VOLADOR Freeride Longboard Cruiser | Maple Wood Deck| Drop Through Longboard Complete

Having said that this is a great intro board, The bearings are absolute trash. Pick up some bones reds or super reds to make your pushing life a hell of a lot easier. Other than the bearings, high quality and a ton of fun to ride!

Pros: - Board looks good. - Works fine. Cons: - The packaging was terrible. The box came severely damaged. The packaging wasnt great either. However, the longboard itself was not hurt and thus I wont rate deduct more than 1 star for that. - Bearings arent very good. I strongly recommend switching them out. If youre new to it, dont worry its super easy just look up a YouTube tutorial. Youll need to buy some bearings and a tool to unscrew the wheels. I personally used: * https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075HVWRGM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 * Then used these bearings: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XXK6FPQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 * Also, its worth noting that when taking off the wheels you will see two very thin washers or something (not sure what theyre called). One on each side of the wheel. Be sure the smooth side is against the wheel otherwise the wheel wont spin as fast & easily.

Ive been riding this longboard nearly every day for a couple months. Im in my early 30s and this is the first longboard Ive had, and it was a good choice. The price is great, the board looks and feel good too. I absolutely love the fish design in the grip tape. I can carve on the streets and Ive been using this to commute a mile or so into downtown Boise. I generally take the sidewalks, but I also will ride on the streets when its smooth. I have to say long boarding is quite fun (and a good workout!). Ive been using this board as training until I get an electric Boosted Board, but its so much fun Ill probably keep it even when I dont have to push anymore. The only bad thing Ive noticed about the board is I think maybe the bearings are a little slow? I had some fellow long boarders pass me the other day. Makes me wonder if I should upgrade to some ceramic bearings. Other then that I really enjoy it.

First time skating, so I really cannot compare this to any other board, but as a product in general its not a bad buy for $70 (The price has changed daily since I had bought it). I actually received two of these boards, because the first one was unfase to ride as one of the wheels would not stay on. Normally this would be an easy fix, as I should be able to just tighten the nut that keeps the wheel in place, however there was some problem with the wheel or the truck that would not allow the nut to be secured. They sent me a replacement board after a day or two of negotiation. It must be noted that both packages were in pretty bad shape, with the second package looking as if it had been opened mid transit. The product itself is simple, and the design is great. It comes covered in a plastic bag, and has plastic wrap around the deck. The problem with this, is the wrap is difficult to remove around the trucks, as it was put on the deck before the trucks were fastened. It came pretty loose, but a couple turns with a skate tool fixed that, as the trucks had standard sized nuts. Great product, alright company.

This is a great board. some of the hardware was loose but a quick tighten down and it was ready to ride. The graphics are really nice, the grip tape looks fantastic. Id add pictures but it is EXACTLY as pictured. This is superb and I would definitely buy this again.

I ordered the board after seeing a few videos on YouTube featuring electric skateboards for fun and transportation. I was extremely interested, but hadnt skated since I was a teenager, I had no idea if I could even do it, or if I would even like it once I did. (This was when the boards were closer to $60 than $120). I loved the thing. Its been great fun, a fantastic way to get around. I wouldnt recommend the board to experienced skaters, but to find out if you can do it, or like it, you can find out without breaking the bank. And since all the components are typical, i can replace them one-at-a-time as I wear them out or outgrow their quality. I added massive wheels (95-110mm) for extra stability, and had to cut notches in the deck to accommodate them, but its been pretty great. I mistook the trucks for plastic at first but when I scratched one, I did notice that they are a powder coated metal. Picture evidence attached. I wouldnt buy another one, Ive grown past it, BUT for a first board, not sure I would stick with the activity, it was perfect, and Id recommend it for that purpose all day long

I wanted a longboard for vacation and this turned out great. Im very happy with my purchase

DISCLAIMER: This was my first time getting a longboard, so I didnt know if certain specs that I found about this particular longboard were the same or at least similar to other longboards. Now to the review. Right off the bat, shipping was great. They got the longboard to me in a very short time. It was properly and carefully packaged and there was lots of padding inside to keep the board safe. Once I took the board out, I must say I was pretty impressed. I almost expected a flimsy, cheap board, to match the extremely low cost. However, the board felt pretty good in my hands. It wasnt too heavy or too light. It felt like it could last a long time with careful use. One thing I also noticed is that the wheels were a little harder than other longboard wheels that Ive seen and felt. (This may be an issue for the more hardcore longboard riders that do crazy high-speed slides and stuff) Once I started riding the board it felt very smooth and I fell in love with it immediately. The only cons (kind of) that I found are the boards wheels being a little harder than most longboards and also the fact that the board felt a little bouncy. Other than that, I am completely satisfied with the board. If youre like me, and youre only getting a longboard to have fun cruising at the park, commute to school/work, and get girls, this is definitely the board for you. If youre one of those people that likes to go down steep hills at 70 mph, doing slides and other crazy stuff, then the few cons I mentioned above may have a detrimental effect to your riding experience. I gave 5/5 stars because this board is perfect for what I want to do on a board.

I bought this in May of 2022 because I wanted to start riding and I love it, as a bigger person if really holds up to the weight rating and the only issues I have had is a small split in the end of the board which I fixed with wood glue and sanded down, and the trucks would loosen from the board so I had to tighten them more. Other than that it is amazing!

This board is amazing, very durable and incredible quality for what you paid, very pleased with this purchase.
