If you weigh 150 lbs or less and you are a beginner to intermediate, this board is a super value. If you weigh 180 or more, the flex will eventually weaken and break the layers of plywood. This was not the sellers fault. Hong Henry contacted me prior to the crack to see how the board was performing. I've never had a seller ask me for my opinion so that meant a lot. Next project; Home Depot for a 1' X 6" to slap these trucks on

For all the people saying it cracks on heavy people, I'm 6' 240 and haven't had any issues due to weight.
I've only had the board for a few days, but here are my comments:
+ Shipping was fairly quick.
+ The packaging for the board was a bit sloppy, but I suppose I can't complain because the board arrived undamaged.
+ The bottom decal looks high quality in person, as does the design on the grip tape.
+ The board functions properly; there are no defects that I noticed.
+ The board flexes quite a bit when I stand on it, more than I initially expected, but this appears to be normal based on the other reviews I've read.
+ The turning radius is quite a bit wider than I would like, but I suppose I'll get better at turning with practice, and adjusting the bearings is also an option from what I hear.
Overall, the product that I received met all of my expectations. I just hope it's durable enough to last for a year at least. I'll update this review if it ends up breaking in the near future.
I would definitely recommend this board to anyone who wants to get into long boarding but wants to keep their cost to start low. I will be replacing my bearings in the near future the ones the board came with are solid but after a few rides getting caught out in the rain the bearings aren’t quite as awesome as they once were, although no surprise there bearings don’t like getting stuff inside.
