Undersized and Overpowered
I'm a student at UCSB, and I skate 2 miles each way to class.I normally stay faithful to my landyachtz bamboo pintail longboard, but midterm stress and compulsive internet shopping led me to where you are now, reading the comments on this funky little board to see if it actually rips, or if it rips you off.... I thought there was no way I would spend over $50 per foot of board, but after seeing the comments and some videos, I had to order it just to see it. I planned to kick it around inside, and send it right back, because I didn't believe that this board would be rideable, let alone fast.And then I rode the board.This board rips.Not just a small tear on the corner of a page, but rips the pavement like a young child opening presents on Christmas morning. This board feels really fast. Like really fast. I thought it would be as stable as a primary carbocation, but this thing is as stable as a benzene ring. I expected whited sepulchers but I received a hall of mirrors. I expected a scrambled egg but received a golden egg.Not only was this board 90% as fast as the longboard I have been perfecting for the last 2 years, but it fits on my backpack straps like a charm. No longer will I have to be skate-boardless when I travel. The eggboard is truly tiny.Also, I had no expectation for a functional tail, but the last 2 inches of the board make the tail remarkably useful, even while keeping it stable enough for riders who do not typically use a tail. Remarkable feat of engineering.And if all that wasn't enough, Paolo reached out to me personally after registering my LIFETIME warranty, thanking me for supporting his small business passion project. A product this good could only have come from an even better business model.Sure enough I aced those midterms,and sure as hell I'm keeping this board.

Perfect beginner board!
I’m new to skateboarding, and I’ve asked around about whether I should invest in a longboard, a penny board, or a regular skateboard. I found my comfort with this board. It’s wide enough and stable like a long board, but small and convenient like a penny board so easy to carry around. This board is stable and fun to ride. I’ve had a lot of people compliment me on what a fun board it is. I think if you’re a newbie like me, then this is the perfect board for you! The cost is pretty reasonable in my opinion and the design is really inviting.

Eggboard for life!
If you’re on the fence about taking the plunge on this board, don’t be! It is QUALITY. And so much fun! I am a beginner and it was very easy to use. Rides extremely smooth and did not have to make any adjustments out of the box. The small size is a big plus as I will be using it to get around my campus. I am 5”3, 115lb F and It is comfortable to carry. On top of that, eggboards customer service is unmatched. I was able to have a conversation with the owner regarding tips and tricks he might share to a new rider. Never had that kind of interaction with a company before. 10/10 would recommend this company!

Amazing customer service
I had just received my Eggboard yesterday and I was so excited to take customize and take it to school the next day, my friends loved it and I loved it too but to my dismay while riding home today I hit a bump and my skateboard flew into the street and got hit by a car. I was heartbroken and when I walked home I immediately started typing up my email to Paolo, the creator of Eggboards. A few minutes after I sent it, Paolo himself responded and though he said he’d get back to me as he could he addressed all the worries and calmed my mind, the product is great, the company is great, you should have no problem putting your faith in this company.

Fun board!
I must say, I am pleasantly surprised. What a fun little board! I have a lot of experience on skateboards and longboards, so I wanted to try this out to see how it compared to other boards I've skated. I've had both the 22" and 27" Penny boards, all sorts of longboards, cruiser boards, and classic street decks. This board is different than anything I've ever skated, and really stands out. The first couple of pushes took some adjustment, as it is small, but I got the hang of it quickly. The size is perfect and the wide trucks and soft wheels complement the board very well. It's also very stable at speed and absorbs all sorts of terrain. I was carving in no time and had no wheel bite. Bonus points for fitting inside my Timbuk2 Tuck backpack. Awesome! Really, this board is a blast to skate. Highly recommended!

Unusual Design. Required mod, but ended up great.
Bought for my son, an intermediate skater who has been on penny boards for years, and uses it to get between classes at college. He was excited to ride it.He crashed the Eggboard hard, and refused to get back on. He said the shortness of the board, and the large amount of exposed wheel was causing rubs that were unsafe.Hmmm...I put 129mm trucks and 60mm wheels with a riser on the Eggboard. He loves it now. Good stability, great carving, but way less wheel hanging out to rub on.Reused the Eggboard trucks/wheels on an 8in deck, perfect for longer rides around the neighborhood.Cool specialty board. Fun cruiser.

Eggtastic - But one thing...
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. The Eggboard is super fun because it feels really quick due to its size, and stable too. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is that the trucks do not seem mounted straight - tends to lean left so when I try to pick up more speed from kicking, I can't really do it because board rolls to one side and it's difficult to get back foot back on because of it. If we can fix this issue then it's 5 stars, but for now, the trucks seem a bit mismounted. Can someone at Eggboard help me out? Thank you.Edit/update: Just tested it again down driveway and it totally veers left, and you can clearly see how the trucks are bolted into board a little off. Need refund. Video shows how the driveway actually goes upward on the left side and the EggB still easily overtakes it down the hill on that side.

Surprisingly Fun!
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. Hands down, my favourite purchase of 2020. Picked up skating only this year but I've had so much fun with it over the last few months. After I bought the first one for myself, had a couple of requests from friends to buy one for them too and ended up ordering another 5 Eggboards! The size and shape of the Eggboard definitely takes some getting used to, but it's not difficult. It rides very very smoothly and it's a great board to explore the city on - I've ridden this up to 4 miles in a single day. The Eggboard is extremely portable and I was able to bring this everywhere - office, malls, buses, trains. This was perfect for me as a commuting board - no regrets with this purchase. Also, top-notch customer engagement - Paolo (founder) was friendly and sincere, and offered great support!
