Yes!! It doesn't have a lot of curve or carve. It's more of a cruising board. My 8y/o sister learned how to ride on this board and she's doing great!!

I have this board and love it. It's a great board for beginners. I'm an adult of average weight and this board hasn't broken, it's very well- built. The trucks need to be loosened a lot at first, but other than that it comes fully set up.

No, spend the money and get a quality board. This board snapped inhalf while my daughter was riding down a hill. She ws not trying to do crazy stuff with the board as it is a long board used for cruising. The board broke all the way across the back screws.

It is fine for a 6 year old, but she might get board of it after a while of using it. I think she would love it.

No. But either the board is good or it isn't. I have been purchasing and using separate boards for decades and I have had to return a few because they just didn't work - something was wrong. If a board is good you will not have any issues.

I would say yes, it is a good beginner board. The wheels are tight, so it is not too loosey-goosey. When she advances in her skills, you can get the wheels adjusted. Enjoy!

This one is my first and only I love it. And you never really know what suits you until you try it out. Some people like long boards and some penny boards. But this is def a great board. I hope I answered your question.

Absolutely, this board is great for beginners. When I first received it, it was my first time riding a longboard. But with this board, I learned very quickly.

It is good for beginners. My 13 year old uses it and his only experience on a board prior was a penny board. He rides it around the neighborhood a lot and it hasn't shown any signs of wear or cracking.

Decent board but you're gonna wanna upgrade the trucks and wheels eventually. it's a good board to start in but you'll want a better board later in. For 100 bucks though it's alright. Complete set ups are usually really expensive

In my open honest opinion, buy it for you daughter. It is very well built, with all the extra's that you get with the bow set it is well worth the price. I bought this set for my 5 year old grandson, it is almost a little advanced for his age. I would say it would be perfect for your 9 year oldgirl. She would have lots of years of use before having to advance to a more complex bow. Matter of fact, I like using this bow myself. It ismost definitely not a toy. It's a powerful little bow. Bear makes a very high quality archery bow and equipment. I hope I didn't overly answer yourquestion. However, I believe your child would have years of use and enjoyment with this bow set............... In my open honest opinion, buy it for you daughter.

I would say yes. My son is 7 and his older friends play on it too. It's held up very well for 2mos, they use one piece at a time for "jumps." It's a little narrow for a skate board though, better for bikes. A good value compared to others too.

Yes, it would be great. I bought it for my ten year old daughter who also has not had a skateboard before. She loves it and finds it easy to ride.

This would work great for a nine-year old. It will even accommodate adults! Even though I bought one for my 3-year old grandson, my daughter can ride it. They are very heavy duty. I think your nine-year old will love it.

It's a wonderful board for beginners and not that you couldn't surf with it but I think it would be a low performance board for riding waves.

Absolutely. It comes with several levels of patterns so the beginner boards with the shape outlines would be perfect for a two year old.

Thanks so much for the inquiry! At his height and weight, a board in the 137cm range will be ideal, give or take a couple cms either way. That K2 Mini Turbo board is a 120cm so it will be a bit small for him. Have a great day!
