    Well it is rather inexpensive which is good. Powell still makes most boards in the USA- i thought, but this one is made in China. But some china boards are ok. The wheels are probably ok. The only thing is the trucks. Its a shame that the trucks arn't a nice name brand since you will likely keep your trucks for a while and switch out the deck eventually, the bearings, and wheels. It isn't the best but will certainly be fine for a first time skater. Enjoy the new board!

    I've be aware of some lovely good skate boarders and so they do not bother buying whatever high priced for the reason that excellent skate borders break their boards. If you happen to plan on doing that go to target and get whatever low cost, it's most of the time all of the equal, except you've got the cash. A girl board (its a organization) with black magic grip. Wheels thats all up to you there are a couple of distinct forms, 52MM are just right for street skating. Ask any individual at a skate shop what the would propose for a brand new skater. Ensure they alter the screws on the trunks to the best way you need them, they help determine how easy the board moves . Have fun.

    it is fine for a beginner. as you get better you can buy different and better ones. however, do not, buy a skateboard from walmart.
