Ideal for Chalkboard Sheets

If you enjoy making chalkboard sheets they are ideal for places where you can't grow. Makes slides much smoother, faster and you save graphics. If you are installing a flight deck, go to your local hardware store and buy smaller screws.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Speed

A little tricky to install but great overall

I love the look of it! They were really difficult to install but overall they looked great. Well, as for how well they glide, I haven't been able to test them yet, but it looks like they glide amazingly well. Just know that you have to apply tons of pressure to get her to bite the tree.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Compatibility

Okay, they are what they are, plastic ribs.

Ok the fins are plastic. I gave 2 stars because a screw was missing and the screws that came with it barely fit the holes on the fins. I had to drill holes with a drill to make them fit. I'm an older, well-read old skater who's mounted ribs on the board 10+ times, but it was a pain in the ass. Buddy, check next time, count the screws.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Damaged

screw problem? Check again

If you read the instructions and install with screws only, they work perfectly. At first glance, the screw heads are slightly larger than the hole in the rail. But don't panic... if you tighten it with a screwdriver, the plastic will stretch as you screw it in because it's a soft material that makes for a perfect fit! Don't listen to the haters, the hardware works fine. Do not exaggerate!

Pros
  • Amazing
Cons
  • No performance

Thank goodness not everything from 80's skateboarding was discontinued

As an 80's skateboarder I was so lucky to find them. Makes a big difference when you pick up a board. IMO it also helps with slipping/grinding. Only if Schmitt Stix re-released their splints with an extra lip to insert fingers, or even Variflex (yes, the Variflex that the big stores sold) would these be the best splints I've ever had.Used.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Has flaws

Exactly what we were looking for!

Both sets of fins were perfect. Easy to install and while they haven't worn much yet, what little they have is holding up as expected. Overall very happy with the price and product and they look great on our decks! Due to the fiberglass, installation on an Andy Anderson deck was a bit more difficult than on a standard deck, and be aware that on a thinner board the screws will pierce a bit at the top. However, on a standard deck like the Powell Peralta Skull and Sword, the screw lengths are…

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • outdated

Old School Skateboarding Housekeeper

These are exactly the things I remember from the late 80's when I first started skateboarding. And then I had a brand new premium mini board from Vision "Mark" Gonzales, which was expensive. I remember well how my older brother (who bought me my first skateboard for my birthday) had to buy carts, wheels, bearings, clutch band, stiffeners separately. I wish these ribs could be shipped in a box instead of bubble wrap. The rib bones arrived in great condition and I'm very happy with them, however…
