MagnetoLongboards Bamboo Longboards for Cruising, Carving, Free-Style, Downhill and Dancing (Bamboo Drop & Fiberglass Through Longboard)

Super smooth ride you will pick up speed fast, nice ultra low deck is also super flexible. Great value for the money, cool design very aesthetic feels very sturdy.

This longboard is super easy to ride! Maybe that is just the nature of longboards, but I am a true beginner and I found it very easy to push and turn the board.PROS:- Riding on rough asphalt is nice and smooth. You can still pick up speed pretty easily and the wheels absorb a lot of the shock from the road.- The grip on the deck is good and not too grabby.- The design of the board is top notch.- The bearings seem to be pretty good.CONS:- The trucks are really loose out of the box. I tightened them and they still have a lot of play in them. I’ll try tightening them all the way and see if that helps.- The kicks are relatively small. If you are new to longboards(like me), it will seem like you need a good amount of force to kick the board up. Definitely not as easy as a regular skateboard.All in all, this is a pretty good board for a beginner. You will automatically feel confident after hopping on the board for the first time and rolling without falling off the board. On a side note the deck has plenty of flex. I’m 215lbs and get a lot of flex from the deck. My daughter is about 75lbs and only gets a little flex from the board. But it is probably still enough flex to carve effectively. Final evaluation:The board is worth buying. You’ll be pleased.

I have owned a half dozen longboards used to commute to school and work by board. I once worked for a skateshop and have tried many longboards. The Sector 9 Cosmic boards (flexy, fiberglass boards) have been my ride of choice for 15 years or so... until now. The Magneto is now my ride!I bought my son the 38.5" "carving" Magneto board. I tried it out and enjoyed it so much I bought the 42". While I like the 38.5", I'd instead recommend the 42" because it is just as maneuverable, has small kick-tails, and has a better overall feel. I'm a pretty big guy, my son is about 90 lbs, and my daughter is about 60 lbs. We all can ride the 38.5" or 42".Pros:- Great for carving!- Smooth ride. The flex in the fiberglass really reduces road vibration!- Stable. The lower center of gravity and the firm/slightly flexy surface makes for a secure feeling surface at high speeds.- Can handle tight turns (if you have the balance)- Nice look and hand-feel of the sanded grip. It also doesn't scrape up your clothes so much while carrying the board. I was not sure how I felt about not having grip tape... now I really like it!- Wheels, trucks, and bearings seem great to me. I'm not going to bother replacing them as the gains would only be minor if any.- Strong. I can jump on the board without feeling like it'll break.- The price is really reasonable for a premium quality boardCons- I would like a longer kicktail. I use the kicktail on tight turns or while turning while going slow.- It seems to get dings in it easier than my son's cheaper hardwood board. That said, I know they are all going to get beat up with use!

I bought this for my 15yr old son for Christmas, and he absolutely loved it. Christmas morning we ran outside and had to try it out. Everyone took turns and we all loved how low the board rides and the smoothness of the wheels. Great glide and maneuverability made carving so much fun. Even on slide down grades this board just wants to GO. Material quality is fantastic. Craftmanship is high quality. Another nice longboard by Magneto. Nicely done.

I would of given this 5 stars, but before I purchased this product I reached out to the seller to ask about the bearings. I wanted to know if they were those cheap ones that need replacement as soon as you buy. They assured me they were great.Yhey weren't, I did have to purchase bearings separately because the factory bearings were awful. As far as everything else board is great and the wheels are nice. Nice board.

Got this in January and it's April now. (I'm not a paid sponsor for this item but I love it) It's durable, easy to ride if you like bamboo, it turns very well, it's loose, kind of fast turns and it feels honestly amazing. Magneto boards always outdoes themselves

This is a great first longboard, especially for the money. The bearings aren’t the best, but work fine. I will probably replace the bearings soon.The wheels are big, but could be a little bigger. Occasionally the wheels get caught on sharp little rocks in the parking lot, the board comes to a sudden stop, and then I get thrown forward. Most of the time I catch myself but one time I fell and broke the screen on my phone. Oh well- that’s skateboarding I guess. Fortunately Amazon also sold me a replacement phone screen as well. So Amazon giveth, and Amazon taketh away. What a wonderful time to be alive.
