Review on ๐Ÿ›น Complete Skateboard by Powell Golden Dragon by Ricardo Thotti

Revainrating 4 out of 5

cute rubber band dad suitable for skates, skateboards and scooters

I used to skateboard as a teenager and decided to live the dream again. I'm 37 now. Coming back is like riding a bike. The finished product is decent. This is an outsourced product made in China. And somehow they seem to be enforcing it. Everything looks and feels well made. I would recommend it to all beginner skaters. If the reviews are too negative, you have to make adjustments! Just like all skateboard guys! It's like buying a bike and expecting it to fit every rider. You need to adjust the seat and steering wheel. If you've never ridden a skateboard, you probably shouldn't check it out. Here's a breakdown of each component: Trucks. Good trucks. The only thing I will be replacing is the handlebar bushings. $10 for a replacement. These trucks are too soft for me. You can be okay with others. This is personal preference and I prefer fixed bushings. That means when you lean from side to side it depends on how easy or hard the board turns. I'm 200 pounds so stiffer bushings are better for me. Bones makes great replacement bushings for soft, medium and hard bushings. $10 for Revane. Right now my trucks are so twisted that the board won't come back to center. Instead of going straight, it moves slightly to the left or right when you're not on it. So if you're trying to tighten up your trucks to get some dirt out, you should just get stiffer bushings instead of crunching those soft things past their capacity. wheels / bearings. Excellent. They have good spin and only time will tell on the wheels, but they seem pretty good for street riding. Not too hard and not soft. deca. Looks nice. The recording tape is great and the graphics are clean. But that's not why I bought this board. In this area he lost a star from me. The deck is made in China. But that's why it's cheaper than most. Maple wood in North America costs a little more and lasts longer. Overall, this is great for beginners or those who are new to it. I bought mine from "other listings by" for $57. mostly those who returned for some reason. And it looked brand new with all the tags. This deck will not disappoint anyone. Just keep in mind that if you don't like stuffed animals, you may need to replace the bushings. Book a medium or company with your purchase.
