> 3 dayThis is my first longboard. I was looking for a stable board for cruising and carving around my neighborhood streets and trails and this board is perfect. Not having a kick tail took some getting used to but I knew that going in. The drop is low so its very stable on downhills and with some speed, make sure you adjust your trucks accordingly. I have not tried big hills or anything above 20 mph yet, my trails and roads are smooth so the wheels are fine as long as you keep your speed, i noticed at slower speeds the wheels catching on pebbles that my 65mm Sector 9 Nine ball wheels i have on my Madrid Cruiser rolls over no problem. If you want to slide easily, youll want to change the wheels. The Area 51 wheels are for more grip than sliding with their sharper less beveled edges. I did upgrade the bearings to Reds and the wheels rolled significantly faster and made for more efficient cruising. Im 510 185 and the deck feels solid and plenty stiff if you are looking for a sliding board. The money saved on this set up, with a truck and wheel upgrade you would have an awesome sliding board. At some point, I plan to get to Caliber trucks and Orangatang Stimulus wheels but for now Im Really happy with my Dark Tiki board!!

Greater than one weekI really enjoy my Longboard that I purchased from Amazon. The quality of the board is the same as when I opened it fresh. I always ride my board around on campus. Thank you Amazon!

> 3 dayMy boys have enjoyed cruising this longboard and it seems well made. My only complaint is that about a month after getting it the grip tape started to come up at the bends in the front and back. We live in Wyoming, not sure if the dry climate has anything to do with it. Still a great board, just need to buy more grip tape.

> 3 dayMine came in black instead of the brown shown and I think I like it better. Nice ride, sturdy/flexible and handles well. Wheels are grippy and ready to ride out of the box. No issues as of yet, would definitely buy again. I only cruise and ride to the train station. Good drop on the board and the dips let you know where u are. Get complements all the time. Wouldnt mind getting the brown one also.

> 3 dayThis longboard is a great board the wood is solid and the wheels are grippy and ride over everything. One thing that should be pointed out is that you should loosen the nuts on the wheels when you get it in the mail. Also I would either clean and re-lubricate the bearings or buy new ones as the ones supplied with this one are not the best. I would buy either the bones reds or super reds. Overall this board is durable, easy to ride, and fun. The grip tape is very coarse

> 3 dayThe wheels are rated 78a and they roll for ever. I bought this board for my 9 year old so he could ride with his 15 year old brother and myself. This board turns easy so even a 65lb kid can maneuver it with ease. We switch off boards so i can say i like this board for myself at 185 lbs. We do some small downhill riding board and our skill handle speeds up to 25mph with out any problem.

Greater than one weekThis is my very first Atom longboard, arrived well packed, looks shiny, when I opened and remove plastic bags I realized that it has some paint issues at the bottom as you can see in picture 3. then I found some scratches as you can see in picture 4. This product looks good so far, Im gonna be testing this weekend, comes with some instructions on how to tight trucks. Im happy with this purchase I have to be honest the scratched side and paint issue makes a 4 stars for this products. as a customer I always expect new product, intact from every inch and quality of the product. Give you the opportunity to have an Atom longboard and please be careful when you receive lookng for some imperfections that could have.
