Allrover Stair-Rover Longboard - Perfect Skateboard for City Surfing Over Any Obstacle

This skateboard keeps its pace and you can't feel the texture of the street while you ride. Very nice.

This board is like no other board out there.Once you get used to its quirks and handling characteristics, you'll fall in love with it.I have been using this board for a few months now and decided to share this review since there isn't a lot of information out there about this thing.I primarily use this thing on San Francisco streets cruising and carving my way to and from work.Carving the streets is pretty easy once you get used to having 8 wheels on the ground, it honestly doesn't take long to master if you're an experienced rider.Going down stairs is pretty easy once you get used to how it handles going down and gather more confidence from experience going down.Carrying it around when you aren't riding it is really easy thanks to that built in handle.Upgrades are a bit tough because you have double the wheels, that means if you want to upgrade anything wheel related then its going to cost you double.This thing is NOT built for going fast; you have double the wheels making contact which means you will need a lot of pushing power to get going. You'll also have more wheels making contact on the ground, slowing you down. It's not a slouch in any way, but be prepared to use more energy when you use this thing vs a regular board.If you do catch some high downhill speeds with this thing it will be incredibly stable.The stock configuration is pretty nice, especially to learn on, but it quickly feels obsolete after you master its handling or are an experienced rider.I modified a few parts to get it to perform to my personal needs such as wheels, bearings, and bushings; I'll leave a list of my personal upgrades at the bottom.Lets go over the good and the bad.THE GOOD-1: The Build quality is SOLID. This thing will hold up against anything you throw at it.2: The Handling and stability is top notch. Maneuvering at slow walking speeds can be a little tough but once youpick up speed this thing is a carver. High speed stability is unrivaled by any board in my opinion.3: The Stock wheels are decent and will go over most small and medium cracks, they are perfect for streets andgeneral getting around.4: The handle is really useful for carrying this thing around. It is seriously a really useful feature that I appreciate wheni'm in the city.5: Going down stairs is easy and fun once you get used to it (start small and work your way up).6: It's a head turner, people love this thing, it looks mean (could be a bad thing for some).THE BAD-1: The bearings are not good! They were literally oozing out thick grease from the bearing shields after an hour of use.This made the wheels dramatically slower than expected from the box. After I opened the bearing shields there wasa lot of grease packed in them. Allrover, if you're reading this...Don't ever use grease inside bearings...Ever.2: The griptape was not sanded at the edges causing pieces of it to chip and peel off.3: The Allrover online store is NOT open for replacement parts. If something breaks and or needs replacement, you'rescrewed.4: It's a little heavy. The board itself is light but all the hardware attached to it really weighs it down.You will have to use more leg power than you're used to. carrying it around for a long time might suck for some.5: Mine didn't come with the Cnc Footstop, hopefully yours does.Just to summarize, its a great and unique board to use. Its stable and built really well for pretty much anything.It is portable and easy to carry if you don't mind the extra weight. The bearings are greasy garbage but everything else is just fine. I recommend this board to anyone who is looking for a city cruiser like experience with the capabilities to do so much more if you need it to. I am giving this 4 stars instead of five because of the greasy bearing situation and the lack of an online store for replacement parts.For those of you who are interested in the modifications I made to my own Allrover here is the list.1: New soft bushings from Thunder Trucks Co2: Bigfoot Boardwalks concave Wheels x83: Bones Reds bearings x163: Various red hardware bolts and screws all around (mostly just for looks).
