What skateboard is suitable for me?

What is the best skateboard to get for a 15 year old learning how to skateboard and where should i get it?

  • I'm 15 and learning how to skateboard. I've been using a friends, but decided to get my own. So what kind of skateboard is best? And what store should i get it at? I don't really want anything to serious like a 75 dollar board since i'm just learning. Thanks

  • Answer:

    just the board its $60 but since ur a beginner buy a blank for $30. then u have to buy trucks: about $20 each, bearings: i recommend red for $15 and wheels for about $20-$30. and griptape $7 so yea more than 75. dont buy wal mart board

Go out, and get your self an ATM, Mini-Logo, or Blank board. There actually pretty good, and there around 35 dollars or less, then the trucks will be about 30, and wheels the same, hardware 2, griptape free at most dealers. So youre basically getting a good deck for the same price of a pro board and youre choice of EITHER trucks or wheels with tax. The boards really arent that much of a tradeoff, I know people way better than some others that ride pro 65 dollar decks that buy these boards because while learning new tricks they tend to snap boards, so its easier to replace. Good Luck =)

you could go for probably for your first board it shouldnt be a big brand and pro model mine was a mongoose it sucked but then after 5 months I got a plan B so you could go with my wal-mart board suggestin or you could a cheap board thats at dixsportingoods like a world industeries board. GOOD LUCK HOPE YA LIKE UR NEW BOARD WHAT EVER YOU END UP GETTING
