Ronnie what is the weight of the board?? No indication no where?''
Bro I love you and the support you give but this info is literally on their website. Hit compare and all specs are listed for all boards.
@@RonnieSarmiento oh sorry then, I was on the main backfire zealot page, saw all types of characteristics but not the weight!
No problem, hope that info helps!
Ronnie Sarmiento check out Bustin board bro
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!
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 😱
Zealot or nls pro bro?
@@rootforce2013 You probably won't be disappointed with either, but I sure do like my NLS Pro.
Its probably jealousy / disbelief because they're stuck riding an Ancheer or something lol
I got 24 mile range on my G3 on all 4 times from full charge. I weigh 145 pounds and ride mostly on smooth asphalt with minimal hills. Average speed 10-15 mph.
I’ll never get tired of tears streaming down my face. It reminds me of how lucky I am to own an electric board. Sometimes it’s easy to take things for granted. Great video man!
Man, I just got my zealot and I absolutely love it. If it weren’t for your amazing reviews on all the different boards, I would have no clue what board to get. Thank bro, your a real one.
Glad you enjoy it!
I'm pretty new to e skate however, ever since i rode one, i felt in love with it. I ordered a zealot!! very excited! and thanks for the awesome info Ronnie!
"Should I get board A or board B?" That decision is up to you. There is enough info on my channel, and throughout the internet to make an informed decision. YOU will be riding the board, so you have to go with one that fits your needs, wants, and budget.
Ronnie which one do you think has more torque g3 or zealot
I don’t have a g3, but probably the zealot
Ronnie can you make a comparison of this board vs exway pro riot?
I thought you had the g3 plus
I do
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!
Did you get your board?
I want to ride where you were. You make it look so easy and fun.
Yo Ronnie, "I'd say" you get enough stupid questions so I just shoot you some praise, I think you do a great job I'm glad you got w Daniel Qwan , I really dig his s **t too..I've been sk8in for my whole life and I'm just too old to push n fall anymore and u taught me a lot and helped me make a lot of decisions especially when ur spending hundreds "well now my new one 1,500 " of dollars.. keep up the good work ur truly enertaining for sure... btw u should try one of Fabi's boards I'd like an honest review from someone other than himself 🤔 Be easy, Matt
I just bought this yesterday with the discount. It looks terrifyingly fast. I can't wait until it arrives.
I’m stoked for you! I’m happy when anyone gets on board!
Thanks for this review! You convinced me to pick up a zealot, mine arrives today! Super excited!
Thanks for the informative videos! I started watching a couple days ago to do some research on buying my first electric skateboard, and the quality here is some of the best I've seen. Decided to go with the Backfire Zealot after hearing from you and DKwan. Keep up the great content brotha!
Just ordered mine with air shipping.thanks Ronnie for the discount code.My first E board.EXCITED!
Finally~ Thank you for the review!
I have been waiting for this video for days man. I kept rewatching old videos hoping to refresh and see a new one. Thanks for the review!
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!
I enjoyed the little rant at the end Ronnie. Love the work and keep producing more great content like this :)
I'd love to try one, looks very nice. 29-30 mph is no joke. Looks like I am going to have to upgrade my 10s DIY to 12s so I don't get out sped by a prebuilt! Ride safe Ronnie!
Just got my Backfire G3 on Monday, July 6th. It has an AWESOME Bamboo Deck and I am having SOOO MUCH FUN WITH IT. Now I am thinking about the Zealot because its Belt Driven and I want to try that as well. Your video has swayed me to GET THAT BABY AS WELL. ORDER PLACED. I will let you guys know when it arrives.
How is the deck 🤔
Just ordered one after watching your video. Thanks bro. Let us know if you need the hook up on any home theater stuff.
Your video sold me. For sure going to buy this. My first electric board was the boosted mini. This looks like a HUGE upgrade
I just got mine yesterday n boyyy fun. Although i ate some today from breaking hard on a turn. Very fun to ride!
What dfd I'd u get

@@6kidds81 backfire zealot
how’s the board holding up?
@@davidtrumbo4184 been riding it everyday, about 3 miles commute to work. Its holding up pretty well. Turbo mode is Insane!
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.
Christopher Schweighofer yeah the G3 and this board are a step up. I have the G2t, G3
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.
When Ronnie’s top speed test was better than the claimed u know its good :D
Awesome video, laid back and relaxed. Hands down best vlog riding I've ever seen!! Beautiful footage !! 😁😁
All i learned was Ronnie weighs 200 pounds. Quarantine going crazy! lol jk man awesome video as always.
Woah who said 200 😳
200?! No way! 🤣
I could have sworn he said he weighs 165 in another video
Your channel is like if Jimmy Fallon did eskate reviews
Do a Backfire Zealot vs Exway Flex comparison 💪🏽
i just ordered the zealot s i can not wait until it comes in this being my first electric board
I bought my Bamboo Zealot late last month and I love it sooo much would definitely recommend to any riders under 200 lbs. 48 miles in and take it every where I can in my little town.
What about if you're over 200
@@Chriselchingon23 I peak 200 lbs so I don't know but maybe something with a maple deck.
My top speed on turbo mode was 33.9 mph. I was going up a hill. Scary fun
Hey Ronnie I’ve been watching all of your videos since the first Meepo review, and I finally decided to buy some merch. Keep it up!
You have (almost) convinced me to purchase another belt drive board:) This was a great real world riding review.
Hey so do you have to be careful about curbs or scratching the battery packs or are they really strong?
just grabbed one on sale for 700 dollars i cant believe how sweet the deal was, hoping its better thank my boosted v2 dual extended
Same man. It'll smoke the boosted in speed and range. Just hope the deck and trucks are as good and it'll be awesome
@@DrDoinks super excited for the new gen of e boards!! If the stock goes public I'm buying backfire stocks
PUNK_N_ROCK absolutely, id say that that have most of the budget board market out of all of the competitors.... good support too
mine is coming in the mail. can't wait!!!
funny how you said its there first belt board but the really furst one i still have is also belt but just on one wheel in the back but yea that was my first backfire board, i still have it if you wanna see😂
Cloud wheels making 105mm? Dope!
Your camera makes it look like your going faster then you really are.
Would you say the composite or bamboo deck is better. Don’t know what to order. Whats your opinion?
6:01 sounds like r2d2 screaming
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 🤦🏽♂️🥴
Thanks for making a video on the BF zealot. I was on the fence about getting the exway flex after seeing the results from yours and DKWAN videos. Seeing as they’re all basically identical at that price pt and that rumored app coming in later this would be a nice budget board to add to my quiver.
What did you end up getting?/ like more?
I love your channel Ronnie, keep up the good work bro!🤙🤙
iirc, backfire 1st board was a single motor belt drive board.
How did you record this? The perspective is really cool! Great job on the review and thank you, I've been waiting for a Z review
360 camera. Made a ton of vids on how I do it if you’re interested
I love the way you film your vids. The camera is awesome!!
I just bought one!!!! Got the new composite deck as well. I'm a bit heavier. So excited!
I love bombing that path behind the target and 4 mile run underneath it. I only have a scooter right now but you're making me want to get an electric board realllllly bad!
The turbo mode footage reminded me of this show call street hawk.
The backfire boards come perfectly tensioned now by the way
I LOVE your videos Ronnie!! I almost in middle school, but watching your videos inspired me to get my own electric skateboard, and I have one budget board from amazon, but I’m saving up for a boosted mini!
That is awesome!
11:23 Thanks for the shoutout!!! 😂
Dont be a baby, push! 😂
I’m sayin!!! Some people never struggled pushing a street board with 50mm wheels on rough roads for miles to find skate spots. I’ll take a dead aboard over that any day.
Ronnie's coupon code still works as of today. I just used it. I added it to Honey so hopefully that sends something good your way, Ronnie.
How you liking the board?
awesome vids! just bought myself a board! could you review the teamgee h8?
Tell teamgee to hit ya boy up
Gawd damn that looked fun.
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.
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.
Awesome review Ronnie 🤓👍
Dude, this board is AMAZING!!!! 🤙🏽
“Sport Mode a little nutty” classic
Do you thing the $1000 carbon fiber one is worth the money?
Dude just ordered my zealot!!!! I'm so freaking excited!!!
How do you like it??
I love your 360 camera angles.
Ronnie which board has more torque, exway flex or backfire zealot?
If there’s any difference, it’s negligible. They all feel similar.
Yo that thing is fast! I got the G3 on the way tho as my first e-board! Greetings from belgium :)
Yours didn’t got delay ? I ordered one a week ago and they are out of stock they say i will have to wait 4 weeks maybe 5 with delivery can’t wait too G3 🦾
@@TheValbunnys I have not recieved a mail yet that it shipped. On the website it said that the G3 was still in stock so thats what im expecting.
ZeroPlusTV 😬. They didn’t email me either I contact them to check the progress and the say they are out of stock they offer refund but I say I was happy to wait
@@TheValbunnys wow. They could have atleast mailed with back order or something. Thanks for the info. Im not sure if I wanna wait that long xD
ZeroPlusTV contact them man maybe you are lucky and your board was ordered before mine and will arrived soon good luck 👍
Love the vids, keep it up
Why does the area you live in look like a fantasy dream like place.
Near DC
i just ordered the backfire zealot is there anything I should know about it or that needs to be done when I take it out of the box other than maybe charge it?
I'm looking to buy a eboard thats actually not a waste of money I had a boosted board but It felt slow so can u tell me if this board is one of the best boards on the market and if its not please tell me a good board
“that’s plenty fast on a piece of wood”
lmao if that ain’t facts idk what is 🤣
Lol FACTS 😂
Can't wait to get mine and travel faster then ever
Looks like a pretty decent board the only thing I don’t like about the longboards is the turning radius
Is the zealot loud compared to hub motors? I’m afraid to buy one and then it’s too loud ?
Hey Ronnie i remember you did a review on a vestarboard black hawkI recently ordered a board from vestarboard but they haven’t followed up with any information or confirmation what’s going on with them are they legit or where can I contact them please thank you
Dude I’m 230 lbs. I want a board that’s super comfy and absorbs cracks and bumps good cuz I’m a noob at skating. Should I go for the zealot or zealot s?
I just used your code to buy a zealot! thanks Ronnie!
Some1 help me choose please!! Meepo V3ER, Meepo NLS Pro, Backfire G3, or Backfire Zealot?? Any advice is appreciated :)
Does the flexible deck make a big difference when it comes to stability when you go over cracks/bumps in the road?
Hello Ronnie, I once put gullwing dkp trucks on a backfire g2t and I think it worked well and felt stable. When you look at the width of a truck do you measure from the end of the axles? Thanks
hey man, great channel. question re the board. is there a light hum/buzz when the board is turned on and not running? wasnt sure if this wass normal. thanks
It looks like it would feel similar to my Boosted Stealth
Wow that's pretty fast plus nice review. You should review the meepo board V3
This or Exway Flex? Are there any hidden issues? I’ve seen Flex users complaining about overheating. I wonder if there are any similar issues with this board.
I'm planning on getting one of these boards.Which would you guys recommend?
X1 riot pro (belt drive)
Exway riot
Zealot
I plan on using it on bike paths and sidewalks. Some times the sidewalks will be bumpy
Get the zealot!
I'm considering a board but not sure whether to go for belt or hub motors. The main concern for me is the noise. Can anyone tell me exactly how loud a belt board is? If you have a decibel number that's great, if not could you compare it to something, e.g. the same volume as a casual conversation, or the same volume as a car when you're in the drivers seat, etc. Thanks everyone!
Great video MAN!
Everyone stay safe out there in this unpredictable world
Does someone know if the zealot uses standard bearings or special backfire sized ones? Thx
i was wondering if these boards all come with a spare battery you can replace while on the go. im brand new and looking to get my first electric long board. ive always used acoustic haha. and if it does not what board can you recommend with a similar review that does?
Not all of them, first I can think of is revel kit
Dope, I order one. Love belts and love rang! Thanks!
Can you swap batteries on this board while on a ride to extend range?
Question: would you get this board over Halo Beast? Any advice would be great. Thanks
I’m a non skater, so I’m worried about shock absorption and bumps. And I’m like 225 lbs. I was wondering whether I should get the exway flex (which I prefer) or the backfire zealot / s cuz of the flexier deck and bigger wheels?
Hi Ronnie, I wanted to buy this skate (Backfire Zealot) but now you can choose between the bamboo and fiberglass board and the composite one (maple and fiberglass) I'm undecided. Which one should I choose? Which would you choose? Greetings from Italy!
Ronnie, would you recommend the Zealot or G3 Plus? Which board is most versatile? What do you like best?
6:30 where is this? and how could you cruise on the sidewalks and main road? isn't it illegal?.. and the road is flawlessly smooth.
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
How did you get the board so fast?? I ordered a G3 on March 18th and I'm still waiting for it to clear customs after I paid extra for air shipping...
