"This is a good feeling board" is what you want to hear when your board is in transit.
Literally the reason I'm watching 😂
Exactly why I am here
My Zealot S is on its way as well. I researched the hell out of this purchase. I could have purchased my friends V2 used Boosted Board but for $300 more I could not justify spending $500.00 on a used BB when I could buy a fabulous brand new board that appears from all reviews and specs to actually be a better board than anything BB has ever made. I wonder what you guys would have done. The BB has like 200 miles on it and is in good shape.
@@metaljew4456 did you hear the statement made by backfire on the zealot s? Hope your board is doing well!
@@Kalbo.. I'm curious, what was the statement?
Ronnie: the best way to conquer fear is to go at it head on
Also Ronnie: *bails*
Love your vids man keep up the good work
Make stress test on G3
I totally agree that these wheels feel super grippy when sliding or even heavy carving. I previously had a Meepo V3 and found sliding easier with the less grippy wheels of the Meepo compared to the Backfire Zealot. Not sure if that's really better overall as the grippiness definitely adds to the stability most of the time. Nice vid as always!
I fell off my backfire yesterday around tonnss of people. Pride was hurt a bit. Lol
Ooohaaahh😮
I'm so scared of breaking the battery plastic, that i never curb hop anything, even though sometimes I feel it, and I know i can do it... I would never forgive myself for breaking my board! lol (wowgo 3x)
Same here. Never in such a hurry i cant look out 4 my board.
how do you turn on the board? Do you have to flip it over and hold down a button every time you want to ride it?
The Zealot is on my list. Problem is I'm 215lb. But I'm also pushing 50 years old and it will be my first board. Would this be too flexy for me? Any suggestions please?
great video have you had any more problems with the knee did it heal on its own or did you get surgery im recovering from a dislocated knee
Whats your favorite board so far? Im on fence and the Backfire Zealot seems to be my #1 so far.
It’s all preference, research every board you can and set a good budget, if you’re going low budget then look at stuff like exway, if you’re planning on going off roading, then one wheel, there’s so many options, just research what is right for you!
I’m late to this response but I went with the zealot and couldn’t be happier. The only problem I have is it tells me it’s getting hot or some other warning pretty often, I haven’t figured it out yet or found it anywhere else. But I ride it hard and fast and full throttle acceleration and speed most of the time. Doesn’t seem to be hurting the board or causing issues, I just ride slow once it pops up and then it’s fine again. I couldn’t be happier with it personally. I haven’t drained it all the way yet, but according to the remote I got 11 miles with 25% battery left.
@@instill2180 what do you mean by lowered? And has the problem gone away even now?
Aye its probably your battery getting low mine vibrates when its getting low
@@sethsimmons3783 are you able to do tricks on it now ??
In your opinion do you like the zealot or the flex better? Or which aspects do you like better from both boards?
@Ronnie Sarmiento do you think it's possible to change the direction of the motor mountings? Like instead of the mortors being in front of the rear truck, it should be behind the rear truck? Like the exway pro riot, for example.
About how fast are you going when sliding?
Thanks for your amazing videos1 What 360 camera are you using?
Do your charge port and USB port covers pop loose often? I can't keep mine closed, just a little annoying.
Use a little tape over them bro they stay in good, been riding mine a year ish got 700km on it
I just ordered a G3 so would you say these two boards are pretty much the same except the zealot having a better battery?
Zealot has more torque
If this board survives Ronnie's abuse, I'm confident it's been stress tested for me.
I always use the remote strap but most people I see don't, is there a reason?... Going off kerbs, I tend to lift my bodyweight of the board with a Tiny lift.
What helmet is that? I want to cop one too.
This is my second day with my zealot S and I wasn’t confident to pull a slide on a tight turn. I jumped off and my board took a big scrape in the front :(
Anyone know it’s durability with impacts against walls? Like how many can I count before my board snaps?
Unfortunately, just due to the nature of impacts/damage, there's no "magic number" for a board. It depends how hard it's getting smacked, how often, impact angle, etc.
You can buy stuff to go on the sides/front of the board-like little bumpers, basically. They can help protect against this.
I really want to know what are better for slides hubs or belts? My guess is hubs as the wheels spin more freely. is this the case?
Hub sleeves are too thin, they tear when you slide
Can you do an install video on putting all the backfire lights on the zealot
I almost cried when I won the foamies but I’m like 2 months late. Hopefully not to late
Lol thats sad, i hope you get em
Cool glasses.
why dont you do a tutorials on how to do slides or Tricks on a electric skates.. like do you press the break whilst going into the slide?
I have about $1,000 that I want to spend on longboard I was thinking about getting the backfire zealot please give me your best option for an eboard
Ohhh it took me a while there to realize you're actually filming yourself with a selfie stick thing lol I thought you were being followed by a camera guy. Then I saw your shadow :D Really cool how it removes the stick from the video. Now they just need to work on removing it also from the shadow and you wouldn't even know.
next update they’ll delete the sun 👍
Hey Ronnie! Been loving watching your videos while switching from a boosted board. If you had to choose, would you pick the Zealot or the exWay flex? Also, what’s your #1 go to board for daily riding? Thanks!
The exway flex riot is awesome not quite the fastest or the best range, but probably the best all around product.
Zealot has more range and speed
@@user-ne4vg5up7z yeah, I ended up buying the zealot about a year ago…. Love it! I would have gone crazy with the lower range of the exway flex. I also like the flexier deck, deck is also wider which is really good for me since I have big feet. Saw a lot more posts of people having issues with the flex compared to zealot as well….
@@DrDoinks do you still have it and have you had any issues with it?
"A couple of scrapes" it looks like the work of freddie cruger!!!!
In all seriousness though the flex needs the deck shape of the Zealot but the flex of the flex. Those damn wheel flares are killing the flex for me into considering this as my no.2.
And I ride off curbs but with 7 inch AT's makes it super doable. Maybe wouldn't recommend for chonky riders, could be more risky for the deck but yeah I've never scraped the motors or and damage thus far.
My Meepo V3 has been on its way for 50 days and I'm sad
Look at it like your 50 days closer to getting it, i only ordered mine on Monday so I'm a fair way behind you lol, hope it come soon n let us know how it is
@@SlightlyDazed. Update, 52 days later, still no board 😅 But I suppose I can't be too upset due to the Corona virus and such, shipping companies have to make extra precautions
I ordered mine about a week ago now and im starting to get impatient already 😂 hopefully it comes sooner than later
I got lucky and my shipped from Cali in like 20 days. The long wait is normal but I love mine, well worth the wait!
@@jamesscott1849 bro I've waited 73 days for a Wowgo board.. And now they tell me its lost somewhere...
I hate curbs, here in the uk tho we’re lucky because there’s so many dips in the pavement/ sidewalk so you’re pretty much riding off of a flat surface
Can you do the Vestar night fury?
God I miss outside during quarantine. Just sucks that cities have to have people in them. 😂
Do all that on the backfire g3! I just got one and wanna know if it can handle it before I break it myself lol
Yes please
Where is the broken part ??
Are you going to do a board giveaway? Ive been looking for something not to expensive but can't really find much. It would mean alot for you to respond. Thanks for reading and taking time out of your day to make these videos.
No, sorry.
My board snapped at the truck.. never had a board snap like that in my life just from riding over cracks n shit. Weak 600 miles later shes gonna start to get weak
that battery compartment seems to long for a flexy borard
No curb hopping for me lol
Can you do review for apsu board v3? Please 🥺
I really wanted to see that too, wasn’t thinking of getting it, but was trying to get my buddy into this and the board has decent parts for the price... and you could always do a board swap, replace the bushings or front wheels if they aren’t to your liking
Just got my Zealot 2 days ago and already made 70km on it 👌 great board I'm in love
Is Zealot faster than Flex I mean acceleration not top speed?
both. yes
Yeah. I went with the zealot and it kicks pretty good. It’s probably close on acceleration, but I like any extra zoom I can get.
Backfire G3
Really, that frame you use advertise the video? "BROKEN" . C'mon man, don't be that guy.
seriously, I ordered one last night and when I saw that I was afraid that my fat ass could potentially snap the board in half
I’ve been waiting for you to upload keep it up your content is banging 😄
Will you be reviewing Fabis onsra board???
The name's Fabian.
Since getting my backfire ranger im no longer a pussy bout sidewalks an stuff
Lost interest in eskate for a while and went back regular skating. Thought about rebuilding my rig but did the market fell off a cliff? There used to be so many channels. What's with all the big tires? It's not even a skateboard anymore. How's reliability these days? Still crappy? It seems a lot of folks moved on to other vehicles because I see so few eskaters these days and I live in the big city.
Nike air cortez. You will stick onto the board
tutorial on how to slide a 20 lb board lol
Just rotate with you board and back foot and keep shoulders perpendicular to board and u kick out with back foot
A comparison video between exway flex and zealot please? :)
Amirsalar Shekharkhar I already have a Flex shipped. BUT I would like to see this too.
yes please, I'm trying to decide between the two right now
I am still waiting on comparison but I already ordered zealot. I just like that flex and lights. Still want to watch video so I can make my mind and if I want to cancel it before it get shipped out.
Peace and love man, great videos! Just getting into the hobby myself to get ready for college so keep em comin!
👌🏼👌🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Cool helmet bro. What brand is it?
I enjoyed this vid!
lol are boards are not free so.... we pick them up.
I'm buying a backfire ranger x2 or is that a bad choice?
Nice vid
Thank you for helping me choose the Meepo mini two
your the reason why I bought the meepo mini 2!
seriously lookin at one too, but, those shipping times.
I picked up the backfire g3 plus because of him
I’m actually early
Keep it up dude
How do you make your selfie stick dissapear like that? Are you using a Gopro?
SAMZIRRA insta 360
i love your videos
Hey there, I bought the Ikon edge, which will be delivered on Monday!!!!! Thanks for all your videos, which I have been watching, and which help me decide to get a board.
I had that board and just sold it to my roommate ..the range in it is horrible as you will see ...I only got about 6 miles tops in a full charger on flat smooth bike trails!! And I had it on #1 setting witch was the slowest eco mode
Could u do a test ride of the AX Mini from AE Board please? I don't see anyone talking about this eboard!
Et one the firdt
Dude that thumbnail is clickbait af. Love the video though. Hope to see more videos soon
This thing about you breaking electric skateboards is pretty silly. The tricks do not seem to work on these boards either.
Anyone else get nervous when Ronnie’s testing the flex while riding? I don’t ride off curbs, not that skilled 😅
Lol I can never trust Ronnies flex tests he rides boards way more aggressive then almost every boarder I know
My thoughts exactly. I just don't have the skills. But at age 61, I don't care much:)
juggernaugh75321 with his vigorous testing, that’s what makes me trust his reviews 😁
Is it possible to switch out the deck for a G2 deck. Those are less flexy right?
Wow, the board held up pretty well! Great testing. I really appreciate you being honest on camera and showing your fear to do these tricks, makes you look way more human 😂
will you review the wowgo3x or do you think its a good board?
Yoo love your vids. Can you try out the meepo v3
Please Ronnie would you do one of these (stress test) on the WowGo 3???
Already bought the WowGo 3 just dying waiting for it in the mail 😰
good explanation and tips on sliding,, appreciate it..
i dont hear the belt sound while i hear the wheels on the road (i never had belt drive) i was expecting its much much louder, like a hair dryer, is there any audio post-processing for it?
Can you do a review on the flex hub version plz
Agreed!
Yes!!!
I just pick the board up or roll it off for now. I might get a little more brave with my next board. Right now I only have one, so if I break it I’m screwed with how long it takes to get another.
this man too talented for 57k subs he need more
taking notes...
why the clickbait thumbnail? it exceeded expectations...?
Maybe he meant broken as in "overpowered" LOL
SOTTO SOTTO bruh there is literally a crack in the board in the thumbnail 🗿🗿🗿
Hows life Ronnie
9:44 One of the coolest tricks on an electric skateboard yet, very impressive!
U make waiting for my flex better
I usually get off and walk it sometime I want to try that but I had a bad accident two weeks ago which took me out of work for a whole week and had to get some stitches and fractured cheek bone and broke nose and couldn’t really move my left arm at all
Early and the 69th 🤪🤪 person to like
hi
I want this board too. Lol
happy hump day !
Ayyy I’m the 39th comment
You look so light and the board flexes allot with you, a heavier person won't be able to e joy the board so much.
first comment
well... almost
I love how it looks like he has an extremely tiny hand while holding the 3D camera
In Norway evry ting is open now
Save you looking. He doesn't break the board.
