Cheap Skateboard Decks: Where to Shop

Posted by admin on 21st, 2009


If you are just getting started in skateboarding, you are probably not going to want to go all out and get a top of the line skateboard deck, because you are going to have to start somewhere and you are probably going to be a little rough at first. You don’t want to spend a ton of money on a skateboard deck only to have it ruined after the first few days.

So if you are just a beginner to skating, your best bet is going to be to not get an Element skateboard deck or other top brand name, and instead stick with a cheap skateboard deck that you are not going to have to worry about ruining. Then as you make progress and become a better skater, you will be able to get rid of that cheap skateboard deck and trade it up for something better.

Shopping

So if you want to find a cheap skateboard deck, there are a few companies that are great and that you are really going to want to check out. These are stores that are going to offer a selection of cheap skateboard deck and other parts so you never have to worry about spending a fortune just to get what you need.

Then one of the best places that you can head to is Skate 911. They feature some of the top brand names in skateboard as well but their prices are always affordable and so you know that you can get a great deal whenever you shop here. They have skateboards, skateboard decks, shoes, and always lots of new products coming out that you will want to check out.

If you are ever looking to get a skateboard for as cheap as possible but one that is going to be great for training on and using to make yourself a better skater, this is one of the first stores that you are going to want to check out.

360 Skate is another great pick as a company to go through if you want to find a cheap skateboard deck. Their goal is to constantly strive to be the best company that they can be and to offer skaters all around the world the best selection at the best price. You don’t have to pay a fortune just to get yourself a skateboard, but remember that you can get a nicer one after you get in a bit more practice.

Posted by admin on 29th, 2009

i want to commute around beijing, but i dont know whether or not i can take a skateboard on the bike path. are they legal in the city of beijing?

Generally, there is no "law" about it… but you will probably get into trouble with the traffic cops. Friends of mine (foreigners and Chinese) have said that they have had trouble.

Is a pressure flip on a skateboard like a varial kickflip?

Posted by admin on 29th, 2009

What is the difference between a pressure flip and a varial kickflip, and do they flip the same way?

they do the same rotation, but with a pressure flip you only use your back foot. and with a v. kickflip you do the shove it with your back foot and the kickflip with your front foot.

for the pressure flip you put your back foot where the tail and the concave meet (like a little pocket) and you scoop backwards. (like a 360 flip)

What is the best place to have a custom skateboard made?

Posted by admin on 29th, 2009

I found this site called zazzle.com that has a lot of custom decks, but I am looking for the best place to make a custom deck with my own designs on it with a decent price and a good quality board. Im not sure if I should buy my board from zazzle or not. If anyone knows of a better site that allows me to use my own designs for the deck (and trucks/wheels/bearings if at all possible) and has good quality boards, let me know. I really want a board that only I have.

zazzle.com is good.

Can you attach longboard wheels to skateboard decks and get a similar effect?

Posted by admin on 29th, 2009

I’m looking to get a longboard for the cruising and stuff, but I already have a skateboard and I was wondering if it is possible to attach the large, soft longboard wheels onto my skateboard trucks and still have the cruising feel to it.

Yep, you will need to add some 1/2 in risers to keep from getting wheel bite. Loosen the trucks up and you should get a cruising effect, but it won’t be exact
