The best all-terrain electric mountainboard
7,000 W, brutal acceleration
The Renegade Diablo features a brand new deck by Evolve. Under your feet, two 6374 brushless motors, each with 3,500 W, totaling 7,000 W, deliver instant power. Top speed up to 62 km/h with wheel customization. For thrill-seekers, this is clearly another dimension.
40 km off-road
Samsung 50S battery, clean management thanks to the EFOC 2.0 controller. Stator easily achieved 40 km of range in all-terrain. Compared to a GTR 2, this is a real gain in freedom despite the onboard power.
Snowboard feeling
What stands out from the first few minutes: that very snowboard feeling, reinforced by the optional straps. The hold is excellent, the CNC forged trucks respond instantly, and the slightly convex deck is perfect for throwing tricks or jumps with full stability.
Custom modes allow you to adapt the behavior to your level. The regenerative braking is very reassuring on descents.
Ultra-powerful, solid, fun
If you're looking for an ultra-powerful all-terrain electric mountainboard with real range, the Renegade Diablo is for you. Designed for demanding riders, it offers an extraordinary experience but remains accessible to those who want to progress.
Solid, well-built, fun to ride: it's a great success.

Performance and ride comfort
Every detail exudes high-end quality
The Phaze remote control, entirely made of metal, is ultra-responsive, ergonomic, and equipped with a dead man's trigger for added safety. It even allows you to monitor battery cell balancing. The deck is pre-drilled, pre-threaded, with multiple positioning options for the footstraps.
There are no generic parts here. This is clearly a board designed by riders for riders.
Impressive torque, perfectly calibrated
The low-end torque is impressive. Uphill, on loose terrain, it grips hard. And the faster you go, the more stable the board becomes. You have power when you need it, without ever being catapulted at full speed.
The board is thin but slightly flexible: excellent damping comfort even on rough terrain. Evolve wheels hold pressure for several months, almost no maintenance.
Forged trucks, unflappable
Forged trucks with springs and bushings: at low speed it carves well, and as soon as you pick up speed the board stays straight and stable. The springs are not adjustable, but the ability to change the bushings allows you to adjust the ride feel.
The Renegade is the board for all-terrain enthusiasts. Powerful, reliable, built to last.
Test by ESK8UNITY
The ultimate hybrid for all-terrain
Snowboard inspiration
The 95 cm carbon fiber deck is impressive: rigid and ultra-strong, it handles stress while offering a perfectly designed concave, without an annoying central hump. Natural and intuitive posture. You feel the snowboard inspiration with every turn: stable, responsive, and super enjoyable for carving.
Grip on all terrains
Tested on asphalt, gravel, grass, and dirt: the 7-inch Knobby tires impress every time. The grip is there, and the pressure holds over time. An ultra-versatile setup that allows you to switch from one terrain to another without a hitch.
Premium finishes, responsive after-sales support
Integrated carrying handle, premium unboxing, CNC aluminum Phaze remote control, carefully provided accessories. ESK8UNITY had a small issue at the end of the test, and Evolve after-sales support reacted immediately, with return and coverage without discussion.
Samsung 50S 12S4P battery (864 Wh / 20 Ah): observed range of 49 km in mixed Corsa/Sport mode. Waterproof and flexible casing, a real plus for all-terrain.
Footstraps not included by default. Optional, but essential for committed off-road ride. Plan for them at purchase.
