@cheetah2000, it is a great board if you are around 110 or more. Is gunna feel weird at first but definatly loosen trucks before you ride.

my daughter (17) is over 100lbs and it seems to be fine for her. We were on the beach and saw other kids that look heavier. I think this board accommodates most weights. My daughter thought it was not as easy as it looks to maneuver though.

Yes...my son is almost ten and it is a good viable option. It is a strong board and yet rolls well. He will not outgrow it anytime soon.

Hi Amanda, my daughter is 5'2 and 105lbs. This board will be sufficient for you. Keep in mind that, the bigger board you have, makes it easier to learn how to catch a wave and stand up. Good luck I hope this helps.

no, the board is poor quality, could be a paddle board for kids, it is only 6 feet, a paddle board are usually 9' foot up.

This is not a smaller size skateboard. It is "regular" size. My grand daughter got it for her 7th birthday. With some practice it will be fine!

if yours is 12 feet, you should get one of those nickle boards. they are like penny, just bigger. penny is 22", i think nickle is 27" (the size of the board)

Probably. Ours is a wooden antique board so I imagine its smaller than the standard one and it fits well.

Well it is more like a nickel board, given that it is 27 inches, which is longer than the standard 22-23 inches. I found this size more useful for my needs and my foot size but if you want the smaller size then go for that. I would recommend getting a decent set of bearings to switch out with, but besides that I love mine and I've almost had it for a year.

Can't say for sure, but it seems like it would be fine. The ones I bought were for my two grandsons. The boards seem sturdy and well made. We haven't had any problems so far.

It probabyly wont snap bit it will bow. Im 150 and it has just too much flex. I wish I had gone with a little shorter board. Trust me, the ridiculous length is a novelty that will wear off quickly.

I think this would be a little too small. 0 Surfing experience and that weight around 9 feet or more board would be ideal to make paddling easier, catching the wave and stability standing easier.

I bought this for my nephew at age 13. I think the older kids like the long boards. However, it was a good board.

No. Absolutely not. The board is super flexible and rides maybe an inch above the ground. I bought this for my son and he's 145 and the bottom is marked and nicked from just going over unever surfaces on his way to school. It sways down a lot with him on it.

Pretty much like a standard board. Not over sized or so small that you cannot read the board. I cannot measure it because it is at our guest house. I think you would be pleased. I would purchase it again.

Probably, but it might feel tight on the top/bottom, width wise you should be okay, I'm 13 an there was some room.

my son is 11 & the thinks this board is very large. When I did my research, they suggested this size for kids just above his size/weight/age. I chose it because the site suggested you go up if you are straddling areas. My son is a beginning beginner too. I suggest a size down for your son unless he's really tall. (My son is 4'9"). As far as the street goes - I've had no complaints from him but he's still learning (just got his in April). Good luck :)
