Really good for 40$
I’ve skated this board HARD for 3 weeks as a beginner skater. I bought this board to learn the kick flip and etc. It blows my mind that it came with a free tool for the trucks and wheels. Since then I’ve learned how to kick flip but along the way the board was thrashed by my attempts. I think I’ve skated this in the three weeks for about a solid 24 hours. It has taken the beating well and is a awesome deal. The trucks and wheels haven’t been affected much despite me riding it through some snow, ice, and salt. I’ve hit so many cracks in the sidewalks to my dismay, but the wheels and trucks are totally fine and aligned. I’m only a beginner but the picture of the board should tell you how quality the wood is. I think since I’m a new skater the tails have been worn down faster since I’ve accidentally tail slided on it falling over. I’m not sure what to think about the board itself. The trucks are a bit squeaky when moving my weight but loosening the trucks seemed to have helped a lot. I think it rolls okay although I can’t really reference any other boards besides a one from Walmart. I still think it’s good though. The board will still have trouble rolling over badly paved roads and sidewalks.

Best board for the buck
One if the best boards you can buy for the price. After a 20+ yr hiatus from skating, I bought this bad boy a few weeks ago and totally love the ride. Only complaint would be the bearings are really slow. Picked up some bones reds for about $15, threw them on in about 5 mins and the board now rides smoother than ever. Highly recommended!

Change the bearings and bushings and this is as good as a $200 board
I researched a new board for my 11-year old for a few weeks before pulling the trigger on this. Compared to those at the big box stores, this is TONS better. The kid across the street spent a similar amount of money from Academy but has an inferior board. We did change out the bearings and bushings, which made all the difference in the world.

Board cracked, then opened up after less than one week of use.
This longboard rode pretty smooth, but could not get a lot of distance out of a good push, it needs smoother bearings. Trucks came slightly too tight. My real problem came when i was trying to learn how to pump and carve. While already discouraged about not understanding the motion behind pumping, my board cracked open while learning, leaving me completely demoralized. i've only used this board less than a week before i split open. I wasn't hard on it, i didn't attempt any tricks, i only pushed and tried to pump on it, and it cracked this badly. This was not worth the $80 (after tax) that i paid for it, i do not recommend this board now, this was a total disappointment.

Need better packaging.
Product as stated. The only problem I had was with shipping the package was torn up & the product was hanging out of the box just luckily the product was not torn up.

Good board for beginner or intermediate users.
I bought this for my 8 year old's birthday in March 2018. It has held up to daily neighborhood use as well as skate park use (beginner). The woood chips a little bit easier than I expected and that is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. I do recommend this board for beginner to intermediate skateboard users.

Nice skateboard - quick delivery
Nice skateboard. My 11 year old son has never been on one. He rode this for a few hours yesterday and likes it a lot. Good quality.

Good quality at a affordable price
I purchased this for my 10 year old Daughter she absolutely loved it, great quality just as good as the extremely expensive ones I bought when I was younger

Good stuff
Needed a board to skate with my son. Been away from skating for 16ish years. Went out on a limb due to the good ratings. Was pleasantly surprised to get it shipped 2 days earlier then expected. The deck has descent grip tape on it, great curve on the tail and nose. However I thought the curve throughout the width was a bit much but ended up being surprising comfortable to ride. Descent aluminum trucks and ok bushings that will do me just fine. Just loosened them a tad. Great 95a wheels. I would recommend grabbing some better bearings as these were a bit noisy and slow, but good for a backup set. Put in some Kwik abec 7’s I had laying around and was a very smooth ride. So far lovin this ride. Watched a lot of Aaron Kyro videos on Amazon boards and I think he might even be pleasantly surprised with this one.

Fair price
As others have said, these bearings are really really really bad.That being said, it comes with a neat tool to replace em (as you definitely need to lol). I'm 250 pounds and use it to exercise my dog and it works well for that in small bursts til I get real bearings. I'd say it's a very solid price for what you get. Looking forward to getting new bearings next weekend.Update: New bearings installed today! They're amazing. Check out headyshake. Solid board so far. Someday when I can afford another I'll review how it handles a noob trying tricks :) (if you send me one now however I'll happily review asap ;))

Awesome
I was nervous about buying this as my sonHas never tried boarding. We were out today and he did so well. This board has not left his site since. He is 8 and grew so much today. Santa did a good job. Arrived in a day and the tool that it came with helped a ton. No regrets.

Great board for the price!
Bought this as a starter skate board for my 8 yo nephew. Haven't given it to him yet (it's for his birthday) but my hubby checked it out and was quite impressed with it.

Board is good
Board is good, support my weight (80kg) well, but the bearings definitely need to be replaced...probably that's why the toolkit is included... (btw, I found some washers (the thin piece between the bearing and screw nut) were missing when changing the bearings).
