great
awesome board, better than a long board at taken bumps and rough roads, i agree you have to pump the tires up to over 20psi to get a good coasting pace. takes a good amount of strength to get it up to speed, don't think a young kid would have the stamina to enjoy it(my wife can't get it going). have to watch your you "pushing" foot that it doesn't catch the back wheel. also i have big feet so i can't let my trailing foot toes hang off the side of the board becuase of the large wheels. looked and researched this board for about a month, one month wasted, should've just bought it. able to cut the corners on the sidewalks through the grass like a pro, great grip in the rain too. everything i have grown respect about MBS products.

First Impressions
I just got this today, and took it out for a test run, and it works... well, pretty well. I started out on our light gravel driveway, on which it did great, but when I got to the thick gravel on the road, it became really hard to keep it going. That didn't last long, though, as I got to the reason I got the board; the sidewalk. Our sidewalk is covered in light gravel, which makes it pretty hard to longboard on it, but this board rides over them like it's not even there. However, it is hard to push, and I may have tightened the bolts on the wheels too far. That guy who complained about the board not being assembled, get over it. The only thing not assembled was the wheels. Granted, there isn't much room for error in tightening those, because the bolts are Nylock (basically, there's a band of soft plastic around the top of the inside of the bolt, and that band is engraved with the threading of the screw, locking it in place). That means that you can't take the bolts off, so if...
