    I’m 31 and just started learning to skate for the first time after grabbing a board like this at Walmart. I really struggled to get any distance while practicing basic pushing. It just doesn’t want to roll! Now I know it’s not just a me problem:)

    Hey Kody! Thanks for reminding folks to clean up their world around them. I am sure with a cheap set of ABEC 7's or so that board would have been much better, it is as you said a 15-dollar board. One of my longboards has the Sunset LED wheels. They sure look neat at night, but each wheel is a mini generator to power up the LED's, and the drag is very noticeable. Thank you for posting your down to Earth clips. As always the sounds are fun!

    Thank you for doing this video 🙏🏼 I bought one being an ignorant consumer thinking “oh if it’s Tony Hawk it has to be good” at least to start. After watching a bunch of videos on here and trying to start I just concluded that I sucked at skateboarding and got a longboard instead 🛹 Now I feel better and will go get a board and try again! (Haven’t skateboarded since I was like 7 lol) Thank you!
  • The way this gentleman goes through the review the way he does kept me locked on and having a great time. Very good content!

    Picked up this same board as my first skateboard and ordered new bearings and wheels a day later. I havent noticed any cracks yet but im already having buyers remorse :/

    But imagine how well they’ll be at riding a real skateboard after practicing with this lmao

    My daughter wants to learn to skate after cruising on a penny. I legit just bought the $15 one with the plastic trucks just for a cheap board. I’m putting my old tensor trucks with the abec 5 and old spitfire wheels. It’ll be good for a learner. But besides how crappy all the parts are, I was let down even more by the fact that the hawk outsourced it to China 😢 what a let down

    i just started skating, i am practicing on this tony hawk board, and it works pretty well for me, and it does move pretty fast, i think you may have gotten a messed up one.

    So I tried to get into skateboarding recently and thought that I was just terrible and doing something wrong because I could not for the love of god even get across a parking lot without kicking 20+ times. I’m so glad I found this video and discovered it’s the board. I bought a Tony hawk signature series thinking it was going to be a good starter board. Because, you know, Tony Hawk.
  • I just got a Tony Hawk Signature Series board as my first board today. It barely moved, just like yours, but once I loosened the wheels it worked just fine.

    I wish I would’ve watched this before I bought one
  • @savagedragn
    Link to your other review please? That would be a good addition to the description. I’m looking to get a skateboard for my 14 year old. This was a nice video to come across. Thanks!

    The best thing for parents to do IMO is to hop on FB market place and buy a used complete and just crank the wheels down a bit. You can lysol it down to disinfect it (just not in the bearings). You can spray paint over the graphic and regrip it depending on how used it is. Never focus your boards, just take it apart and pass it on
  • @kaicein
    Me Rn: it’s okay mom I’ll just learn with my Walmart board at home not in public 🌝
  • @locayque
    Wow! Thanks for the video I just bought one of this board for my granddaughter, going back tomorrow and get back my money
  • Found one in the trash. Changed out the bushings, bearings and wheels with quality ones that have been replaced with better in my own boards. Its a fact all thats gotta go by the time you upgrade it to make it ridable youve spent 50 dollars or more. After that it turned out decent. Took it to a park to try it out. Dropped in on a 5ft half and a 3 ft quarter and most of the obstacles there and all is still good so far. I had to replace everything that matters on this thing to make it righteous only the deck and the aluminum parts of the trucks remain. I used old parts to upgrade so this one didn't cost me anything. After seeing the quality in the hardware I'd never pay for one of these. Your better of getting a 40 or 50 dollar board for a beginner.
