Go buy a piece off wood for $5 and skate on it.
Can a 45 year old learn how to ride these? Cheaper midlife crisis then getting a sports car.
The recommendation for us old fogies is to get a "double drop" longboard. Longboard because it's more stable and great for cruising (and we're never going to do any tricks). Double-drop because it's closer to the ground and easier on our knees.

My kids and I are learning skateboarding together and it's been great so far. I do suggest plenty of safety gear, including padded shorts! Hip and tail injuries at our age are not pleasant.

This is the board I bought:

Apples-to-oranges when compared to the nice deal in this thread.

If removing the wheels can't make it into a water wakeboard or a snowboard, then I will pass. Or else the wheels are too expensive.
My suggestion is to make it 2 in 1. better ban for the bucks.

Quote from Buckeye25 :
His response was to another poster who said you needed to replace the wheels and bearings.
Yes, but it was very simplistic and uninformed without showing any comprehension of how the world works. On top of that it is a bamboo board and not a wood board. Imagine trying to deal crap and not only not knowing about the deal but about something as simple as wood.

Quote from TWKZ85 :
I can and it handles very well doing 25-35mph, trucks/bushings are average. It's my spare board for long distance trails, went over kill throwing my other set of Orangatang In Heat 75mm 80a wheels and Bone Swiss bearings on it. It flies and soaks up everything cruising.
Larger, softer wheels and better bearings like Bone or Red make the board much, much better than the stock! It take less effort to move and you will glide farther. Of course you will have to spend $60 or more on these on top of this Costco or Retrospec board on Amazon, but if you do buy them and install them it is very much worth it!

Board arrived today and it's good! First time trying. Anyone have advice about best tutorials? I've been watching on YouTube but not sure which is best. Thanks!

also just got the board and the deck is sick but like others have mentioned I think it doesn't glide as far probably because of the bearings. I've never changed bearings or parts so be interested in upgrading these without spending much more.

I have a slightly warped deck on my board. In other words only 3 wheels ever touch the ground when I'm not riding it. Is this a safety concern? Or should I just return it and get a new one?

Thumbs up and repped for posting a board deal.

I wish I had waited. I bight an Amazon retrospec board last week. I love it, At this price just always expect not so great bearings and wheels, but excellent for beginners like me who don't know if they'll even like riding or not (and don't wanna spend a fortune on a Santa Cruz board).

So $65 for a piece of wood?

That's a very stupid thing to say. Go get a plank of wood off Home Depot scrap bin and see how much you can actually do with that plank of wood

Quote from Madad33 :
Never had luck with budget boards. If you or whomever you're buying for really gets use out of one, probably best to chalk up ~$120 or so to a surf/skate shop for decent board.
A $120 board at a skate shop is a $65 board at costco

Costco 50+15 (profit) = $65
Skate Shop 50+70 (profit) = $120

I could be wrong

Where's the cheapest place to order authentic bone reds?

I'm thinking maybe skip Amazon and Ebay on this one. not sure how to approach this.

My math is bad but 65 + 20 + 30 = 130?
After tax about 125. You were pretty close.
