No, Evolve boards are not waterproof, and we don’t recommend riding in wet conditions.

Why You Should Avoid Wet Surfaces

Electric skateboarding relies on friction—both for acceleration and braking. Wet roads reduce grip, making it easier to lose control, slide out, or struggle to stop properly. Riding in wet conditions is dangerous for you, your board, and those around you.

Water Resistance & Protection on Newer Models

While our boards aren’t water-rated, we’ve made improvements in newer models to better protect against accidental exposure:

✅ Hadean, GTR, and Stoke models feature:

• Dust seals around the casing perimeter
• Conformal coating for added protection of electrical components

✅ Diablo, Renegade, and Stoke X models go even further with:

• Additional lip seals for extra protection against water ingress
• Thicker sealing above the battery and board to reduce the likelihood of moisture damage

These measures help protect against minor splashes, but exposure to water can still cause damage to electronics, bearings, and other components, which is not covered under warranty.

What Happens if My Board Gets Wet?

Even with added protection, water can cause serious issues, including:
❌ Motor and ESC damage – Moisture can short-circuit components.
❌ Bearing rust – Water can cause premature wear and failure.
❌ Reduced grip and safety risks – Slippery roads make riding unpredictable.

If your board does get wet, dry it immediately, clean the bearings, and inspect all components for potential damage.

Final Tip: Check the Weather Before You Ride

Always check the forecast before heading out—if there's rain or damp conditions, it’s best to wait it out. Keeping your board dry ensures its longevity and top performance.
