Solid board. Stable. Unremarkable.
I think highly of this board. It seems like it would be great for down hill. The drop down deck has good stability and the contour of the board really holds your feet well. That said, the bushings equipped with this board are a little soft for a downhill board. I think that this board will really excel at bombing hills, but switching bushings might be advised.The deck is super thick and looks like it will last a long time (especially if you put some bumpers on the ends to protect the nose and tail.The artwork on the board is unimpressive and undesirable. I wish that they would have left it blank or been more minimalist with their choices. The grey camo idea feels unenlightened. Though, the grip tape patterns are really nice.Finally, I think that this is probably an excellent board. It feels really stable. It will be great for someone who is just learning, and it should do really well on hills. It is stiff and stable. This was undesirable to me because it made the board feel a little bit dead. Unless you are bombing hills, I would recommend finding a board with a little more life in it. All in all, good quality.

Excellent craftsmanship! For a great price!
I got the 42'' on a really good deal. That being said it would've been worth the full price.It is a phenomenal board, phenomenal.Here are some specifics:1.) Board has excellent craftsmanship2.) The wheels have a lot of grip (this can be a good thing or bad thing depending on your preference.)4.) The grip tape has lots of grip, similar to a regular skateboard. At first I didn't like this, but now I have grown accustomed and prefer the strong grip.3.) The board is large and heavy (Once again this depends on preference)4.) Board has nice curves and bends to the deck. This provides excellent balance to your stance.5.) Board has an excellent design. Beautiful maple trim and the grip tape has streaks showing the maple underneath.

Great deal for a freestyle longboard
Really nice board. Easy to ride. Fast and controlled. I can slide this board because the wheels aren’t as wide as our other boards. The 42” is perfect for my 5’9” 170lb body. The only thing that I have to complain about is that it is so low that it scrapes when I leave my driveway. The drop down board with drop through trucks really makes a nice ride. I was cross shipping this with the switchblade by landyachtz and I got this one because its cheaper I figured I might have to upgrade it, but right out of the box it is perfect for me.

Over 40....1st time skater.
Bought this to skate with my 12yr old. I expected to embarrass myself, but astonishingly this board is ridiculously easy to ride. I often have to sit and wait for him to catch up.

Love This Board
Been riding the hell out of this board since I got it. I put some harder bushings on the board side and upgraded the wheels to 80mm Kegels and this thing rides SWEET. I'm 6'2" with size 13 shoes and this board locks me in tight. My new favorite in the quiver!It is heavy, so keep that in mind if using for a commuter you'll need to carry.

Best skate buy on Amazon
Board rides like a dream. Best buy for your money. I was sceptical about the deal I got but now i wish i would have bought 2.

Easy to ride, great for taller riders
This longboard complete is much more reasonably priced on Amazon than anywhere else. I’m on the tall side (6”1’) and the extra long deck is the perfect size. The board shape is very comfortable and easy to ride and I love the feel of the Rayne wheels. I switched out the bearings for Bones Super Reds so I can’t speak to the default bearings, but I’m absolutely enjoying this board and would recommend it
