Our verdict

A ready-to-ride popsicle complete for street and park skating, assembled with named-brand parts. The hard wheels are aimed at smooth concrete, so rough-road cruising is outside its focus.

Overview

A maple deck pressed with epoxy gives the Santa Cruz Screaming Hand complete its pop and its consistent concave and kick. Core trucks, TGM wheels, Amphetamine bearings and Black Diamond griptape come mounted, so it rolls out of the box.

Buying it complete saves matching trucks, wheels and bearings, and every part is named with its specs. Truck width and a rider weight limit are not given, so check those before ordering for a heavier or taller rider.

Who it's for

Street and park skaters, from new riders to regulars, get a classic popsicle setup with a pro-shop build. Riders planning longer commutes over cracked pavement will be better served by a cruiser setup.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Arrives professionally assembled
  • Epoxy pressed maple for lasting pop
  • Named-brand trucks, wheels and bearings
  • Grade 8 steel kingpins and axles
Cons
  • Truck width not listed
  • Hard wheels less suited to rough roads

Performance notes

Pop and kick response come from the epoxy-pressed maple plies and the deck's concave. Hard urethane wheels roll fast on smooth concrete but pass more vibration through on coarse ground, and serviceable rubber shields let the bearings be cleaned.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Santa Cruz Screaming Hand complete sized for kids or adults?

The listing gives the age range as teen, youth and adult, for all skill levels. It does not list a rider weight limit or truck width, so check fit with the seller for a small child or a heavy rider.

Are the wheels on the Santa Cruz Screaming Hand complete made for cruising?

They are 52mm 99A polyurethane wheels, which the seller describes as made for street and park skating. Rough-road cruising is not what the listing targets.

Can the bearings on the Santa Cruz complete be cleaned?

Yes. The Amphetamine bearings use rubber serviceable shields, light synthetic oil and Delrin crowns, per the description.

Is the Santa Cruz Screaming Hand a longboard?

No. It is a popsicle shaped shortboard with concave and kick, built for street and park skating.
