I have two boards ( one from Eightbit, another from different brand). Eightbit board seems very hard to turn compare to other brand. does it have an adjustment to make better turn ? if not, my board may be defected.

Adjust the trucks, it will make it a lot better! I had the same issue. if you don't know how to do this look it up on YouTube there are several tutorials on how. Good luck :)

My experience is that the DIP SWITCHES are upside down. Try reversing what you are doing.

The nut is a jam/lock nut. Turning from bottom depends on how much weight is on the leveler. I would suggest adding another nut and jamming both nuts together then should be able to adjust from bottom.

Try putting it in upside down from the way the instructions say I put it the way it said at first and it would slide out from bottom, but I flipped and now it's great, and it will need a nice hard push for it to click so don't be afraid, but don't exaggerate on the force to get it to click.

having this being my first longboard I'm not very knowledgable on the situation. I have only ridden about 3 longboards all very different. I order this one on the advice of a friend and have had no complaints. How long it is can be an inconvenience, but that's what you get from a LONGboard. Other than that it rides extremely smooth and turns well. I don't think different size wheels would change month or be with it

No. But either the board is good or it isn't. I have been purchasing and using separate boards for decades and I have had to return a few because they just didn't work - something was wrong. If a board is good you will not have any issues.

It is kinda tricky. find the exact spot and to tighten turn clock wise. It took a little while to find the right area to tighten. pull all the way up and keep trying. good luck

it sounds like it is defective... it is a little hard to turn but NOT that hard. when you turn it will feel like are forcing it a bit. i love this oven! I've purchased it twice one for my apt and another for my boyfriends apt. i hope you don't have to send it back but if it's that hard to turn for you, you just might:(

I really liked the results of mine . I feel it finally shifts right . Note get the part / model number and go to the super chip web site

Sounds like it may be defective. When I tightened the screw when it needed to be, it didn't spin and just tightened properly. I suggest sending the one you have back and getting another one.

To be honest. I had a lot of problems with this unit. Boards not drilled correctly, etc. I kept the unit but they refunded most of my money. Should have refunded all of it.

couldnt tell ya..i thought it was a error cuz it says penny/stereo,,wich are names of board company's...all these style boards are the same,,what is different is the hardware(trucks/wheels/bearings) if its not name brand,,they are generics parts...not bad ,,the trucks just dont turn/carve very well...now that i got one for the kids,i notice its better to pay a little more for a name brand ..world industries was a nice one i thought,,i just changed the bearings,,you can find em for @ 55 dollars

The potential problem I can see is that it would not clamp quite as tight with the thinner board to the row below. If it doesn't clamp good and tight to the row below you will have to be careful in setting the next row on the guages and check a lot to make sure they don't get bumped down and out of alignment as you set your boards on the guages. If it is an issue I can see using some shims to make up the 1/16" difference where you set the guages. Hope it helps.

Yeah I had same issue if you open the back you'll see board is burned out. Mine just clicked and wouldn't get cold. Swapped out board working just fine

It seems to be a problem of belt. It is easy to change if you have basic tools.. You can order it online or get ur skateboard to nearest Amazon shop. Pls check ur belt before u order. I hope that helps..

Bearings weren't the problem. The trucks don't turn as sharp as you'd like. I told myself it was the length of the board which made the turns wider since it's pretty long, but I enjoy turning on my friends 43 incher. Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad board, I loved it. Just needs breaking into
