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

I really dont write reviews this is my first for any product I bought off of amazon. But for a board I never heard of, and I usually buy other major branded boards. This board actually is worth the money and at first I was a little skeptical because other board cost more money and their are good, I thought this board would be one of those cheap ones you buy from like Walmart and doesnt do much for riding. But this board is a very smooth ride, Ive been coasting with very few kick when Im gaining speed. I would recommend this board to anyone whom dont have money much to spare, its competes to other major brands. Im happy with it.

Dont bother looking at other boards for a beginner - choose this one, you wont regret it! Ill start by stating that I was never great at skateboarding as a kid, however, I began snowboarding around the age of 12, and quickly developed a passion for it and became moderately advanced at the sport. However, this was my first crack at longboarding. Living in Chicago, I was hoping to have a way to get around quicker in the spring/summer/fall. It only took me about 30 minutes to get used to the board, and another 30 to learn exactly where I liked my feet placement, how to properly push while riding, and make turns. This might have been the easiest new skill Ive ever picked up, and I largely attribute it to this board! The company is also fantastic, as the shipping is incredibly quick, and I had to option to work with one of their employees Mike on replacing a part of my board that I broke, and they provided superior customer service! Thanks guys!

Well....I did not hop on it myself....however ....the teen instantly approved (which does not happen all that often really)!! The graphics on the board are beautiful ...the wheels are great....it came on time and undamaged with the correct tool to adjust wheels!! OK....I did get on it....I just did not go anywhere.......felt really good to me.....!!!!!!!

This will be a strange review, I havent been on a board for a long time - a very long time. Recently my grand daughter had shown interest in learning to ride so I bought her a different brand board but as I was helping her learn the basics I realized that even after years of not riding and suffering some injuries I still enjoyed bing up on those wheels. The Fusion board arrived on time and right out of the box I was impressed with how smooth the ride is. Back in the day we had to spend a LOT of money to get a ride that wasnt this good. This board flexes perfectly allowing the turns to be responsive and easy. I might not be as limber as I used to be and I had to change my style because of some orthopedic surgeries but I smile when I see the looks on the faces of the young people when they see an old man surfing the streets with a smile. I really wish I had known the quality of this board when I bought my gran daughter her board because it would have been one of these!

Great board all around. Couldn’t buy something this good for this cheap 10 years ago. Also the tiger board did not come in the colors advertised. Mine was a combination of mostly blues instead of brown. Cool colors but still bummed me out

I 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!

The board feels good, looks good, and rides well. the wheels are very soft, which compensates for the relative stiffness of the deck. bearings feel decent, and the trucks, although made from aluminium, give the feeling of hardened plastic. Deck design is great, and if nothing else, the board is definitely visually satisfying. Packaging: The box arrived in an almost opened state (probably due to shipping), but luckily nothing was harmed inside. the front of the deck is protected with foam, but the back regrettably is not. The board is places in a zip-tied plastic bag, and to it was attached the skate tool, which is neat, but for some reason the key wont stay inside the tool so its not as convenient to carry around. Also comes with a bunch of cute stickers, if youre interested. Condition: Only two faults, the warning sticker underneath the board actually stripped off some of the design, and is excessively hard to remove. Also, the rear bushing makes a squeaking sound, which is strange for a brand new bushing. First ride: Incredibly fun, you can really appreciate the board. In my case Ive had a bit of downhill riding which wasnt ideal because the trucks came pretty loose, and I could feel speed wobbles right away. Make sure to adjust your truck tightness when riding for the first time.

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 will start off by saying I have never skate/longboarded. But I was super exited to get this board . Got it in two days with prime . First, this thing is built pretty well. I have already Sorens about 2 weeks with it and its going really strong with a lot of abuse. Based on how it looks it will last a really long time. I would suggest that u loosen the trucks to make carving and turning easier as out of the box its pretty stiff . The bearing are pretty good but I can sense that they are not eh best but definitely worth it . The wheels are great . If you are looking for a great board to start with I HIGHLY recommend it .

I 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).
