GTR Bamboo Street

GTR Bamboo (Available as GTR Bamboo Street or GTR Bamboo All Terrain)

E lectronics for the GTR Carbon and Bamboo boards are the same – delivering the speed, power and range of the corresponding models – as are the trucks, gears and remotes. The material and form factor of the decks themselves comprise the difference between the Bamboo and Carbon boards. The GTR Bamboo deck is a combination of three-ply bamboo and two-ply fiberglass. This allows maximum flexibility to smoothly link your turns, and it also helps absorb the bumps on a ride. It‘s like a longboard experience on land. The Bamboo deck is concave in design, so

pushing off the edge is an option when carving down the street. Unlike the Carbon decks, the Bamboo wheelbase is adjustable. A shorter base means tighter cuts and sharper turns. It all adds up to the GTR Bamboo offering more maneuverability, while the GTR Carbon offers more stability at high speeds. The batteries for the Bamboo boards undergird the deck, making it thicker and heavier overall compared to the Carbon boards, where the batteries are inside the deck. However, the Bamboo boards have USB-charged strip lights, while the Carbon boards do not.

GTR Bamboo All Terrain

GTRDELIVERS2 IN 1

With the Evolve GTR Series, you don‘t need to buy two boards to experience both Street and All Terrain. Whether you choose Street or All Terrain to start with, you can simply add on a Conversion Kit at the time of purchase, or at a later date. But you won‘t want to stop there, you can also choose from different tyre sizes, to track patterns and even colours. A world of customisation awaits.

Evolve Stoke

R esponding to popular demand, the Stoke is a shorter and lighter board for portability. It still has the same brains and power as the GTR boards, so just like that series, the motor can deliver 3000W in total, which makes the Evolve Stoke a pocket rocket. The swallow-shaped kick tail is fully functioning and can be used for popping off small curbs, 180s and full 360s. With this in mind, the Stoke comes fitted with a rear Bash Guard to protect the battery from all that

popping action. The design for durability also extends to silicon seals that prevent moisture and dust from entering the electronics casing.

pack compared to the GTR series. Nonetheless, this pocket rocket is its own unique experience, so you can pop till you drop. Lightweight and portable, the Stoke is a perfect last mile vehicle, and your trip to the corner shop will be a wild ride every time.

The Stoke is matched with top of the line Orangatang Caguamas 85mm wheels for tearing it up when sidewalk surfing. It cannot fit all terrain wheels or larger urethane wheels. The shorter form factor also means a smaller battery
