Drop Down Longboard Deck - Bamboo Maple Hybrid - 8 x 40

Nice board and nearal.

I love the strength and flex it has, mine was slightly and I mean ever so slightly uneven. Its not even noticeable now that I gripped it though. 2 days in its a nice board. Update: 6 months later, it's still riding well! The board has my groove in it, rides super low extremely stable. It doesn't turn very well because of the length and depth. Otherwise, very fun commuter. Good product.

This board is exactly what I have been looking for! A drop through long board and tilted truck mounting and plus bamboo. But I really wished the bottom of the deck was bamboo too. If you planning to get this deck I recommend having either really tall trucks, Big wheels (90mm or bigger) or at least 1.5 - 2 inches of spacers for the trucks cause for me at least it’s really low. I have Gullwing Sidewinders with 1/2 inch spacers and 97mm wheels and it only gives me 3.5 inches of clearance and sags about half an inch whit me on it (215 lbs). I guess it’s okay if your just using it for smooth down hill roads but if you using it for the street with bumpy pavement it’s kinda sketchy but I’m loving it.

I'll start off my review by saying this is not what I had expected. At the end I'll make a pros-and-cons list. I've been longboarding for several years and I'm very much into the hobby. I was expecting this board to give me some kind of uniquely smooth ride, but in the end with my setup it ended up restricting my turning more than anything else. The trucks I was using were a large part of that. I absolutely cannot recommend this board to anyone who doesn't use reverse kingpin trucks i.e. trucks where the bolt is on the outside and the pivot point is on the inside. Any normal truck is going to struggle to get any kind of turning out of this deck. I use Sidewinder II's from Gullwing. I'm not exaggerating when I say on my normal setup I scrape the edges of my board on the ground turning with these trucks. On this deck with those trucks, I was barely able to turn 10 degrees in either direction, before the wheels lifted off the ground.Pros-the deck is absolutely beautiful. Pictures do not do it justice.-it would make a great downhill board if you use regular trucks because of how much it restricts turning it would make speed wobbles non-existent.-it has a small bit of flex but it feels really sturdy.Cons-practically unusable if you want any kind of turning unless you use reverse kingpin trucks-you will need either very tall trucks, very tall wheels, for an excessive amount of risers or else you risk scraping the ground by simply rolling straight.Conclusion: this deck is wonderful for a *very specific group of people.* Anyone else will not enjoy this deck. I intend to return or exchange it, and will update my review to include how customer support handled this caseUpdate: customer service responded to me the day after I contacted them. they said they couldn't accept a return on an item that has been used, and I understand why, but they gave me a partial refund as a show of good faith. I thought from these guys before they have great stuff, they have great customer service. I can't recommend this particular deck but I do recommend buying from this seller

The whole board was uneaten and crooked and the holes were off center and crooked as well.

I'm very happy with the decision to buy this quality deck at such a reasonable price! I used the deck for an all terrain electric board build, and considering how much work had to go into the project, I wanted a deck that would do the job, save me money and give me the confidence in it's quality --which it has. I highly recommend this item. I'm planning on building another eBoard and plan on purchasing it again.

I’ve had my deck for many months now it’s good quality and has flex but the angle of the spot where the trucks are mounted makes turning very difficult with my small wheels and it scrapes sometimes but I do think bigger wheels would solve my issue the deck is also pretty skinny so if you have big feet it can be sketchy
