Review on 🛹 Carving Skateboard with Magneto Longboard Design by Eric Krull

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good for beginners

I'm new to riding especially cruising and I have to say this board was easy to ride. I started with a 27.5" mini cruiser and found it to be too small. I'm a 6ft 190lb male so I needed something bigger and wider so I could feel more stable. I ordered a 38" x 9" " magnetic whiteboard and it was perfect. Magneto's packaging is good, nice and compact and the board is ready to use almost straight away. I've listened to a few reviews about checking all the screws to make sure nothing was loose and I had to tighten the bogies and bushings a bit (optional depending on how much you like them) The rest of the board is nice and easy to ride PS the quality of the bearings and wheels seems good to me but I'm new and this is my first longboard so I don't have much to compare it to.Update 9/27/18 It's been 2 weeks and I've learned a lot since I bought new bearings (exhilarating shaking) and immediately felt the difference. I have a Also bought new wheels (Bigfoot Mountain Cruiser) which are bigger and stiffer (76mm, 80a vs the stock 70mm, 78a) which made the board faster and smoother. Now I can say with certainty that the stock bearings are decent and worth upgrading considering they are cheap to buy. If you want to go faster I would recommend getting bigger and stiffer wheels. I still don't know enough to have a solid opinion on bogies/hubs, but they seem good to me.

Pros
