Ooh je bent Nederlands haha ik heb mijn eerste skateboard paar dagen geleden gekocht =D komt vandaag binnen:)
but the real question is if this complete board is better? beacause if you buy a board wich kosts complete 80 bucks, and the deck has the same quality of what the company sells noarmaly (which should be clear). Then it has to be some shitty bearings and no name trucks. or am i wrong? and for real, it got his reasons why the most skaters are skating trucks like indis or ventures. wich are mostly quality build.
I’m a college student and I want to start learning, skateboarding seems very challenging but a lot of fun! Would it be too late for me to start? I want to purchase a cruiser? Any Opinions?
I’m 13 121 pounds 5’8 tall shoe size 10 and my board size is usually 8 what setup do you guys recommend?
why is it that when I tried ordering a skateboard from cal-7 it says everything is sold out? did anyone have this happen to them or is it just me?
What about amazon because my big brother got one from amazon and he rides it all the time and he’s had it for 3 years
I’ve always wanted to skate since i was a kid. But my mom never let me do it. Now I’m 20 and i feel like I’m too late to even learn a simple trick haha. So i just watch videos on youtube and just imagine i was riding the board.
man i want to skate but im ok with scooters but i have a shitty decathlon one
bro if u dont need one can you sell me one? i am a bad skater who destroyed his board today:(
I somehow got my first skateboard which was a complete for 70$ I just built my own for 150
Do you know any discount codes for cal7? Im a buy a board soon
People keep talking about the higher quality you get from building a board yourself.. there is no quality difference if you’re buying the exact same parts individually tho.
Am I missing something? Someone explain if I did lmao
Terrible video… using no name brands compared to named deck companies…
anyone else skate in skinny jeans and jordan’s all the time
why are people so intimidated by skaters, we’re like accepting asf. if ur getting ur first board soon just tell them ur a beginner and they’ll help u out as much as they can
I bought one in this quarantine and i had rode ir twice, I like it but I’m so scared of falling and also I’m 25 and I feel like I would get judged from the younger skaters ahaha I know is stupid. I hope I can learn this year
U are a psycho BTW left handed people are a no go on the internet
It isn’t hard to believe. If you want better performance it comes at a larger cost
The only problem is that I don’t want the 52mm wheels that most completes come with. So, if I buy bigger wheels and risers I’m back up there in price.
I buy the orange camo pants a year ago, now idk if to wear them or not…
Holy shit dude. I clicked away so fast because of your annoying intro. That’s scaring people off
My first prebuilt was an almost board I landed my first Ollie kick flip and pop shove it on it and cost me 60 bucks on eBay
Ik im late but i wanna know do all the parts of the skateboard come with the skateboard
my setup is 8.5 deck 52 trucks independent wheels spitfire bearings mini-logo
hardware diamond
Built it myself
Cal7skate has well priced sk8boards,but EVERY SINGLE BOARD is sold out!sad..
I’ve had my pre built board for about 9 months and I’m starting to think it would’ve been better if I built it myself because all other skate boards I see are different and look and feel a bit better.
I skate but i have a broken deck and stores are closed so i have to just watch vids
I went to Zumiez and met this guy named Eli. He said he had been skating for 24+ years and he was hella nice and gave me some tips
I was debating whether to buy a prebuild From zumiez Or just build my own a whole complete board cost 89.99 but to buy my own board it was 49.99 for a board 109.99 for trucks wheels and All the tools and bearings so what what is the right move to make I’m still trying to figure this out.
My first board is an old Walmart board I found in the garage, bought new trucks, wheels, and bearings for it and now it actually skates alright.
My parents let me get that skateboard you have if 2 wheels years ago but refused to let me get a normal skateboard cause it wasn’t safe in what mind does a 2 wheeled skateboard is safer than a 4 wheeled. Well I am 18 now and imma buy one
there doesn’t exist any skateboard store in my country that’s why it’s so hard
my birthday is in nine more days! ahh im getting a skateboard on my birthday so yeahhh. uhh follow my Instagram if you want @_tkis_
i had a skateboard once (from my older brother) when i was 10 and i only rode it 1 day but my mom threw it away because she was scared of me breaking a bone so here i am 4 years later beginning my dad to get me one
An addition: I got a $60 longboard on amazon complete, to make sure I liked and could do it at a good price. I added better bearings, and bigger wheels to compensate for rough pavement here, and i’d say, You can buy some of the affordable starting points, then replace parts as you outgrow/use up the cheap ones. I can’t say if this is true for Popsicle stick boards for doing tricks up in the air, but for my needs, i’ve been pretty happy.
Should I buy a used a skateboard? Or is it better to buy a brand new one?
It’s so hard to wear long sleeve shirts and pants because I live where the average temperature from March to September is 110 ☹️
Dont buy a complete just go to a skate shop and ask if they can build a board for you and ask for the parts you want
i’ve been skating for a while (6-7 years) but I haven’t touched my old board in a while and want to buy a new one should I just get a complete and go from there or should I just build a set up (keeping in mind I’m not really trying to go over £125)?
can you make me one for free I live in Roswell 1504 north Washington
skateboarding is the Cheapest hobby ever…..$160 is a JOKE……I spend more than that on a weekend! Fucking kids got NO idea how Easy you got it…….20 years ago, skateshops were Harder to find, No GPS, no internet and HAD to order boards by mail! Fucking people don’t appreciate shit! I wish we could get wiped back to the 1990’s……see you cry then!
I just got one 3 days ago and its a lot of fun but I fell today so kinda scared cuz my knee is bleeding
Great job guys. Best video on skateboard guide so far since other idiots make 99 videos over the nearly same thing but to make more money.
Greedy doesn’t win shit. Great job putting all into 1 video.
what if i don’t have a local skate shop? i’ve looked and all we have is zumiez which i’ve heard not to buy from
Cal 7 seems very legit! I went on the site, pretty damn cheap
I would say in Denmark the pre built boards are cheap. I am getting a decent board for 54 dollars. And the ‘shitty ones’ cost about 39 dollars. So if you are visiting Denmark visit SkatePro. They have decent boards for a fair price.
I am girl commenting from my brlthers account.I’m 5’3 and between 56 to 58 kg which size for me?
Unfortunately I can only get a skateboard at the vans store that’s 20 minutes from my house
DC’s are also good shoes for skateboarding and I know that sounds like something Rob dierdek would say but there pretty good
I started watching you a few weeks ago and I started skating because if yo GG
imagine not having a skateshop in your area so you have to go to zumiez or vans……… DEFINITELY couldn’t be me
i want to buy a skateboard but i’m scared. do i pick a board and then the employee set it up for me choosing the wheels and the others or i’m the one choosing it and then i ask them to set it up? does it make sense?
I’m about to get my first skateboard and I am soooo hyped:D
Yep skateboarding can suck I’m still in pain because I fell while on my skateboard.
WTF. Why do you have to do all the choppy editing and the whole thing with a fisheye lens. WTF.
At what point do you offer advice?
Does anyone recommend me buying a board from amazon and what size should I get for someone who is 6ft and has a shoe size of 11
Could you please give me a link for that own-built board on the thumbnail? Thanks!
Sick Nicola Tesla deck.
It does kinda suck that in An area where Mark Appleyard blew up the one local skate shop shut down.
Now only zumiez is available.
I dont have a local skate shop and the only park is a hour away
I only want to buy online cause I’m too shy to go to my local skateshop…it feels like they’ll judge me hajaha
Ik heb nu een complete 2 maanden maar ik wil n groter deck (hij is nu 7.25 en ik wil rond de 7.75 of 8) maar moet ik dan andere trucks halen of kunnen die gewoon t zelfde blijven?
Cancel culture doesn’t even realize this kid can’t even tre, let alone kick flip… Hope they dont catch wind because the piggybacking of this toddler on the skate community is by far disgusting. I could see differently if he posted his own progression on this channel but the success has literally haulted him from progressing. Does anyone else see what I see?
I just wanna buy one on lazada or shopee I never seen my country having a skate shop
What if I’m a poor teenager and can’t afford a $163 skateboard? Then what??
Where should I buy a board if I don’t have a local skate shop??
I just bought one and my parents didn’t know I’m getting it soon
Can i please get a skateboard i dont have one and im trying to star skating
He said a cruiser isn’t a skateboard
Come on man be nice to people who like cruisers and other boards
Did this man really say that vans are the most durable skate shoe? Every real one knows eS and emericas are the best
I just got mine and I learned how to Ollie but of course it needs improvement
I wanna go to a skatepark but I’m so trash and I need a skating buddy
I just bought a cal7 deck and griptape, trying out a new brand
Where did you buy your skateboard becouse I’m living in Netherland too but I don’t now where too buy it
I honestly don’t know how to skateboard but this year I Hope I do and I’m 15 and I wanted skateboard ever since 2nd grade so ya
Bruno you should try out one of those dinghy boards i wanna get one but i want a trustworthey review first
It seems rly cool tho its a cruiserboard that can aparently do tricks rly well and they have alot of different models
Its called dinghy by landyachts
Is https://www.amazon.com/FLIP-SKATEBOARDS-HKD-Complete-Skateboard/dp/B00ITZBPXY Good for a starter?I really hope someone replies
Are the size of the trucks supposed the same width of the board
I don’t have a local shop, the closest shop is an hour away in the city..
i ordered my board online because there’s no skateshop in my area but once i need a new deck im gonna go to the next city that has one. i cant wait!!
I got my first board from a pawn shop. It was bought for me as a gift but he got it for over $100 and it was a longboard, not a skateboard. I got my newer board for like 50$ and its a really good quality board. In other words, I was totally ripped off =(
Yea zumiez and vans are a good place to buy skateboard decks
What if my board is 8.25 and I wear size 5.5 shoe? Is that too big
Closest skate shop for me is like 100km away so…
And btw their decks cost like 30-50 euros
please can any one hellp me to buy my fisrt skateboard online with a low price
it really doesn’t matter if you skate a prebuilt or custom. the only thing that matters is if you skate on it.
The only skate shop I have around here is zumiez and it’s like a 40 minute drive, but I know that the people there love and enjoy skating. They have a custom skate rack that one guy made because he welds alot, my almost 5 year best friend works there and the only reason I know him is because he worked at zumiez and offered to teach me. Now I love skating and am very passionate about it, the only reason he works there is because he wanted to work with skating and it was the only thing around. (Sorry for the paragraph)
I just started skating a month ago and I got my board for $70 on skatewarehouse.con is that a good website to buy boards from?
Get like thieves trucks, reds bearings, the cheapest wheels and cheapest board you can get(But obviously from a good company).
That way you can actually afford to skate. Trucks, bearings and wheels will be with you until you start doing more advanced tricks then you might have to change your wheels now and then or bearings if they break.
I’m about to buy my first board, a complete, Abec-7’s.. independent trucks I think and 52mm wheels size 8 enuff deck GLHF
I’m 15 and everyone around me has started to skate, what do I get on an 80£ budget??
Hey so don’t worry about paying 162 for a board. If you head over to http://www.routeone.co.uk you can get a high quality full complete for less than 50 bucks.
If you are over seas you may need to pay extra for shipping.

Just bought a 20 pound skateboard for my little bro (wanted to see it mysself to ahah), i dont know what the difference is between it and a good skatebaord… can anyone help?
The roads in my area aren’t very smooth but I also might wanna learn a few tricks. So I’m not sure if I want a cruiser or a regular board? (I’m trying to save up money to get my first board)
Timmeh didnt get a discount. he will not come back for parts… sadface
I mean I’m way to broke to buy a board, and I sometime go on my friends board but they aren’t my type. I mean I’m pretty good and started not to long ago but I hope I’ll get a board in no time.
Too much talking. Make it more succinct. Show rather than tell.
i was gonna buy a cal-7 complete since i’m just now getting into skating but they’re sold out:/ they’ve been sold out for a while, i was hoping you could maybe talk to them into re-stocking
I’m a scooter rider so my stuff doesn’t break lol XD
Him: “You wanna be trendy, you wanna be cool-“
Me: plans on wearing a helmet and kneepads so I don’t break myself
I need help getting a skateboard complete cuz I am new to this and my budget is 50 bucks. Anyone help me plz

When there aren’t any skate shop around you and almost no skateparks
I Bought a skateboard yesterday and I did a Ollie in the afternoon
yeah bro, everyone at my local “skate” shops are just teens who don’t give a fuck about actually skating
After watching a lot of videos on the subject (especially yours), I decided to buy my first skateboard to go / come back from my job. Thanks for all the infos!
Long time ago I saved money for a summer to get a baker deck, independent trucks, spitfire wheels and idk bearings
My custom was $200 I love it and now I can’t go a day without skating
Me watches while having a weathered Walmart board with no grip tape and a splitting deck
I saw this girl ska8 i rlly like ( girl is a brand ) should i buy it?
“Dont buy Walmart skateboards” me with a walmart skateboard

Me: well if u think abt it every single person who knows how to skate starts as a noob
hi!! i need some advice. so i want to start skating but im having troubles picking my board size. im 5’1 in height. would i be okay as a beginner to ride a 8.00 and or a 8.25?
https://www.zumiez.com/santa-cruz-sunset-dot-7-5-skateboard-complete.html
I know im late to ask but im looking to buy a complete, iv been riding for about 3 to 4 months now, and i saw how the cal boreds are cheeper are they still good
i went on a halfpipe in skinny jeans (cuz the pants i use for skating were dirty) and i fell like on my whole right side of my body and it hurt like a bitch
i though i broke my shoulder
i have a full made skatboard but for me i have a full made one becase i like them and
there beter for me becase the have what i whant a 53mm whels and a 28 inc boar and
the rest are REAL silver
7:20 if i don’t have a local skate shop, what makes you think i have a local VANS store
Buy a complete if u dont know if youll keep skating. Build ur own if you know its skate or die
Ngl I love your vids but man ur like a walking talking cal7 skate plug
Ok everyone ever realize that now skateboarding is cool but it’s been here for years now and now y’all think it’s cool chill…….
lol why were you skating with your bag on? cant imagine that being comfortable or helpful to your learning. anyways for me when i started i just took my brother’s old used board which he got from his friend. really crappy hand me down and just skated by myself all around town and eventually it felt comfortable. putting in time is really the only way to develop the muscle memory and general comfort and posture in riding. eventually i tried tricks after a few weeks in. its always really good to build a strong balance foundation before you even try anything. i see so many newcomers too impatient they start trying tricks because they think thats what you’re supposed to do and just end up looking awkward as fuck attempting kickflips or ollies when they can barely kickturn or roll around.
Im a girl and I usually wear Jeggings a lot in general as I find it comfortable. Would you say that is suitable for skating?
I started watching your videos and wanted to start skating. So, naturally, I asked my mom to get me one. I said I wanted a complete from Cal7. But what does she get me? A Walmart longboard. A fucking. Walmart. Longboard.
Well I was told that any flexible and sturdy shoes work so I just got underarmer. I usually only skate on flat ground instead of doing tricks and there perfect
I am a skater and a girl lol but I’ve notice loads of people joining the skating community during corona. But like I’ve noticed loads of girls in specific and skating is such an empowering sports. So moral of the story if you wanna learn how to skate just do it and if your scared f the fear cause you only live once. If you made it this far I hope you enjoy the rest of your day and yolo life:)
where was this video 2 months ago when i didn’t buy my skateboard…. still like my board✌ just hate the bearings i got rush 7s
I dont know if I’m gonna be able to skateboard i. gotta get rid of my knee pain
for some reason i always get so shy when i go to skate shops
Yes, I won’t let you down I’m getting my first board from cal7:D
I literally live a few houses down from a well known skate shop. I have a hand me down 10 year old board that sucks. I managed to learn to Ollie and can almost heel flip but it’s hard cuz the board is so small. I wanna go in and build one but I literally have no idea, can someone recommend me some wheels, trucks, and I’m going to get an 8’
i got a skateboard yesterday and i almost fell on my face twice
Jaja I buy my firts one on waltmart and cost me 14 dollars
I started with a walmart board lol and then I leveled up and got a actual board and learned to Ollie and now I set up all my boards
My moms boyfriend found a skateboard outside and took it. Before he did he left it outside and no one took it so he gave it to me.
ти българин ли си защото видях един от софийските скейт паркове в видеото ти ако не си българин
Bruh when I was 10 I broke my arm badly twice in a year, both times my arm was all bent and the first time the bone stuck out
My first board was an 8 so I can’t relate with ppl who skate 775s
I liked that song in the beginning very Dank just like my memes:)
Your channel is about to boom. Economic decline means more kids skateboarding. All these kids are going to stop playing fortnite and putting sticks w wheels in their hands. I look forward to seeing your growth.
Jeezz if you guys come here to the Philippines its probably cheap for y’all cause the highest price you can get to is at least around at 5000 to 6000

Hi i’m a beginner. My height is 5’3. Age is 13. Size of my feet is 7. Wanna do tricks someday. I need help here
Mall shops aren’t real skateboarding shops
Independent shops are way better
Never had a bad experience, always super friendly and just talk some shit when coming through
I wanted a skateboard since 3rd grade and I finally told my mom after like 4-5 years or so but she’s afraid of the idea:,|
this is the nature of capitalism, larger companies have the advantage of buying in bulk. what you pay $40 for, they buy for $4 and make a complete product for cheaper than you can make
hight 5.8 and wight 59kg which one for me??? plz suggest me
i cannot recommend any chocolate boards, thats what i have now and they wear down extremely fast
honestly tiktok is one of the reasons I bought a skateboard.
I’m about to get my first board and I’m nervous why? I feel like the people at my local shop are gonna judge me or I’m not gonna get the right stuff
Definitely buy insoles, some kind of protective gloves, pads, and a helmet. Insole will protect your feet while you’re chilling learning to ride. Pads and the helm for trying new stuff.
Also you will get hurt and injuries no matter what. Trust me, it wouldn’t be 1/100 as fun without the danger.
What size board do you recommend for a 10 yr old girl, she’s pretty tall and wears an 8 women’s shoe???
what is more better?
wood or plastic-made board?(sorry if RIP english)
I want a skateboard, but my mom said im a girl and yeah:)). Idk how am i supposed to buy it my self because i have no money:))
that guy in the skatertrainer ad looks kinda like Keeran or Devon. aka Agony
For people that want to buy a skateboard but can’t because the stores are closed, buy one online. Quarantine is the best time to learn new things, don’t wait until it’s over when all your free time is gone
me wearing a tshirt and shorts because my knees heal themselves but my clothes don’t
Hey… I want the panda shown at 2:50… how do I get that…
I weigh about 110kgs ( 242lbs ), what complete board would you recommend for my weight?
Is a big 5 skateboard a good quality of bad quality skateboard?
if you just want to roll around the a cheap board is good. just watch out for cracks
Dude it’s summer like I can’t wear long sleeve shirts and pants in the Bronx it hits like 85 casually maybe it will work if I put like four ice cubes two for each leg
I’m 29yrs old and 136.6 lbs. what skateboard do you recommend? Don’t know much about skateboard.
Fun fact: reds barring a cost more money than Walmart boards
i really wanna start skating again but i cant buy a board there are no skate shops in my country and i live in a poor family:/
I always see people skateboarding and wish that was me ✨
In the country i live in there isn’t skateshop and skatepark, hell you got lucky if you find smoth concrete so my only option is to buy it online bc i can only find skateboards in chinese stores
Does anybody pay attention to their trucks width along with the board width? For example, would it be any bit harder for a seasoned skater to use 7.75″ width trucks on say an 8.25 board? In most videos I see of good skaters, they sometimes accidentally land in a primo and the board is perfectly on its side, suggesting their trucks and board width match. However I have had multiple boards assembled for me and realize later that my trucks width is much smaller than my board itself. If I put my board on it’s side it will stay, while tilted. But if I ever attempted to land in a primo I’m sure it would fall over, back to it’s wheels.
I am looking to buy an element skateboard it’s a complete skate because it’s cheaper and it’s my first board so do you think element complete skateboards are good to start with or should i look for another brand? (sorry if i don’t speaker english well in off i only talk french)

im 12 and im a size 7, i wanna get a skateboard mainly for riding around but i also want to learn tricks in the future, so what do you recommend? (i have experience because i ride a penny board)

You look like you are moving your lips and not saying anything but I would hear it later after seeing your lips move. In other words, you need to work on the audio because this video is a little slow. Cheers, Flood!
I’m 16 years old coming up for 17, 6’1″ and weigh 12 1/2 stones. I know how to ride a skateboard and I’m quite experienced at it, but I’m looking to buy one that’ll last long, go pretty fast when I want to and NOT use for stunts. Generally use it on pavements that are decently smooth but aren’t the best of course so I needs to be durable. I don’t really want to spend much on it, so what do you suppose I do?
Bruh my parents are gonna take me to a skateshop that’s in Venice or something and I’m too nervous. I have zero confidence lmao
Do trucks come with hardware when you buy them online??
Respond pls
i wanted to buy own-built board from skate warehouse but the shipping to europe was like 100 dollars. WOW.
Highly recommend anyone thinking about learning to skate it’s been so fun to have something constructive to do
I have a skateboard, but this stupid kid went and grabbed mine and tried using it, he then proceeded to make comments how girls shouldn’t ride skateboards, and he just left, and i had realized he scraped DOG POOP from his shoe on my griptape, now i lost confidence and effort on learning.
I want to try skating with a complete skateboard wo I kinda need help sense I have no idea how to skate.
I want to buy but my parents don’t agree. There are skating shops where I live so I have to order it. There are skating parks where I live. And the reason is because I live on an island.:/
I would rather always make my own board I wouldn’t get a pre built board, but the bearings don’t suck on pre built boards they just make it really tight so loosen the nut on the wheel, and the truck on pre built boards truck kinda suck but they are lighter so either way I would make my own
Is about $70 a good price for a starting board? I found one online and it has good reviews so likeeee
your hairs so pretty and u seem so nice I wanna be your friend lol
I LOVED seeing someone else around my age picking up a skateboard, and trying to learn to skate because im in the same spot in this very long process lol. HAVE FUN!
For my beginners buy a complete for you first board the from there go to hole sale deck websites and get blanks but use your old trucks and and wheels the only other expense after that would be bearings wich are cheap buy bones bearing btw
Wait….. why did i get a recommended about a girl getting a skateboard on a channel with 700 subs
I have a big size of deck my gf likes to play with my deck my deck is so big
Just don’t buy skate decks from non skatestores for example don’t buy it from target or like walmart

I’ve long boarded for a little over two years and I just got a skateboard a month ago and it was a complete because I’m lazy. But the wheel bite is terrible. And it’s a 7.75 any suggestions to help with wheel bite?
useless video with ZERO information…good that you told us who sponsors you and showed us all your boards that’s exactly what people want to know when the title says “How to Buy a Skateboard.”
I have a ripstick but i can’t ride it near bc the streets are horrible
I found a 58 dollar full set, well here in Philippines it is very cheap, but there is also sale so I just have to pay 30 dollars or 1,500 pesos, do you guys approve?
I’m 21 160 lbs. any recomendations? Don’t know much about skateboards
Everyone who’s saying “I don’t want an incomplete skateboard how do you get a fully built one” it’s called getting a new setup ♂️

Always wanted to skate but can’t get a board
Can be cheaper if u buy all the parts from a local skate shop
I would be so scared to go in a skate shop because there’s a bunch of skaters and I feel like there gonna call me a poser or whatever u call it
122 pounds
5.7 height
Foot size 12 men’s.
Age 14
What size is best for me?
What is the best board brand for me?
Btw I am a beginner.:p
I’m sad because once quarantine is over no one is going to want to skate and it makes me REALLY SAD (also) is it just me who sees that her bearings are too wheels for her (I just think that because it moves/ turn so easily which can make her lose balance quickly (not saying the guy didn’t do a good job)
Idk if the completes have different parts than the parts from cal 7 but the cal 7 complete valor is lit and pretty good. Just get better bearings. Fr tho cal 7 is my go to
Tip from a pro skater= don’t hold the skateboard by the trucks big poser moove
i have a youtube video on how to skateboard over on my channel Da Godster
I just bought my first longboard from a skate shop online called Barking Spyder Pro Shop. I ordered the San Clemente Longboard 39” Tribal Double Drop Complete Set for $163. I just want to casually ride a longboard not for tricks.

Just look at own built boards as an investment because you’ll probably be buying good stuff for your board that will last a long time
But when you’re buying a Skate board online you Can’t tell if it’s a scam or not
im 5 foot tall and i skate an 8.3, and i still want a bigger board
I don’t think Zumiez is bad, they have good stuff in there. but the workers try SO HARD to upsell you and act “cool” in my opinion it’s annoying af.
Theirs a certain feeling you get when you put your own board together
At the start
My guy loves a board slide all his boards centres are warn too the wood
My first board was a full element complete and it was fucking fire. Loved it, I also bought a jacket and after 3 years it’s still almost brand new. Would recommend Element
can you help me what deck size should i get? my feet size 38cm
Why do these GEN Z losers think its cool to have a fucking perm with their fade. It’s ugly as FUCK! You do realize how stupid you look, right???
I just wanna skateboard to school so i dont have to take the bus next year

yo ik ben een paar dagen geleden begonnen met skateboarden op de board van een mattie van me en ik ben dus van plan om over een paar weken een skateboard te gaan kopen en vroeg ik me af of ik voor een complete en een custom zou gaan kiezen en ik woon dus in amsterdam oost
im in connecticut where are the skateshops.
all we have is walmart can i have some trusted skateshop suggestions?
If you think your only skate shop is zoomiez your probably wrong. Just look up skate shops near me

First board was a hand me down. Second my friend boonked it and sold it for $20. Third one i asked for it and it was given.

I’m eight years old and I think I should get your Junior deck
I want to buy a skateboard on amazon and I don’t know how to choose a good one
My first board was a complete which was a gold dragon and my parents got at a local bike shop. My dad is into bikes and I wanted to start skateboarding and my dad asked them and they said the boards they had where cheaper then the brand names and where good for starting and if I got really into I could always get a better board else where down the line. Honestly the truest thing I have ever heard. When starting its best to not go all out on board and just learn to ride so you know if skateboarding is your thing, basic lowering the amount you would have wasted if it ended up you did like or couldn’t get into it. The boards they have aka gold dragon where way better than Walmart boards but where below average and the price reflected that. I did end up getting a better board recently and I’ve always wanted to put my own together grip tape and all. That’s why I built my own. Also I wanted a Dr.Suss board and those where not available as complete. I got a green eggs and ham almost board, random metal trucks, independent hardware, spitfire classics 52mm wheels, Bones red barings. I got it all on skate-warehouse.com. They have a cool thing where it has a spot for each part you need for a board, click the part select the product to go there and build a skate board on the site pretty much. They give you a slight discount for buying a whole board from them. Also you can select to have them build it for you for free but you cannot return any of the parts and if anything happens to it its on you. I only have one skate shop near me and its small and the staff is always really rude so I just bought online instead.
I want to learn how to skateboard but i dont enough money for the skate board and some helmet and knee pad
In germany aren’t as much skateboard shops as in amarica damn
My first board I got as a xmas gift and I think it was cheap-ish complete. Second one was cheap cruiser. And then I actually got a good custom board.
Just remember if someone calls you a poser when your a beginner. They were definetly posers back in their time
My local shop is a Cristóbal colon, do you recommend buying a skateboard there?
i have my first board (still on it not enough money to buy new stuff) from my toys i needed to loosen the wheels a bit still a fuck up and i don’t even wanna get started on the trucks
There are no skateboard shops and TRACKS? And due to Corona I can’t go outside
YOUR HEIGHT AND WEIGHT DONT MATTER JUST GET A SIZE YOU LIKE XD
Start with an 8.0 and decide from that if you want to go smaller or larger
Where can I get a good/decent complete that isn’t to much money?
