Review on 🌈 Merkapa Complete Skateboard: Vibrantly Colorful for Beginner Skaters by Tyrone Lee

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Pretty good on skates, skateboards and scooters

Got two of these for my sons for Christmas after a year of begging for their first skateboard. I found a review site recommending these boards for beginners and thought I hit the jackpot. Arrived quickly, the colors are beautiful. Very fun and unique. The light-up wheels are an added bonus and a hit with kids (and adults). It's important to note that these are smaller boards - my 12 year old daughter tried one and it's a little tight for her long frame but that could also be due to inexperience. She still thought they were cool. The only thing we had an issue with is that one of our boards has a wheel that spins slower than the others, so the board pulls towards that wheel a bit. My husband thinks maybe the bearings in this wheel are bad? Kind of a bummer on a new board when there's already a problem. Hopefully this is an easy fix and the other board will hold up better over time.
