Product Description
The Ollieboard can be used on almost any surface and can be taken just about anywhere. The trucks are made from a durable proprietary polymer compound. You'll be able to get the same feel and dynamics as conventional trucks & wheels. Beginners will learn to ollie quickly & easily. Experienced skaters will be able to get tricks down on the Ollieboard, then perfect them on wheels. Practice all year round, rain or shine. The Ollieboard can also be used to improve muscle memory for many other technical tricks. This is not a toy! NOTE: THIS IS AN OLLIE TRAINING TOOL, NOT A COMPLETE SKATEBOARD. THERE ARE NO WHEELS.

Grip tape didn't stick properly/maybe not installed correctly, or a lower quality of adhesive (nothing to do with reseller i got it from)
"Trucks" where hard plastic not soft if you where wondering.
Fun Board w/ Definite Pros and Cons (A 16 Year Old Skater's Review) January 3, 2006

This board is a great concept: Practice your tricks without worrying about moving around. I personally use it on the carpet in my basement. The board is fun for ollies and balance even for people who already skate (like me.) I already knew how to ollie before getting it, but its still something fun to have.
PRO:
1) Learn tricks and perfect muscle memory indoors or without worrying about rolling
2) Nice grip tape and super strong Ollie Blocks
CONS: (DEFINITELY LOOK AT THESE)
1) My board is already splitting on the edges and the wood is cracking/separating in several spots after 1 month of very light use on carpet only (I'm very lightweight, never did any crazy tricks on it, and used it only carpet)
2) Not the most concave so flip tricks are kind of tough
3) Really scuffs up floors and carpeting
Overall: Better than ollieblocks since don't have to take anything off all the time and fun for a while BUT expect that it won't last forever
I didn't realize what I was purchasing January 11, 2007

I guess I didn't read the complete desciption of what I purchased for my son. When the skateboard arrived and didn't have wheels, I felt frustrated that I would have to go out and purchase wheels for it. I thought why would anyone purchase a skateboard and then have to go out and deal with finding and installing wheels. Now that I see (not a skateboard) in () I feel stupid. My son hasn't used it because neither one of us knew it was a trainer. Now that I know, I'll let him know and perhaps he'll use it.

Bought this board for my son and after using it 2-3 times on carpet the board cracked! You will have to buy another board to use with the "plastic training trucks".
