Longboard completes should NOT come with 90a+ bushings. A good way to convince kids that skateboards still won't turn.

or... now hear me out...

keep your prices the same, and continue to sell only good products. (though i might buy one of those for my Girlfriend so she can trash that board instead of mine.)

thats it!!! market it as the board for your girlfriends. you can get her the gift of a new longboard, and not break the bank!

decks are alright i guess... you can chop it up to whatever you want.

trucks//wheels make up a longboard moreso than the deck.

Well this just shows that longboarding is becoming more popular if Asian factories are doing production runs. Because we sure as hell aren't going to get any unit sales numbers from the existing manufacturers (or the powers that be on this site.)
