Wave Street Board January 2, 2008 Great product, well constructed and looks good. Prompt delivery. Takes awhile to learn how to ride but well worth it once you get it down.
cool board! great gift! December 31, 2007 my son (10) absolutely loves this board. durable and fun to ride. it takes time to get the hang of it and then you're off. in terms of the shopping experience, it was ideal: $10 less than what i found in the store, in the exact color he wanted, and w/free (+quick) shipping. what a great gift!!
Wave Board for Christmas December 26, 2007 I bought two of these for kids #2 and #3 for Christmas.
They were off and running on these right out of the box. Of course, they use these in PE at school, so they are not novices.
They are using these on the neighborhood concrete driveways and sidewalks. I do not see where there will be a wheel wear issue on this type of surface, but I could see how wheels would get worn down quickly on any rough stuff.
If you are an old geezer, like me, with decent balance and athletic ability, you will enjoy using the wave board too. It took me about 20 minutes of practice to be able to get the hang of it and not look like a complete dork.
As always, Amazon came through and shipped quickly with no hassles.

I am a girl. I never skate boarded ever. It does'nt intrest me. Santa got me a silver hi-tide board. Hi-Tide! from the makers of the wave it said on the box. I got teary eyed. I didn't try it. My dad did and fell off. I'll never use it. I like dolls and animals. I'm a tom boy but not a 'gnarly grinder.I'm only 9. Box said ages8 and up. We are returning it. Buy this to break someone's heart!
cool little wave December 19, 2007 I bought this for my sons 9th Birthday. He loves it. He is actually very good at it. Practice makes perfect. I would suggest that if your child has never skateboarded, surfed, nor snowboarded be patient it becomes easier, and funner. My son enjoys riding it with his friends too. I believe it will help with your childs coordination and balance.
