not as cheap as the last Hunting Green board deal and somehow even more ugly :D
but you could paint it and stick some grip tape on top
cheapest Penny board i can find at the moment, good for parts

how much weight can it carry. want to start skateboarding, is this board good enough for beginners?
It's a very small skateboard and probably not the best for beginners.
Penny doesn't state a weight limit but 80kgs seems to be common among plastic boards of this size. Nickel boards would cope better with heavier weights.
plastic boards are flexy so may be difficult for beginners finding their balance. i've skated wood decks almost exclusively. also helps when you get a new board to tighten up the trucks, but not so much that you cannot turn at all.
thanks natman and tdw :)
$67 is more than a penny. Title should be changed
i'll change it for 67 pennies ;)
ughhh i bought the hunting green one, I find it sketchy when going too fast.
Should I get this one? Is it more stable? I mean the nickel that's selling for $76.79

Yes i would say its more suitable for learning. I would spend a little more and get one of the cheap wooden globe or z-flex ones.
Have you tightened the trucks? This will make it "harder" to turn, and thus more stable at high speeds.
more surface area for your feet but i doubt it'll be more stable. look at tightening the trucks and adding stiffer bushings (~100 duro). it'll be cheaper than getting a whole new board but if you are, i'd say get a wood cruiser.
I'd go for the 27inch for $10 or so more.
