Review on ๐Ÿ›น Revive Your Ride with the Stylish Ridge Retro Mini Cruiser Board! by Mike Phillips

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Just a great board

Great cruising board for all ages and riding styles. I skateboarded a lot when I was younger. I got older and started longboarding, and then I bought a smaller longboard for school. I discovered penny boards when I heard they were a compact way to travel. airports. parking spaces. Down the street. whatever it is I chose the 22" ribbed board after reading the positive reviews. Then came the color I wanted (orange board, green wheels) for $29. Too good a deal to pass up. I'm incredibly surprised. It feels good in the hand, is very light and well made. The board flexes a bit and I'm 6ft 140lbs. He's quite tall and thin. Flex is nice. Makes it easier to overcome bumps and cracks. Axles and wheels had to be loosened a bit. But not much. I would guess they will work themselves out over time. abec bearings, good solid bearings with good sound. I'll probably switch to red, but that's personal preference and I happen to have an extra set lying around. Other reviews said they break. Poor quality built. Too small. whatever it was yes he is small It's a 22" board. Still I find it nice and comfortable to ride. Even for long periods of time. I'm not afraid of breaking mine. Everything about it seems very solid. And the build quality is way better than I would expect for the price I paid for what I expected. If you've been thinking about getting a penny style board. Look no further. Pick up a skateboard. From someone who has had many different boards over the years, from enjoi, plan B, Sector 9 and Pavilions This board is the real deal I thought I might just try this out before buying a penny for Australia but now I'd be perfectly happy to buy more anytime.
