EVOLVE Diablo Carbon Electric Skateboard: Review and Rider Testimonials

Categories : Tests

Looking for a rigid, powerful, fast, and ultra-stable electric skateboard? You're in the right place.

Here, you'll find detailed riders’ reviews of the Evolve Diablo Carbon, a board designed for those who want to push their limits.

The Diablo Carbon builds on the Hadean model, but with major internal enhancements: more power, more range, and above all, a radically different ride feel thanks to its fully forged carbon deck.

Dive into these riders’ reviews to discover why the Diablo Carbon stands out as a top-tier reference in e-skate.

Complete review of the Evolve Diablo Carbon by Drew Elia

A board completely reinforced

Underfoot, there's a 100% carbon deck, ultra rigid.
No flex, but absolute stability. The shape features a discreet micro-drop, a subtle central concave, and a premium finish that inspires confidence.

Result: a board that holds the road at high speed, without any parasitic vibrations, offering a true surf feel, very different from the "snowboard" style of the Bamboo version.

Power and Control

The Diablo Carbon has the new 6374 motors of 3,500 W each, totaling 7,000 W.
They are paired with the controller EFOC 2.0 which manages:

Power peaks
Cell balancing
Thermal and overcurrent protection

During the reviews, the controller automatically limited the power in Corsa mode after 8 seconds at full load, to prevent overheating. A vibration signal alerts the rider, enhancing the sense of safety.

Acceleration & ride modes: progressive power buildup

The remote offers three main modes:

Eco: perfect for learning without stress
Sport: already very dynamic
Corsa: watch out, it’s explosive! The acceleration is fierce, the board takes off like a rocket

This is clearly a skateboard conceived for demanding riders.

Super Carve 2 Trucks and 7″ Tires: Precision and Grip Assured

The new Super Carve 2 trucks are a delight for carving.
They offer:

Impeccable stability at high speed
Precise ride feel

The 175 mm (7") tires provide excellent grip, even on rough or uneven roads.

Drew Elia's verdict

If you're looking for a rigid, very fast, and technically mastered electric skateboard, the Diablo Carbon is for you.

It offers a radically different ride experience from the Bamboo version: more stable, more direct, more "race", but a bit less comfortable.
An ideal board for long straight lines, heavy riders, or precise ride enthusiasts.

Solid, very well built, and designed to handle power, it confirms Evolve's mastery in the high-end segment.

Complete review of the Evolve Diablo Carbon by Average Eskate Reviews

After riding the Bamboo version, I turned my attention to the Diablo Carbon, and let me tell you right away: this board changes the game.

In this complete review, I go over the strengths, but also the limits of this high-end model by Evolve. Because beyond the impressive specs, it's on the road that the Diablo Carbon must prove it deserves its place among the top electric boards.

Premium design, clearly high-end

At first glance, the Diablo Carbon makes a statement.
Its forged carbon deck, with integrated LED "Prism Strip" style, exudes a true luxury object look.

Unlike other boards where LED lighting feels gimmicky, here everything is well integrated, elegant, robust.
And it doesn't stop there: the overall waterproofness has been improved compared to the Hadean, making the board much more reassuring in light rain.

Technical improvements: more than just a facelift

Compared to the Hadean Carbon, everything has been revised (except the deck):

More adhesive grip tape = better foot lock
20 mm wider trucks = increased stability without sacrificing carving
New motors = more power, better heat dissipation
EFOC 2.0 = better electronic management and onboard safety

You can tell that each improvement addresses a concrete need for riders.

Ride feel: stable, precise, powerful

On the road, the Diablo Carbon inspires confidence.
The combination of wide trucks, deck rigidity, and large motors creates a board that:

Stable even at low speeds
Predictable in its reactions
Excellent in moderate carving

The ride is very different from the Bamboo version, which offers more flexibility and allows for deeper carves. Here, it's more rigid, but more direct, more sporty.

Top speed and acceleration: it's snappy!

Evolve claims ~50 km/h... and it's real.
With a rider weighing 75–80 kg, the board reliably reaches 50 km/h.

Acceleration in Corsa mode is truly brutal, it takes some time to get used to. Fortunately, everything is customizable in the app or via the basic modes.
