• Answer:

  There's lots of great boards for your size in the price range you mentioned. Earthwing Skateboards out of brooklyn makes an awesome all around deck called the Supermodel that is only $100 for just the deck. Other good decks to start out on for your budget would be the Comet Voodoo Doll, the Landyachtz Chief or the Eastside Longboards Rocky Bomber. The deck is usually the biggest variable for price. Wheels/trucks and bearings usually add up to be about $80-$100 more than the deck. The people at Motion Boardshop really know what they're talking about and can help you find the right board. You can hit them up for live chat on their website and chat with an expert.
