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

The board feels good, looks good, and rides well. the wheels are very soft, which compensates for the relative stiffness of the deck. bearings feel decent, and the trucks, although made from aluminium, give the feeling of hardened plastic. Deck design is great, and if nothing else, the board is definitely visually satisfying. Packaging: The box arrived in an almost opened state (probably due to shipping), but luckily nothing was harmed inside. the front of the deck is protected with foam, but the back regrettably is not. The board is places in a zip-tied plastic bag, and to it was attached the skate tool, which is neat, but for some reason the key wont stay inside the tool so its not as convenient to carry around. Also comes with a bunch of cute stickers, if youre interested. Condition: Only two faults, the warning sticker underneath the board actually stripped off some of the design, and is excessively hard to remove. Also, the rear bushing makes a squeaking sound, which is strange for a brand new bushing. First ride: Incredibly fun, you can really appreciate the board. In my case Ive had a bit of downhill riding which wasnt ideal because the trucks came pretty loose, and I could feel speed wobbles right away. Make sure to adjust your truck tightness when riding for the first time.

I haven’t go on a skateboard for a long time and decided to adventure myself again, but this time with a longboard. I decided to buy this one because was easier to receive at home and the reviews regarding being good for beginners were good. Well, one month later: I LOVE this longboard. Couldn’t be happier. I’m riding everyday for around an hour and it has been great - it’s definitely good and easy for beginners because of its shape closer to the ground, brings a lot of stability. I improved a lot in a month. Wheels and bearings: also nothing to complain so far. Overall: Great choice!

My first board and it was honestly a perfect board to learn. Balance is great, wheels are durable. I use this board to commute in a flat urban setting, and it flies through many types of urban terrain. 5/5 Highly recommend!

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

Love this board. Im a 28 year old female who has never skateboarded in her life but always wanted to. My boyfriend skateboards on occasion and I wanted to be able to tag along on a board instead of always using my bike. In comes this lovely little long board. It was perfect for me to learn on. The bearings are smooth but not too fast, the board has just the slightest bit of flex to it, and the trucks have plenty of mobility for turning this stretched out bad boy around corners. Wheels are an appropriate fit for the board. I would highly recommend this board for a beginner, I dont know how a seasoned skateboarder would feel, I know my boyfriend recommends changing the bearings for faster and longer coasts once Im comfortable enough.

Would 100% recommend this board. I spent quite a lot of time researching and reading reviews to find this one. Im a beginner and didnt want to spend too much money if I ended up being terrible at it or something. Its sooo worth the money. Once you open your package you can ride it right away. May just need to loosen the trucks a little bit. It also came with a tool which is super awesome- not sure if every style does though so just be careful of that. All around awesome longboard and I really could not be happier with this purchase, I would totally buy another one of these babys

I’ve actually bought this board three times now. My son first got it when he was 11 and a beginner. I bought it again after it was ran over by a car (no fault of the board or my son) when my son was 12, and recently bought it for a 3rd time after my son’s friend fell and the board went down the storm drain in the street. My son is now 14 and rides it around the neighborhood for miles!

I just got this board today, and it seems fine. Im taking a star off because the packaging was inadequate and beat up. There was one piece of wadded up paper in the box to act as padding. The board didnt break, but does have a scratch on the paint. Im not going to return it because it will be covered in stickers soon. Just be aware about the packaging risks because theres a chance youll get a broken board in the mail. With the complaint about the packaging out of the way, lets talk about what you get for your money. You get a 39 inch long deck, which is close to the typical 40 or 41 inch drop through deck. I think this length is fine, its not worth the extra 20 bucks to buy a board with a 41 inch deck. The deck is made of maple, and is fairly stiff. Im 160 lbs and can get it to flex when I jump up and down on it, but only a little. Its 8-ply maple, so definitely on the stiffer side. You get 70mm wheels that are 78 durometer- they feel about right in terms of softness. The bearings dont spin great, but they get the job done. You cant get Bones Red bearings on a board of this price. The trucks are 7 wide, fairly standard fare. The bushings seem adequate. No complaints about the trucks or the bushings. The grip tape is grippy. The artwork and branding are a bit cheesy. The white Playshion branding on the grip tape can be fixed with black marker and the bottom can be covered in stickers, so Im not real concerned about the branding. Overall, you get a decent board that will let you try out longboarding without breaking the bank. This is probably the second best/cheapest option to borrowing one from a friend (in my case, none of my friends have a skateboard).

Great board all around. Couldn’t buy something this good for this cheap 10 years ago. Also the tiger board did not come in the colors advertised. Mine was a combination of mostly blues instead of brown. Cool colors but still bummed me out

The board is a bit smaller than I expected but it’s perfect carrying size and riding size, the grip is amazing and I love the design. Only complaint would be how slow it can be, but I’m sure once i mess around with it I can find a way to make it faster, but I will say i like it a lot
