SANTA CRUZ Youth Land Shark Cruzer, Rasta

This skateboard is better than expected. It has a great price , super easy to ride and it feel well made. My 10 year old loves it

I just got this board in the mail, box was left right infront of my door which was alright with me, no big deal. Ordered Sunday, recieved on the next Thursday, free shipping, ripped open the box, then ripped on the board. The wheels it comes with are good dont listen to anybody that says differently. This was my first longboard style cruiser and I was so impressed by how different they are from regular boards, ive been skating for a couple years, and this is a totally different feel, but a good one! The board is made in China, which is a downer, and there was a little bit of paint chip right out of the box, other than that everything was pretty solid. Mine came with a bottle opener and my wheels were not purple like the picture, they were light blue which is what I had hoped for. I'm really happy with this and after riding for an hour and a half on a beautiful night, I just wanna go ride everywhere! haha, if you intend on getting a cruiser and have skated even a little before, I for sure reccomend this board. The board runs smooth and legit, the deck is nice-ish, and the trucks go really great with the board and wheels. No wheels bite and carves like a champ. Maybe I'll replace the berrings later but don't need to right now. If you wanna cruise, this board is super rad for that.

This is an excellent board equipped with quality components. The actual board is as the pictures show, although on mine it is like the rasta land shark in that it has a bottle opener. The wheels are similar and are still the same brand and size although they are completely see through now and have no decal just writing in the same translucent style as the wheel (Blue).I was at first concerned before receiving the board that the bearings would be poor and whilst they dont spin as freely as Bones reds (board lifted off the ground) on they roard they have great spin and are extremely smooth, in that a push will keep the board rolling for a good amount of time.Turning is quite good and the board and trucks are very responsive as would be expected. The white grip tape gets dirty quite easily, although that's not a great concern of mine. The kick tail please note is not for tricks (can't ollie). this board is excellent as a cruiser especially around the streets and the large wheels easily run over sticks and stones and even pavement cracks within a reasonable limit (far better than your average trick board).Just a note for any Aussies out there with such low shipping rates and a Order Sunday receive Friday turnaround this is an amazing deal.

Great out of the box. I love this skateboard. First day, I took it out as is and the board was smooth and sturdy. The deck seems pretty strong. I love the design and it's pretty cool that there's a bottle opener at the bottom of the board. The trucks were loose enough to take good turns without feeling as if I was losing control. The wheels were a little tight but not terribly; ride it first and then see if you want to loosen up the nuts.The only thing you might want to change right away are the bearing. The stock bearings are decent, but if you really want to cruise invest in some new ones. I got some Bones Super Reds off of Amazon cheaper than Bones Reds (the standard ones), so I popped them on a couple of weeks into having the board and I think they've really unlocked this board's potential.

This board is superb. I ride it around town and get lots of compliments on it. However, choosing a board isn't just about getting the most compliments.Trucks are plastic, yes. But, they are really nice and carve amazingly for what they are. They seem to be holding up and I hope they are as durable as they should be.Bearings aren't the greatest. I'm sure if you break them in they would be okay, however if you want a cheap substitute, get some bones reds. They aren't the greatest bearings but they are much better than the stock bearings in the LandShark.Board? It's quite nice. The paint chips off really easily though. There is a bit of concave but not enough to make it really noticeable.Wheels are very good. You can slide them after breaking them in but they aren't slide wheels so I don't recommend sliding with them. You can slide with pretty much any wheel though so yeah."Grip tape" is okay, it gets dirty super fast considering its clear.Overall I am extremely happy with my purchase and I would recommend this board to a friend. In fact my friend is looking into buying one. (Sorry for any typos, I typed this on my phone)

The SC Land Shark has been a great Cruzer!!!!I originally purchased this at the special price of $70 as a Christmas gift for my son. He didn't take any interest in this board and would rather ride the modern boards.So Dad started using it for cruising around the neighborhood and using it for Beer runs to the local Kwik-E-Mart.The board is fast, nimble, small and light transportation for carrying out errands or picking up take out from a restaurant down the street.For the current price, one of the other SC Cruzers might be a better deal and more rideable board which you can also do some tricks and slides cruising around.However, if sold for the special price again, you can't beat the specs on the board. Real SC quality deck with bullet trucks (price point trucks), ABEC 3 or 5 bearings, and the fast wheels.Having a built in bottle opener is an added bonus to open up your favorite beverage.Recommended upgrades are: Change out the standard bullet truck bushings with Bones Bushings (Med or Hard) and Bones Red bearings.

Beautiful wooden small cruiser with throwback shape to the 80’s just on the big side for young child or small nimble skate for adult

I really like this skateboard, it's my first one actually. I have it for a few weeks now, and I can hardly leave it at home :) It's stable (big wheels), curving is easy, small-medium curbs are easy to pass over. Yes, like others mentioned it gets dirty pretty quickly..but it still shines :) When skateboarders see it they love it :) For cruising around is fine, for tricks I didn't try, but probably not as good as normal ones. The kingpin needs some stiffening.. All in all, would recommend it to those looking for fun way for commuting to and from campus (as someone said..make me wanna go to uni more often :) )

Fantastic price for a very good product. Board is excellent.

Great solid skateboard for riding even the rougher road surfaces. Not too heavy, easy to carry if needs be. Had it around a year and no complaints!
