Review on Freeride Longboard Skateboard Junli 41 Inch - Complete Cruiser For Downhill, Carving, Free-Style, And Cruising by Robert Hines

First off, my first board came warped, they sent a replacement and it’s now working perfectly fine.But, if you’re looking for a board to use in parks and downhill related stuff, this board is AMAZING for the price. I went a good half mile in three minutes using this thing on an all downhill portion of a local park i live by. The bearings are iffy, but still pretty fast. The trucks are hard and stiff. The board itself is very light, making it really bad for any type of potholes, rocks, and sticks. Now, don’t get me wrong, it still goes over twigs and rocks at very high speeds; just not uneven concrete and potholes. I was probably going around 15-20 miles an hour and this thing, and I hit a pothole with some uneven rubble marble stuff around it. It stopped. COMPLETELY (for about 1/2 a second) Now, mind you, this wasn’t a "mother of all potholes,” it really wasn’t something you’d expect to send you flying into the the concrete. But, you do get what you pay for, and what you paid for is *normal* road downhill riding and carving. So yeah, that wasn’t the nicest of experiences. But overall it’s an amazing board if you just stick to regular downhill riding. If you wanna upgrade the wheels, I’d suggest shark wheels, since it shoves pebbles out of the way while you’re riding; or something like that. I haven’t used shark wheels, personally, but I’m planing on buying a heavier board with some shark wheels; since i don’t ever want to get sent off my board at those high speeds ever again; it’s nothing short of a miracle that I’m not in the hospital… Just stick to smooth roads please. ( And no it’s not a matter of skill, if the board stops even for a 1/2 second while you’re going fast, no matter how skilled you are, it will send you flying.)
