Playshion Longboard Skateboard Cruiser | 39 Drop Through Long Board | 42 Pintail Longboards

This is my first experience with a long board, but it has been a good one! I was happy when my package arrived a couple days early (Im not a prime member, but the free shipping by Playshion was a great deal!) Out of the box the board was ready to go, beautiful, undamaged, and all around great. I am a 6 1 220 lb guy and this rides great with me on it. After getting a few miles under the wheels, the board really starts to come alive and hit its stride. The bearings and wheels on this are great for just simple cruising. I dont think theyre the fastest things available, but for my purposes they are plenty great. I have had no problems with the board at all. I may in the future look at some harder wheels so I can be more slidey, but the soft wheels that come on it are great for just chill riding. I would definitely recommend this board to anyone, especially beginners. Buy it and have a great time with it!

Dont bother looking at other boards for a beginner - choose this one, you wont regret it! Ill start by stating that I was never great at skateboarding as a kid, however, I began snowboarding around the age of 12, and quickly developed a passion for it and became moderately advanced at the sport. However, this was my first crack at longboarding. Living in Chicago, I was hoping to have a way to get around quicker in the spring/summer/fall. It only took me about 30 minutes to get used to the board, and another 30 to learn exactly where I liked my feet placement, how to properly push while riding, and make turns. This might have been the easiest new skill Ive ever picked up, and I largely attribute it to this board! The company is also fantastic, as the shipping is incredibly quick, and I had to option to work with one of their employees Mike on replacing a part of my board that I broke, and they provided superior customer service! Thanks guys!

I was searching through Amazon looking for a good, reliable long board that could last me a while and came across numerous other options for roughly the same price. I would check the reviews of the other boards and cracking/breaking was a common issue with a good amount of them. To add on, the bearings and trucks were cheaply made, making me choose Playshion instead. The common issue with boards at this price range are the bearings and the trucks, but with this board they are pretty good if you loosen them slightly. Before this board, I used a Sector 9 board which is about $150-200 which I enjoyed riding but gave away to a relative. I will be honest and say the Playshion board can be compared to the Sector 9 because it is priced perfectly for what you get. The maple wood feels great, although it does have some wood splinters that werent smoothed down. The wheels are wide and make it easy to go over pretty much everything, rocks, branches, and even curbs. The bearings are alright and you wont have to change them for a good while. As I said, the only thing about this board is that you have to loosen the trucks and wheels a bit so that you can go faster, but at the same time I enjoy to have my board a bit more sensitive than most. Overall, I would recommend this board to anyone who is getting into long-boarding and doesnt want to break the bank. The concave design of the board makes it easy to steer and control for those learning as well.

Well....I did not hop on it myself....however ....the teen instantly approved (which does not happen all that often really)!! The graphics on the board are beautiful ...the wheels are great....it came on time and undamaged with the correct tool to adjust wheels!! OK....I did get on it....I just did not go anywhere.......felt really good to me.....!!!!!!!

I thought this was a great board for beginners and noncostly. I definitely had fun practicing with it. I wasnt sure if longboarding was something for me but Im really liking it after this experience and am looking forward to upgrading the parts on this board.

Very pleased with the product itself. However, the customer service provided was over the top. Fast response! Very helpful! Highly recommend!

The whole thing cracked on the bottom. Now my son can’t ride it and it’s only about two months old. Update: excellent customer service. Customer service contacted me right away to see how they could help or fix the situation. They sent me a new board right away. So far it’s been great. For me when you have good customer service it goes a long way. Tells me they care about their product and their customers. My son was super excited and has been riding the board ever since he received. They did not have to respond or send us a new board but I appreciate that they did!

This board is really strong. It’s a bit heavy but that makes it more sturdy to stand on and skate. PROS- As a beginner myself I found this very easy to get used to and adjust according to how I skate. Standing on it isn’t shaky and it’s firm when skating, turning is also really smooth. The design is nice and simple. It comes with stickers and tools. CONS- It’s a little overwhelming at first to get used to how quickly the board picks up speed. Going down a slight hill caused it to gain a lot of speed. It’s also a bit heavy to carry around if you’re not using it and since it’s heavy. I also think it would be hard to do any tricks since it’s not flexible. Overall, a good starter longboard and if mine broke I would buy again. Recommend.

Rode it for the first time and it runs very smooth! The bearings, the wheels, and pretty much every part of the board came in mint condition, even the t-wrench. The packaging itself was perfectly fine with no defects either!

After riding this board for about two weeks I highly recommend it! This is a really nice board for beginners as well as intermediates, the ride is smooth and fun. I let people whom never tried it before have a go, and they said it feels very stable, doesnt take much time to get used to and its lots of fun. Go get one for yourself, you wont regret it!
