You definitely went way harder on the braille board against the wall than the other board. The last 3 kicks were weak sauce in comparison to smashing the braille

Bought 1 for my daughter for a whopping $20 at local walmart
FAR better than any other complete sold at walmart/kmart/target etc.
Definitely not as nice as my baker/indy/spitfire setup, but
absolutely amazing for a $20 beginner setup

A note about the bushings, they are replaceable and for a beginner trying to learn trucks, the stuff trucks help prevent wheel bite. I think it's probably the right choice.

I’ve been thinking about picking up skating again. I priced out a build for $170, but I’m tempted to pick this board to see if I’m really serious about getting back into it.

didnt slam the other board nearly as hard as you did with the braille board. You can clearly see you didnt put your full effort

Perfectly performed review ..I just got new Indy bushings for about $8 direct from Independent. So if you caught one of these on Sale or Clearance, maybe marked down because "someone" tore the plastic wrap and skated it in Walmart? Say $30 with new bushings. Best deal ever for the money, specifically for parents on a budget and new younger and smaller skaters. My first board was a plastic onefooter banana in 1978, then a 200# Variflex ..then a Mcgill then a Roskopp.. Having a board of this quality from the beginning would have been amazing. Great review 🔨

This is the best most thorough review I’ve seen of this board!! Definitely worth the 50 it’s way better than those standard crappy boards haha id like to see you swap the bushings out and see if that makes a difference with the trucks would be an interesting test!

The park is looking great man! And great video

[CrashHobbyX]

At 32:26, watch the bottom right corner, background floor. Y'all got a sasquatch on your hands.

[danielramirez-elzp]

the wall test was not of equal force.
the truck kingpin didn't fall out when you dismantle it.

[joshwa]

Really great video and review will be subbing for sure

[iosmotions]

Nothing u did was for beginners tho, to be fair and honest u clearly put it to the test of what a pro board can stand up to

[JoshPogue]

Random ADHD Moment... Anyone else notice the lizard scuttle across at 32:26?

[ryanmarshall]

you literally slammed the braile board so much harder

[whichphilosipher]

As for the instructions on the street, the idea is that they are beginner boards to learn and practice on not for all purpose street. They say that in their video. They even explained everything in their video and said it's not the best board but it's the best bored that Walmart would allow for the price. And it's holds up I buy these and hand them out to new skaters usually people just learning and they serve well and last but you don't ride them on the street in metropolitan areas because you can get hurt. That's obvious but if you don't put a disclaimer it could lead to a lawsuit cuz people are stupid

Ive watched Braille videos on and off and thats probably why its in my feed. Didnt know they made a board until today.
Glad to see they're making a solid product.

Also, the amount of video production you put in your video? I thought I was watching some mega channel with 250k-2m sub. I was actually shocked to see so little views/sub
Amazing video work.

[FlumaFPS]

i think the hard bushings may have been a conscious decision made by braille, remember its a beginner board and most beginners ride tighter trucks cause its easier to balance

[dumprs]

I really like how you constantly refer back to it being a Walmart board and obviously if you were a more experienced skater you'd be getting a 'better' set-up being online or local skate shop but the fact anyone can roll up to a walmart, buy the thing and enjoy the skating experience for a decent price point is awesome! love the video and keep up the honest, great and thorough reviews! 🔥👍🏼🛹

[signalpathproductions]

Love how makes the board look so good in the intro while he looks hung over af 😂 respect

They're at Ollies for $15 now. Bought 2 boards, gave them to my cousins as they're at the age where they're super interested in Skateboarding and these boards are fantastic beginner boards! I don't trust those Walmart boards with plastic trucks whatsoever, but these Braille boards are so much more comfortable and sturdier!
