Thank you for changing the title. I like how you responded to most of the complaints and showed humility. I think this whole interaction educated some of your viewers who are maybe ignorant of this issue. Everyone makes mistakes and we as a people grow trough them.
@@xxalpha-_-ghosty649 Good to hear. My issue is I'm one of the bigger riders out there. Since I weigh about 230 lbs, I have to consider whether the board is going to last very long on battery power, and if the motors are going to be powerful and reliable enough to accelerate me, carry me up heels, and reliably stop me when I want to.
Great video I just got my G2 black about 2 weeks ago and at the start of the video I was a bit against your comment but couldn't actually disagree with and by the end I totally agree with you cause as a beginner G2 really give me confident and feel safe riding on it the first mode is totally for a beginner to get use to riding the board and 2nd for after getting more experienced with your board (although I did fell once cause I think I loosen the rear bushing too much when trying to test out my carving range at a speed) What would you recommend part I get to improve the ride maybe better carving?
I am going to be a university student in a few months and want a board to get around campus! I know how to ride but I still think I am a beginner/amateur. Should I get the backfire g2 or the meepo v3???
I want a G2 black and I think it's the coolest looking board over all the backfire boards . I plan to get me one and then I'm gonna pimp it out with some shredlights and some LEDs on the bottom so I can go out on some night cruising
I'm torn between the G2 and G3. I just want a board that can handle cracks and bumps on paved roads. I won't be carving. And I won't drive much faster than 20 MPH. Just casual rides without doing anything that would increase my risk of falling. Is there a reason to get the G3 instead of the G2?
I'm about to order my first e-skate, and have my choices narrowed down to two "finalists": WowGo 2S Pro & BackFire G2 Black. Both 'tick' all the right boxes, especially for a higher-end, quality, "budget" board. I've tried searching comparisons of these two against each other, but have come up completely empty (I can find comparisons of both against the same 'other' boards...just not these two against each other). I could REALLY use some help in deciding. What would the pros/cons of each (against the other) be. Also, something (for both) I haven't been able to find on either is info on 'customer service' (especially for the U.S.) Any "assistance" would be GREATLY appreciated.
@@beans7889 Months ago...ended up getting the Backfire G2 Black, which is fantastic for a "short distance runabout". And then, for my second, I ordered (it was delivered last week) the Ownboard Zeus. Unfortunately, as I'm "out of town" by several hundred miles, and won't be home for at least a couple more weeks, I haven't gotten to test out the Zeus yet...but, I do know it contains the 'new' ESC, which gives it better acceleration & braking, and a greater overall distance.
@@robbryan3044 Hello, I know its a bit late, but was interested in if you would still recommend the Backfire G2. I'm looking to get into the e-longbording space, and don't really know where to look. But it seems decent, and is at a really good price. My main use would be for riding back and forth to uni (only a few miles), or just casual riding. Both would be around a city (local to NYC). If you have an board recommendations please let me know.
@@trumpetperson11 Personally, yes, based on your intended use, I'd recommend it. Granted, I am currently seeking mine (local pickup, opposite side of the country), but that has nothing to do with whether, or not, I still like/recommend it. In my case, had knee surgery (menial meniscus tear), so I can't ride that board anymore...but, thankfully, I can still ride my Zeus w/ pneumatic tires. The G2 Black is still outstanding as a short-distance (ie. under 10 miles) board I've already done as well as an Esk8 for those who don't want to go fast (ie. under 24mph)...and, for the price, that makes it an even better choice.
I'm still not sure what to get. I'm a truck driver and want something to grab groceries, so my road conditions can vary from day to day. I know I want a long board and probably hub motors. I was leaning towards this board, but now I'm even more confused.
@@xzkRx That might have been the same in the past, four months ago. But as of now, they are exactly identical with the only change being a slightly bigger battery in the Galaxy, but it's negligible.
@@ElectricSkateboardHQ Hey man, you changed it now and that’s what counts. Either way, you still provide really valuable esk8 reviews and you’re willing to admit your mistakes, it shows a lot of character to admit you were wrong.
I think I did something to my board........ One day the remote didn’t work, so I’m riding it today because the remote started working and I look down and realize the wheels with the wires are in the front, when I swear they where in the back before. Haha help

Hey, just need to point out that this title is inappropriate and should be changed. Not cool at all. It's disrespectful of the movement and shows a disconnect with what's going on... It makes a joke about a serious issue. You should change it and apologize for your ignorance and disrespect.
Thanks for pointing it out, and I am indeed sorry for being disrespectful to the movement. It was not my intention to joke about the issue, sorry. The title is changed.
So I'm just seeing this video and read all the comments about the title you have since changed... LOL at all the snowflakes who got their feeling hurt over a harmless joke.
I typically enjoy your videos and as the owner of an original G2 Black, think this review is pretty good, but this title is not it. Black Lives Matter is not something to be cheeky with in the title of an e-skate video.
Oof. Good review but extremely poor title choice. Somewhat of a bad representation for BackfireBoards as well. Simply edit your title in TH-cam Studio and remove that part--maybe just edit to "Backfire G2 Black 2020 Review", the vid will get lots of views either way bcuz of TH-cam algorithm's magic.

Despite all the hateful comments you gained a sub. I find it funny how they cry and whine over something that has nothing to do with black people or anything 🤣 just goes to show the intelligence level. Nice review 👍
@Tanner Young blackfire g2 2020 review i believe it was called. But either way. People are complaining about the word BLACKFIRE being so called rude and unprofessional even though it has absolutely nothing to do with skin color or anything.

Backfire is the best entry level board. No doubt.

Wowgo 3/ Wowgo Knight. - Paxson
@@ElectricSkateboardHQ why is the side of your board black, my is wood color
Definitely get this board if you’re thinking about it, had mine 2 years and almost 50k miles on it lol

Make your board more stiff you will have to do a lot more to turn like lean your body you can say the stiffness will make you have more control
I am going to be a university student in a few months and want a board to get around campus! I know how to ride but I still think I am a beginner/amateur. Should I get the backfire g2 or the meepo v3???

Is it good on rough/bumpy roads?
Yes
Its perfect
Is it heavy to carry around
I just bought waiting for shipment.. I own a V3 just wanted another board to get.. I'm going to strap one to my backpack so I'll have both to ride
I have the backfire G2 Black 2020. Why don't I have a black lining on the deck lol? Also, the remote is slightly different.
Not sure when, but for roughly a month now, the boards come with a new remote. Which looks a bit different. Not sure about the black lining.
@@ironman98 probably just missed the cut off for this new batch lol
@@vaskater07 Pretty sure you can buy the remote and then pair it.
Would this be sufficient for a 200lb beginner????
yes
i have one and I just love it!!!!!
Is it good for beginner /int? I never had one before but only seen 1000 dollar once so idk if this is still good

I'm a truck driver and want something to grab groceries, so my road conditions can vary from day to day.
I know I want a long board and probably hub motors.
I was leaning towards this board, but now I'm even more confused.
i mean, if its within about 4 miles, then sure go with this one, but if its more, it'd be better to go with a longer range board

why not a review of a g2 galaxy? :"(
is it not the same just diff color?

what range did u get ?
Would changing the bushings make it carve better?
Yes for sure
Compared to the Galaxy how do you like it? If you had to choose a newbie, would you say G2 or G2S?
G2 galaxy is more flexy and carvy. Would recommend that if you have the budget - Zk
