The wheels turn in this one relatively easy when you compare it with the Fire Board of Hudora that large sibling got in our times. The steering moves at the Retro Board lighter than the Fire Board. As it is, however, behaves in practice remains to be seen.
Update March 2014: My child weighs less than 30 kg. If it is on the skateboard and it uses, then the deck will not bend. For use in children so it's perfectly adequate. In practice, it turned out that it can be better off than the Hudora FireBoard that has the sibling. The Retro Board rolled to a lot better. It seems that the ball bearings are better here. In addition, the plastic material which is installed in the axes is softer. The causes of this board can easily be pleasantly steer by weight shift, even if you're just a flyweight as my child. The sibling to the Fire Board, which is slightly heavier, has not so easy to control, since the axles are rigid because despite adjustment. The board is sufficiently brushed up so that you have a good grip in dry weather and not so easily slip off.
All in all it was a good buy for a child in primary school. Since the feet in the age too large are not (currently 32), they are also both on the board without incurring the problems of space. In an adult that can already be tight. The bright colors in which the Board is available, are also an alternative for girls who find the traditional wooden decks not so nice. For example, because there are often skulls design element. Here you can choose the color. The skateboard with wooden deck you get depending on the offer, often sent to a random subject that does not necessarily like.
Conclusion: The board meets as a gift for a child in primary school age all expectations and has caused great joy. My child uses it like and thus get moving with fun. For a beginner who just want to drive around, it is highly recommended.
