Also, the middle part of the upper surface of the skateboard is smooth, not roughened, which could cause the user to slip and suffer injuries. In addition the protruding ends of the screws and the edges of the bearing surface are sharp, which may cause injuries. The product does not comply with the relevant European standard EN 13613.
