agreed hes way to BIAS toward his brand . like a 3 vs a 9 and landed both trick perfect the first time.... he be capping .. like a 7vs9 makes more sence , the amazon board is 50$ and from amazon lol what do you expect . boards cost 50$ alone ...
I needed this video to try to explain to my dad why not to cheap out when I was younger. So many bad boards before I got an actual board. This video would have saved him money. Oh now do a comparison of leaving those boards in the rain 🌧️
I have the Braille Walmart complete and am blown away with the quality. Doesn't feel much different than my old pro board from World Industries and I'm older and coming back from a 10 year hiatus so I'm skating smaller stuff than I did back in the 90's and early 2000's on the World Industry, it's perfect to get my feet back in the water!
@@bretwhitten7038 The decks themselves are 7-ply maple pressed in the same factory that like 90% of all decks are pressed. The decks are fine except for the garbage heat transfer. Everything else about the complete is absolute trash. $50 isnt terrible for just the deck though.
as if Aaron called it at the end. what a legend. Aaron if you are reading this you are a all-star! i always root for you when you do games of skate. everyone knows your experienced but i think they don't know just how advanced!! awesome video, because of your channel i just built my setup today getting back on a board at 27 after 5 years. thank you!
Dude great video! Sorry about your knee. OUCH! My thing with reviews is that beginners use beginner products. I’d love to see you put a beginner on each board and do some basic skating. We used to see it at guitar center that the staff could play any guitar but we were selling to parents trying to help beginners succeed and not quit. Thank y’all!!
I’ve seen people dissing the beginner complete on instagram, so I’m really keen to hear what you have to say about it. So far, what you’ve said about the water based adhesive does make a lot of sense. Some heavier duty skaters would notice that. But like you said, when you’re starting out, you shouldn’t be hitting 5-stairs anyways. By that point, you should have practiced everything else first, and furthermore, you probably would need a new board by then.
It was a completely inferior board. The trucks don’t grind and the bearings roll like sand. This dude clearly is maybe 5’10” and 165 pounds and he snapped it on the first large landing of the day. I would never put my kid on that skateboard.
Thanks for making my day… calling the tail snap and splits “and I really can’t do the splits today..” then with full confidence in the whitefang 3 block, you perform the tail snap to splits.. 😆
Looking this video bevor going to bed and then a fc bayern München Jersey 😮. Just wanted to say thank you guys for bringing me back to skateboarding after 25 years... I am over 40 now and skate with my son every day it's possible. I forgot over the years what a wonderful lifestyle it is. Greets from Germany.
I decided to get back on a board at the tender age of 38, first time since my early 20s. I purchased a new Element complete for £30 ($38) just get back into the swing of things and being a brand I remembered; I had high hopes for it. But... it was total trash, I was genuinely disappointed. The trucks were ridiculously loose despite how much I tightened them, it just made no difference. The board itself just felt heavy and 'muted' if that makes sense. Though I can't do any flip tricks anymore, the ollie and pop shuv I did manage felt gross - the pop sounded cheap as the amazon board. When it comes to skateboards, if you buy cheap, you buy twice.
One thing to mention for the beginner complete vs the regular complete (the braille ones) is if you are a pretty heavy individual like me the beginner complete has a little more flex to it from your weight (but this could be anecdotal)
Thanks to braille I also took my skateboard back and started the learning process with a more “adult” and methodical approach and results are coming,making me proud happy and definitely more relaxed
you should have done a "slo-mo" replay of Aaron saying "No! the board is going to break and i'm going to do the splits" lol... Aaron definitely foresaw his future on that one!
Man I skated alot through 90s was fully sponsored for many years doing boards and inlines I remember at 1 point we would buy big blank boards and would cut our own design they were cool but heavy I remember the change from bigger boards and wheels to the little wheels and slimmer boards the technical aspect has come so far and still love it
One thing about A LOT of cheap completes is the companies tend to overtighten the bolts on the wheels so it makes the bearings feel worse than they actually are. Make sure u guys loosen the bolts slightly on the trucks so the bearings can spin freely
When my brother got his first skateboard back in the day (must have been 99 or 2000), it was a cheap, Chinese thing we bought in ITaly. He took off the plastic wrap and the grip tape literally came away from light rubbing!
I do appreciate the comparison between the two boards but as a skater you can see the braille board is just better quality. Even the pop on the braille board sounds sooo much better compared to the amazon board. However, for a absolute beginner learning to roll around I think the amazon board is the best 'starter' board especially for the price! But the braille board is that next step up before committing to a full pro deck. Great vid, keep up the great content! 🔥🔥
You two make Braille the banter and vibe between you is authentic AF. G8 fall hands where knee would hit and roll - that sold me and I have a 5/10 opinion of all cheapy boards but when it matters IT MATTERS

I always wanted to skateboard but parents would get walmart boards for me. Killed it for me. Late highschool I rocked the ripstick tho lol Now I'm 32 and remembered I could just buy my own like I always wanted. Passion reignited so I've been saving up and losing some weight. Skateboard is going to be my reward but I've been really tempted to just buy one and use it to lose weight as well lol
You can visibly see that the white fang has little to no snap its like dead wood. The Braille board has a ridgedness that gives it the snap your looking for. Even the sound of both boards hitting the floor the white fang sounds like its made from reused balsa wood 😂
Appreciated the comment on the plastic trucks at the beginning. My first ever board had plastic trucks, and I gave up skateboard because of it, only to pick it up again 20 years later. Don't buy boards with plastic trucks, don't let your parents buy you board with plastic trucks, and don't buy boards with plastic trucks for anybody. Better save for a little longer to get a board with metal trucks.
Bro, my first skateboard was a Pokémon from Walmart with plastic trucks... thing did what it needed to and never broke. I just upgraded to a Zero pro deck . Later on when I got better I messed around with the Pokémon board and was doing 50-50s, 5-0s and nosegrinds on the flat rail with it. It was funny not hearing the metal on metal sound though
If this is a new series, maybe compare the braille boards to pro models from different companies as well maybe? Wouldn’t be bad to see how they stack up.
If you end up with a cheap complete, if it has metal trucks that can be adjusted enough that they're not flopping around, picking up some decent wheels and bearings makes the whole experience infinitely better. In my experience most cheap completes feel awful because the wheels barely roll. Yeah the decks almost always lack pop, but when you're going through the motions learning to ollie lacking pop doesn't really mean much as you don't have a point of reference if you've never skated a decent deck before.
does anyone know if it would be hard it would be to transition from a board like the white fang to a higher quality board like theirs? im nearly 18 and ive been riding an amazon white fang board for yearsssss, progression has been feeling a bit slow but im attached to the board😭 but i want to try and improve my skills with a better board.
It took me until watching this video to realize that a backside boardslide has to do with where the ledge is (behind you) and not to do with how you spin to get there (frontside) . Can someone explain to me how you would differentiate a backside grind that you get into by turning frontside, from a backside grind you get into by turning backside (in terms of what you call it)?
sweet video keep it up! i was wondering if you could help me with my kickflip, i always land on the tail of the board, any tips for me so i can land more on the front of the board?
I bought my first real skateboard off amazon last year and I was finally able to learn how to ollie. I had walmart boards during my childhood and had no skater friends. I bought an Element board and i love it, as soon as I let the wheels hit the ground, the sound of it let me know it was the real deal 🤘🏽
i bought a board off amazon 3 weeks ago and eveything is wrong with it now i just got into skateboarding and now i feel like that board will be the death of me the bearings started giving trouble one week and the rubber which makes you turn is tearing more and more and the board it self is just too weak.
It'd be great if people at the park can also test the boards and rate them, that way everyone would see how better can an actually board made for skating be.
Braille team, I have been doing everything in my power to learn how to kickflip. I’ve watched ever tutorial on UA-cam and i can’t put it together. Please help I’m trying so hard.
not sure what kind of board i have but it’s checkered on the bottom and the grip tape is rough (like concrete) any way i can identify it? it’s from amazon
I wanna start skateboarding but my parents cant afford to spend £90 on a board and the closest holiday now is Christmas so idk weather i should just get a cheap one for now until Christmas?
Hey, i have been skating for a while and can shuvit and boneless but I’m scared to pop while Ollie’s, everything i do a pop it works out but i just can’t do it, is there anything that I’m doing wrong?
I just bought out The Ollie's discount store in my town of your braille completes. They were only $20, I was shocked to see them and bought all 20 of them
It's all about visiting your local skate shop as a beginner, even better if they have more made in the USA stuff there than not. Made in Canada works too.
U should do a test take that Amazon board and the braille board cover both graphics up with tape or something and have someone else try both boards. Kind of a blind test. Just put a mark on the tape on 1 board so u can easily tell em apart but they won’t be able to. Should regrip both of em to so they’ll look closer from top.
The fact that a pro board now, costs the same as a pro board 30 years ago, kinda blows my mind. I got my Mike McGill mini in 1988 and it cost about $110. Slime ball wheels, geman bearings. The whole deal. And you can still get a pro board for the same price. That's crazy
Just ordered a Darkstar complete here in Australia from one of the big surf/skate retailers 70% off and should be here in 2 days. Think the deck and amp apec 5 bearings are decent with half decent wheels but core trucks which I think are pretty cheap heavy duty aluminium with steel kingpins and axles and USA made bushings and pivot cups so not all bad on the trucks but for $60 AUD it’s a start back into skating after 10 years away from it and will upgrade the trucks to indie’s anyway
Isn't the plastic under the trucks because the manufacturer make the deck come from an other place where they put plastic in before shipping? I don't know if it's understandable 😆
Thing is cheap skateboards or any product often has little thought or design and the problem with grinding on that rail was due to terrible hangers on the trucks so they can't cross lock or lock in period and I'm assuming the shape of the inside of the wheels or the "cut" of them which also makes huge difference. That with the cheap quality wood of the deck itself which would be shocked if actually 7 ply Canadian Maple is probably 5 (Ply)wood
I just bought the baker but I wanted to get into it I was all day skater but I’m broke and old but got the baker set up then imma switch the trucks to Krux and get the rictas wheels
bro I use a white fang 😭😭 I started skating on it I've learned to do an ollie and a manual (dont know if i've said it right) I'm hoping to get a bakar board and also, my opinion on the board is that even tho its cheap, I don't think its that's bad tbh and I haven't used a premium skateboard, so cant really be the judge of thta but yeah, love your videos!
Just broke my ankle today I was skating a half pipe and slide out and fel right on my ankle and fractured the growth plate in my ankle and fractured the tibia so I’ll be out of skating for a while sadly I’m bummed I can’t skate really sucks and the pain is pretty bad but I’ll binge watch the braille videos!

@@brailleskateboarding If we get a video before the end of this week on Sunday, his only challenge is dropping in on the Braille complete. If not, then I'm going to keep on keeping tabs my boy😊
You guys should try a blind test. Sand the bottom of both boards, try and hide which is which, and see which one feels better.
There are to many other identifying features.
maybe it could work if they got someone unaware with the braille boards
@@SkribbleNL or someone that's not a skater at all.

tuck your legs up to your chest when you jump or at least consciously try and also kick out further and harder/faster

Have you ever tried just purely blank amazon boards with high ratings? Use your own mob or jessup grip and put normal trucks setup?
I don’t think we have actually
Thanks Kryo for risking your life to test the Amazon board lol

Is it just me or at 22:50 it looks like the tail already broke
Can’t be doing the splits today lmao
They sell Brails on Amazon... so Brails are Amazon boards by association, right?

@@brailleskateboarding If we get a video before the end of this week on Sunday, his only challenge is dropping in on the Braille complete. If not, then I'm going to keep on keeping tabs my boy😊
The braille board just looks such more aesthetically pleasing as well
