@shy9909758 4 года назад

I like your reviews because you actually test the boards out full; not afraid to go fast, try street riding, sidewalk riding, like most eskaters actually use their boards for. This was fun to watch and I'm looking forward to mine showing up next month. Keep up the good content man!

@RonnieSarmiento 4 года назад

It baffles me that people think I make up or inflate any of my speed or range tests when I literally show it live during the ride. I use a time stamp camera with a speedometer to record my audio and use ride app to track my range. I take a screen shot at the end of my range test as soon as I feel the boards “usable range” is done.

The issue is YOU! You have to much skills, when you're only at 10mph, your carving look like it was at Mach one speed 😱

Thanks Ronnie for all your in depth reviews. I have been riding an off brand board that max speeds out at 12-14 mph as i am new to skateboard riding. I always wanted to learn to ride and am so addicted ESK8 now. I am 38 years old Father of 7 and my 14 year old has taught me to ride well enough and am ready to upgrade. I was about to get this board and then I came across the G3 that seemed to be great all around buy at just $549 as it fit my budget. Love your content. Just wanted you to know that I have watched pretty much everyone of your videos and you have eased my entrance into ESK8 immensely. Much Love Brother. God Bless!

@christopheradeler 4 года назад

Well done Ronnie! I Always enjoy the personality you put in your reviews. I was debating on either the Zealot or Flex-Riot for a couple of months but ended up pre-ordering the Flex-Riot. The Flex weighs a few lbs less and is a little smaller and just looks a bit more polished & sharp. I need something I can swiftly pick up and carve around the city with I think the Flex was a correct choice. But that Zealot is nice too, a Beast with a lot of power.

@akalia_07 3 года назад

Backfire is capable of making awesome belt driven boards and Zealot is my second favourite so far while first being Flex Riot. They did great job with the Zealot. Great work, Backfire!

@christopherschweighofer9045 4 года назад

I've been riding my backfire G2T for nearly a year now with about 580 miles on it and I have only had one problem with it which was it dropped almost a mile of range over the past year but most likely thats my fault for not storing it properly during the winter and also always riding it crazy hard from 100 to 0 full throttle. I love the brand and your channel, this board only seems like a big improvement over mine and I'm a big fan! Keep up the good work Ronnie, the vids have been dope.

Yo great vid as always dude! The zealot actually looks pretty sick. It might be late to the game but has wicked features for the price. Also, you tried the revel kit on the loaded icarus you’ve got (instead of the unlimited kit)? Even if you don’t make a vid, could be an interesting ride. Would have to top mount rather than drop through though

@LeonCamero 3 года назад

I saw someone with this board and we had a little speed test. That backfire is fast, but my DIY hub motor board was faster. I was at a lower voltage (30%) and had to let go of my trigger (because it was going too fast...max speed was near 40mph of course.) than his board (80%) but we both were going 30+mph. It was fun to see how fast it can go. I definitely recommend the board to those who wants to try out for their first esk8 ever. You won't be disappointed.

@cs6658 4 года назад

Ali Mirza that's rough, I had started to wonder about my shipment as well, and checked with Backfire to find out what was up too. I will say, the customer service lives up to what I'd heard. Covid has global shipping in total disarray, hopefully logistics and shipping pricing returns to normal once all this is over. At least they issued a refund on the air part.. Maybe they'll hook up a deal on the cloudwheels for your trouble? (Or at least discount air shipment on a set)

Saw your video on the Bustin Sportster Hybrid. That board looks like such quality. How do you like it compared to the Zealot and Exway flex? Know it’s not belt drive, but I’m new to the sport and just want some casual cruising, not crazy performance. It still looks like it has enough power should I need it.

@asimlatif5829 4 года назад

Hi mate been watching you video alot as wanting to get back in to skateboarding but have put on quite a lot of weight. I went on to the backfire board link to see if I could find somthing that could hold my weight and still do about 30mph I even stated the live chat with the backfire team but no one responded. Is there any electric skateboard that could hold the weight of 19stones.

@DrDoinks 4 года назад

Lmao, I loved your comment on double kingping trucks. I've always heard people love the carving on them, but I see videos and people seem to be carving at low speeds anyways. I'll take reverse king pin with the stability on high speeds for a bit of reduced carving any day. I think there are lots of people who just don't have the skill or commitment to put enough of their weight into their carves.... I'm sure they're still great but I only have one board, it's gonna be reverse kingpin first (=

This Thing is fast! I suggest that if you're a beginner like me use it at the lowest setting until you become really comfortable on the board, it can get squirrelly at higher speeds. Also be sure to wear a helmet, gloves and stiff ankle footwear minimum! I had to bail bail off mine the second day I rode it and rolled my ankle bad 🤦🏽‍♂️🥴
