From The Manufacturer

A great skateboard for the beginner skateboarder in the family! Skateboarding is fun like playing a video game is fun – skateboarding is that deep kind of fun that gets down into your gut. Skateboards come in all shapes and sizes as riders progress through different skill levels. Remember that riding a skateboard is a fun activity for both boys and girls. This RudeBoyz and OC Girl Mini 17″ Skateboard will keep the kids active, playing outside and they will definitely make tons of new friends. Everybody has got to start somewhere.This is perfect for children from the ages of 3-5 who haven’t spent too much time on a skateboard yet, but are ready to work on the basics like learning to stand on the board and ride comfortably without falling down and managing your center of gravity. The moment where your child starts to become more comfortable pushing off with his or her foot and balancing atop their board as he or she rides – you’re going to fall in love watching your children use this board. Skateboarding will challenge your kids in new ways and teach them a new skill set. It sounds cheesy, but teaching kids to believe in themselves and understanding how powerful they really are is important! Our vibrant board colors and wheel colors mean that they will look so cool riding around the block.

Expert Reviews


What reviewers liked

Perfect for toddler and younger school aged kiddos. Also really cute! Had for a few months and it's still in great shape!
-
With ABEC-7 bearing, 54 mm wheels and a concave deck, you can be assured this skateboard will provide a strong foundation for every kid rider.

What reviewers didn't like

The design isn't very well thought out. There are a number of problems. 1. the trucks are plastic and slightly off-center/crooked. 2. There are no bearings included which is not stated in the product description. 3. The proportions are absolutely terrible. 4. The board sits far too high for the length making it awkward to say the least.
-
It’s not suitable for kids older than 5 years. The grip tape may get bubbles.
