Retrospec Zed Pintail & Cruiser Longboard Adult Skateboard - 44in Bamboo & Canadian Maple Deck with ABEC-7 Bearings, 70mm PU Wheels for Commuting & Carving

Pretty good quality for getting something like this on Amazon. I think this is a great choice for someone who started on a cheap skateboard and likes the similar feel to that, while having a less bumpy experience and more mobility.

If you are going to the beach or want something to ride occasionally or in the neighborhood this is great. Normal size, tear shape. Everything seems to be of decent quality. Not the fastest roll but once adjusted does just fine. Im a dad and this works perfect for getting mail or with kids. Took it with us camping and multiple people rode it and liked it. If you’re someone who is going long distances, or downhilling (I doubt you would be shopping here for a comp board) I would stay away. But excellent value for the occasional or beginner/intermediate ride. How can you beat it for $40 when a normal skate deck back in my hay day would be $60 with no bearings or wheels.

Well made and beautifully designed

As a pretty new fan of longboarding, this is the board I decided to make my first board. Read any number of blogs or watch any Youtube video about longboarding and you'll find the same results: Amazon boards like this one are terrible, cheap, etc....and while I won't disagree that they're on the cheap side, this is still a perfectly serviceable beginner board for anyone looking to get into the hobby. It's not what I'd call a "forever board", but if you're looking for something to get into the hobby and just to cruise around the neighborhoods, this is a perfectly fine board for that. My only recommendations are: 1. CHANGE THOSE BEARINGS. Redd bearings are reasonably priced on Amazon, and the ones on this board are...disappointing, to say in the very least. You'll be doing yourself a favor by ordering bearings alongside this board. 2. Consider better wheels. The wheels on this board are fine as is, but they're on the smaller side of Longboard wheels and don't exactly take kindly to rocks, bumps, and cracks like bigger, spongier wheels do. Not a totally necessary step, but would improve the quality of your rides by a lot, especially if you're new and want that smoother ride. Other than that, you've still got a perfectly solid board and a good way to kick off (pun intended) a potential new hobby. I've become a huge fan, and it honestly wouldn't have happened if I hadn't given this board a chance!

Coming from strictly a beginner that thought if I even think about touching one I'll end up in the hospital. This one was easy to learn on and more than worth the 40 dollars. Looks nice too. My only complaint is with a cheaper board it comes with cheaper trucks which after my 10 mile ride .... She's squeaky but should be an easy fix. Good starter board

This is my second time buying one of these! The first one lasted about 4 years before i left it out in the rain and it rusted :( (PSA if you wipe the skateboard off after it gets in the rain, it wont rust. This goes for practically every skateboard on the market) They are the smoothest skateboard I have ever ridden. Literally. And for the price? The best skateboard of all time. I find myself arguing with my friends about who rides what, because they want to use mine! Definitely buy if you're a beginner or not a beginner, this is the best skateboard on the market. There is practically no noise when you ride it. Unless you're on a bumpy road, no one should hear you skating. The weight of the board feels like it should have easily been a $300 board. Very high quality feeling to it. Plus, there is no assembly required! If you want to tighten or loosen the trucks, it's very very easy. If you're on the fence, buy it! You won't regret.

This board is perfect! Only bad things about is lossening the wheels and trunks. But I believe they had to do it so it can be better. For its price is surprisingly better than I thought

We’re really happy with this longboard! It’s sturdy and rides smoothly, which makes it perfect for my 8-year-old. The only downside is that we wish there were more design options, but the quality of the board itself more than makes up for it. A solid choice for kids who are just getting into longboarding.
