Greater than one weekIve used this to ride around with my friends Im 17 and weigh approximately 170 pounds. The bearings arent the best but thats a given for a lot of newly bought boards especially since its not yet broke in. Lube them up nice and itll make a difference but Id recommend buying some reds bearings. Great grip tape and style also turns really well and amazimg balance.

> 3 dayThis is an amazing skateboard for the money-- and even if it cost more, it would be worth it!!! The board is nice the wheels are smooth, and the ride is awesome!!! Really happy with my purchase, and I own some Landyachtz which are significantly more money. This is a cool board, and I would totally recommend it.

Greater than one weekGreat board! One bearing came damaged but it didnt matter as I was replacing all the bearings with Redz bearings (highly recommended). The board gains decent speed when going downhill. Its very light for its size and form and is very easy to balance on. I do suggest loosening the trucks if you are more experienced with longboarding as the trucks are a little tight, however for a beginner a stiffer truck will be more helpful to gain knowledge on how to balance. Grip tape is also not as strong as I had expected it to be, I will be replacing it soon.

> 3 dayI got this long board for my 13 year old grandsons birthday. He loved it and I would buy it again. Unfortunately the very next day after I gave it to him he was using it crossing a street and was hit by a pickup truck and dragged. The longboard was ruined and broke but my grandson is doing ok. Had some bad scrapes and concussion. He was lucky. But he loved the longboard but only got to enjoy it one day.

> 3 dayLove this longboard. As someone who uses it as my main transportation as everything I need is close by, it is great. Street riding is awesome, smooth. Once you get the trucks tightened to your liking, it carves amazingly. Bombing hills? Yeah, its awesome for that too. The drop-through style helps a lot with balance while bombing. Wonderful board, 11/10 would buy again if mine breaks.

> 3 dayThis is the first longboard Ive owned, but not the first skateboard. And i can say even with a few years rust I was more than capable of just getting on and riding (that was after i adjusted the trucks).

> 3 dayI love this board! Amazing quality for the price. Great turning radius (al long as you loosen the trucks enough) and wheel bite is virtually impossible! The wheels are a tad soft, meaning sliding isnt the best as it would tear up the wheels (you could always put harder wheels on). But that also means the wheels are great for cruising as they roll right over bumps and cracks very easily. The ABEC-9 bearings are very good and will allow the board to roll about 20-30 feet per kick on flat landscape. The only cons: The trucks squeak a tad on wood and carpet, but on concrete or asphalt you cant hear it. The bottom colors are also deceiving, the brown and the green are darker and more subtle then in the picture. Overall, amazing board for the price. You can buy reds bearings but I dont think it would make much of a difference. Just a tip for wheel tightness: Tighten wheels all of the way then un tighten 1/4th of a turn for best performance. Also, beware of going off curbs, as if you allow the bottom to scrape the curb it will scratch off some paint.

> 3 dayI love it! I’ve been searching for a decent board for over two weeks! I originally didn’t want to buy it because it was alittle expensive, but it went on sale and I bought it in a heartbeat! It’s a beautiful 9 ply board, with Area 51 70mm wheels. The trucks needed a little bit of tightening but that’s mostly just preference. I’ve never longboarded before and did a lot of research on many boards before deciding on this one. It’s the perfect balance of quality for your money.

> 3 daySuper stable! Immediately upgraded the bearings because I had some reds laying around, the wheels feel fine for cruising around, and the trucks seem to be holding up after a month of pretty much daily use!
