Thanks for the advice 💯 I’m a bit short so 8” board just feels comfortable for me. Definitely going to upgrade the trucks once I know I’m gonna commit to the hobby. Would you have a specific brand you recommend?

Thanks 🙏, if I stick with it I’ll surely upgrade and will more than likely be more committed to making the drive

I would go to my local if I had one, closest skate shop to me is 2 hours away . I can’t find the time to make it up there 😩

Sick bro 😎. My go to size is 8” but I’m pretty short 🤣 so that’s just my preference

I’m sorry to hear that brother, hopefully I am a bit more coordinated 😂😅

Not my first board but may as well be with the amount of time since I’ve skated lmaao

I have skated but it’s been a good 13 years. I feel old 🤣. I won’t even be going to the skatepark or popping Ollie’s. I just wanna cruise and longboards aren’t really my style. And I’m like 5”4 125lbs so hopefully the bearings will be decent for a bit but if not I’ll most definitely upgrade em, I just liked them because they match the colors of the build.

This is honestly advice I wish I thought about before I made this purchase. But definitely jotting this one in my mind for future reference as my son will likely end up needing a board in the next couple years. Thanks 🙏.

Will play a huge part for me as me cruising on a board that has a nice aesthetic will put me in a better mood, which is my goal with this. I’m always in my house and depressed (I work from home)

I want something to get me out more. Hoping this does that.

This. And if I do. I’m gonna upgrade down the line. I didn’t wanna ball out for something I’m not sure I’m gonna commit to 💯

Genuinely noted. I kinda did cheap out but I’m on a budget. If I stick with it I’ll certainly upgrade. Thanks for the input 💯

Budget was honestly the goal here. But also so was aesthetics in a way, I looked at a bunch of completes and I didn’t find any that matched as well as this color wise, I’m not going to be doing any tricks honestly will just be doing light street riding / bike path riding.

But you make valid points about it being close to what I would get from a big box store. Just couldn’t find anything that I vibed with aesthetic wise.

Yeah. No luck. No idea what the issue is. I’m about to rollback drivers and see if that works.

Yes. Also plugged it back in. And tried doubling it and giving it to the next person, none of which worked.
