no H. Bauer they don't know anything about riding!!! this board doesn't turn well at all mine did even turn right and I am about 98ibs and have been skating for about 5 years so no not good enough unless you want to go in a straight line. go talk to someone at a skate shop NEVER BUY A BOARD ONLINE YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GETTING AND IF THE REVIEWS ARE CORRECT OR NOT

Yes! I'm a 105lb girl and for the price it's pretty good. But if you want an actual "cruising" board, you might need to pick up some new gel/rubber wheels so you don't have to constantly kick every second and loosening the board is better for turns.

The young lady that rides this board is about 130 lbs and 5'8" tall. She is a beginner and has done well. I would recommend that the rider take it to a board shop to get the trucks tuned up to fit their needs, this determines the speed, and control.

Yes. Its a great board for the price. Just make sure to loosen the nuts when it arrives to get a better ride.

I believe it will be. My son is 8 soon to be 9 and he likes it. Unless your 10-year old is a pro I think this board will be a great starter board. It also looks and feels great.

I'm 225 and it floats me pretty good. It is not as stable as a fixed board but it is pretty stable. I've had a friend that was about 250 use it and he thought it didn't float him very well.

This board was purchased for my 20 year old son who had used his friends a few times and overall liked it. But due to the design, the friends board had cracked where it was skinny in the neck. I think it'd be a great board for a smaller person. My son/friend weigh around 175 pounds.

It is a very good starter board. It was my first board and i pretty much kept up with all my friends that boarded. the trucks and wheels arnt great but they work. If you think you are goin to get into boarding alot I would spend the extra money and get a better one but if you aren't sure if you will like boarding or not this board will do the trick.

My son is 7 and can ride it easily but he has great balance. This board is quite narrow which makes it a great board for younger surfers who have trouble paddling out on wider boards that don't accomodate their arm reach. I think 140 lbs is pushing it for a beginner. I am a beginner and weigh 110 pounds and tried it and found it too wobbly. A 7-8 ft board would probably be more suitable. Look up the costco board for about $100, most popular low priced board in Cali.

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.

It is a great starter board for anyone. You are not going to want to get a short board because he will grow into it. I have been hard on mine and it still rides like the day I got it.

If he is an experienced surfer, yes. It is a smaller board and it may be difficult for a beginner. My daughter is about 130 lbs and she struggles a little because she is just learning how to surf.

My son is 80lbs and that board feels like it can take really up to a 100lb max. It is narrow and would not be stable under a heavier load.

I bought it for my kid, but it's a full board. Seems pretty strong and can definitely support my 215 lb frame (not that I'm doing tricks with it).

At 180 lbs., I am fine on this board. I would imagine you can notch up another 10 to 15 lbs.

I weigh 130 and it is easy to control. I actually highly recommend this board. It is the only board I've ever bought but it seems to work really great.

Decent board but you're gonna wanna upgrade the trucks and wheels eventually. it's a good board to start in but you'll want a better board later in. For 100 bucks though it's alright. Complete set ups are usually really expensive

I weigh around 200 lbs. And get very little flex. It's a pretty solid board.
