Carbon vs Bamboo: Which Deck Suits You for Your Electric Skateboard
Are you hesitating between a deck bamboo or carbon for your Diablo electric skateboard? Here is a detailed comparison to help you make the right choice based on your needs and preferences.
Le Flex
Carbon: Less flexible and flatter, ideal for great stability at high speed. For riders over 100kg, opt for carbon decks, which are more rigid.
Bamboo: More flexible, perfect for those who prefer a supple board and good support for carving thanks to its pronounced concave deck.
Ride experience
Deck Bamboo: Ideal for glide sports enthusiasts and old school longboard fans. Perfect for sliding and carving turns thanks to its flex. Suitable for relaxed off-road riding and sessions with friends.
Deck en Carbon: Offering great stability, it is more suitable for fast trips, competition, and for committed off-road riding.
Design
Version Carbon: Modern and sleek design
Version Bamboo: Old-school design
Battery
Although there are few differences between the batteries, their installation on the deck is different. The bamboo has a flexible external case fixed under the deck, while the carbon integrates everything inside with access through the top cover.
Our carbon boards have a power button and a charging port at the rear, while those of the boards bamboo are located on each side of the battery case.
Riders' Reviews
When purchasing your Diablo, consider the primary use and desired experience. Choose the deck that best suits your style of ride and your needs.
Our comparison between the two types of Diablo decks is similar for all our boards offering a deck in bamboo or in carbon, that is to say, the GTR2 series and the Hadean series.
