Came in bad condition.

My daughter got it for Easter and was so excited that she rode it. The board came out very loose and wobbly. My husband fixed it with his tools but then we realized he was turning sideways. Basically correct. My daughter has had several accidents from being turned into trees or other large objects. This makes her very sad. We took them to the skate park as it's flatter. Tilting and turning become even more noticeable! Very disappointed and my daughter (13 years old) must be sad.

It's + Shorty's gear + ABEC-9 = Grinding Gnar

I bought this complete 27 inch penny style cruiser like new from Revain stock for a whopping $26. The deck and soft PU wheels are of high quality. Everything else is not very good. I was expecting the same amount to come in, so I upgraded the $4 Shorty and $14 unbranded ABEC-9 hardware. I will drive trucks as they are and hope for the best. For $44 total, I have a sleek 27-inch cruiser that rivals the equivalent of a $130 penny. I am very satisfied and would highly recommend this board to…

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

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Great board for the price

I am an adult and only bought the 27" board to ride in the area and on nearby trails. box) the board rides smoothly. The board is wrapped in plastic but is easy to remove if you remove the axles first. I think this board is good for beginners who just want to ride. Before the last time I rode it, I skateboarded in high school (almost 10 years ago). However, I found this board light and comfortable to ride. If you just want some driving without breaking the bank this is a great buy. You can…

Great cruiser for the beach!

I bought this penny board to use at the beach and to walk my dog. I find it much more valuable than a well known brand penny board. You get the same value at a much cheaper price. The color really catches the eye. The board rides very smooth, just keep an eye on those rocks or you will fly off the board. The bearings are not too loose and can be tightened. The only thing I didn't like was that the plastic wrap around the bearings is very difficult to remove. I would highly recommend this board…

Good board after improvements

Good board after some tweaking. First of all, the board is delivered assembled upon receipt. However, the deck itself is covered in plastic on which carts are mounted. It's a little disappointing when you rip off all the plastic for cleanliness. When I opened it, I noticed that the wheels were screwed on too tightly. For those who don't know, if the nut holding the wheel to the truck axle is too tight, the wheel won't turn well. Because of this, you may have seen reviews where people say the…

  • Everything is fine!

Experienced Rider Rating

A few details before we get started: Rider weighs 205 pounds, US size 12 men's shoes and is an experienced skateboarder (12 years on the road) and snowboarder (21 years each season) so very comfortable on the desk. THIS IS IMPORTANT IF YOU'RE STILL LEARNING AND PLANNING TO RIDE IT TO YOUR FAVORITE PLACES. If this is you, I recommend getting a bigger board with a wider wheelbase to learn from. You can come back to this as you develop better balance/ability (that's just my opinion, don't worry)…
