Ridge Retro Mini Cruiser Board - UK Manufactured

I live in the UK and I was into pennyboarding when I was in my teens. Just got back into it at 30 and I was looking for a good board to start back up on. I was heavily into longboarding back in my teens so I like to think I know a few things that might help a first time buyer. So Ill break things down a bit, but off the bat, its a fantastic deck.The deck itself is of good construction, if you havent used or really seen a penny style board before then its probably a surprise that there is a lot of flexibility in the these kind of boards, they tend to bow in the middle a bit when skating, but this is normal. If youre just getting into pennyboarding this deck at 22" may seem a bit small but they are fantastic once youve got your head around them, So stick with the challengeThe wheels are pretty good too, they seem to be made of a fairly decent material. I think its rubber like the discription says rather than the more popular urethane or polyurethana wheels that are more common with other skateboards. None the less, the wheels are decent and can take on most surfaces.The ABECs are listed as 7s and its the first thing I checked when the board arrived, and I can confirm they are 7s and theyre pretty decent ones at that. Theyve got a good coast on them and you probably wont want anything less than 7s on this kind of board anyway. This maybe something that you would want to upgrade in the future but out of the bag, they are more than good enough.The trucks are on par with everything else on the board, well made and I personally havent been dissapointed with the board at all.I wouldnt change anything about this board out of the box. Everything is well made and if its pulling in one direction thats an easy home fix and nothing that a warm cup of tea and a youtube how to video cannot solve. This board is great if youre breaking into this kind of boarding and is a great platform for modding in the future if you so wish to.Hang loose man.Jay

Very well made, and super sturdy. My daughter loves it.

Good value for money how ever bit small for adult with size 9s or above Id reccomend the next size up.Hard wearing I put some real down force in the middle and it didnt snap.Claims to have decent bearings in but I found they slowed up in less than a day and dont spin all that great would recommend getting some bones redz like I did makes it a whole new board.Got me to work and back and faster than walking.Would not recommend to beginners as its quite small so not much room for error on leaning too far back or forwards, get the next size up. Even with the bigger wheels any stones that were to big could send me flying so smooth roads only

I bought this for physiotherapy sessions following a total knee replacement. This skateboard has helped me achieve much greater bending of my new knee. Perfect

I wanted a skateboard for my 11 year old son. I wanted one that was good enough quality to do some fun skateboarding - but given I wasn't sure how keen he'd be I didn't want to spend too much. This Ridge Skateboard is great quality and excellent value for money. It's robust enough to last for a reasonable amount of time. The wheels and bearing run smoothly and quietly. He seems to think it's pretty cool and friends with the large (expensive) wood boards have said they'd like to get one. It's good for getting about the park and using at a local skatepark - though it's not designed for doing tricks.

I just received it and I love it already.

I refrained from writing a review so i could properly test the board's longevity. I ordered this board December last year, i've thoroughly used this board throughout days of radiant sunshine and days of abysmal rain. And it's excelled through both instances. From getting the board to shredding down some hills takes no time, prior to this board i was not skating inclined in any way, however this board has changed me. The learning curve on this board is incredibly fast, it's stable and forgiving and just a joy to use. If you're wondering how much the deck flexes, well it's a lot. Don't get me wrong it's a good thing and i like it, it acts as a little shock absorber. So sixth months down the line (with using the board every day) it is still functioning brilliantly, arguably better know because as you use the board the trucks will naturally loosen (this is a good thing) and now it turns so much sharper and easier. Brilliant and lasting quality, a must buy for someone who's looking for some major fun without breaking the bank.Have fun!

It's a great skate board, it has loads of colour options, it's really easy to use and you can turn on it really well! But, my friend and I both got a board like this, and she got hers for £20, from another seller, but it had worse reviews, so I got this one. They seem to be exactly the same, and have lasted just as long as each other... But otherwise, it's really great and worth it!

Ho acquistato il prodotto con la dicitura “non disponibile”. Dopo pochi giorni Il prodotto è stato spedito. Venditore super. Davvero un bellissimo prodotto, sia nel design che per le caratteristiche tecniche. A mia figlia di 8 anni è piaciuto tantissimo. Lo uso anche io. Davvero consigliatissimo.

Ottimo prodotto

È il mio primo skate, quindi la mia recensione potrebbe non rendere effettivamente la qualità del prodotto. La plastica mi sembra molto robusta, si flette (è normale su skate ti questo tipo) il giusto! Le ruote sono abbastanza morbide quindi riesce a "copiare" bene anche le asperità del terreno piu grosse. Ho dovuto allentare solo il dado un po di una ruota... mi sembra che per iniziare vada più che bene.N.B. spedizione (a carico di sda) pessima, è rimasto in deposito a Firenze per 3 giorni, il 4' mi sono fatto forza e sono andato a prenderlo altrimenti sarebbe ancora li, probabilmente.

Awesome! I use it every day. very smooth to ride. Overall very good quality for the price
