I came across the Ridge Board when browsing Amazon, and after reading the overwhelmingly positive reviews, I made the purchase. Boy, am I glad I did. Allow me to explain why the ridge board deserves every bit of these five stars:Portability:Since I am in college, I have to sit in lecture halls filled with 400 students. The ridge board is nice and compact, allowing me to easily carry it past other students to get to my seat, and tuck it under my chair during lecture. Additionally, it only weighs five pounds, so when I am in an indoor place like the library, it is not a burden to carry.Easy to Learn:Before I got the ridge, I had never skated in my life. When I got the board it only took me about 3 days to really get the hang of it. The large amount of foot space makes it easy to stay balanced, even when going at higher speeds.Build Quality / Durability:The ridge board is extremely durable and meant to last. In the past 5 months, it has been dropped, kicked, and jumped on (albeit lightly). Through all of this, there is still no signs of snapping or cracks. The trucks are sturdy and the wheels are quite durable as well; all the materials feel like they are of high quality and not “cheap.” I have ridden this board in the rain, on sandy surfaces, and in sunlight, and none of these environmental conditions have damaged the board.Style:The style is great. If you like the typical Penny Board look, then this board can’t do you wrong since it is a near copy. It has that 1970s skateboard look too if that’s what you’re looking for. The style makes it so I never feel goofy carrying or riding this board around campus.The Ride:The ride is super smooth. It feels great along most surfaces. The only surface I feel bumps on if when riding over bricks, but that is unavoidable. The control of the board is great. I loosened the trucks slightly to give it a little bit more mobility. It responds very well to my leans.Price:You aren’t going to get a better-quality board for this price, simple as that. Extremely affordable for what you get.The only negative about the ridge board is the stock bearings. They are not necessarily bad, but I switched to Reds and now roll significantly longer. I would recommend trying out the stock bearings, and if its not what you’re looking for then buy new ones. The stock bearings are not unusable, but not great either.Overall, this is a great board for a great price. I use it every single day and do not regret this purchase one bit. 5 stars. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ High Quality Ride! *by P***Y on January 14, 2017* Rides super smooth, quality compared to a real penny brand board. I'd recommend buying the tool so you can loosen and tighten the bearings when needed. The perfect size for me 6'0 185 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best penny board (nickel board) replica out there. Super cheap! *by J***E on June 9, 2018* Incredible board. Definitely worth every cent. The only flaw is that the tail is higher up than other nickel boards. And remember this is $40 and plastic. The only thing is it takes some wear on the edges. But it’s not bad. That’s gonna happens to any board wood or plastic. This is litterly the closest replica of a officially branded penny board (nickel board). I definitely recommend this board to anyone beginner or pro. Especially beginners! It’s a great starter board. Especially if you don’t wanna spend $160 on something you might not like or be able to do. Also one last thing is the bearings really aren’t that bad on this I mean there not reds bearings but still there pretty good. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/14375766-ridge-skateboards-big-brother-large-retro-cruiser](https://www.desertcart.us/products/14375766-ridge-skateboards-big-brother-large-retro-cruiser) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-25*
