Review on Retrospec Quip Skateboard 22.5-inch & 27-inch Classic Retro Plastic Cruiser | Complete Skateboard with ABEC 7 Bearings & PU Wheels by Jim Moody

Revainrating 4 out of 5

So far so good for standard skateboards

I just received a skateboard in a pre-opened retro box that I didn't like. Other than that, it's pretty good. I received a full size 27" board that looks brand new, shrink wrapped in plastic and painted the correct colors. Right after I got on them, the carts were surprisingly loose, which made it very easy to turn and maneuver, but it's difficult for a beginner to balance on, so I plan on pulling the carts up a little to get in to avoid accidental tipping. There is also something to tell about wheels! Right out of the box they look brand new! They have great spin, aren't too tight or too loose, and last a very long time. As a seasoned skateboarder who has been riding for 6 years this board is damn good! Better than anything you could get at Walmart or Target for the same low price.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Some difficulties
