is it a good begginer board even on rough surfaces

It's a good beginner board, but it depends on how rough of a surface you are talking about. Our streets here are blacktop and many years old. It's bumpy, but they are little bumps and the board handles them fine, but you may want to avoid the cobblestone streets of historic European villages.

It has been for my daughter. Its her first and works well on paved surfaces. The smoother the better but does work on rough pavement.

Yes, in fact this was my first board, and it is durable and has lasted me at least a year.

Yeh definitely a great 1st board as it was my 1st, and is able to keep up with now intermediate riding as well. As far as rough surfaces that's kind of open ended but it has handled well around town on less then ideal sidewalks. Would recommend this board!

I purchased this board a little under 4 years ago, and have had absolutely no issues with stability/durability/surface getting bumpy etc. It is a great investment!

Yes, although a smooth surface is necessary for best results. I would recommend a white board.

No. But it is the least bit rough. that is good so nothing can slide fi you use this with a sharp knife.I"m using the board as a vinyl turntable support on top of a floating suspension system. The little roughness is good as the turntable feet won't slide around.To me either anyway you use it this is a win-win. It is sturdy. Has not warped even the tiniest bit at all after being positioned vertically for over a year now.

The board is alright for someone of that weight. I'm 210lbs and this was my first board. I recommend this for a beginner, some learning to skate.

Yes!! It doesn't have a lot of curve or carve. It's more of a cruising board. My 8y/o sister learned how to ride on this board and she's doing great!!

Its a good board for the money. The bearings roll good unlike other cheaper board. The trucks and good as well.

Definitely easy to ride. The board has a concave shape that allows your feet to be placed in a very balanced position. Generally speaking, I'd consider this to be a predictable board.

My girls are young and inexperienced so they don't turn well, but I love the board - it is a good quality board with good wheels. I think if someone can skate the board would turn well.

NONE! The bearings in this board are perfectly fine. Just ride it and you'll see. Why spend more $$ on other bearings just to say you have name brand bearings. Blah blah blah. Ride it and you 'll see they are perfectly fine, fast and fun!

With practice I would recommend it to anyone age 10 and up. Once you get the basics down it is easily rideable. The board is in fully operable condition with few scratch marked due to normal use.

Yes it would be a great first board, my son said it turned great and was really easy to do tricks with.

I think it would work well for non beginners also. It really depends on what you would want for your board. You could probably change everything if you wanted to.

Definitely not. It's noce and thick so you don't have to worry about it breaking easily, the wheels are very smooth to ride on and the trucks make the handling of the board quite easy.

I have this board and love it. It's a great board for beginners. I'm an adult of average weight and this board hasn't broken, it's very well- built. The trucks need to be loosened a lot at first, but other than that it comes fully set up.
