Mini Cruisers

I've been getting back into skating over the past year or so, from a 30-year break. I'm probably too fat and old to be doing this, but I LOVE skating, and want to just ride. I've recently bought a few popsicle boards, an old school fish tail, and the re-issue of my first good board, the Santa Cruz Rob Roskopp face board with Independent trucks, slimeball wheels and Bones Reds. I also got a longboard. I've bought REALLY cheap stuff and really good stuff. Off brand trucks, wheels and bearings. And no name completes. You can really tell the difference between the cheap stuff and the good stuff. The flex in the cheaper decks compared to the better stuff is REALLY obvious! But the difference between the good stuff and the best, well it gets harder to tell. I have a CCS complete that cost like $80 that feels just as good as the Roskopp with Indys, or any other $150+ complete. Also, I have a Cal-7 complete that was like $40 that I was REALLY impressed with. I bought this Magneto mini cruiser, because I liked the Tiki style. And it's all black. It is AWESOME! The deck is firm enough to hold me (I'm about 250 lbs). The wheels are soft large cruisers. The bearings spin good. And it has very good trucks. If I had to complain about it, I'd say that the cut outs for the wheels could be smoother. No big deal. The Tiki graphic is applied well and is smooth. The bushings in the trucks are pretty stiff. I'll probably change them out, but I'll still ride it more to see if they will break in. I don't know if I'd complain about the grip tape or not. It's clear so the M stands out. The rest of the top of the deck is just black. It's not as grippy as Mobb or other good black grip tape out there. But for just cruising around, it's good enough. I don't feel that I'll slip off. And it is kind of better to ride this tape when barefoot. Other than that, this is a great board for taking to the beach, or just riding around town. It's about the length of a normal board. About 30 inches. And maybe 7 inches wide at the widest point. But the nose and tail are shorter than a regular board. The concave feels really good. I'm happy with it!

This was a great skateboard. I love how sturdy this is and also the small size. Although I’m no beginner I can tell that this is a great board for beginners. Especially smaller children with smaller feet. The wheels are nice cruising wheels and the trucks are nice and stiff. I love the wheel wells, I can ride with no wheel bite and not have to ride on risers. I also like the different paint options (of which I chose light bulb) and the clear grip tape is a nice touch. The trucks have a refined look of black trucks to white rubber grommets. All around this is a great board. Only improvement I can think of is to buy new bearings for it, the Abec 11 bearings are ok but a nice pair of reds makes the whole experience a lot better. Also inside the wheels are these steel washers in between the bearings, and all they do is make noise so I removed those and it made the ride more enjoyable.

Let me first start by saying that I am a longboard fanatic, I have purchased plenty of longboards in the past and almost all of my purchases have been off of Amazon (www.amazon.com). So I will like to tell you about my most recent purchase and it was definitely a SCORE! I think I will stick with the Magneto brand due to the fact that they make awesome boards, the ride smooth, the style is sleek and effectively catches eyes. I even had an incident when one of my boards got ran over and besides a slight crack in the deck the board was still intact. I once purchased a longboard off of Facebook and it must have been nice because someone stole it from my front porch. Sad situation. I got this particular board on sale for $40 bucks. Its light weight, durable and the perfect size for my commute. I love it and I would definitely suggest this longboard to anyone else who enjoys longboarding.

I purchased this board a few weeks ago and have enjoyed skating on it. As my first cruiser board, I was looking for something that wasn't going to break the bank, but was still good quality. Overall, I am very happy with the board so far and would recommend it for a beginner skateboarder or someone who's looking to get a decent cruiser for a good price. It's also very nice that a skate key is included. There are a few things I wish I knew when looking into what board to get, so I'll break down the components into further detail to hopefully help you in your purchase decision. Deck According to the manufacture website, the deck is made of 7-ply Canadian maple and has a stiff flex. Despite the specifications listed on the website, this deck is 28" long and has a 14.5" wheel base (distance in between the trucks). The thickest section of the board measures 7.75" wide, measures 6.5" at the wheels, and has a 6" kicktail. Being on the smaller side, this board is very portable. The board comes with a spray-on grip tape. I personally am not a fan of how this feels (or looks). It's too bumpy for my liking and you can feel the roughness through your shoes. I ended up sanding it down and applying a more traditional grip tape. This was very cheap and easy to do. Trucks The trucks are pretty decent on this board. They come with a 1/8" riser and medium stiffness bushings. These are adjustable to your liking. The trucks are on the taller side (around 55mm), so I have not experienced wheelbite at all on this board. The axle width measured in at 7.5" and the hanger measured at 125mm. The wheels do stick out a little bit because the deck is more narrow where the wheels are. Wheels and Bearings The wheels are about 62mm in diameter and 51mm wide. They have no problem moving over cracks or small rocks. They have a square shape, so they grip the ground well. I only have 2 complaints about these wheels. They all seem to be a slightly uneven, so they wobbly a little bit. Not a big deal when riding slower, but you start to feel a unstable when you pick up speed. Another thing is the bearings. They are very uneven (some spin for quite some time while others barely spin at all). You can probably apply some bearing grease to loosen them up, but I just replaced them and it made a big difference. One other note, the wheels did come with spacers, although mine only had 4 washers instead of 8. Not a huge deal, just keep the wheels slightly loose and its no problem. All in all, I am happy with this board. All the downsides I found are not deal breakers at all, and they have cheap and easy fixes if they are an issue for you. I would definitely recommend this board for anyone looking for a cruiser board under $100. I hope this review helped! Happy skating!

لم يأتي مثل الذي في الصوره

I like this board, it feels sturdy and comfortable to ride. The tail is a bit small in my opinion, and the bearings could be better. 8/10.

Well built, bought it for my daughter who has never been on a skateboard and she was out and about just like that. Highly recommend it.

Width was smaller than I expected, however overall the quality for a board this price is excellent. Already took it out and hasn't had any issues with the bearings or board itself.

Super buena le doy 5 estrellas ma tienes en cuenta que cambiarle los bearing (yo le puse reds y la tabla vuela)
