> 24 hourthis skateboard goes fast down hills, its not to jerky, and it is stable! just the way I like. For beginners i would say get something smoother and not as fast, for indeterminate or advanced i would recommend getting g this! :)

> 24 hourI decided to take up longboarding, and knew Id need a basic, beginners board to bang up and scratch as I learned. This board was everything I needed to learn on. Its stable and responsive. I tightened the bushings in the beginning for even more stability, and loosened them over time. The grip tape is definitely grippy, even when it gets wet or dirty. Even better, this board comes with a skate tool! Keep in mind though, youre getting what youre paying for. Two of my wheels dont spin quite as well as the others, and after getting Bones Reds bearings to replace the ABEC-9 bearings it came with, it seemed the problem was more with the trucks. Also, after riding for a few days outside, I discovered the front truck had bent upward already, making the front wheel hover a tiny bit off the ground--not the most durable. Still, the board handles well, and I have no other complaints! Overall: Great for beginners, inexpensive, free skate tool. Bang up a cheap board until you learn the basics, then graduate to a better board!

> 24 hourI havent longboarded in a few years, but Ive wanted to get back into it and spent some time researching my options. This board was consistently well-reviewed so I decided to try it out. The size is perfect for me (Im 53) and it rides really nicely. If youre looking for a solid longboard for a decent price, look no further!

> 24 hourI expected the board to be cheap because of the Bruce but I saw reviews and I started to like it more. I bought this for my girlfriend and she loves it.I loved it too! I have been wanting her to try and skate for awhile and this board is beautiful for beginners. The bearings dont run and it to fast as my board but its great for her because its more of a beginner board. It is also really easy to just get new wheels and bearings when you want to start cruzing longer distances. I think the best part of this board is that it looks exact the same as of online and came already prepared. The only reason I give this a 4/5 is because it was slightly dented and chipped right from the box and in my mind I was thinking i bought what I played for lol but it rides so smoothly and its a beautiful design I would definitely recommend it!

> 24 hourBoard is to stiff and a bit curved. My other playtion board is more flat and loose. I cannot get use to riding this for that reason. Plus I fell and was to nervous to ride again. Hard to turn as well. I need to see if I can return.

> 24 hourThis longboard is incredibly smooth, when it arrived me and my friend went out and tested it. Very windy day so it didnt expect to stay out much, but the wind literally made me go faster than him, and he was on an electric board. I was flying and its very easy to turn with. I havent even adjusted the wheels or the trucks. 10/10 incredibly smooth riding and you fly when theres wind.

> 24 hourI was looking for a casual commuting/riding board that wasnt too big, but wasnt small either. This board is good for someone my size (6 ft 200 lbs), but probably more comfortable for people slightly smaller than me. It has a really comfortable ride. The drop through allows for easing kick pushing, and the flex gives good response and balance, perfect for leisurely skating around. The kicktail isnt as useful as it looks. I changed out the bushings and the bearings for a smoother turn and longer roll time, as the stock ones werent great.

> 24 hourI just got this board today, and it seems fine. Im taking a star off because the packaging was inadequate and beat up. There was one piece of wadded up paper in the box to act as padding. The board didnt break, but does have a scratch on the paint. Im not going to return it because it will be covered in stickers soon. Just be aware about the packaging risks because theres a chance youll get a broken board in the mail. With the complaint about the packaging out of the way, lets talk about what you get for your money. You get a 39 inch long deck, which is close to the typical 40 or 41 inch drop through deck. I think this length is fine, its not worth the extra 20 bucks to buy a board with a 41 inch deck. The deck is made of maple, and is fairly stiff. Im 160 lbs and can get it to flex when I jump up and down on it, but only a little. Its 8-ply maple, so definitely on the stiffer side. You get 70mm wheels that are 78 durometer- they feel about right in terms of softness. The bearings dont spin great, but they get the job done. You cant get Bones Red bearings on a board of this price. The trucks are 7 wide, fairly standard fare. The bushings seem adequate. No complaints about the trucks or the bushings. The grip tape is grippy. The artwork and branding are a bit cheesy. The white Playshion branding on the grip tape can be fixed with black marker and the bottom can be covered in stickers, so Im not real concerned about the branding. Overall, you get a decent board that will let you try out longboarding without breaking the bank. This is probably the second best/cheapest option to borrowing one from a friend (in my case, none of my friends have a skateboard).

> 24 hourWould 100% recommend this board. I spent quite a lot of time researching and reading reviews to find this one. Im a beginner and didnt want to spend too much money if I ended up being terrible at it or something. Its sooo worth the money. Once you open your package you can ride it right away. May just need to loosen the trucks a little bit. It also came with a tool which is super awesome- not sure if every style does though so just be careful of that. All around awesome longboard and I really could not be happier with this purchase, I would totally buy another one of these babys
