The pintail design that has been adopted for this deck is very popular among long boarders. The deck measures 9 x 43-Inch. To help you avoid wheel bites, Krown has also been nice enough to add wheel cutouts to the deck.

I received the board in excellent condition, right on time. It absolutely needs to have its trucks loosened before it can be ridden at all, and I highly recommend buying new bearings (I got Bones Reds for $13 right here on Amazon) with it so you can change the bearings right away. The ones it comes with don't allow the wheels to turn very well. Aside from that, it's great for the price. Probably not a forever board, but if you don't know if you want to stick with longboarding or you just can't front the money for a better board, go for it. You'll have fun no matter what you're riding, just make sure it's safe first.

The kids are having fun and it's a good starter board. The wheels aren't very fast, actually kind of stiff at first. We took the wheels off and oiled the bairings to try and make them faster. My son has had his board for a month and it has loosened up making sharper turns and runs faster. He is ready to modify it already so it will go faster and carve/turn harder.

Okay lets start with the only pros i can think of: the board has a sweet design and is very cheap. as for the cons, the trucks aren't the best. Although they are okay for carving, the second you go down a hill the board gets extremely bad speed wobbles. Also the wheels and bearings that the board comes with are both bad. Do not buy this board, save up for something better.
