Reddit reviews Skateboard Longboard Nose Guard and Tail Guard(Black)

From left to right, the boards are the Tan Tien, Dervish Sama, Icarus, and the Boosted Board. Tan Tien and Dervish Sama are more of my cruising boards with the Icarus a carving board. I mostly ride the Dervish and my wife rides the Tan Tien (since it's smaller). Also bought and returned the Loaded Overland (didn't like it as much)

The stands are the guitar stands from Amazon mentioned here a lot. Here is the link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LBKFYUO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I tried out different trucks and wheels and found the orangatang 80a to be the best for me (same as on the Boosted Board). The 2 on the left have Caliber II trucks. I like the Caliber trucks since they spring back to neutral position quickly which is great for cruising and is very stable. The Icarus is meant for carving so it has looser Paris v2 trucks. I tried the 80mm Orangatang Kegal wheels on these boards and always managed to get wheelbite (and thus crashing) so I went with 70mm wheels and can ride without worrying

Nose and tail guards also from Amazon. Highly recommended as these went flying into the curb a few times and no damage to the board: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XGJ8PHM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s03?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Hope this helps!

Yo this is such good advice! I have a Maestro as well, and the first couple major dings really stung, and I was pretty bummed. But it ultimately still rides the same, and I would rather have taken the hits and had fun than been all dainty all the time. That being said, I have reglued delams, DIY'd fiberglass and epoxy wrapped around the edges, nose, and tail... there's stuff like this https://www.amazon.com/Skateboard-Longboard-Nose-Guard-Black/dp/B06XGJ8PHM/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1520644901&sr=8-2-spons&keywords=longboard+nose+and+tail+guard&psc=1 never tried it because it looks like it would get in the way more than anything, but it exists.. At the end of the day, boards get torn up, best to just accept it for what it is and have a blast.

1. Board Blazers, The Original LED Underglow Lights for Skateboards, Longboards
   These are the lights I seem to have seen mentioned by most users here and on Youtube video reviews I've seen.
   
   
2. Skateboard Longboard Nose Guard and Tail Guard These are black tail and nose guards I see being easy to install. Soon as my board is here, I'll be getting these.
   
   
3. As someone else already pointed out, Flatland-3D also makes some popular crash guards. Not sure why people aren't posting about/buying the ones sold by Boosted themselves.
   
   
4. Headlights by Shredlights are probably the most popular right now.

They fit pretty tight I have not had them fall off or wear out yet and I have had them for about a week and I got them from amazon
