    i bought my bamboo gt about 2 months ago and was very happy, just bought the 97mm flywheel and the AT wheels so i was very exited to go and ride it.
    today i decided to got for a ride and i went over a small puddle of water, the board was fine and i kept riding until i got home, i shut it off cleaned it and tried to turn it on but now theres no power, no light on the board
    i unscrewed the battery cover and it had a drop of water no bigger then a penny and everything else was dry.
    whats can i do?:sob:

    That happens. I just had the same issue 2 days ago. Your options are to send it to evolve for "repair," or honestly, just do it yourself. The board basically lost connection somewhere, so you need to open it up, dry EVERYTHING, disconnect, then reconnect every cable, then you should be fine. If that doesn't work, rinse then repeat, it's almost always a connection issue.

    That was a nice scare

    Went through a sizable puddle last night, only had the board for a month.

    Hope it works.
    I think I'm going to put some black silicone around the battery cover, it may help a little

    Word. Don't overdo it though, the batteries need to breath. Best thing is to avoid water. ;)
