Elos Mini Cruiser Skateboards Gifts for Teen Boys, Men, Beginner, Adult, Kids - Lightweight, Portable & Durable Wooden Commuter Cruiserboard Longboard. DIY Gift Box kit, Build it Yourself Skate Board

I needed something to ride to keep up with my little boy on his bike - I broke my hand at work last year and gripping the handlebars on my bike really hurts. I'm still learning but the videos made it really easy and I'm getting more confident every day. Still not keeping up with the kiddo but I hope to be cruising very soon. Beautiful woodwork. Nice big cushy wheels. I wear my helmet and wrist guards every time as I'm very clumsy even without wheels! I haven't fallen yet but I bet I still look very awkward and goofy. With practice I think this is going to be great. It's also very fun! I'm really glad I bought this and not a cheaper knock-off. I feel like the quality is exceptional!

Very high quality skateboard. I was debating to get the eggboard or this, and thought that this would be worth the extra price for the quality especially because of safety concerns. I am glad I chose this. I really enjoy the handles for carrying around, it is very convenient. For beginners, it is best to try on pavement that is not completely smooth but it also cannot be too uneven. I was excited to try it right away I barely read all the packaging that came with it but there are many helpful instructions and even how to obtain a 1 year warranty from purchase. If you have very large feet, it may be difficult to learn as a beginner. I am a average height female and I think it is near a perfect fit for me.

I finally took the plunge and bought this board once it went on sale. It had been on my wish list for a couple of years. I love that it's great for beginners that have zero experience with skateboarding. It feels pretty stable, and I get a little bit better and more confident every time I take it out. I highly recommend wearing all the protective gear, and just practicing on a basketball court or empty parking lot. I found it highly useful and helpful to watch the Elos tutorials, as well as YouTube tutorials for the absolute beginner. My elbow pads, knee pads and wrist guards just came in today, and I can't wait to take it out to the basketball courts or parking lots. I can tell I will need lots of practice before I can go cruising around town. I will keep the trucks tight for now, until I improve. The benefit of practicing in a basketball court is that it forces you to work on turns, and provides a smooth surface. I am a female in her early 40s that enjoys working out. I lift weights and love the outdoors. I paddle board too. My friend that is in his early 60s, bought one too, on Prime Day for $129.99. He kept using mine, and said it's a lot more fun than he thought it would be. We both agreed it's the first skateboard we stood on that doesn't feel like we're going to fall and crack our heads open. We find it addicting, and so fun! I thought my friend would have been zooming right away on this board as he is a surfer. Surprisingly he's having to practice and watch the tutorials as well. He's not as balanced as I thought he would be, for a surfer. Please do yourself a favor, and treat yourself to this board. We all deserve some fun and excitement in our lives, especially after going through Covid. Be patient, and Make sure you practice, practice, practice. I posted this video is after taking it out a few times. My first few experiences with this board, was just getting used to standing on it, and getting used to proper footing.

I would totally give this 5 stars, except that it really looked like mine is used (but it isn't). Scuffed on the front and side. Not worth sending it back, since I am sure it will be scuffed soon anyhow, but I can't give a five star review for that either. I wouldn't have left any review because I feel like a 4 star review is harmful and I think this is a really great company with a great idea and great product that meets a real need, but if I leave a review there's a sticker saying I will get a free adjustment tool. So I guess that shows their integrity - they are willing to air their dirty laundry in public to be sure they really get feedback! I looked at the Elos when I was thinking about learning to longboard (at age 44!). I love the portability and wide platform and my feet fit on it better than I thought they would! But I actually didn't buy before learning to ride on another skateboard. I got a Boarder Kontrol skateboard because it had a for-real brake. Sounds strange, but I am committed to keeping my bones as much as possible the way they were before I started this hobby. Now that I don't totally suck at riding it, I can go without the brake, but I needed something smaller and more portable, and it is well-made and good looking and actually meets my needs. Can't wait to travel with it! Before I forget, be sure to actually watch the videos. The little pegs on the back can be used kinda like a kicktail. That fact was kind of a game changer for me on deciding to buy it.

Bit of background, I'm in my mid 30s and haven't been skating for more than 10 years. The COVID situation in NY means that the subway is off limits for me and I have to start looking at alternative transportation to and from work (about 4 miles). When I bought the Elos board I was hoping that I can re-learn skating and use it as my main mode of transport. Wow, I was surprised how easy it is to learn on! One hour skating around the block and I was back into it. The wide wheel and slightly tight trucks made it easier to learn. Soft wheels means that it absorbs the bumps on the sidewalk easily and they are also quiet. I've just loosen the trucks a bit and I can carve more easily now. The added surprise is how small it is! I can take it with me everywhere and it never feels bulky. The handle makes it easier to carry when ever you stop for lights or when you transition to walking. When you get to your destination, just stand it on its side or hang it on a table. Its so small that it doesn't bother others or there's a risk of someone tripping over it. Yes there is no kick and can't really do tricks on the board, but my whole idea is to use it as a more of transport and it ticks all the boxes on that front. Easy to carry, chilled riding style, and faster than walking. The biggest surprise though is for my wife wanting to learn skating on an Elos too! Cheers Elos! (And thanks for the bag too)

I really love this skateboard. From its compact size to ease of riding, it’s the only skateboard I’ve been able to get on and instantly feel confident I can go more than 3 feet forward. Even the packaging was amazing; the box had tips to get started, and additional tips were included in the box. I’m such a clumsy person with not great balance but for some reason I can hop up on this board and look like I know what I’m doing. I wanted something that I can hop on while the kids ride their bikes/scooters so I can keep up with them and this fits the bill perfectly. I’m going to have to get a second because I’m not going to want to share with my husband or kids!

So the product is outstanding. I can't believe how light and fast and stable it is? I expect it to be light and fast and stable, but this is something else entirely. I'm and older guy, and I wouldn't have really thought getting a tiny skateboard for commuting to be a rational thing to do. But this thing is awesome. Also? It kind of smells amazing. And the entire presentation is lovely. It's clean and thoughtful and aesthetically pleasing and the canvas carry bag is a great unexpected treat. This thing is awesome. Highly recommend.

My family was interested in these new short longboards, so I bought 4- one from each of the manufacturers I could find here on Amazon. This was by far the most expensive, and by far the poorest constructed. I really wanted to like this board. The board arrived with the trucks tightened so far down that I couldn't tilt the board 1/2", and I am a full grown man. Luckily I had a skate adjustment tool, so I loosened them quite a bit to get a slight amount of play. Minor annoyance. There are a couple other issues I really find troubling. First, major portions of the trucks are plastic. I have never seen plastic trucks, and none of the other boards I bought had them. Second, the screws in the deck that hold the trucks on are not fully countersunk. They stick up a small amount above the surface of the board. Maybe this wouldn't bother some, but I felt like it was an accident waiting to happen. Try shifting your foot on the board when needed, and if it gets caught? You are going down. We are keeping the three boards we bought from other manufacturers, but not this one. The others cost less than HALF what egos is charging for a smoother ride and better constructed board.

Amazing amazing amazing! Very stable and easy to start for beginners. A+++++

Calidad de materiales, diseño atractivo y muy manejable. Lo hemos comprado para nuestra hija de 6 años y nos gusta para nosotros.. Ella está encantada! Un pero que le pongo; podría venir con la llave para ajustar las ruedas.

Genialissime! J'adore la glisse et j'étais plus que septique sur la fonctionnalité et le produit en générale. Une fois les trucks desserrés à fond, du caviar! J'ai un carver super snapper donc incomparable en terme de pompage et pourtant, carrément envisageable et efficace avec cette board en forme d'œuf, par contre, oubliez les descentes, la planche roule ULTRA bien, objet parfait pour déplacement quotidien, je recommande vivement!

mi e' piaciuta la grandezza e il fatto di poterselo portare con se, poco invece la piccola sacca di colore chiaro, che si sporca subito, ma d'altronde non credo potessero dare pure un borsoncino a tracolla))

the board is way too small at 45cm, the nose should be bigger to have more foot placement, the grip is awful and the foot anchor should be at the front not the back, the trucks are made of plastic only 2 parts are in metal the axel and the baseplate. this is a RKP trucks but they give you TKP bushing and kingpin ...smh need a lot of work is needed to improve this thing. if you have 0 skate experience this is a 4 star , but even a penny board is better than this... and cheaper!!!
