purty dad-gum good
I use to skateboard when I was a teenager and decided to live the dream again. I'm 37 now. Getting back on is like riding a bike. The complete product is decent. It's an out sourced product made in China. And they seem to boost about this for some reason. Everything looks and feels to be well made. I would recommend for any first time skaters.Too the negative reviews, You will have to make adjustments! As with any skateboard, people! That's like buying a bike and expecting it to fit any rider. You have to adjust the seat and handlebars. If you've never ridden a skateboard you should probably not write a review on one.Here's a breakdown of each component:The Trucks.Good trucks. The only thing I'm going to replace is the truck bushings. $10 bucks for replacements. These trucks are way to soft for ME. They might be ok for others. It's a personal preference and I like my bushings to be firm. Meaning when you lean from side to side, it's how easy or hard the board turns. I am 200 lbs so hard bushings work better for me. Bones makes great replacement bushings for soft, medium, and firm. $10 on Amazon. Right now I have my trucks cranked down so much that the board will not return to center. So instead of going straight, it will slightly go left or right if your not on it. So if you're trying to tighten your trucks up to take some slop out you're better off just getting stiffer bushings instead of crunching theses softies beyond their abilities.The wheels/bearings.Great. They have a nice spin and only time will tell about the wheels but they seem to be pretty good for street skating. Not too hard or soft.The deck.Looks and feels nice. The grip tape is excellent and the graphics are clean. Not why I bought this board though. This area is where it lost a star from me. The deck is made in China. But that's why it's cheaper than most. Maple wood in North America it's going to cost a bit more and last longer.Overall this is great for the beginner or someone who dabbles. I got mine for $57 on the "other offers from.." basically the ones that got returned for some reason. And it looked brand new with all the tags.No one will be disappointed with this deck. Just remember you may have to replace the bushings if you don't like softies. Go ahead and order the medium or firm with your purchase.

Decent for the price. Needs better bushings
If you buy this board you will need new bushings. These things feel like they're made out of memory foam. Griptape looks fantastic. Also since no one else seems to have a phone with a camera here, I'll post pics of it.

nice!
This is a very nice board for the price. I bought this as my 10 yr son's first skate board. I skated a ton back in the 80's on much larger deck and stiffer trucks. That said it left very good to ride... wheels felt good, bearings had a lot to give, not to stiff and crappy. all and all a solid board. I wish my folks got me something closer to the quality of this board instead of the dreaded varflex from shopko that I started on. Good that was just junk, and an embarrassment to ride. It broke quickly, replaced it with an Alva, and never looked back. All that said, you can't go wrong with this one as a starter.

item should have been covered in heavy duty plastic or bag
Item was scratched when it arrived. If my son didn't need it over the weekend, I would have returned it.

First board, I'm learning fast and it feels awesome. Legit brand.
This is my first skateboard and, after a couple of weeks, I can't be happier. Looks great, feels great, the grip is superb, it's light, and you can take it with you everywhere (this is a huge plus compared to longboards, way easier to start on, but bulky and heavy). Since the brand and components are high quality, the only thing I recommend to change right away are the wheels IF your main use is cruising around every surface and you don't want to fall every time you roll over a crack. The board comes with 99a wheels (extremely hard), so on the sidewalk or roads, these wheels are loud and transmit every possible vibration. Not a complaint, just a recommendation if you are a casual skateboarder and don't care too much about tricks. Super happy with my purchase and enjoying it every day.

Nice board, ready to ride out of the box!
I got this for me so after he broke a $25 board he bought at Target. Before he broke it, he commented (based on his YouTube knowledge) how the cheaper board was stiff, needing to do tthis or that to be able to do tricks.This one came ready to ride. I could even notice/feel how the board moves with you. Great for beginners who really want to learn to skate because it is ready to ride.

Solid board for kids and adults
Bought this for my 8 year old as his first skateboard. It's a nice beginner board and the quality is pretty good. A solid, sturdy board for the price, and the dragon design is A+.

This skateboard is strong
Gave this to my son on his 14th birthday and he really likes it. The only complain he tells me is about the wheels. He said it's kind of stiff, his friends are faster than him. Other than that, this skateboard is strong. My son use it everyday going to his school until before the snow fall.
