Greater than one weekWas really good in the beginning. I rode it for about half an hour and the bearings froze up on me. I can still ride the board, just that the bearings are not as smooth as when I first hopped on it. Definitely should have just ordered replacement bearings from bones at the same time as buying the board. Beautiful wood and bamboo

> 3 dayI bought this board for casual use and it adds a lot of fun to my dog-walking activity. So pushing around on a flat surface for approximately 5 miles a day. I love everything about the design. For me, the board has a perfect weight, nice flex, smooth ride, and overall excellent performance, but after only two weeks of riding the deck developed several long cracks. Given I am 210lbs, but I only use it to go straight on a flat surface of Illinois flatlands. Rolling down a small hill at approximately 10 mph was the craziest thing I did on this board. Very sad, because if not for the aforementioned flaws this is a really great board. Given the amount of 5-star reviews I am willing to give it a benefit of a doubt, maybe I got a lemon. Update: Ive reached out to Magnetostore and within minutes got a response. They requested some pictures of the damage and got back to me the next day saying that the replacement board is being shipped the same day. The replacement board arrived by FedEx in less than a week, even though Ive only asked for the deck to be replaced Magnetostore sent me the entire new board. Given the speed and quality of the customer service Ive received, I believe a 5-star review is in order.

> 3 dayAfter researching many different boards, I finally decided to purchase this one and I am very happy I did so. The aspects of this board that stuck out most to me are the price (for what you get especially now that I have the board), other reviews, and the natural look In use, the board has proven to be quite sturdy. I have ridden it approximately 60 miles by now and have had no issues. It has taken several hard hits to the curb and no splintering or cracking is to be seen. The stock bearings are admittedly not incredibly smooth. $20 can get you a great new set of bearings that will match the quality of the rest of the board. Overall, I would highly recommend this board to anyone.

> 3 dayExactly as promised. Great deck, trucks, wheels, and bearings. I wanted a cruiser board for riding the asphalt trail a few miles to downtown. Great for me.

Greater than one weekMy child recently became interested in longboatding but neither of us know anyone close to us rhar skates. Magneto had very explanations of each of their boards, and it helped! The Hana is perfect with the right amount of stability, stiffness, and control. Very smooth ride. Everyone in the fam wants one now!

> 3 dayRides smooth like you’re on water. I’ve only gotten it up to about 35mph but was amazingly stable & would have been so at higher speed. All this considering it m 6’2” & 185 lbs & I like my trucks loose to carve the terrain. I love this board!

> 3 dayIm very new to longboarding and this is the only one Ive ever been on so take that into consideration. I really like this board. It came with a tool to adjust the responsiveness of the trucks. Once loosened up it is very easy to turn. Im right around 200lbs and it holds me just fine. The only reason I am not rating it higher is that theres a very noticeable defect in the grip tape application. It doesnt bother me at all but it is worth noting if you are super picky. Ive already ordered a second board based on how much fun this one is. Recommended.

Greater than one weekPROS: The riding is so smooth and it comes ready to ride right out of the box. What I love about this board is that it is high off the ground due to the risers they put in with the trucks of the board and how quickly it can cut and carve around things. It is also super steady when pushing off the ground and it is great for both bombing hills or just cruising around. The length and design of the board are also very nice because its not too short nor too long and its deck is stable while riding downhill. CONS: There was only one minor dent in the tip of the board when it arrived to my house due to shipping and handling but it wasnt a big deal since I figured I was gonna put some more dents and scratches on it eventually anyways. Another thing is that the wheels and bearings dont roll for very long so you might have to loosen up your wheels or change your bearings for more riding and less pushing. Last thing is that this board can cut and carve super fast and easily if you have the trucks loosened up but if you are planning on going downhill please tighten the trucks to make it more stable or else you will wreck like I did.

> 3 dayUpdate (5/21/17) After a month of using this board, I really feel like its the best cruising board I have. Its really stable and it grabs my feet well. I can go over some pretty big cracks and bumps without it suddenly changing direction (which is really important because I ride with my right foot towards the back) The stock wheels and bearing are still smooth. Occasionally, I have to tighten the truck mounting screws. Magneto Bamboo Longboard (not the carbon one) This is a great board for cruising around trails and exploring the town. Its rock solid, not too bouncy, and very very stable while providing a decently tight turn radius. It gives a bit if you bounce one it - but my 180lbs doesnt bend it more than an inch. It feels nearly unbreakable. I dont think Ill be replacing the trucks/wheels with anything, the stock ones are very very nice. Im impressed at the quality of this board -- its beautiful to look at and it rides like a cloud. If I turn the board hard, the turning radius doesnt allow me to completely do a u-turn on my residential USA street...Its close, but I always end up in the shoulder and in the grass.

21-11-2024Everything looks awesome I got it today cant wait to ride it this weekend but as soon as I got on it after unpacking I heard a pop, seems like one of the screws was overtighten , doesnt seem like a biggie, hopefully the crack wont get any bigger , but I thought I should point it out
