More about What We Like and Any Drawbacks

The amount of fun you can get carving on this board is phenomenal, as per several reviewers of different skill levels. The board is made of flexible bamboo with a glass fiber deck, allowing you to get low for tight turns and high speeds.

All of this with two 450W hub motors that provide the torque you want for the ultimate ride. Your buddies are sure to be jealous of your board, which has not only high performance but also looks rugged and modern.

With a max load of 260 pounds, though, the G3 Electric Skateboard won’t hold a larger adult. We hope in the future that weight limit will increase to allow more people to ride it. However, we understand that it would likely require design changes to keep it going as fast and smoothly if that weight upgrade is made.

Also, the time to fully charge is 3.5 hours, which is a fair amount to have to wait, especially if you are charging it while away from home. But we feel the power and distance you can go on this board make up for the long charging time.

That point is especially true when you consider the affordability of the Backfire G3. It offers high-speed racing without breaking the budget, and there’s a lot to be said for that.

Plus, it’s easy to use with a Backfire R3 wireless remote. Featuring an OLED display, it enables you to see miles or kilometers, depending on your preference. See at a glance your mode, speed, range, how much battery is left, odometer, and connection.

This remote provides an easy way to turn on Turbo Mode with just the click of a button for 20% more acceleration. Aside from Turbo, select Eco Mode or Sport Mode to get the rider experience you want on a particular day. We like that you can customize it and change as you want to, as well as using the fixed road cruise speed.

What is Unique about the G3?

A thoughtful feature of Backfire’s G3 Electric Skateboard is the built-in USB charging port. Quickly charge your phone using it, whether at home or away on an adventure.

This handy characteristic isn’t one that you’ll find with every board out there. It’ll save you having to pack a charger. Having less to carry means that you can focus more on getting the deep turns and speed you want to achieve.

There are three different wheel diameters too. The wheels are 83, 96, or 165mm. Along with the different riding modes, having different wheel sizes provides a custom experience.

Lastly, the LED ambient lights look sporty and provide you with the illumination to see through dark conditions like nighttime riding. These bright lights can help you navigate around obstacles you might not otherwise know were there for a safer experience.

Backfire G3 Electric Skateboard Review Conclusions

As a highly flexible board with three sizes of wheels, rugged good looks, and Turbo mode, the G3 Electric Skateboard is receiving rave reviews. It suits a variety of skill levels, all at a mid-range price that makes it high value.

Get fast speeds and go far on a single charge, getting a great user experience with the high-tech remote and LED lights. The unique USB feature helps this board stand out from the competition too. If you’re looking for a new way to get around the local area, this board could be just the one for you.
