on the choice of bigger battery, it's so lightweight and nimble and brings you back to true skateboard roots. I wanted to showcase it against other boards to really show off Loaded design choice. Yeah the dual trigger remote took several rides to get used to, but I like the top down screen, so if you're a lefty or right you can see everything still, top down remote with a wheel would be chief kiss. the tail could use some protection maybe some clear bumper? agree the bash guard has a really good feeling hold to it and being able to stand straight up at 6' and walk with it dragging is nice. again loaded and evolve knew what they were doing. cheers bravo, thanks for your input, always appreciated and I look forward to seeing you here in the comment section!

@@DrewElia I used to think I'd like the front truck to be really high up on the nose to make a longer wheelbase, Once i got the Flow, I realised I don't like it too far up 😂

Glad you like it! I agree, its a stand out as far as the more blacks and grey colors of the other companies. Thanks for checking out the video! if you haven't yet please make sure to subscribe more content coming out!

I totally agree! I love the Omakase board as well! this definitely has similarities to it but it feels really really good under the feet. thanks for the support! really appreciate it my man!

+2 Omakase

Agree I’ve tried a bustin and love skate minded it felt!

I appreciate that

Totally agree! Everyone should have a mini in the quiver!

Thank you!!!

Thank you!

Thanks my man, Its lot of work trust me. never ending, but worth while to show case and interact with you guys!

Congratulations hope you save a few bucks off using my code as well!!!

Thanks brother

Thanks so much! I agree I think the design is beautiful and loaded/evolve did a great job with the board

Thanks brother

I don’t know if it will fit 105? The cags on it are honestly perfect in my opinion. With the dadbods you might loose the carving nature of the ride feel

I love it!

Oh Jesus my man, sorry for the fall! That’s insane! Thanks for checking out the video though and supporting the channel! You’ve always been an amazing support! Appreciate you!

😳 hold up wtf, how does that happen and how do you prevent an e board from cutting out like that? Are there certain characteristics that have a higher risk of that?

@@SS8styles like anything electronic they can be fine one minute and not the next, it is only a small percentage that this happens, minimise the risk by looking after the board, not riding in wet conditions or through puddles, and wear safety gear and you should be good 👍

Very similar stance and ride feel, though I’m not sure the Dadbods would fit on here with our riser pads? Only because of potential wheel bit at hard carves?

So actually the flow is more power and longer range than both the stoke and Onirique. That being said the Onirique is plenty of range and power for me great carve feel and awesome deck. The stoke is the same power but the battery is smaller, same trucks and wheel options. But the deck from loaded personally makes it better for me I’m a taller guy and that deck is longer and the wheel flairs give me a better locked in feeling!

@@DrewElia many thanks drew ! I create esk8 content in France (sadly… it is not really developed in our country !) and I had a question about that. Thanks to you, I will be able to answer to one of my sub. Thanks again ;-)

@guillaume.quignon-Esk8Bricks I follow you already! Love your work!!

@@DrewElia thanks to you Drew ;-) Sadly, i can't produce more Esk8 content maybe due to thje fact that french market is less interristing for brands ? Thanks to scott Davies, i may receive a flow by meepo for testing ;-) we will see if there is other opportunities ! Cheers ;-)

No, you’ll be fine, the stance on this board is perfect for taller guys, wheel bite only if you put larger wheels on it, evolve and loaded dialed the bushing set up near perfect on this with their choice of 85mm wheels. 100 mm potentially might fit but you would want to tighten up the bushings due to potential wheel bite at that point. Not sure what they could fit but 100-105 might really be pushing it

@@DrewElia thanks for the good reply :) yeah little that I thought and then you probably need “risers” but can imagine that it will take away little about the feeling of the board

both are quality, but the ride feel of the Onirique from loaded has a different feel to it. more skateboard snappy feel. could be the wheels or the bushing choice. but the deck shape more me holds my feet planted and i love that. the flow though is a stupid good price and a great package for the specs. long distance, fast charger, powerful, carve, just wish that the deck was not so close to the stoke deck. I wish that they went a different choice, but people are deck swapping them out which leads to interesting possibilities

in this category there are a few DKP carver boards, if you check out my other reviews on my channel of the Tynee Stinger, and the Meepo Flow those two are a carve style board with great specs as well!

@@DrewElia thanks for your response! What are your thoughts on the Tynee Mini 2, it's on sale in Australia, super cheap and the specs look better

I’m not 💯 sure on that exact specific size, you may under hard turns get some , but the wheel flair is pretty decent and the front trucks come out a little further than normal eskate

With the loaded deck you can probably fit some larger wheels on here. I would think that maybe you would have to put some riser pads on it though if you’re running 100-110mm wheel size. Personally the cags are perfect for this board. Just as an every day ripper.

Thank you, would like MAD 105s to handle a bit rougher surfaces though. @@DrewElia

@user-tz5oo8ji4b yeah I would think that with risers it would fit, but at the sacrifice of range!

Yes, but pretty sure you can ask for the bigger 38T pulleys when ordering the board. @@DrewElia

I'm 6' 220 lbs I didn't feel cramped on the board at all due to the loaded deck length and truck placement was further out so its just stable and fun

So sadly I don’t have this board, it was only lent to me for a few weeks, but that loaded Deck makes it worth it! If you really dig the boosted mini X style and wanted to stay with that style board. Check out my tynee mini 3 pro video, same shape of the misted mini with STUPID power and a lot of customization!

@@DrewEliathanks for the reply, that’s a bummer you couldn’t keep one. I have seen the Tynee Mini, that at first was the obvious choice - but I’m also size 13..so part of me really thinks I should use this as an opportunity to switch to a fatter deck to get a more comfortable ride. One other thought (that tbh I’d prefer to not do), is to buy the Tynee Mini and deck swap with an Onirique. I’d prefer to not do this, but I’m tempted. I was very confident riding my mini X all up and down San Francisco hills almost weekly for many years now, I’m very skeptical of a lot of these new brands and how reliable they will be when I’m bombing a steep hill and the remote disconnects or the board cuts. Maybe you can’t answer this (or don’t want to), but are current Evolves reliable? The online eskate community is very vocal about older Evolve boards, but nobody is saying anything negative about current Evolve boards. Hell, even boosted used to suffer from remote disconnects…Appreciate your channel, helps having un-bias content to watch 🤘

@@nightwaves_ So I know a few people who have taken the tynee stinger (plenty of power and stupid range as well) and done deck swaps with them for the loaded omakase boards, giving you the nice longer wider deck and the power and reliability of the the tynee brand. I personally haven’t had issues with evolve, I’ve also read comments and have had friends that have had issues with them, the company did rectify the situation, but my friends have since sold the boards. That was on the older esc so I’m not to sure what to say about the newer ones. The Tynee singer is a wider fatter deck, and like I said have seen people swap out the decks, I actually talked about it in my review of the stinger. I’m a size 11 and have plenty of room on the deck to enjoy carve. If you have Instagram reach out to me @de_drones to chat more about what board will be best for YOU and YOUR needs!

@@DrewElia Tynee Stinger I had also considered, but the DKP was a turn off..suppose I could swap the trucks as well but now I’m going down even more rabbit hole ha. Appreciate that offer and candid responses, it’s been so hard to get a legit read on the state of some of these companies. I really need to sign up for IG - may hit you up shortly 😅

@@nightwaves_ of course, I’m here to serve the community and make sure you get the best board for you! I truly love connecting people with the right board for them, sometimes you don’t need a $1400 2-1 that does 35mph when you’re only cruising for 5 miles 😂 I also have Facebook as well look up my name Drew Elia you can message me there as well!

22mph

Fair enough, I appreciate the support either way man! lol

Sadly not this month but hopefully next week

Depends on you! If you like the look of this board loaded did a great job with the deck, the battery is upgraded which is nice but I belive the challenger is bigger battery and faster, it all depends on what YOU want out of the board

😂

yeah, absolutely gorgeous board, Loaded knows what they are doing when it comes to crafting some of the best decks in the game

The Tyne stinger price/spec beats the Onirique but that loaded deck is a master piece of tech and it’s so dialed in. The Tyne stinger definitely has an awesome deck design too, and with a few tweaks, ( new wheels lower riser pads) you can dial that board in to be amazing! And 544wh of battery and insane torque lets you rip around anywhere!

@@DrewElia what riser pads would you suggest? i see i can remove the motor belt cover to make some room free...

@Rastex42 I’m not sure I would want this higher off the ground? I love the lower center of gravity on this deck for that reason, but maybe 2-3mm riser pending on what wheels you’re trying to fit?

@@DrewElia i mean to lower the stinger i need to change the massive riserpad to something thinner... how thin can i go is the question :)

We need more surf skates , if it was direct drive it would be perfect.

Ops sorry , not meant as a reply to you.😊

$1500?! Where are you located? It’s $1049 with my code in US. I also understand that there are other options out there, that’s the benefit of being able to choose different boards available

Yeah, remote took a few rides to get used to but otherwise picked it up after a few squeezes of the break 😂
