Purchased this for my son. He's a beginner so I checked other reviews first. Previous reviewers were correct in stating that the board is well built and durable. The grip is well made and the wheels make for a smooth ride (according to my son). Not sure why they chose white wheels for this board because after an afternoon of skateboarding with friends, my son's wheels are no longer white. Minor issue tho since we could always change them later. He actually said he hated using his friend's skateboard now because he loves his so much (I think his friend does too!). I was a bit concerned about the price. I didn't want to purchase a board that was "cheap". While it is inexpensive, it isn't cheap!

This was my first board and something I consider to have been a really good buy as far as quality and durability.

But I do regret buying this board and not spending extra money and buying a decent one.

The deck has little to no pop. Good luck getting ollies over 10 inches.
Bearings are good for the first few weeks but 3 broke after that. Had to replace them with Bones Reds (which are awesome btw)
Grip is SUPER GRIPPY and I wish the same grip was available separately. The only company I would skate over it is AmGrip.
Wheels are super hard.
This board is meant for cruising and for basic park tricks. Really a beginners board.

Trust me though, if you want to get you or your kid into skating and want him to CONTINUE it and be good at it, you should buy all parts of a board separately and just setup your own. Completes are never worth it, especially $40 ones from Amazon.

Good board overall. 4/5 because of bearing replacement coming so soon and because of low pop.

Im new to skateboarding and bought this one as my first real skateboard. I got it today in the mail (on time) and took it for a test ride and here's what i think so far:

1: Deck itself is a good, sturdy deck, a little bit on the heavier side but i think that's mostly due to the decks.
2: The trucks are decent but a bit loose. I got minor wheel bite. But tightening them should fix it.
3: The wheels are Polyurethane and not plastic like walmart boards.
4: The bearings aren't the best, when i took it out of the box the nut was tightened too tight and prevented them from spinning, a skateboard tool would be handy. But even when loosening the nut, the wheels didn't spin for more than 5 seconds, when i rode it i got a good 10-15 feet per kick.
5: The grip tape has amazing grip but peels a bit easy so it may have to be replaced later on.
6: The graphic also peels a bit easy but since its in the bottom it shouldn't be too much of a bother, it also comes with riser 1/8" hardware.

In general it's an overall decent board for begginers. A lot better than walmart boards in my opinion. Sturdy deck and decent trucks, bearings and wheels. I'm new to skateboarding so in my opinion it's a good starter board but if you're not new to skateboarding like me, i suggest getting a better quality board or if yoy decide to get this one you'll have to change the bearings and grip tape eventually.

One thing i didn't like was that one of the bearings was an ABEC 7 and from a different brand (the rest were Krown ABEC 9s).

And yes, this IS a KROWN skateboard.
I also posted a review video on YouTube for those who want a verbal honest opinion/review, its not the best but at least there's a review on this board now!

For under $40 the board rolls great. Made in china, almost of course. I'd planned to get an SCSK8 board assembled in the US and let the kid cover it in his own stickers. He SOOOOO loved the graphics on this I relented but will probably get the SCSK8 for me to ride with him. Anyhow, this board has VERY stiff bushings so it's tough for my 6yr olds 70lbs of body to turn it until we both loosened the nut ~and~ I put my extra 100lbs of weight on the bushings to start loosening them up. If you like a board the turns tight circles you'll probably have to change out the bushings though we'll see if these break in better. We tightened the wheels up a bit to help my tall 6 year old learn his balance. The wheels have a very light 'banded' texture to them- I'd expect they'd be smooth. I expect it will wear off quickly, though. The board has a pronounced curve to the center, presumably to aid doing flips. It doesn't seem to inhibit his ability to feel comfortable finding his footing and probably helps him be able to get it to turn due to the extra leverage. The tape is grippy- doesn't feel overly so but I haven't ridden a skateboard like this in 25 years, so what do I know about rating grip tape? =D

Board was delivered well-before the scheduled delivery date (and this was during the Christmas season, mind you)! Came as-promised and looks sharp. Daughter has been 'abusing' it since then and ABSOLUTELY loves it! Appears to be sturdy, quite manageable (daughter's input, not mine) and she is thrilled. I was even thinking of hopping on it and giving it a try... NOT! She's happy, I happy! Kudos!
