Personally, I find my 36" longboard with 21.5" wheelbase to already be as big as I want for a cruiser style longboard. But, I'd super recommend anyone considering trying it to just get it and have fun. You can sell it for $15 in a couple minutes after you want something different. There's little reason not to buy it. The biggest issue I see are the 85a durometer wheels that are harder than standard for this type of board. For rough roads, you'd probably want to switch them out for 75-81a wheels. For smooth concrete, the 85a will be great.

If the tail was half as long then it would actually be usable. And the front is too long too. Yeah you need some room for your hand but it's excessive.
At this price, cutting off the nose or extending the wheelbase would be totally acceptable. It would also work with something like the Waterborne surskate adapter it the trucks were pushed out more towards the ends.

Why do you need the giant overhang at the back end if you can't put any weight on it without it being unsafe? It's so big you can't even kick up the board effectively. No reason to have it be that long other than style.
This board is good if you just want a style board. But if you want one, that's actually good for skating and using then look elsewhere.

Just because I say that it's bad for actual skating doesn't mean I'm an elitist.
Just because someone has a different opinion than you or more experience then you in a topic doesn't make them an elitist.
