VOLADOR Freeride Longboard Cruiser | Maple Wood Deck| Drop Through Longboard Complete

Came with some cracks in the board, trucks and wheels should be changed when getting for a better ride but the deck is solid and great for anyone who is just starting out!

I would love to give this beautiful board 5 stars but it arrived with damaged grip tape fresh out of the packaging. Small but definitely noticeable and kind of a bummer for my first board. It otherwise rides beautifully and I’m super excited to start my longboarding journey.

This is my first time riding a longboard. Like others have said, the board has plenty of flex but I grew up on a fiberglass board decades ago, so this doesnt bother me. It actually helps to absorb bumps and provide stability in my opinion, like a shock absorber. Im 62 and about 210 and reasonably athletic for a well-seasoned dude and Im quickly becoming comfortable on this deck. Other reviews have noted the tight plastic wrapping upon delivery, but mine arrived in a large clear bag. My belief is that it was previously returned, but there was no wear to indicate prior usage. The nuts on all the wheels and the kingpins were relatively loose and required tightening/adjusting. So Im tooling around, trying to rekindle that muscle memory when I hear an awful grinding sound. Back in the day I recall catching a pebble every now and then and I had assumed this is what happened, but when I looked down I see a missing wheel. As the nut was still attached to the truck, and the nylon ball holders and one of the bearing caps was still hanging on the truck as well, I can only assume I was the victim of a seized bearing. All told, for the price, Im very satisfied. Just check or replace your bearings for a better experience.

Im absolutely in love with this board! I was a little skeptical at first because of the cheap price and those few reviews the warn you not to be fooled by the positive reviews, but I took a chance and bought it anyway. Ive seen some reviews about how this board breaks during trick attempts, but that doesnt affect me because I just like to cruise around anyway. Ive only had it 3 days and have ridden about 5 miles so far, and it seems to be holding up just fine. I originally bought a Kryptonics board because of the price, but I soon realized that was a mistake because the ride was too stiff and when i loosened the trucks it just made the whole ride feel unsafe. Thats not a problem with this board, I rode it straight out of the box and havent looked back since. If youre debating on which board to buy then stop debating and buy this one. You wont regret it.

it arrived on time, my husband loves it!!! it’s safe to ride and cool design. so i presume it’s a great skateboard (i’m not a skater myself hahaha)

when it first arrived and i opened it for the first time i thought oh no this may have been too big and maybe it wouldve been better if i have gotten the penny nickel 27 inch board or a regular skateboard 31 inch and that i should just return it. so i tried to just hop on it inside my house and gave it a shot, boy was i wrong. this board was freaking awesome!!! i dont know if it was because this is my first time riding a skateboard in general and the adrenaline just kicked in but what i can definitely say about this board it is definitely smooth and comfortable. there was and is no way i can return it as i grown to love it within the past 2 hours (haha) this is definitely a great board ^_______^ i bought this board along with a 21 inch board for my friend as me and her plan on skating for the first time this winter break :)

I was not given a discount or a free board for this review. Im new to long boarding and have never really rode except for a Ripstick, but who counts that? The board is flexible but not to the point that it will snap like the other board have. In my opinion it will only snap if youre messing around or pushing its limits. All around though I love it and recommend it to anyone that is also new to long boarding. Ps the bearings are really nice for their price. UPDATE: I had been riding my friends board and felt so good about the board I wrote a review after I ordered my board. Ive changed the review because I ordered mine but it came in blue when I clearly ordered green. Two colors hard to mix up. I was super excited when I got it but as soon as I saw the blue almost all the hype went away. But other than that awesome board. Last the grip tape is not mirrored and so I have to flip the board to show the other side. My friends grip tape and back decal do line up how they should. Ps I dont plan on returning it because I love the board that much.

A beauty of a board for a great price. The Volador showed up quickly, boxed in cardboard with some paper padding. Unlike some other reviewers that complained of shrink wrap embedded in the trucks, mine had no such issues. Thanks for listening to reviewers! The packaging method still allowed for it to shift in the box and there was a slight paint crack on one side, presumably from shipping. No big deal in this instance, since I’m not too concerned about it staying pristine. It is meant to be used, after all, but others might not be so lucky with transportation handling. Add a little foam on each end and it’ll go a long way to protecting during shipping. I’m new to long boarding, and only had a little experience as a kid with on a 1990s skateboard. This is a vast improvement. It was easy to balance and carve. I’m 160Ib and it handled my weight just fine. My 85Ib kid had a harder time steering. The board feels good and the trucks seem sturdy. After a couple rides the bushings really loosened up/broke in, so I had to tighten them up. No sign that the nuts or bolts are loosening, though. The bearings are ok. A couple of the bearings are making some noise after an hour of riding, which indicates they might not last all too long. Spacers are sized appropriately. Wheels are plenty soft for asphalt roads and cracks. Overall I’m definitely satisfied with the product. It’s getting me and my boys out of the house and around the neighborhood.

So, after several month of using this board, I have to say the previous model of this board was much better than this one, for many reasons. Of course, this current board (at least the new designs) is a new build for the board. It feels very stiff before breaking everything in, but after a while of using it everything becomes a lot looser and smoother basically. I would recommend switching out the bearings after about 2 months of use just because theyre not the best but they get the job done for whatever youre doing. The board itself is concave which is nice because it allows for easy maneuvering of your feet and allow everything to feel a lot smoother, at least in my experience. The one thing I dont like about this is how stiff it feels. Its not as flexible as before, and even if there was no flex before it felt like there was. I dont know how to explain it, but its just a different feel. Also, i noticed on my specific board some of the screws on the plates holding the trucks through the drop-through hole were coming loose, so you might wanna watch those screws to make sure nothing comes out and messes stuff up. Overall, this board is amazing for anyone who is looking at a cheap-end board that works for just about anything. The build is amazing and feels high quality, and doesnt seem to make any expenses right off the bat. Great board for the price, and will last long considering I had to buy a new one cause the one that I bought a year ago was super worn from use. In any case, I would recommend this board 100%

I absolutely love this product. I’ll definitely purchase from this brand again. This was my first longboard, and I’m learning how to skate with a group of people. Those helping me learn, jokingly take my board and use it due to how smoothly it rides. It’s easy to pick up speed, and the wheels are good quality too. 10/10 would recommend
