How long do you think this longboard would last?

It depends what you're doing on the long board, and where you're riding it. All I've done is cruise, mine has lasted a long time.

Mine has lasted for about a year and a half now. It all depends on what your using it for and how many times.

I'm 200 lbs and it's fine for me. I understand this board is a very good value for money. I got it as a starter board and I love it. If it was any smoother I think it would be difficult to learn on, any less smooth and it wouldn't be any fun to ride. I can only speak from my own limited experience but I can say I'm very happy with my purchase.

not sure. I bet if it was washed and clean of debris, it could last a while. go for it.

no idea. I doubt if would be so good, as the padding behind the shell would likely come off iwhen waterlooged with satl water (f longboarding is surfing)

I think it will last a couple years. My grandson is hard on scooters and had to send a few back but this one is built well so I think it will last.

Yes it would be a great first board, my son said it turned great and was really easy to do tricks with.

The board itself if 40 pounds and is 8 foot long. The weight limit is 140 #'s on this particular board.

Definitely easy to ride. The board has a concave shape that allows your feet to be placed in a very balanced position. Generally speaking, I'd consider this to be a predictable board.

I think this board can hold up to more than 300 lbs. My 160 lb son and his friend of equal weight easily rode this together without any difficulty.

It last for 7-10 minutes.. but buyer beware I have bought 3 of these and they are all defective. I had to order a new board from xheli.com to repair them everytime. but hey what can I say i keep buying them because they are so great

Taller kids with great balance should be OK with this. 7' board would be ok if you have smaller waves, but with 4' or higher waves I would say this board would be fine.

Weight is fine - and this board would work up to about 57" tall, if a beginner. It's a soft top, so will get dented, but so far so good. Minimal wear, and the fins have taken quite a few rides up onto the sand and rocks without damage. We've only used the board for a couple of month's, but it's in pristine condition, and used 4 - 5 times a week. Hope this helps.

This board didn't last my 13 year old 2 days. he snapped the trucks... My 18 year old has the same size board but the original brand and has had no problems. You get what you pay for I guess. My 13 year old changed the trucks and still rides it. It bends a lot in the center.

Edit: My friend is 220 and he rides without a problem. This is a great board, I got it for him a year ago for his birthday and it's still in perfect shape.

I dont think it is too long but it is super heavy to carry and transport. I am very happy with the board. This year i have a plan to put a hanger on the back of our boat so we can take with on the lake. Good luck

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.
