by electric skateboard

A word from David

Evo-Spirit Rider
since 2011

Hi, I'm David, 46 years old. I discovered electric skateboarding in 2011 with an Evo Skate cross 800. For me, when products are reliable and efficient, I don't look elsewhere. I've trusted Evo-Spirit for over 10 years, and I regret it even less since the Switcher HP!

What I enjoy: country lanes, greenways, and bridleways. The more kilometres I get under my belt, the more I enjoy it!

The review

his conclusions

🌿 Overall Impression

What a joy to travel these country roads, canals and wooded paths. Surprised by how understated the Loire was at the beginning and by the presence of nuclear power plants along the banks.

🏰 Highlights

The Bec d'Allier with its canal bridge, and arriving at Chambord Castle by crossing the forest estate. Magical! A reliable skateboard underfoot, no worries.

🔄 And if you had to do it again?

A road trip without a backpack, or with a travel partner to carry the gear. Riding with two batteries is not a problem. Ultimately, he was delighted with this adventure and his Switcher HP.
