I would still love to have a flashy board in my lineup

[@stephenhartley3292]

I'm always evading dogs lol, remote is on another level that is for sure, also the LEDs are probably inset from the edge of the board and quite safe from damage, great video 🔥💯

[@VaporTrailChannel]

Thank you man! Yea, dogs and esk8 aren’t a great combo most of the time 😂

[@akalia_07]

I feel like S2 should have CNC forged trucks because I know a lot of people rides them e-boards aggressively. The amount of cast trucks breaking (might be user error, not sure) I've seen so far, they should use same trucks from X on S2. I know they are trying to keep the cost down for S2 but it'd be good idea to have CNC forged trucks on S2 but that's just me. I've had board with cast trucks before and they never bent or snapped on me so not sure.

[@VaporTrailChannel]

Always good questions and feedback from you man! Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

[@HotSizzleTV_]

Where is a good place to buy these trucks you mentioned or trucks and wheels from ? I am new to e skateboarding I am thinking of getting the s2

[@VaporTrailChannel]

@@HotSizzleTV_ the trucks on this board are fine, so you should be alright with them. Akalia makes a good point that CNC is better, but there haven’t been any reports that I know of where these particular trucks have been a problem, and he noted that he has had the cast trucks before and had no issues. As far as the wheels, check out Cloudwheel. Good luck in your new venture! You’ll love esk8!

[@anasalgubaisi6614]

Didnt they change it now?

[@MichaelBrashier]

I wonder how well the waterborne surf adaptor will fit. I want to get one and feel that surfskate carve.

[@VaporTrailChannel]

I’d be interested to see how that goes! I’ve only ridden those surf adaptors once. It was pretty cool. Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

[@francismanalo2154]

Which is better, X or S2? Thanks!

[@VaporTrailChannel]

I would say overall the X is going to be better. It's the "big brother" of this one. Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

[@derricktaylor5282]

I currently have the S2 and the remote will not pair with the board. Tech services have been a nightmare

[@VaporTrailChannel]

Usually their service is pretty good. But they're on New Year / Spring Festival break, along with the rest of the country, through the end of February, so you'll likely have a hard time getting any help right now.

[@Chris_42069]

Great vid! How much range do you think I can get as a 150 pound rider and also do you think its worth the price

[@VaporTrailChannel]

Hi Chris! If you’re 150lbs, you should definitely get the full stated range (from the website). As for us it worth it, that’s some thing that only the individual who is considering it would say. Value-wise, considering the feature set, the overall quality, and the ride experience, and comparing it to other boards around the same price, I would definitely say it is worth the price. But that’s just me. Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

[@thanhtrungnguyen1268]

Hello, tks for your video. Did you know what type of 120mm mo wheel they have??

[@VaporTrailChannel]

I show the 120mm in the video and it’s on their website as well. I don’t have them to test, but I did test out the Cloudwheel Rover 110r on this board. Check out that video if you’re curious about those 💯 Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

[@derricktaylor5282]

Any chance you have had the chance of that board disconnecting? I cant get the remote to pair again. Help

[@VaporTrailChannel]

Hasn’t happened to me, but I saw someone in the Backfire facebook group who did, and I’m pretty sure they were able to help. May be something with the ESC or the actual remote / antenna? I had that with my DIY board and had to replace the internal antenna module

[@nicholasdrysdale6042]

I hate to ask u this but I want this board more then any other and I’ve heard the zealot had an issue with the board braking when the remote disconnects could u go like 3 mph and turn off the remote and see if it is still is an issue I don’t want to be going 30mph and then the remote disconnects cause of a random signal air tag etc and just end up in an accident

[@VaporTrailChannel]

Mine didn't do that at all. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

Please, someone tell me how long the Battery and ESC cases are, because I want to ditch the deck for the shortest possible kicktail.

[@VaporTrailChannel]

Why not just get a nice short board? They have a ton of them coming out right now from Acedeck, Exway, and more. If you need me to measure them, I’ll be happy to do that, but I’m done for the day, so please remind me! Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

[@DennisSattler]

I guess you don't know how to use a tape measure. And that Ace deck is a joke too.

[@VaporTrailChannel]

@@DennisSattler I don’t see a need to be rude. I offered to measure it for you but asked you to remind me. I don’t always have everything sitting right in front of me. If this is your way of reminding me….alrighty then. Never mind I guess. Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻
