What would be a good skateboard combination?

I want to buy a skateboard, anyone want to help and give out their opinions?

• I have some cash burning in my wallet, and I'm thinking about buying a new skateboard, and I'm tired of using my brother's board. I want to buy some new: Bearings Trucks Wheels and a Board the combination that i'm thinking of is an Enjoi deck, Venture Trucks, Ricta wheels, and Reds bearings. give me Your good combinations and details? I also heard "diamond" bearings are good, any of you have information on that? also information on "thunder" trucks?

• Answer:

  THUNDER trucks are very good compared to ventures because of their weight. thunder trucks are very light and said "the leader of control" I'd totally recommend that. but there are heights you need to know. higher trucks means HIGHER POP and a lot more speed when riding. in LOWER trucks you get more balance because of lower center of gravity thus making it easier to flip the board. but it still depends on what you like. they classify these heights as HI , MID and LO . for a Deck. Enjoi skateboards are good too because they are apart of almost skateboards. But Girl skateboards are sometimes cheaper then enjoi . 7.75' deck is a good size to start. but from my experience , it's feels good to land a trick on an 8" deck. on wheels , Im currently using ricta wheels , sadly im not very happy with the chrome cores so if you're getting rictas , make sure it's an all natural. if not, i suggest Bones Wheels . do not buy spitfire, i hear they chip and crack a lot. darkstar wheels at Girl Wheels works to. Sizes of wheels goes from 50mm-60mm . the smaller the wheel , the lighter (obviously). bigger wheels are often used in cruising around. if you wanna be a technical skater like flip tricks and grinds and stuff, i suggest getting wheels around 52mm or 53mm. on bearings , i really don't recommend Bones Swiss. here is why: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRK0w8P-qy4 i hope you'll understand that. For hardware, Diamond Hardware and Silver Hardware are the most popular of all. they are really good. there are Lengths of hardware too . If you are not using riser pads , get the shortest you could find. it's lighter and very easy to put on and take off. Another thing you should consider is buying completes . they dont really disappoint you but remember to look at the trucks , size of the board and the wheels . but i dont really recommend that.
