I'm planning on drawing on these. However I still want a proper undefected skateboard because I'll be selling to skaters. Are these worth it?

The boards I received were smooth and unblemished, perfect for artwork to be added.

In my opinion, there is definitely room for improvement. The trucks are pretty smooth for a while if you tweak them right, but overall are pretty standard and eventually become a little too unstable for higher speeds. So I'd say if you have the money to, buy the new trucks for the board (You'll have to eventually anyways). The rubber wheels on the board are certainly a pretty sweet ride if you like smoothness too!

I got them for zentangle, but I found them too rough to draw on. I coated them with white gesso, since they were not white, and it help some. It depends on what you are use to drawing on. I use Copics, and want a smooth surface. They are tough on the pen tips and will wear down Micron pen before it is empty.

Yes, the design is very good but be sure you get the correct board to use with it. Hope this is helpful.

You can pick up a used set for under 20 bucks which includes the shipping even. I can let you know how it works next week when my second set gets here. Better jump on them tho, i see the prices are fluctuating.

Yep. They're a bit small and certainly take some getting used to but they're accurate and work very well once you get them setup properly within the game. I use them for roll and use the xml route to set bindings which is a bit more complex than the in-game interface but it's more fully featured. 1 to 10, I'd give them a 6 or 7. There is much much better, but not for around a hundred bucks. Saitek's pedals are good too but they don't integrate with CH software which is one huge bonus for the whole CH line of gear. Good luck and see you in the verse.

@Austin the bearing were about the same quality as the reds bearings. Really the only difference was that they were yellow instead of red. Also the board came with yellow moranga wheels instead of yellow stims. Lastly, the bushings were garbage, but overall I like the board. It takes a little while to adjust to, but still good for tricks and pretty fun

They do have special goalie skates for roller hockey...look into those first, then decide if you think it's worth it to spend the extra cash on goalie design.

First, if you're just cruising, especially on a pintail, you don't want super reds. They're overpriced and you won't get going fast enough for them to be worth the money. I like zealous bearings, they last forever, they roll pretty well once you break them in, anf unlike Bones they're damn near water proof. Second these wheels are ok. Just ok. You get what you pay for with wheels and you're not paying much here. For cruising they'll be fine. Just know if you try to take a tight turn they have a tendency to slip out. And if you slide on them they'll skitter, or try to grip, or just act like they're made of ice. You never know, they're quite unpredictable. Also don't get a pintail. Yeah they look gorgeous, which is fine if that's what you like so go with it if you want (I'm just some guy on the Internet) but they're useless for anything besides cruising.

I do not know. They are not wheels you would see on a ramp/park skateboard. They are softer than those for sure. I am happy with them but you may want better bearings than the kind that came with them.

I don't know either, I was shopping for the best board I could find at a not-too-ridiculous price. This filled the bill for me, regardless of the origin. I'd suggest that if it matters very much to you, you should write the company and ask them about this contradiction. Then let us all know what they say!

No, they are really nice for the price. The kit comes with a pamphlet describing them in detail.I think for the price and quality, it is a good buy.

Well, it really all depends on how well you take care of them. If they are in perfect condition, I'd say go for it. If not, I'd say do not go for it. Because this beyblade will show no mercy, as it did in the Beyblade Metal Fury series, when it went up against the Legendary Bladers and their friends and almost destroyed them and the world.

Yes. They are an excellent quality skate with great performance and stability.

You are partly paying for brand, but they are freaking amazing. Well worth the 30 bucks, you might want to check some stores in your area though, sometime you can find better prices.

Honestly they're not bad and I liked them alot. It's like one of those with two rectangle Things to the side and one skinny rectangle painted yellow at the tip. So not much show but I found it to be both :D

I love mine. No buyers remorse or anything like that. One thing I would suggest would be to upgrade the build plate though as the acrylic plate warps. If you can design it in a 3D modeling program, you can print it (for the most part). So to answer your questions, Yes, imo, it is worth the money. I would imagine that you could build airsoft guns with this with mostly printed parts. Would still need springs and such like that though of course.
