## Overview

The Retrospec Rift Drop-Through Longboard combines a durable Canadian Maple deck with drop-through trucks for enhanced stability and control. Featuring ABEC-7 precision bearings and grippy 78A PU wheels, it’s designed for smooth cruising, carving, and downhill riding. Ideal for intermediate riders seeking a stylish, reliable board for commuting and weekend adventures.

## Description

Drop through longboards have lower centers of gravity, giving you greater stability as you speed, reduced stress on your hips and lower body, and more controlled slides. Constructed from durable Canadian Maple to withstand all-day skating. Ride with confidence knowing your board can handle all of your learning curves. We mixed Rift’s tried and true design with contemporary components for a fresh take on longboarding. Simple, understated lines and shapes paired with poppy botanicals and bright colors for a diverse look.

Review: Good board overall for beginners. Its not quite a "exellent" model but its a good budget-quality compromise. Take note that its not a professional model since some details are off: wheels dont specify the hardness, bearings dont last long, Might have to adjust the trucks, Wood is not the best. Essentially, you are getting what you see. I recommend beginners to Still Buy the Deck and other pieces separatly, investing the Most on what's under the Deck (pad, trucks, bearings and if course wheels). Anyways, its a good Starting item but i definitly recommend to invest on a better model/Brand eventually.
Review: Seems to be great quality! Has not been used as my son ran away from home and has not had the chance to use it. Will keep posted if he returns.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's the flex like on this board?**
A: Like a spring board. I can almost make the middle of the board touch the ground when jumping on it, if that puts it into perspective.

**Q: Are the trucks metal or plastic**
A: The trucks are cast aluminum

**Q: Should i buy this or the retrospec zed bamboo complete cruiser? i'm new to longboarding but i pick up stuff fast.**
A: The drop through will be easier to push since it is lower to the ground and has better wheel clearance. For these reasons I would recommend it. The other board does have a kick tail though so if doing Ollie's are important to you then go with that one. Although being 44in this will difficult, but easier than with the drop though. I hope this helps.

**Q: Has anyone changed the wheels? Want to add better ones for cracks in streets etc. Any suggestions on matching size brand ??**
A: I haven't tried wheels on skate boards, but I have changed wheels on roller skates. I have outdoor wheels and indoor wheels. I would interview skate park participants about their own experiences and what wheels work better for rough terrain etc., prior to purchasing better wheels. The best to your hunt for a better ride.
