Review on ๐Ÿ›น Ultimate Riding Experience: Powell Golden Dragon Complete Skateboard Tricycles, Scooters & Wagons by Justin Anderson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very wooden for skateboarding

Uhhhhmmmm. This is a skateboard, before I start, this is Powell's trademark skateboard, one of the ancestors of skateboards. I distinctly remember stealing my first Powell Peralta from my older brother, which brought me to my knees forever. So again, this is a skateboard, this is wood, good wood, hard wood, hard wood, colorful wood, nice wood. The wheels are of good basic quality, no pigs but no CCS either so not much to write about here. The average ex-camps again have nothing to write home about, but the trucks are where they lost the star. These are cheap Chinese die cast trucks. My son doesn't stomp curve loops on a cement ledge so I don't mind but if you plan on giving this board beans I'd invest in at least a couple of companies or just drive independent trucks why stop at what you get lucky. Again good for kids and beginners upgrading trucks or just putting together custom kits. fin
