🛹 Maple Longboard Cruiser - VOLADOR 40 Inch Review

Love it. I know very little about longboards and I'm very new to it so I'd say this is a great board for beginners, at least because it works for me! Get a chain tensioning tool so it doesn't bend from side to side when you're new, it helps a lot! Also, I replaced the bearings as recommended by previous reviewers. Now it glides much smoother! I'm not sure if the old bearings just needed oil or something. One wheel didn't turn as much as the others and it rattled. It was easier to swap out the…

One of the smoothest, most forgiving longboards I've ever owned. The ride is smooth and fast, the shape is perfect and the board has ENOUGH flex. I hate super hard boards. This Volador meets all my expectations and the price is POINT. The arrow graphics are awesome and the whale logo grip tape is just cool. I've paid a lot more for longboards and haven't enjoyed it as much as I have with this one. I streamlined the carts a bit but other than that it's literally perfect for what I wanted. I will

I've always thought longboards were cool and was looking for a way to commute to work without the cost of gas. I'm just a beginner so I didn't want to spend more than $150 on a longboard so I immediately went to Amazon to look for a cheap board. I've come across a few that were within my budget but this one seemed to have the best reviews so I figured I'd buy it. It looked very good straight out of the box and I learned how to drive it straight away. The bikes are great and where I live the…

Board only arrived yesterday. I bought this for myself because I normally ride the Santa Cruz Cruiser and wanted a longboard that I could ride and chill out on for a bit. Great board right out of the box. good size board; 40 inches is neither incredibly long nor short. The soundboard is slightly flexible but there is no sense of instability. The wheels are very soft. Trucks turn VERY well with no adjustment. but they are easy to replace (although they were better than my Santa Cruz bearings)…

DISCLAIMER: This was my first experience buying a longboard, so I didn't know if certain specifications I found about this particular longboard were the same or at least similar to other longboards. Now for the rating. The delivery was great right away. The longboard was delivered to me within a very short time. It was properly and carefully packaged and there was plenty of padding inside to keep the board safe. As soon as I took the board out I have to say I was very impressed. I almost…

A first cruiser board full of potential. The only real disappointment are the bearings; None of them were great on my board, but some were better than others. That said, $15 for a pair of decent bearings improved glide significantly, but if you're doing really short rides on a small college campus, you might not notice. Middle of the road probably isn't worth the upgrade unless you're really into longboarding. When you loosen them up they offer enough flex for decent carving without being…

I'm 21 years old and need a longboard to get around campus and relax. I preferred a board to a bike because the board is much more portable (i.e. fits in a car). I've always loved board sports (skateboarding, snowboarding, kayaking) so I decided it was time to get my first longboard. I did a little research and compared the parts to the longboard my friend bought from Target and a number of other longboards here at Revain. He pulled the trigger, not knowing what to expect. Here is my impression
