Ridge Retro Mini Cruiser Board - UK Manufactured

I LOVE this board. I'm a recent college grad who had a summer job on campus, and I used this board to help me get to work on time. This is AWESOME. Easy to carry, solid ride, and I always get compliments on the retro design. I think this is a good skateboard for any rider, regardless of experience. I've been riding for years and this is by far my favorite board, however I will note that I really only use my boards for cruising.A few things to note before you buy this:1) THIS IS A SMALL BOARD. When I got this in the mail, it was a lot smaller than what I was used to. I'm about 5'6 and pretty thin, and it took me a few weeks to get the hang of it. But if you're riding this every day I'm sure you'll pick it up faster than me!2) GET YOUR TOOLS. You might have to loosen the trucks a bit. When I got it, it was pretty tight so I couldn't make turns that well and would often fall. Loosening the trucks helped a lot.3.) SAVE YOUR MONEY. If you're stuck between this and a penny board, get this one. I have both and couldn't tell you the difference other than the fact that they have different logos at the bottom. This is cheaper and rides just as well. I always recommend this to my friends who are new to boarding.

I got this for myself. I am 16 and ride this board to school and home every day. Extremely smooth, great quality, and made for cruising. The Abec-7 bearings don’t spin very long when I just spin the wheels, but I practically never have to push when riding. I have ONE warning: it is a little difficult to adjust the trucks because after a bit of loosening you can hand loosen it easily. I have my board just beyond hand loosening tightness and it happens to be perfect for the way I ride. So this board is perfect for me, and I highly recommend it to you!

Good board... Only problem was it came with gummed up disgusting bearings that hardly moved. Switched the bearings with bones reds and it was a great experience.Im 6,3 125lb

I've been using this board on a daily basis for months now and it never failed me. I was initially disappointed by how the bearings were not spinning so well, but once I cleaned them and used the board for about a month, it started riding pretty damn fast! Color selection is pretty cool as well!

Real nice quality, I believe the best bang for your buck! Board is smooth and feels nice under the feet. I am 6' and 175lbs and the board rides real well for me, I suggest it for anyone looking for a nice travel sized board to cruise around on.

Board is fine, trucks and bushings are also fine. The bearings are pretty poor though. Hard to pick up any speed. Kinda disappointing for a board made for cruising.

I'm 22 years old and this is my first ever board. I hotter white ridge penny board with clear blue wheels and it looks fantastic. Love the quality cuz that's what's important overall really nice

This board is really short compared to even a skateboard. If you're 6 feet tall as I am, it will be a definite struggle to keep on the board.Physics is my favorite subject. Unfortunately, it is also the reason I'm a bit annoyed with this board.Also, if you think it's going to be a cute, lighter version of a skateboard... you're wrong. It's just as heavy, and high enough to look almost "odd".

ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo, lo preso sopratutto per il mio cane, bouledogue francese che ne va pazzo ci va lo rosicchia poi lo riportanella salita e torna ad andarci, e sta durando tantissimo, per questo prezzo veramente ottimo, avevo preso tempo fa un altro costa di più ed è durato di meno!

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.

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

Pienamente soddisfatto dell' acquisto.Materiale buono. Prodotto funzionale e ben rifinito.Il rapporto tra qualità e prezzo è ottimo.Consigliato

Ho comprato questo che è il mio primo skate attirato dal prezzo bassa e le dimensioni contenute. Il prodotto mi sembra assolutamente ben fatto. Imballaggio perfetto (anche troppo!), spedizione dall'Inghilterra (dove viene prodotto, cosa che ha influito sulla mia scelta) in 5 giorni con Prime. Ho preso la versione bianca con ruote arancioni.E' lungo 57 cm e pesa 1850 grammi, buon compromesso tra leggerezza e robustezza. La tavola è in plastica e sembra di qualità, regge il mio peso di 82 kg senza problemi, anche se si flette un po' al centro (Ridge dice che il limite è di 85 kg, oltre si flette troppo ma non dovrebbe mai spezzarsi comunque). I trucks di acciaio mi sembrano molto solidi, e le ruote sono di una gomma dura che ha un ottimo grip. Per quanto riguarda la scorrevolezza dei cuscinetti, dando una spinta a mano la ruota si ferma quasi subito, credo che ci sia di meglio, ma per un principiante come me penso possano bastare.Per quanto riguarda come va su strada, porto scarpe #45 e riesco comunque ad usare questa tavola così piccola, che mi sembra dare il meglio su superfici più lisce, mentre su asfalto sentirete la grana sotto forma di vibrazioni, cosa che alla lunga potrebbe affaticare. La regolazione dei trucks con cui arriva è molto stretta, e si nota subito perché da grande stabilità, ma rende curvare complicato, bisogna spostare molto il peso sui lati e per me che sono un principiante non è banale, quindi per ora sono riuscito a curvare solo per ampissimi raggi. Quando avrò acquisito più sicurezza proverò ad allentare i trucks. Tutto sommato mi sembra adeguato per andare in giro senza avere troppe pretese.In definitiva mi sento di promuovere l'acquisto, vale sicuramente i 21,85€ che l'ho pagato.
