I bought 2 boards. One for me and one for my wife. We live in Abu Dhabi where we have such awesome sidewalks to ride on. The boards are easy to use. Easy to pair with the remote. Turn it on and off you go. We get great mileage out of a single charge.
All in all, I am very happy I decided to purchase from Backfire.
-You don't show what a pivot cup is in your manual. I had to hunt for it.
-pivot cup ruined after 200 miles of a 150lb rider on standard city runs.
-you supply 0 replacement pivot cups and you already know that yours fail often.
-the remote is beyond cheap, it's plastic gets stripped in a couple weeks.
-none of the hub screws have lock right.
-the battery screws have to be wrenched down so they don't rattle out.
Honestly, I bought backfire because it was supposed to be reliable. The most basic of replacements and needs are needed with these just as much as the cheap boards. Be cautious, If I hadn't bought this for 150 off, it would have been the worst 500 dollars I've ever spent. Backfire, step it up. Offer proper parts so I don't have to pay 20 bucks to Amazon and wait a week for non typical parts.
So out of the box the deck was warped and still is, battery life is pretty desent, just about impossible to get wheels for has they have to support a belt drive system and the ones you do fine are around 150$+,have had the trucks upper plates come loose 2 times now it will start to get a creaking noise stop and shake the trucks back and forth and rizer and every thing is loose, I put new bushing in it put some 90 hardness barrels and cones front and rear and turns pretty good little bulky tho my landyacht would easily out turn it, got pretty desent ground clearance for a eletric board so far with the issues iv had im gonna give it a 2 star
I’m a snowboarder and I’ve had a skateboards in the past. This is my first time checking it out as a Christmas present. I can’t wait to enjoy it when the weather is warmer.
Everything arrived in perfect condition.
I’m an EUC enthusiast.
So I can’t say this beginner friendly skateboard impress me.
The comfort is not there because your feet will vibrate all the time after riding it for a while, feels like it’s enough.
On EUC I have suspension and all the power I need.
I bought this board from curiosity.
But the quality is very good.
Tips for begginer first time on ESk be careful testing that sport mode.
After 20 kph it could get dangerous.
Stay at that eco mode until you’re confident you can move to the next step.
But a beautiful begginer board overall.
You get a good one for this price.
Recomand it.

I am very happy with the performance of this longboard, it's my first, I highly recommend this brand to everyone I know and I plan to buy one for my son a little later. ✌️(^‿^)✌️
The speed mode is great. It goes 33 mph while it is at low battery bars. The remote is very strong and reliable. The only problem is the charger cable gets warm when charging the board, to solve this you need to use ice pack to keep it cool.
Great ride,My first electric board ...and not the last,Great for beginners ,The battery is quite enough for one ride,Apsolutly i will recommended to everyone who loves little bit of action🚀
I have the board now for about 3 months and i was forced to drive also in strong rain and its still working very well. The 20km range is absolutely fine and in eco mode u can get easy to 30km range(i weight 60kg). And even with my weight its easy to turn around and even with 38kmh i have a stable stand on the board. I drove over 600km with this board and i would say its the best board around the price range. And i love that its gear drive. The only thing thats a little bit annoying is Overvoltage. But its easy fixable. Just drive a little bit and turn the board on the board(not with the remote) off and then on again and its fixed. The remote is very nice to hold and i love the hole in it. And the design of the board looks also great. I hope my english is good enough everyone understands it.
After riding Backfire G2 old wersion got photos with 1670km and now with 3 month of G2 black and G… I well never choose another mark but There couple of thinks witch well but there is couple of things which could make that product to be a top of the level , ‼️
You guys did a great job no complaints at all they paid for the shipping they addressed the minor issue with stellar results and a crunchy turn around time. Thank you!
Thank you Backfire the G2 Black is great ride very please whit qualitie of the board love the 90mm orange wheels and the foldable handle nice upgrade thank you.
3rd board I have purchased in 6 months. Love the boards. Both of my adult sons and I, love to ride together. I am in my early 50’s. All of my friends who have ridden my board say the same thing, “I feel like a kid again!” I live on an island. The roads get quite busy in the summer. I usually ride my Backfire e sk8board to the store in order to avoid traffic. Forget about parking when you go surfing. Ride skateboard to the beach. I love the cruise control and other options. Since getting my board, I skate every day that it doesn’t rain. I have men and women from ages 20-55 riding my boards, comfortably, safely and having the time of their lives! Every one that rides my Backfire wants to know how they can get their hands on one! 1 of the best purchases of my life! Extremely happy!
