Hey Kody! Thanks for reminding folks to clean up their world around them. I am sure with a cheap set of ABEC 7's or so that board would have been much better, it is as you said a 15-dollar board. One of my longboards has the Sunset LED wheels. They sure look neat at night, but each wheel is a mini generator to power up the LED's, and the drag is very noticeable. Thank you for posting your down to Earth clips. As always the sounds are fun!

Found one in the trash. Changed out the bushings, bearings and wheels with quality ones that have been replaced with better in my own boards. Its a fact all thats gotta go by the time you upgrade it to make it ridable youve spent 50 dollars or more. After that it turned out decent. Took it to a park to try it out. Dropped in on a 5ft half and a 3 ft quarter and most of the obstacles there and all is still good so far. I had to replace everything that matters on this thing to make it righteous only the deck and the aluminum parts of the trucks remain. I used old parts to upgrade so this one didn't cost me anything. After seeing the quality in the hardware I'd never pay for one of these. Your better of getting a 40 or 50 dollar board for a beginner.

I was planning to get a new board this year, since my last one was the equivalent of walmart boards, only worse. I was initially gonna go with Globe's goodstock skateboard because of Tensor trucks and a slick deck, but my family members decided to surprise me with a Tony Hawk 540 signature series on my birthday. I couldn't really bring myself to tell them that TH skateboards were notorious for their low quality because they only meant good by it. Besides, I found out that the shop wouldn't offer a refund, so I am kinda stuck with it now. I am considering getting new bearings at least. Talk about fate... Do you think it's gonna be fine for cruising around if I just change the bearings? I want to change the wheels too, but I am not sure whether trucks play a decisive factor here.

Try & take it back. For $10 more you can get the darkstar complete. Its much better. Good bearings are like $20.

I bought one of these and thought that I sucked at skateboarding then the trucks literally fell off after 3 days and I bought a new one which was really stupid. Overall it’s fine for learning moves but it won’t get you anywhere.

so i bought the tony hawk board like a few months ago and with the wheels it had,,,it honestly sucked since i was always behind my friend who was SOOOO ahead of me and i would get so tired and then one of my friends put new wheels on it and it went way more faster but it super wiggly and today i got my new board just the board itself and im using the wheels my friend gave me since they are really good and i didn’t take all the plastic off and im having trouble take the screws off from the bottom and i think it’s from the plastic 🤦🏾♀️
