Calling it "fun" and "interesting," Hobotaku's reviewer also concedes that
Air Gear Volume 1 is chock full of fan service... which may or may not be a good thing.
Aaron Auzins praises
Air Gear for "taking (manga) to new heights, literally." Noting its hip mix of action and comedy, Auzins concludes that
Air Gear is "first-class ticket for any reader looking for a wild ride."
Dan Polley gives
Air Gear Volume 4 a "B+" rating, noting that it's a "non-stop bowl of action," albeit with some explicit content that's a bit "questionable."
Anime News Network reviewer Carlo Santos gets to Air Gear Volume 5 still admiring "its street-gang attitude, over-the-top stylishness, and of course, brazen flashes of fanservice," but starts to wonder if it's the Air Treck matches are becoming formulaic.
