Dude thank you for this video! I used to skate alot but stopped around 19 or so. I'm 24 now and recently got the spark to hop on a longboard. I was looking at the amazon boards vs quality boards. I think I may go with an amazon board as my first. Thanks for the video! Also my neighborhood has smooth sidewalks and streets as well so this should do just fine. Thanks again for the video 👍👍
I've had mine for over a year now and love it. I've considered upgrading but I'm going to stick with this one as long as possible. It's my first board other than my dad's old board that I first learned to ride on so I don't have anything to really compare it to. I ride it maybe 5 to 6 times a week for transportation and go over several different surfaces, it handles everything but the most chewed-up asphalt. I've heard people say the bearings aren't great and you could go faster with better bearings, but I'm a newbie and like having my face attached, so I'm sticking with the ones that it came with. Only damage I have so far are little pock-marks on the wheels and the nose is starting to get worn out.
Same here! I’m a college student so I use it every day going to my classes and it’s very sturdy. I never had the death wobbles going downhill (which is great considering campus is very hilly). It does have a small crack at the nose bc of the one time I bailed and it hit a brick wall. Other than that, it’s doing fine a year later. Just do some adjustments before you go out riding and you should be fine.
For everyone who is upset that the price on Amazon is $150 please understand that this video was made 2 years ago and prices change. The trucks also seem to be made of medal so the boards are higher quality so they should cost more. If your just giving other people a heads up though that's cool.
I got a Playshion board the other day. I’m new to long boarding and this is wayyy better than what I expected. I used it for a bout two hours than tried my friend’s board which he paid $200 for. The only difference I noticed was that the turning is less advanced and the ride is slightly less smooth (this was on the shoreline on shitty roads however). Highly recommended for beginners.
@@sanjeevpenupala lmaooo i burned it. used it for about a year and the bearings rusted out because i’m in a salty air area. recommend it to start out but not for long-term.
This video was extremely helpful! I was planning on getting the same type of board and price on amazon and this is definitely helped with input before purchasing! Amazing video I’m a beginner and this really helped
I’m just starting to get into skateboarding and as of now I own I normal skateboard. I really don’t prioritize doing tricks though and I kind of want to just ride around and relax and have fun but I don’t know if it would be better to get a penny board or long board
I'm by no means an expert but a good longboard is going to offer a smoother more comfortable ride compared to a penny board, if you want to relax and have fun and size isn't an issue, I'd reccomend a longboard
Longboards have stood the test of time I haven't seen anyone ride a penny since like 2014. Penny's are meant for speed unless you don't mind speed wobles and eating pavement. Get yourself a sector 9, arbor, santa cruz or globe cruiser. Penny board actually made a longboard too which I actually recommend unlike the original tiny penny.
I just bought a couple of the Volador freeride boards, running about $70. They're super fun! Break down the bearings and relube them, and you're going to have a great time.
I was never a regular skater, but was intrigued by videos of electric skateboards. I got a cheap amazon board just to see if I'm capable of riding a board, if i like it and can balance well enough, and I *love* it. It's changed everything, and now I'm not even confident I want to go electric anymore, I'm just having a ball with the thing.
Hey I know it’s been 5 years 😅 but I got a question: I saw people saying that the wood is Not really good quality,because it breaks really fast.Is it true? Does your longboard still live? Or is it broken,After 5 years? It Would be very helpful if you Would answer. Thank you

Good thing I already bought this. I decided I need a hobie so I thought I should try long boarding scince I moved down south and there are a lot of people who long board here. Thank you for the video
Hey Marc, awesome review on the board! Even when you're riding the dialogue came through crystal clear. I know it's been a few years so you have probably replaced it by now, but how much use did you get out of it? Appreciate the help!
I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! I still use this longboard as my main longboard! Still going strong. Granted, I'm not riding as often, but it's lasted this long!
@@MarcTaraz Awesome to hear! Might have to pick one up if they're still available. My Santa Cruz is starting to show its age after about 8 years! I've watched a bunch of your other videos and you make really great content. Any chance you would want to do a review for us too? Thanks again man!
I got a $60 Amazon long board, I didn't know if I could ride, but was interested in an electric board, so I wanted to try it, experiment. I love it, and have since replaced wheels and bearings, will probably replace deck soon, as far as I'm concerned, if you don't have lots to spend, and want to know if it's for you, it's a it's great way in to longboarding. My trucks were metal, but powder coated, so I thought they were plastic until I scratched one
I’m 30 I’m going to get drop down has more stability as I’m new to it but if you want something more flexible for learning tricks you gotta go for something more small cruiser longboard shaped people easily move for cruiser longboard because it push’s and it takes further faster! Jp Toronto Lol good luck be safe
It takes you further meaning when you push you go faster sorry I never check what I write lol for me I’m tempted to get drop down longboard on amazon it’s only 90 dollars Canadian! Peace ✌️
So I have been longboarding for over a year and now my 10 year old daughter wants a longboard now so this year she gets one .. Now I have a Santa Cruz which is all good and rides it too. So since buying one for that low price I feel alil safer knowing it's great for her to start out with a cheaper one than one I've $100 like mine, just it's shoes that's where I am like get any skate shoe haha
Im trying to get it! I’m trying to get into long boarding cause I was trying my cousins the other day and I found it so fun I just have to save up. I don’t have lots of money🥶
Thank you so much! Means a lot to me! I've gotten much better since I put out this video, but I'm glad even my older stuff is still viewed as high quality. You just made my day. Thank you ☺️

Haha yes when i bought it it was 60 and then a week later it went down to 50
Now 70 dollars

Pete bro same..
I have a question, how is the board doing? Is it still in good condition, or has there been any significant damage in the last year?
I’ll probably get it and I will tell ya
Frøsted Sky how’s it holding up
Not well didn’t get it sorry
Dont go cheap unless your are just starting my first board was 150 I just bought one for 300 and there is a huge difference
Damon Hardy I was thinking of getting a ghost board but i’m a beginner, should I get something cheap first?

Do you still use the longboard? How is it still holding up?

This longboard is now 100- 120
Ikr I got it and it’s expensive asf
Dang it. I wanted one

It Would be very helpful if you Would answer.
Thank you
I have a cheap board and the wood is quite good
would you suggest buying this for a beginner interested mostly in dancing and small tricks
I would not recommend this board for tricks or dancing at all. Usually dancing boards are muuuch longer and smoother.
@@MarcTaraz can you please recommend a dancing board for a really tight budget

on the detail of product says aluminum trucks.
is that good or bad
grass weeds metal good plastic bad
They might have changed it in the past year or two
@@ercushkakulmetov7458 trucks should NEVER be plastic. And they shouldn't be alluminum neither unless it's a specific alloy.
I’m 12, on Tuesday I get my first longboard I got a 50$ cruiser board (the same shape as that one)
Any tips?
0Stormii good luck! Have fun and go fast 🤠
Bend your knees
Dont take your longboard to a skatepark it's a longboard not a skateboard take it to some big ass hills
literally what's the point of saying your age? i'm just curious why kids have the urge of mentioning it ((not intending to be rude btw :D
Hermione Cabiles ok
Good thing I already bought this. I decided I need a hobie so I thought I should try long boarding scince I moved down south and there are a lot of people who long board here. Thank you for the video
I had one of these ones from amazon it lasted me a long time rode Great and I still have it works fine
Thanks for the idea i was searching a lot far a good longboard
Never had a longboard so I got a $70 one from amazon, it had metal trucks and it’s super smooth and I love it so 🤷🏼♀️
Ooo could you link it below please
Wow the video quality and ur great fiilming i would never suspect u only got like 2k subs great job subbed

Atrix I just got it maybe 4-5 months ago and it was 60$ lol
people on amazon inflate their prices all the time once they see that something they sell got popular
ten toes is a really good amazon longboard brand
Ten Toes changed their name. I think they're Retrospec now.
LOL. That fucking song (Ticky Tacky - Birocratic). Thank you for introducing me to it. Great review too!

Its still holding up for me!
John Paul thx for taking the time to answer u really helped me understand since I’m new to all of this. Truly appreciated
How did it last after a long while?
Its held up pretty well!
It is one hundred and fifty dollars. Nonetheless, excellent video. Plus, just picked one up used for 40 bucks shipped so it works out.
It’s $59
Yo. If this is a beginner board...which is a pro board?
Do you think this board is to big for me. Im 5'3 feet
Nope I got one I’m 11 and has a 5 feet
they’re supposed to be really big, they arent for tricks just cruising
Does it slide well
How’s the durability of the board? The video is a few months old and I’m wondering if the board is still holding up?
Board's still good! No issues! But I haven't been riding as frequently
How long is the board
Hey where did you buy your old board ?
It was in the lost and found at my old job for 2 years and my boss said I could take it 😂
Marc Taraz Steiner do you know the name of the company by any chance ?
i mean if it doesn't break its fine as a longboard right?
So I have been longboarding for over a year and now my 10 year old daughter wants a longboard now so this year she gets one ..
Now I have a Santa Cruz which is all good and rides it too. So since buying one for that low price I feel alil safer knowing it's great for her to start out with a cheaper one than one I've $100 like mine, just it's shoes that's where I am like get any skate shoe haha
You pushed a lot when you did the video of you on the long board -The bearings probably aren’t that good...
They're not 😂 but hey. For the price, it is what it is
I loved the video! :)
Update on the board the trucks are made of aluminum metal now and more durable now starting at 70$
Hi, what type of longboard would you suggest for complete beginners?
This kind of board!
TwoBareFeet! I got the Larry 39" for 55£ It's amazing my first board :) Looks amazing too
My uncle gave me a pintail and it's like 40in long and I started when I was 9 tho it's all in the practice
Dude what did you use to record this vid?
Would this be good on kind of bad roads i live in a more rural town so everyone long boards because of the roads is this ok for that?
OMG YOU HAVE TO TELL ME THE SONGS NAME 1:27
Im trying to get it! I’m trying to get into long boarding cause I was trying my cousins the other day and I found it so fun I just have to save up. I don’t have lots of money🥶
You sure the trucks are plastic? i thought mine were, until I scratched them, but it was just a heavy polymer paint on metal trucks.
I bought a $100 one and it’s coming on friday
Got an update for us?
Updateeee
Jordan Sims sorry to keep u waiting but it’s an amazing board and I definitely and regret it
Where is the link for that?
In the description!
The zed has metal trucks
Hey it’s been I while I just copped a 40 inch longboard and was wondering if it’s fine for a beginner and if it was good for cruising
It def is!
Marc Taraz Steiner the longboard is a drop through is that still good
I have this board I got it has a gift and I havent fallen yet, and the only problem is the wheels if you hit a rock going 35 mph itll tear it a bit
Thanks man for this review
So like the deck is good but its parts are bad? Cause if thats the case i can just buy some new trucks and wheels right?
I’ve had mine for over 2 years and abused the hell out of it and it still rides nice
Im 5’2 should I get a smaller board?
Probably, unless you like longer boards. I'm 6"2 and sometimes this board is a lil big for me
Where did you buy this. Plz tell me I need a new skateboard- longboard.
Link is in the description!
That weeds intro though
I mean like plastic trucks what’s stopping you from changing it
Frøsted Sky I got it and the trucks are metal, you just can’t see unless you take off the wheels because there is a this plastic coating
what brand is it?
0:20 gotta flex that hair lmao
Try looking at the Tillys website they have the retrospec longboards that are on Amazon but for a better price and more variety!
the board is good for crusing but don't dare to do anything freestyle or tricks, it snapped at the tail in half
Is a 42 in longboard to big for someone who is 5 ft? Great review btw I’m thinking about buying this one!
I think it really comes down to personal preference!
Marc Taraz Steiner with your personal opinion do you think it would look odd like to big?
I have friends about your height who have even longer longboards, but you might want to look at a 38 inch!
Marc Taraz Steiner thank you so much for your help! I really appreciate having your opinion you are an amazing skater!! 😊
Song?
Big smoke -Birocratic
Ticky Tacky - Birocratic
Picked it up for $79.99 on Amazon. Thanks for the vid.
It’s $60 now, $52 if you buy it used
Board measurements?
Colles Video ich Kauf mir das auch ist es von der Qualität gut oder billig

Does anyone have any recommendations for better and cheap longboards that are good?
Great cinematography!

Would this be good for someone that’s 12? And about 4 ft 10 or 5 ft?
I got one and it lasted me two years, and it was my first one as well. I didn't take care of it and it took all my shit.
I wish Ohio had those streets and sidewalks they look so smooth
What are you talking about? Ohio doesn’t exist
Why dont u take the trucks off of your old one and put on new one
Fuck ya I’m getting this
