These NPET skateboards are not bad, not bad at all. The wheels are soft so rough asphalt or pebble stone is not a problem. The trucks are ok and do their job, but grinds/stalls on curbs tear them up pretty quick. The hardware they ship with are short, so upgrades (pads, risers, new trucks, etc.) will required new longer bolts. The bearings are not the best, but far from the worst. The deck is standard popsicle with a good degree of concave. The wood is not the greatest and chips pretty easily on failed tricks. The grip tape is sufficient and has stood up to ollies, pop shoves, and kickflips without rubbing off, but it is flaking off on the nose and tail due to failed flips. The bushings are squishy and require a lot of tightening (and retightening). All and all, these are pretty good cheap boards that little ones can learn on (and work on) before moving up to a pro board with a better setup. Read more

The reviews said this was a good board and the wheels turned well. It got here and I gave them a spin....was nervous as they didn't just spin for days. Was a gift for our 8 yo son. He loved it when he opened it, and when he took it outside to ride we held out breaths. Turns out that it was just what we ordered. He's tried other boards that had sucky bearing and quit riding it quickly. This one he's been riding daily because it works so good! Always happy when the reviews are spot on! Read more

It looks exactly as pictured. We got the black ( orange skull). I'm unsure of durability at this point where he's only had it a week or 2 but it seems to be a nice skate board. It came a week early which made my son super happy & I was surprised since if anything usually items are late rather than early. I'm happy with the purchase Read more

Bought this for my 7 yr old. (He's never skated before). The deck, trucks and wheels are perfect! It's solidly made and seems perfect for him, or anyone. My only problem was the "super-soft" bushings. No matter how much I tightened the trucks, the board was too wobbly and the wheels would even rub the bottom of the deck when I turned. He's smaller of course, but the wobbly board made it nearly impossible for a beginner to ride. The GOOD news it that it's an easy fix. I bought some firmer medium bushings for $10 and it was a COMPLETELY different board. Very steady. Still turns well. And can be adjusted to tighten or loosen. So in summary, the board is great. It just needs firmer bushings. This is the only reason for 4 Stars instead of 5. Read more

First board for my 6 year old. He loves it!!! The wheels glide so smooth and feels like a great quality for the amazing price... we are not experienced skaters so someone who's been doing it a while could say something otherwise because we don't have much to compare to but we feel its great quality!

Bought this board to pickup the hobby again. Great board out of the box. The bearings it comes with are Meh at best, for beginners its totally fine. If you want a little more ease and better roll I picked up an installed a set of Shiver ABEC-9 bearings in the wheels and is noticeably better as it is a much better quality bearing. Beyond that its a great board and I have no complaints Read more

My son wanted a skateboard. I know nothing on the subject. It's well constructed has taken a beating, and held up well. It came with a carry wrap strap deal. It is an excellent deal for the price. I am very happy with the purchase. He is happy with his board. Read more

Good skateboard but starts to fall apart quickly. If you are just skating on it, no tricks, not a lot, it should be great... but my daughter has been trying to do tricks and riding it a lot- and its starting to chip and break very quickly. We are so disappointed! Read more
