Playshion Longboard Skateboard Cruiser | 39 Drop Through Long Board | 42 Pintail Longboards

Let’s make this clear from the start, I am in no way a long time boarder or skater. I am simply a Dad trying to keep up with his kids. I was never great at riding any kind of board, but after trying out my daughters long board I was hooked. I had to go out and find my own. This board does the job and more. I chose the drop through to give me a little more confidence since I am new to the game. I found the board very easy to ride. This board came with way better trucks, wheels, and bearings than my daughters that was at the same price point. The wheels are soft, but they roll very well over cracks and rocks. The board itself does have some flex, but has kept by confidence even at 200 lbs. The board has given me enough confidence that I have been pushing my ability to try out some moderate hills. Because the wheels are soft, I don’t recommend wheel braking with shoes. The wheels do wear pretty quickly if you do this. I have purchased a speed brake that has made this board even more fun. I use a FrogStop braking system that works great. The wheels seem to hold up great with this system. Overall, this board is great for this price. I plan on purchasing another model for my son. Some reviewers mention some quality issues with the grip tape and defects. My board had no defects or blemishes on arrival. The grip tape has held up fine. I have the strip grapics with a bare wood center strip.

Would 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

Shipping was pretty quick. It was good to skate straight out of the box, however the trucks required some adjustment. the wheels did not glide very well, and one of them made a rattling sound. applying some lube helped, but i am probably going to replace the bearing anyways. deck quality seems good. it comes with some stickers and a skate tool. some of the stickers were cool, put them on the board. the skate tool is not poorly made and works fine. rate 7/10

It was over all cool and I liked it but it doesn’t go there’s something messed up about them it sinks when you stand on it two.

I haven’t go on a skateboard for a long time and decided to adventure myself again, but this time with a longboard. I decided to buy this one because was easier to receive at home and the reviews regarding being good for beginners were good. Well, one month later: I LOVE this longboard. Couldn’t be happier. I’m riding everyday for around an hour and it has been great - it’s definitely good and easy for beginners because of its shape closer to the ground, brings a lot of stability. I improved a lot in a month. Wheels and bearings: also nothing to complain so far. Overall: Great choice!

Third board Ive had. Has the perfect combo of movement with stability. And it looks great!

Let me just say, I really love this board. I am fairly new to longboarding. The trucks and wheels aren’t terrible and I felt were adequate for the price. I am learning to longboard with my 8 year old daughter and I rode this about 9 miles (in one day I have rode it several times after that) out of the box, no upgrades. I have since purchased new trucks, wheels, and barrings. Just for my preference. I’m not sure if I would have gotten out cheaper if I would have purchased from a board shop but I’m not complaining. I didn’t want to invest a lot upfront if I ended up not liking it or not being able to longboard. This is a great board for beginners and with a few upgrades it’s a fantastic board, but what comes with it works fine. Not to mention the price is really amazing. So if you’re a newbie and considering a board I highly recommend it!

This is a very fun board to own and ride. I am an inexperienced rider but the learning curve on this board is pretty easy. My professional skateboarder boyfriend (not so professional anymore) is impressed by its grip tape and overall quality. I am pleased to say it has made exploring towns a lot more fun and also getting my vestibular input in. At first, it was pretty stiff but overall, itll loosen up over time. This will bring forward the ease of turns and acceleration. I personally prefer the drop through trucks because of the stability it gives me. To highlight, Im very clumsy and not the fastest reactor so this board meets my needs :).

I used to bail on every tiny little slope or when the board gets too fast. I am now able to clear 2 of the main downslopes in my park! The feeling of curving along the path whilst listening to Mofak: Superb. The first few sessions do be kinda tough on the left ankle tho, probably just cuz I was kicking too hard. Otherwise, MangoBoarding after a long day was exactly what I needed. Maintenance and Build: I clean the board after every use as I do get into sandy areas along the paths. While its relatively easy to just flush the mud off the axles and wheels, the grip tape does seem reluctant to let go of mud caked onto it. The deck is probably made of some indestructible wood. Ive had the board ram into a lamppost and a concrete pillar without receiving a hint of scratch, splinter or dent. It even took a bit off from the concrete pillar itself!

I just got this board and am fairly new at longboarding but hooked. This is my second board. My first one was a Retrospect pintail, which I liked, but then I got this board and it was a total game changer. I was falling on my ass everyday and starting to think I just didnt have it in me until I got this board. This thing carves like crazy! I can make really tight turns and the drop-through trucks make me feel closer to the earth and safer. Theres a decent amount of flex, which I personally like, it feels more stable and less rigid than my pintail. Ive actually started picking up some boardwalking tricks which Id never been able to do on the other board. This is like plug and play fun if youre a beginning longboarder.
