(More customer reviews)First I want to mention that this is my first longboard. I only briefly stepped on a friends longboard before getting this one, so I can't comment on how it compares to others. But I can say that I am very happy with this item! The board is decent and has nice griptape. The board isn't just a cheap piece of wood like some others I had seen. The edges are all rounded and the spot by the wheels has a small indent for your turns. The shape of the board is good looking and the graphic is of good quality. The graphic features a stylized wave and there is a surfer on top. Not to my taste but the image is decent. The trucks are usable for a beginner I think although they seem generic and I wonder about their longevity. They are metal though and I haven't had any problems with them falling apart etc. I was surprised to find that the wheels are much better then I expected! The inner part is a hard plastic and then the outer covering is a slightly softer rubber material that has some give. Riding the board is awesome and much more fun then I anticipated! It performs a little different than a traditional size skateboard. The turning is smoother and the ride in particular is awesome. Very smooth and stable feeling. You can roll over rocks and twigs and gravel etc much easier without as much worry about falling down like on a smaller board. Also this model features a kicktail so you can pop on ollie if you want. Performing an ollie felt a little weird to me at first due to the board size/weight. The bearings are mediocre but this is an easy fix at your local shop and the ones on the board will get you rolling until you can upgrade. Also I personally will upgrade the trucks at some point. Otherwise great product. The shipping for me was amazing I had this at my house in two days!!! I suppose your ship time may vary depending on where you live.... I'm glad I ordered this board it has been a lot of fun. I may never ride a regular board again....
