> 24 hourIts truly a wonderful board! I was waiting to long to by a new board and wanted a board with little to no speed wobbles while bombing hills. I didnt experience any wobbles while bombing hills and the board rides so smooth in general. I will mention that my board needed to have all screws tightened to the trucks before I officially took it out for a ride. Great price for a great board!

> 24 hourThis longboard is super easy to ride! Maybe that is just the nature of longboards, but I am a true beginner and I found it very easy to push and turn the board. PROS: - Riding on rough asphalt is nice and smooth. You can still pick up speed pretty easily and the wheels absorb a lot of the shock from the road. - The grip on the deck is good and not too grabby. - The design of the board is top notch. - The bearings seem to be pretty good. CONS: - The trucks are really loose out of the box. I tightened them and they still have a lot of play in them. I’ll try tightening them all the way and see if that helps. - The kicks are relatively small. If you are new to longboards(like me), it will seem like you need a good amount of force to kick the board up. Definitely not as easy as a regular skateboard. All in all, this is a pretty good board for a beginner. You will automatically feel confident after hopping on the board for the first time and rolling without falling off the board. On a side note the deck has plenty of flex. I’m 215lbs and get a lot of flex from the deck. My daughter is about 75lbs and only gets a little flex from the board. But it is probably still enough flex to carve effectively. Final evaluation: The board is worth buying. You’ll be pleased.

> 24 hourI am 24 years old and decided that I wanted to try and longboard. It is something that I wanted to do as a kid but I wasn’t fortunate enough to have gotten one. I did some research and found this board to be the best for the price range. When the package arrived I noticed that the box the board came in was ripped and looked like it had been tossed around pretty hard. I opened that box and inside was the board wrapped in a plastic bag and nothing else. No paperwork of any sort, which I found strange but I didn’t think much of it. Finally I get to the board. I take it out of the plastic bag and I am just amazed at the quality and look of the board. This is my first board I have ridden but I can say that this is a very smooth riding board. One thing that I noticed was that all eight screws that hold the trucks were loose. I had to tighten them up. One thing I am going to upgrade is the bearings but the wheels, trucks, and boards itself are made of great quality.

> 24 hourIm in my mid 30s, 6 foot about 215lbs... this longboard is amazing. I love the look, nice and clean. Rides smooth and easy to learn if you have any kind of skating experience. Holds my weight no problem.

> 24 hourI am rather new at skateboarding and this board has been a great help in learners the ropes. In my first day of riding my board in the city, it survived getting run over by a big Ford Truck so for bamboo, it’s pretty durable. The stock wheels are fine but need to be loosened up a little out of the box so that you can have a decent roll. Overall I’m satisfied with the board and am looking forward to using it more and improving over time.

> 24 hourAs in almost every other review, the trucks, wheels, and bearings are not very good. The deck, however, is FANTASTIC. Its beautiful, its strong and flexible, and it just feels great. Im 62 and 210lbs and this board holds up very well. Ollies, manuals, downhill...it takes a beating and holds up. The wide board is very comfortable on my long ass feet and the board length provides plenty of space for a wider stance. Im very happy with this board and would definitely purchase another deck from Magneto.

> 24 hourExactly as promised. Great deck, trucks, wheels, and bearings. I wanted a cruiser board for riding the asphalt trail a few miles to downtown. Great for me.

> 24 hourRetiring an old handmedown Loaded drop through deck, and this is honestly so light and reactive to the riders directional control that, paired with Sidewinder trucks and good ceramic bearings, taking even some of the tightest turns becomes reasonable. Light as hell, feels like youre floating

> 24 hourI have had this board for almost half a year now and I have to say that it holds up really well with everything you throw at it! PROS Cruises very smoothly and requires less effort for a longer ride per push compared to other boards Ive rode. Stock turning capability is perfect for beginners and advanced riders. Easily take sharp turns and sliding. More professional riders would have to tune the board to their liking (which they should know how to do). The grip is no joke, no catastrophes or mistakes were made because of the grip. Could get tricky if the deck is very very wet though. CONS If you use it often there might be a inconvenience that may occur. After 5 months of moderate to heavy use I noticed a rattle coming from the wheels I think. I have yet to know if this is an easy fix or not because Im not sure how to tinker with boards quite yet. All in all, solid board for the price. It would be nearly perfect if the price was cut by 10 or 15 bucks, but still, a very good board to put on your list and compare to others.
