I bought one of the beginner completes back in 2020 and skated that board to learn after 20 years of not skating. My daughters wanted to learn how to skate. So i purchased this board and got another deck from my cousin so we had 2 boards to share and skate on. I just recently upgraded my deck to Nigel Jones Deck and purchased another brand new complete for my oldest daughter. The board i bought 4 years ago I gave it to my youngest daughter and it is still a good deck. Where i live we don't have a local skate shop lol. Small town, altho we do have a small skate park at our local city park and i skate there a lot with my daughters. These decks do great on board slides, tail slide, nose slides, the trucks grind pretty well too. Wheels could be a little softer that's my only complaint. Bearings are good enough for my daughters, but i like a little bit of extra speed.

THEY ARE FOR BEGINNERS SO IT DOESN’T MATTER AS MUCH IF YOU ARE A BEGINNER SO DON’T MIND THE REVIEW. Its a good board but the wheels could be better they don’t spin as good as I thought they would so I did have lube the bell barings and it wasn’t easy to lube them up since it was metal shields.

Does everything I’d want in a beginner board. I wasn’t sure how good it was gonna be after reading and watching a lot about beginner boards but the braille one really holds up.

After a week of riding I'm having a blast. Solid metal trucks. Bearings are great. Thing I appreciated most is the video I got with the purchase. Stoked to support folks from the San Francisco Bay Area.

Works well and I've already learned alot
