Skateboarding for kids-Morfboard 4-1 Review + Giveaway

I think I must have told my readers over a dozen times now about the fond memories I have of the outdoors when I was a kid. Way back when, when technology wasn’t as widely known or used, my family and I spent every available moment we could outdoors: rain or shine. If the sun was out we rode bikes, climbed trees, explored our local parks, etc. If it was raining, heck, we did the same things. We adored everything nature and the outdoors had to offer us. I loved trying to skateboards as well so I was always on the hunt for girls skateboards. Skateboarding for kids was always the rage and still is, these days!Skateboarding for kids

These days, I can honestly say that not much has changed. Although we do allow our kids an allotted amount of screen time per day, after school work and chores are completed, the bulk of their time is spent in free play outside. Together and even individually we share everything my own family did together, including: biking, skating, swimming, climbing, hiking, running and more. We aren’t afraid of sunshine, fresh air or sweat, not in the least and we look forward to the time together as a family.Skateboarding for kids

I’ve had many of my mommy friends come to me and ask how I’ve managed to get my entire family on board with being so athletically inclined as well as so willing to simply venture outside. My answer is always simple, I started them early, didn’t introduce as many toys or gadgets and instead, started taking them outdoors. They loved it then and still do to this day. Especially now, due mostly to the fact that they’ve been obsessed with our latest test product from Morfboard.

Skatingboarding for kids:

Morfboard was conceptualized and is now run by a group of individuals who grew up very similarly to myself. Well, if I had been more deeply involved in the skating world that is. These guys literally would rush home every day, shed their school essentials on the nearest surface, grab their skate gear and run. Even now, all grown up and with families of their own, they still make time to indulge in their childhood passion.

And THAT is why Morfboard was created. These action sports enthusiasts wanted more children to have that kind of freedom. To be able to have something they loved so much that they spent every waking minute they could spare, going outside and doing it. Knowing that getting into that kind of lifestyle could be tough, as well as pricey, the action driven minds behind the company created the Morfboard system.

I have to say, as much as my kids love this one, I think I may love it even more. Morfboard truly made their innovative system fun for all ages, versatile and affordable. So, not only can kiddos skate using the Morfboard system but they can also scoot, balance, AND bounce. All this, at an affordable price while providing endless hours of outdoor fun!

To break down the Scoot/Skate system as easily as possible, it goes a little something like this: For just $99 one can purchase the Scoot/Skate combo which comes as one board that has many possibilities for all year round fun. The innovative outdoor board has the capability to transform in seconds, from scooter to skateboard and with the help of a super simple LRT Lock & Release Technology, you can drop an Xtension (either the bounce or balance option) into the board to transform it again, locking into into place with the Flex Trigger.girls skateboards

Other features to mention when talking about the Morfboard system include but aren’t limited to:

  • Durable cast aluminum alloy front and rear skate trucks for riding and grinding.
  • 53mm Urethane Wheels for smoother & faster rides.
  • Performance ABEC 5 Skate Bearings for obtaining higher speeds.
  • 3 position Adjustable Scoot T-bar with super grip handles.
  • Lean to steer wishbone front scoot truck for sharper turning.
  • Rear wheel with inset pressure brake to stop on a dime.custom skateboards
Going through all of the specifics now, it’s hard to believe we all didn’t seriously hurt ourselves as children but seeing how much fun my kids have had since we received the Morfboard system, makes me realize that as long as they’re having fun and aren’t in danger, if action sports is what they want to spend their summer doing, then bring it on!custom skateboards

    I like that the company is trying to bring skateboarding back to kids by making it simple, affordable, and fun.

  3. Tamra Phelps says

    I really like how this can adapt to the skill level of the kid. Little ones can use it with the handles, but later they can ride it like a regular skateboard.

  6. Lauryn R says

    This is such a cool board, I love that it has so many uses! I really like the Bounce Xtension.

  12. elizabeth miller says

    I love that this grows with your child and that they can use it as a variety of toys.

  17. Kelly Grant says

    I love that its a four’fer. within minutes my boy could go from rolling to bouncing.

  20. Jennifer Hedden says

    I love that one board allows you to do so many different things! This is so awesome! I think the bounce extension would be a blast. I know my nieces would have a good time with the Morfboard! Thank you for this cool giveaway!

  22. Tamika Sanchez says

    This could be a great option for my child with low muscle tone and gross motor skills. She needs to work on her balance and this offers so many fun options in one toy! Thanks for introducing this!

  23. Kylie P says

    I like that the scooter is a lean to steer design and that it has the balance option to make it an indoor/outdoor toy.

  24. Kaz A says

    I love that it’s adaptable to different ages! I can see all four of my kids enjoying this (ages 2-9). I also love the bouncy additions on the website.. looks like a lot of fun!!

  30. stephanie sullivan says

    I like the wheel lock technology and the colors that the board comes in! The kids will love this.

  33. Lisa b says

    I like that the company provides different options for one product so that kids have many different ways of using it and wont get bored so easily.

  36. Tiffany Banks says

    I love with the patented Lock and Release Technology, you can transform your ride in seconds.

  49. Jessica Lodge says

    I love the different ways it could be used. My 3 youngest children could all use it, which is nice.

  54. Kerry P says

    I love the material it is made of. I love that it has enough flex to absorb impact. Chiropractors are expensive!

  62. Janine Hwang says

    I like the scooter function for my daughter and then the skate function for my son, who’s bigger!

  63. Katy says

    I’m so happy I found this post! Our four year old wants to skateboard so badly, and all we can tell her is to keep practicing her scooter and one day she will get to try. I’d love this for her because she could really use it to progress with her skills!

  65. donna porter says

    I really like all the options for kids with the MorfBoard. My nephew could benefit from this because it helps with balance.

  67. Carolyn D says

    I love that it is adjustable and comes in a variety of nice colors. I think my nephew would love this and he would be able to pass it on to his little sister in a couple of years.
