Bandito - Starter Complete Wooden Fingerboard - 30mm

Popsickle stick ish fingerboard solid grip tho just like all the others easy to throw together, parts are honestly really good quality, looks sick, no plastics, bang for your buck. And look if your girl don’t like your fingerboard tricks that ain’t your girl no mo

nice and soft grip, kinda difficult to assemble with aligning the trucks but worth the struggle, the grip tape feels softer then the actual tech deck brand performance series to me, I'd suggest you buy if you wanna or something. Edit: the screws for the trucks were garbage so I put tape on them to keep them still

TL;DR: 4 Stars. A high-utility entry into wooden hardware that provides a significant mechanical upgrade over plastic retail models. While the 5-ply maple deck delivers superior pop and tactile response, the 30mm width is a "high-precision" constraint that is less forgiving than modern wider decks. Resulting in potential for an authentic skill-building experience that rewards mechanical discipline. [MECHANICAL SPECS & PERFORMANCE] Chassis: 5-ply Maple Wood "Deep Mold" Deck (30mm x 100mm). Trucks: 29mm Standard Starter Trucks (Single-axle design). Wheels: CNC Lathed Bearing Wheels (Plastic-urethane composite). Grip: High-friction Foam Grip Tape. Hardware: Philips-head screws with locking nuts. [FUNCTIONAL UTILITY] Organic Pop: Unlike rigid ABS plastic, the 5-ply maple construction allows for natural "snap" and flex. This improves the height and consistency of ollies and flip maneuvers. Bearing Mechanics: The inclusion of actual bearings in the wheels reduces rolling resistance, providing smoother approach speeds and longer "lines" on terrain like the Vert Wall. Deep Mold Leverage: The aggressive kicks and concave provide increased leverage on the tail and nose, assisting in the initial "pop" phase for beginners. Tactile Grip: Foam tape provides superior impact absorption and grip compared to sandpaper alternatives, allowing for longer sessions without skin irritation. [CRITICAL NON-CONFORMANCE: ASSEMBLY & WIDTH] Self-Assembly: The unit arrives as a "flat-pack" set. Technical Note: Trucks are not pre-threaded; to avoid stripping hardware, thread the screws into the truck baseplates before mounting them to the deck. The 30mm Constraint: This is a narrow, "agile" setup. Modern standards favor 32mm–34mm for landing stability. The 30mm width creates a smaller "catch" area, which can lead to higher failure rates during the learning phase. Hardware Durability: The cast-metal trucks will eventually develop pivot-cup fatigue or "slop" under consistent heavy use. [AUDITOR’S SUMMARY] The P-REP Bandito is a performance-focused tool that replaces toy-grade physics with actual material response. It is a high-value asset for transitioning to technical fingerboarding, though its narrow width requires more precision than contemporary setups. Recommended for users looking to trade plastic rigidity for wooden pop.

My son loved it . The material for the grip take is so smooth and nice looking

Just got back into this as I spend some time in airports and other places where there is sick terrain. These boards are wider and super high quality compared those other boards. The layered wood, the trucks and all the way down to the wheels and bearings this thing is sick! Very high quality, great for slowmo videos.

This is a pretty decent starter for people who want a “real” fingerboard. The only complaint I would say is the trucks because the screws are kinda small so the trucks and prone to fall off if u don’t screw them far enough, they also come with plastic bushings like a tech deck so the mobility isn’t all there but you get what u pay for…

Really good it worth buying it I love it alot just took forever to put the pieces 😂 but it so smooth and it good to give it to a kid for Christmas 😊

The board is so sick. I replaced the trucks, wheels and foam tape (tbh not super necessary), but the board is just LOVELY.

Awesome finger board, better than expected
