Boosted Dual (2nd Gen.) vs Bamboo GTX 2in1

Riders are able to go up hills at a 20% grade or less with this board. Which is great for those that want to use one in hilly areas.

When the brakes are used, the battery is recharged with the generated energy. This allows the user to get longer battery life, which can help one travel further or save on charge time.

Most longboarders prefer a flexible design. Flex is subjective, and while you may like it or hate it, Boosted does not let you pick flex for your specific weight or flex preference.

When the battery is dead, it can be ridden like a regular skateboard.

Boosted has great customer support and help forums. You can ask questions about the board, handling updates, and advising potential fixes.

You can use the USB port on the board for various third-party accessories, such as LED lights.

The board is equipped with adjustable power limits, ensuring there’s a riding mode that’s appropriate for users of every skill level.

The Boosted Dual comes with a loaded Vanguard deck, Caliber trucks and Orangatang wheels as well as two brushless motors. While the price may be seen as steep, what you get in comparison to other boards are nice components that are meant to last.

The Boosted Board has a very appealing design with bright colors. It looks very similar to a regular longboard, so it doesn't draw too much unwanted attention.

The board can be charged from empty to full in as little as 30 minutes. This makes charging time shorter than riding time if you’re using Eco mode.

This board only weighs about 15 lbs, but can move at speeds up to 20 MPH. Boards with similar top speeds usually weigh two to three times as much as the Boosted Board.

The remote is equipped with LED lights, so it can be seen in the dark. It comes with an ergonomic thumbwheel that controls speed as well as direction. The LED display shows how much battery life is left.

The board has a wide truck system and a flexible wooden deck which makes it great for carving.

This is easily one of the top performing boards in terms of power and speed on the market right now. Naturally, it takes some skill and experience to ride. It has a huge max range - 31 miles, while the vast majority of alternatives don't go farther than 14. It can go as fast as 26 MPH, which for most people is too fast to be comfortable. It beats most competitors at climbing hills as well with 25% hill grade, compared to the usual 20%.

On just one charge you can go anywhere from 18 to 30 miles, depending on the terrain, your weight, and other factors. A typical electric skateboard can only go around 10 miles before requiring charging. The wooden-bamboo deck makes long rides more comfortable by absorbing impact from various bumps on the road that can cause strain in your legs.

The GTX Bamboo 2in1 has two sets of wheels - one for riding in the city and a larger set that can get you through rough terrain. If you don't want to pay for both, you can alternatively get either the Street or All-Terrain versions of the board.
