> 3 dayI tried to buy a longboard that was similar to the one I previously had and this one was perfect! It turns nicely and feels very smooth and strong. I highly recommend it for someone who’s an experienced beginner or a little intermediate. I don’t think it’s great for a newbie though.

> 3 dayIve been riding this board everywhere I can since I got it. Its a fantastic board at a great price, and I couldnt be happier. To go point by point: - The grip tape is very grippy. Your feet are not moving once theyre planted. If you dont want it so corse its easy to sand down, but I like it as-is. - The deck is fairly stiff. This means you will feel the road, for better and worse. Its not the smoothest ride, but it feels more solid for being stiff. The deck is nice and concave, which together with the grip tape makes for your feet being well connected to the board. The deck is symmetrical with a kick tail at either end. Trucks - not too much to say here, theyre pretty standard steel trucks. They came fairly loose, but thats easy to adjust if you prefer them tighter. Bearings - the bearings are fantastic. They roll on par with Bones Reds. There is virtually no resistance once theyre broken in. Wheels - the wheels are mid sized and medium hardness for longboard wheels. They arent the best choice if you just want to cruise, but they work acceptably for cruising and sliding so its a happy medium. If youve ever wanted to try longboarding, this board is a fantastic option.

> 3 dayThe longboard is good but is abit unbalance when I put it in a flat floor one of the wheels is higher then the rest. Not sure if it is the board or something else but it does ride smoothly.

Greater than one weekI left 5 stars because the product is great. However, Amazons ability to properly package products has drastically gone downhill. The board was in a large box, face down with one sheet of packing paper on top of it. Front edge of board was scraped up due to improper packaging.

> 3 dayIve had this board for about a month now, and Ive got to say I have no problems with it. Im new to longboarding, so I hear that replacing the bearings should happen on this board, but Ive been using the default ones, and they work really well. I dont have any reason for me to upgrade them myself because I feel I go fast enough, and any difference I can make with the bearings would be a small improvement. I probably will, but since Im new, Im a-okay with the default ones. Also I was concerned with which board would be able to support me. Im a heavy guy weighing from around 240-250. The weight limit from the manufacturer is 250, and I can confirm that this seems to be the case. I never feel like Im going to break the board. Given that, there is a small amount of flex. This was another thing I was initially converned with when purchasing, but the flex isnt a whole lot. It seems to flex for people of all weights, but not that it flexes on me any more than someone who weighs around 150. I really like the flex so that way it absorbs some of the shock from going over cracks or some pebbles or rough ground. The durability is something that is incredible. As someone who is right at the weight limit, I would expect for a board priced at $60 to have some problems show up, but I can confirm, the ride is just as good as the first day I got it. I ride pretty often, and Ive ridden twice on this route that is 10.5 miles. (I would say Ive ridden somewhere in the ball park of 30-45 miles on my board). Everything is great! One thing however, the wheels are pretty hard, so you should watch out for pebbles while riding. Also because of my extensive riding, my white wheels arent white anymore. Its all good, I might be able to restore its initial color after some time of scrubbing. Also the design is really awesome! Koi fish on the top, and the solar system on the bottom! Couldnt get it better than that! I highly recommend this board especially if youre a beginner like me.

> 3 dayI’ve never longboarded in my life and I picked it up so easily with the stability of this board. I know some boards slip very easily and flex a lot but this board had the perfect balance to help me learn quickly and safely. The wheels move so smoothly and I barely feel the bumps on the sidewalk/road I ride on. 100% recommend for beginners or pros. All over an amazing board.

> 3 dayI ordered the board after seeing a few videos on YouTube featuring electric skateboards for fun and transportation. I was extremely interested, but hadnt skated since I was a teenager, I had no idea if I could even do it, or if I would even like it once I did. (This was when the boards were closer to $60 than $120). I loved the thing. Its been great fun, a fantastic way to get around. I wouldnt recommend the board to experienced skaters, but to find out if you can do it, or like it, you can find out without breaking the bank. And since all the components are typical, i can replace them one-at-a-time as I wear them out or outgrow their quality. I added massive wheels (95-110mm) for extra stability, and had to cut notches in the deck to accommodate them, but its been pretty great. I mistook the trucks for plastic at first but when I scratched one, I did notice that they are a powder coated metal. Picture evidence attached. I wouldnt buy another one, Ive grown past it, BUT for a first board, not sure I would stick with the activity, it was perfect, and Id recommend it for that purpose all day long

> 3 daywhen 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 :)
