What is the best type of skateboard?

What type of skateboard should I get?

  • I'm interested in learning how to skateboard. Should I get a "regular" skateboard or a longboard? I want a longboard but I also want to get something that'd be good ...show more

  • Answer:

    Well for a regular skateboard i'd suggest a black label deck. I had the chopped flame series for two years and it out lived my elements, chocolates, and zeros. It got ran over by my girlfriends sunfire and it only broke a few of the plies and it was still very ridable. Just a suggestion

i would start off with a regular long boards arent really good for any thing except beach cruiseing. i have 3 longboards and 4 regular boards so im pleased also if regular you cant go wrong with element. and if you go longboard dont get anything from big 5 or any places lik thatgo to a beach store.

a longboard would be easier but easier doesn't mean anything, you can't do tricks on a longboard like you can a regular skateboard and if all you're doing is using it to skate around a regular skateboard would be just as easy. I do both and I hardly longboard I think its boring but lots of people like it so try it you may love it. Have fun

First of all get some really good insurance since you'll need it if you're going to skate. I'd go small and work your way up since it's more managable. Good luck, but as a mother I'd freak if my daughter wanted to skate board.

Longboarding and skateboarding are totally different. Just try both then buy what you like better.

Go for Longer one bcoz, If u feel to change the board frequently dont go for Long one. But I have long one and regular too. Regular doesnt fwork when ur weight is too much. n Longer space for strecthing legs is gr8. So u can roll and rock

its ok if ur a newbie there`s actually no difference between them its just heavier. when i started i got a longboard and it worked perfectly well.
