Sanview Bamboo Longboard Skateboard Cruiser for Kids Adults

The deck came with very minor damage due to poor packing but didn't bother me at all - really not unexpected given all the differnt size boards Amazon has to pack, the number of deliveries they are making and the dearth of employees right now (your new board will look used anyway in no time).The good - everything else. Nicely made deck, good quality components to include bearings and bushings. Same quality you would get from a Sector 9 cruiser for a fraction of the price.These Walmart and Amazon boards can be great values. Some things to keep in mind. First - make sure you get a skateboard tool. 2. Make sure the trucks are tight to the board. 3. Make sure the truck bushings are properly seated and tighten the trucks down properly onto the bushings. 4. Make sure the bearings are properly seated and the wheels aren't overtightened onto the axles (I usually tighted the retaining bolt until there is only the smallest amount of play any tighter will slow them down).. 2nd and 3rd steps will guarantee the trucks aren't sloppy and will allow the trucks to function as designed. The 4th step will ensure the wheels roll freely and fast. Even though many of the newer offerings are coming with much better bearings than they used to you may opt to purchase some new bearings - the next best and cheapest are probably some mini-logos. Bushings on these boards are on the soft side and will accomodate users who like a little more deep carving capability or who weigh 145lbs or less. Get some bushings that fit your style of riding - probably the most important element of your new board and will guarantee your riding enjoyment. Don't buy the absolute cheapest board - $55 - $75 will get you some good fun and last awhile.

First things first, tighten up the trucks in you don’t want to fall. I tightened them pretty tight maybe almost as far as I could without too much resistance. It’s a little shorter than my last board but it goes a lot faster. It’s smooth. I haven’t tried to go super fast on it. I’m afraid of getting the speed wobbles and busting up my elbows. Aluminum trucks not those horrible plastic ones, good bearings, soft wheels. I really don’t have any complaints. Grip tape holds my feet on good. I’d say definitely worth the money. Not incredibly expensive. I’m not doing tricks on this board I’m just using it strictly for fun and transportation. I’m 31 and I find it fit for use if that helps anybody. Again it’s shorter than your average long board so consider that before you buy but it handles just as good.

Having very little knowledge myself of skateboards I had to rely heavily on reviews when on the hunt for skateboards for my two kids (13 and almost 10). I searched all over Amazon and came upon these gems. It fit the bill for a fun design, had stellar reviews and didn’t break the bank. I didn’t require a super high end expensive board bc they are just for my kids playing around. They have had their new boards a few days now and tell me every five minutes how much they love their boards ... how smooth a ride it is and how much faster they were than their old much cheaper board. The larger wheels are a great plus for my kids too. Quality seems to my inexperienced eye to be very good for the price point. Definitely recommend!

TLDR: 9.5/10! WORTH THE MONEY!I am shocked. This board is excellent. For the price, you would be hard pressed to find anything else of half this quality.Board is fairly flexible and spring under my 210lbs so for lighter riders it will be fairly firm.Use conditions: daily ridingOwnership: 2 monthsBest for: cruisingPros:-Very reasonable cost!-Sturdy and very unique looking board!-Cool color options-Very comfortable ride-Turns very sharp while keeping surprising stability.-material is safe in the rain (though your bearings aren't!)-Durable-The trucks look sick AFCons:-Material scuffs easily. While the integrity isn't affected at all, if you're the kind who cares about keeping your board pristine looking this may not be for you.-bearings that come with it kinda suck. Bit I haven't bought a complete they didn't on, and they are perfectly functional until you can afford to upgrade-bolts are torx, not Philips or standard so my skate tool didn't fit. Easy to replace or ignore.-high stance rather than drop through comes at the cost of stability to a small degree.overall: excellent board, well worth the money, or even more! Great board for people starting out!

Just got it, love it already. the size and shape are perfect for me. Very easy and super fun to ride. The wheels were tightened all the way down, the the trucks came super loose I'm 200 lbs, so i HAD TO tighten them. so, you'll need a tool to adjust it. But, that's to be expected from any complete board. Very light weight, lighter than expected (that's what i wanted!!) bearings aren't that fast, but i suspect they weren't greased... I'll do that later. but overall very pleased.
