Arcade Skate Board for Kids 8-12 - 31' Skateboards for Beginners, Teens & Adults

Hi i just wanted to say how amazing this skateboard is for the price! I spent a long time doing car washes for 20 bucks and i was like I really want a skateboard so i went on this website and bought it! Now for my past birthdays I have been gifted pro skateboards that have costed 200 bucks AT LEAST and I enjoy them very much but they get worn down pretty fast. Thats 200 bucks down the drain in 2 months and I am a pro so I go through skateboards pretty dang fast. So after buying this Arcade brand skateboard I'm never buying a 200 buck skateboard ever again these do the job just as good as one of the expensive skateboards I defiantly recommend getting this if u have 20 bucks I'm always going to buy my skateboards from this brand now! have a good rest of you day and may jesus be with u at all times!

For being a starter skateboard for children, this is excellent quality. A year later, I have no issues with this. I bought this for my brother on his birthday, and he loves it!

Sent this to one of my granddaughters… She just got into skateboarding and loves the board … Sending it to a grandson, Next! Very well built!!

The blue and green graphics are beautiful. That’s what drew me to this board for my 9 year old granddaughter who is not into the monster skull type graphics on most boards. The board arrived quickly. The trucks were super tight, though. She wasn’t able to turn. We watched videos to learn how to loosen the trucks and discovered this board uses a different method than most. A skate tool is not enough. You need a 3/16 hex wrench too. But there was a defect in the board. To loosen enough to turn, made the whole truck fall out. I returned the board stating it had a defect. I was immediately approved for a free replacement. The new board seems more turnable, right away. There’s probably also some breaking in that is needed, which is hard for kids, easier for adults, weight wise. I also learned in comments that the wheels are for sidewalk, not street, if that matters to you. I think it’s a good entry for skateboarding because it’s a third of the price if you go to a skate shop, plus shops have limited graphics right now. But it’s frustrating for a beginner to not be able to turn easily and not know if it’s her or the board. The customer service regarding the return and replacement was quick and seamless.

We gave this to our nine year old grandson for his birthday just last week. Therefore I can not attest to how well it will hold up over time. However, I can say that our grandson loves it! The skate board seems very sturdy and well made. It seems to be easy to maneuver. It is attractive and appealed to our grandson.Only time and use will tell for sure, but as of now I feel like it was a good value for the money.

The media could not be loaded. Great beginner board. Decent bearings and wheels. Can’t beat the price. He is doing well and advancing at a good pace. He is trying basic drop-ins and turns. He loves the colors and overall look of the board. Perfect for 8 yr old, 85lbs, 58in tall, size 6 Vans sneaker. Just started skating with this arcade board. The board can hold an adult and an adult can skate on it. However, the board Is 31” long , 7 3/4” wide and it is a little small for an average adult. Definitely would recommend at least an 8 in or wider board for an adult for stability. Photos and videos taken after 4 weeks of use.

Bought my 1st Skateboard! I Love it! The quality is great <3

I bought this deck for my 13 year old. My first impression on unboxing it was that it was higher quality than I expected.In practice, the deck is a little more "flexible" than I'd like, but she's a lot smaller than me, so it's less of an issue for her. The grip tape is adequate. The trucks are generic, but functional. The wheels are soft - which she likes.The weak point of this complete are the berrings. They aren't "garbage", but they're not good, either. When she shifts her weight to kick the board STOPS. She is just starting out, so part of it is her technique, but I've been skating since the eighties, and I have a hard time keeping it going.Part of the skateboarding life is learning to swap parts to upgrade your board as you progress. This is definitely a good place to start, but you're going to want to do that sooner, rather than later.EDIT: I posted this review almost 3 weeks ago. Within a week, I had swapped the bearings. This helped a lot, but tonight I noticed she was still struggling to get momentum. She complained that the wheels were the problem. As an experiment, we swapped the wheels on my board (53mm, 101a Mini Logo) for the ones on hers (54mm, 95a Arcade). The difference was immediate, and drastic. I tried skating with the wheels from her board and... Just, no.My point is that less than a month after buying this $30 board, I have put another $50 in parts into it, and now have something that's actually ridable. Meanwhile, my $150 board is now rocking these crap wheels, but not for long.
