Metroboard is known for its high quality and long-range boards. I mean they built their first eboard in 2004! In 2004! Hardly any other company was even thinking about e-skateboards at this time. The company Metroboard has probably the longest history off all, designing and manufacturing electric skateboards. If you’re looking for a board that’s built tough and has the most powerful hub motors on the market, the Backfire Ranger X3 is your next board! The website offers live chat support as well, so if you find yourself with more question you can utilize their customer service. The website offers a plethora of pictures to view the board from all angles, giving another opportunity to show off some of its accessories and features. The product doesn’t have many reviews, though every review I read was extremely positive. However, you should be patient and attach lots of pictures or videos to your support request. For a chinese Eskate company, Backfire has good support. The Backfire Ranger X3 also has a “Smart-Turn-On” feature, which means you can turn on the board by simply turning on the remote (normally you would have to turn on both separately). To avoid any scrapes from off-road riding, the battery housing was kept as flat as possible and still has a good 5 inches distance to the ground. The deck is a so-called “drop down” deck, so the center of gravity is closer to the road. The board reaches up to 24 mph and has a range of 15 – 21 miles. Recently they introduced the new version the Backfire Ranger X3. It was very popular, that’s why Backfire tries to constantly improve it. In 2018 they successfully raised $330.000 USD for their all-terrain eboard model, the Backfire Ranger X1. They are a 11-year-old company, having sustained the ups and downs of the esk8 industry. Of all the Chinese manufacturers, Backfire may have the richest operating history. In 2017, Backfire introduced the G2, which was very popular and successful. First, the company only built regular skateboards but in 2011 they jumped into the electric skateboard market as well. It was founded in 2009 by Randy and Jerry, two Chinese skateboard enthusiasts. The Ranger X3 is manufactured by Backfire skateboards, a Chinese company. Remember that the production volume is not very high hens manufacturing and shipping will take quite some time. You will likely use the BajaBoard in much rougher and dirtier environments than your average e-skateboard.
Astroboard skateboard upgrade#
When upgrading, the company will either send you a kit to upgrade yourself or you can send the board back to them.
This is a good way to go if you don’t have all the money upfront to get top of the line. If you buy a G4, you can upgrade it to a G4X at a later date.
Basically, don’t let water wash over your board. However, it is not waterproof, so we recommend not riding into deep puddles or heavy rain. The BajaBoard has been made water resistant, so you can certainly ride on wet surfaces. One drawback of bajaboard is that they are heavy! So heavy that it is not designed to be pushed by foot, hence if your battery is empty you have to carry it. The board has, as accessories, integrated headlights and taillights. The controller will warn you when you’re low on battery or you’re going too fast using vibration. You can customize every setting you can think of and it also has a vibration warning. The remote controller is the most advanced and best-designed controller I’ve ever seen. It has a special suspension system with shock absorbers which gives their boards their trademark look.
