TL;DR at the bottom.I usually never write reviews but as someone who's trying to get into the hobby, I feel like I should shed some light for those that are trying to get into longboarding given the crazy time we live in.DISCLAIMER:I'm not a pro or anything. Just an amateur getting into the hobby and likes to coast and might eventually want to learn some tricks.Review:Before purchasing this board, I did a lot of research on Reddit, watched a lot of YouTube and Instagram videos, and scoured the internet to find the "right" board for me. I compared the size and dimensions of this board to other boards from different brands that have similarly sized/spec'd boards and ultimately decided on this one simply because of its price point. It was $69.99 + tax when I purchased it. That and I needed a skate tool too. Win-win so why not, right?I've been riding the board for about a week now and overall, it's a decent beginner board for dancing or just cruising. It IS a big board so if you're trying to do longboard tricks, you can do it but it'll just take some practice and getting used to.HOWEVER. I will say that you will need to change all of the hardware, wheels, bushings, bearings, the whole nine yards. With the stock equipment, there's absolutely little or no control of the board and the feel of it is just... Messy? I tightened and loosened and did everything I could with all the nuts and bolts attached. But nothing I did changed the feel and control of it.Due to my research, when I purchased the board, I ordered some Caliber trucks, Zealous bearings, Riptide bushings, and some Seismic wheels. (A lot of these things will come down to personal preference so please do your research.)The combination of changing all these things drastically transformed the feel and control of the entire board. It was literally night and day. While I had little to no control before, now I had full control of it. Now it feels tight and clean and responsive. (Again, this is my preference and how I like my board to feel.)Another thing I noticed was there's a slight misalignment with the board. If you look at the picture attached, the hardware at the bottom of the board is skewed slightly to the left. (Probably a QA issue, or lack thereof I'm guessing). As an amateur rider, this doesn't pose a huge issue to me at the moment as the board seems to still go straight. (THIS PICTURE IS NOT SHOWING THE STOCK WHEELS.)The other things:The wheels light up. That was cute.The bag.Lol. I mean... It's a bag that you COULD use as a backpack thanks to the straps but... When I got the board, one end of the trucks weren't even in the bag cause the board itself didn't even fit. It's a 46" (116.84 cm) board for crying out loud. You could toss the bag or use it for another smaller board. Which is what I plan on doing. But obviously don't expect like a Timbuk2 or Chrome Industries level quality bag here.Skate tool.Does its job. It's made of plastic and has the metal ends to adjust all your hardware needs. The screwdriver portion gets held in place inside the tool via an o-ring that's on the screwdriver itself. Lose the o-ring, lose the screwdriver portion.Overall/TL;DR:It's an okay beginner longboard for dancing and cruising. You need to replace everything besides the board in order for it to feel decent. You get what you pay for.(I had a Rimable board before this one that would get wheel bite and that board was complete trash. This is miles better than that, but probably not as good as boards from Pantheon, Loaded, Crown, 1loveboards, Travelol, all these bigger brands.)Honestly, if you just want to try longboarding, it's not a bad board. And if you don't like it, you can give it to a neighbor or friend. And if you like the hobby, you can buy some upgrade parts or just buy a decent complete from one of the many brands out there.If you got this far, thank you for reading! :)
