i would buy it again
i will say, i was skeptical about this. i got back into longboarding recently, but i have always had an issue about stopping safely. i saw this and thought why not give it a shot. it took me 10 minutes to install it. mounted up pretty easily. and i like how the foot pedal is also the adjuster for the brake. you can screw or unscrew it to adjust the height and for brake wear. it isn't uncomfortable, and its on a part of the board that i dont really step on so i done worry about snapping my foot on it. i have gone down some steep streets with this and it has stopped me safely. some advise, when stopping on a steep hill or when going to fast, try to lean back onto the pedal, it helps to add your weight to it, stops faster. i dont get any wobble when braking so its nice and firm. i honestly thought id wear through it pretty fast, but its not bad at all. this brake pad should last me a while. the only annoying thing is that it makes a chattering sound when going over rough streets but it doesnt effect the stopping ability. brakes do seem to wear faster on rough roads, but thats understandable. i have even had my friend who is a great longboarder try this out and he thinks it is pretty neat. i can keep up with him now when i need to slow down around corners. if you are looking for a good brake that will help you stop safely then i would recommend this. would i buy it again? yes i would, i just wish it was a bit cheaper in price.
