The Backfire Zealot X2 represents a significant leap forward in premium electric skateboard engineering, delivering professional-grade performance wrapped in an eye-catching RGB-illuminated package. This isn’t just another e-skate—it’s a statement piece that backs up its bold aesthetics with serious technical credentials.

At the heart of the Zealot X2 lies a powerhouse dual motor setup featuring twin 1500W motors with 2000W peak output, propelling riders to an impressive 31 MPH top speed. The 58.8V Samsung battery pack delivers exceptional range, offering 28-34 miles depending on conditions—more than enough for extended commutes or weekend adventures.

What sets the X2 apart is its attention to detail. The composite deck combines ABS, glass fiber, and maple for optimal flex and durability, while the integrated RGB light strip adds both style and safety visibility. The premium forged CNC trucks and oversized 105mm wheels ensure smooth handling across various terrains, with the ability to tackle 35% grade hills confidently.

The Major Remote V3 deserves special mention—its 1.43-inch AMOLED touchscreen provides real-time telemetry and intuitive control that feels more like operating a premium smartphone than a skateboard remote.

At 27 pounds, the X2 strikes an excellent balance between portability and performance. The IP65 water resistance rating means you won’t be sidelined by light rain, while the 3-hour charging time keeps downtime minimal. For riders seeking premium performance without compromise, the Zealot X2 delivers an unmatched combination of speed, range, style, and reliability that justifies its position at the top of the electric skateboard hierarchy.

The MEEPO Monsoon Legacy Raceboard just dropped and it’s absolutely bonkers! This isn’t your casual cruise-around-the-block board – this is a legitimate street missile that’ll have you questioning everything you thought you knew about electric skateboarding. Let’s dive into what makes this beast tick.

The heart of this monster is a 16S3P battery configuration using Molicel P45B cells, pumping out 778Wh of pure energy. Translation? You’re looking at up to 27 miles of range and acceleration that’ll pin you to the deck. The DXW-6890 motors with 5355 stator dimensions deliver raw power that launches you to 36 mph – yes, you read that right. But speed means nothing without control, which is where the JK FOC-90B ESC shines. This racing-grade electronic speed controller ensures every input from your J6S remote translates to smooth, responsive action.

The 3-link truck system isn’t just marketing fluff either – it provides the kind of maneuverability that makes carving feel like floating. Those 165x72mm tubeless tires? They’re not just bigger for show. They grip various surfaces with confidence while the T800 carbon fiber deck keeps everything lightweight yet bulletproof. With 61% hill climbing capability and IPX5 waterproofing, this board handles whatever you throw at it.

At 44 pounds, it’s substantial but not unwieldy. The fast charger gets you 80% juice in just 40 minutes – perfect for those ‘just one more ride’ moments. This is electric skateboarding evolved.
