Alameda Skateboard Complete | Canadian Maple Wood Deck w/ 5.5 Inch Aluminum Alloy Trucks for Commuting, Cruising, Carving & Downhill Riding

I should’ve gotten the 8” instead but it’s a a decent deck for the price.Only complaint is that a bearing already snapped after being ridden maybe 3 times in less than two days.

Kiddo really like it!

If you’re looking for a solid beginner board, this is good. Pretty smooth.

Okay this is the probably one one the only reviews that has not been done by a dad or a mom saying it’s a good thing for their kids. (No offense to them of course). I’ve been skating for a good half a year and this board was my first board I’ve ever owned and it was amazing. I expected for it to be like the average cheap complete, brittle board, griptape that looked like it has sand hand-sprinkled on it, and plastic bearings, but I was completely wrong. Perfect weight, metal trucks, perfect grip, and surprisingly great bearings was what I was greeted by and I was wowed. I learned my first ollie on mine and also the shuvit and FS 180 and after a while my friend gave me one of his old Chocolate boards to me. I gave my old Retrospect to one of my friends who was looking to get into skateboarding and he also learned his first set of tricks on it as well. Of course after a long time the board did meet its demise after months of love which the plys started to separate, but that was well respectable for an amazing quality budget board. I currently run a Baker setup but if I ever need a spare board or just a little feeling of nostalgia, I’m for sure buying one of these again.

good

First off, for the price this is a pretty decent entry board. It can be used as sort of a tester to see if you're interested in skateboarding I guess. If you ride a solid deck with nice trucks and wheels, you're definitely going to realize how cheap this board is though. In fact, the kingpin nuts are so cheap that adjusting them very quickly strips them. After a few days of riding I replaced the bearings and wheels and it made a big difference, but the board still feels cheap. So far the deck itself hasn't damaged easily which is a plus. Overall it's a bit meh, I'd say if you're sure you want to pursue skateboarding this will be a waste of money after a couple weeks. Build your own or invest in a good complete, and it will help you in the long run.

The skateboard is very sturdy and it's great for beginners! It's worth the money.

It’s a good skateboard for its price. It helped me start out. I learned my first all the way on it but it’s not even a real board side and I snapped it.

Hasta ahora todo bien, fue la única tabla armada de 8'' que pude encontrar en Amazon. Las demás son de 7.5'' o 7.75'' muy delgadas para mi gusto.De preferencia revisa los trucks y haz los ajustes necesarios antes de patinar, en mi caso tuve que apretarlos un poco ya que con mi peso (80kg) al inclinarme para girar la tabla rosaba con las llantas.

Easily chipped and scratched through the exterior (Far easier than a less expensive skateboard we bought a month ago). Annoying squeak coming out of the trucks; saw a fix for this on Youtube but you'd think a company would handle that 10 minute fix job BEFORE mailing it out. Used it 3 times and will try to return. Calling customer service leads to a full voicemail box which took my review from a 2 to a 1.

Hasta el momento funcionando bien, se ve resistente, la compré para mi hijo de 11 años y está feliz. Tiene un material anti deslizante en la parte superior y el dibujo inferior es de buena calidad.

Description says ABEC 11 bearings but it came with ABEC 7s. My son chose this scooter because he wanted better bearings. Looking into having this fixed in some way. Very disappointed that this company would be deceiving like this and assume people wouldn’t notice.

It is perfect. My little one is happy as all can be. Had a small scratch on it but didn't matter
