I'm an older skater who wanted to get back into boarding. I knew I was going to build my own board and I used the interweb to do some research before buying. I did go to Zumiez, but everything I picked was top notch, so quality was never an issue. Was it more than I wanted to spend, yes, but I got exactly what I wanted. The fact that I like my board makes me want to ride it more. When I left Zumiez, every employee loved my board. Even at the skatepark, I get compliments on it. It fits me, it looks good, and I'm getting more comfortable with it everyday. However you decide to purchase, make sure you like it and are comfortable with it. If not, you will regret your purchase and will not ride it.
I recently got my dream board, FINALLY. I bought it "Complete", & it's fvcking perfect! It's an 8.5 Zero deck, Independent trucks, decent wheels, perfect everything as far as my standards & preferences. Obviously it's way more fun to build your own board from scratch, but I saved SO MUCH MONEY. Just from buying the completed option. It came with the same exact set-up I would've bought & put together had I built it myself. If you're curious about getting a complete board, just check out ALL the specs, & then research EVERYTHING. Maybe I just got super lucky, but that was my experience after a ten year hiatus from skating proper skateboards. (I got into longboarding for a long time. Just riding around, bombing hills, going WAY too fast & got hurt A LOT) That whole time I missed my old proper skateboard, so yeah I finally got my dream board & it's so fvcking nice. I've been skating every single day since it arrived. Just make sure you know everything you're buying, and obviously get the right size for your feet, or your preference, style or whatever. Shoe size is 13 (U.S./Mens) so the 8.5 fits like a glove. I love it so much! ❤ -
Update: I ended up completely taking my board apart. Replaced the grip tape with some MOB grip tape, & got a set of Bones Redz Precision bearings/washers. N I got a set of Powell Peralta Andy Anderson (97a 52mm) Dragon Formula wheels. My board is SO MUCH BETTER NOW. The wheels alone are such a massive improvement. 97a feels like I'm skating on a smoothly paved driveway even when I'm skating on the street. The design of the wheels is insane, they literally literally do climb up the curbs in my neighbourhood. They roll right over little rocks, cracks & pretty much everything else. I've never been more impressed with a set of skateboard wheels in my entire life. I also realized that the trucks that came with my board were a little to short for the 8.5" deck. I messaged the company about it, & they immediately sent me a brand new set of trucks that fit perfectly, (& let me keep the trucks that were to small) so now my wheel base is exactly where it should be, & because of the Powell Peralta Anderson wheels they cover the bolts & they do NOT stick out at all, they're right where they should be, & I can't see them while standing on the board looking down. Feels like everything is easier, the ride is so smooth, I absolutely fvcking love it. Re-reading my initial comment, I laughed when I saw that I said the board was perfect. The deck was perfect, the wheels were too hard, & cheap as fvck, & I found out the trucks were too small for the deck. Now that I've got the perfect size trucks & the Andy Anderson wheels, it really is perfect. It's all broken in, has a little wear on it. It actually looks like it's been used a lot, because it has been! I was skating every single day for weeks once they sent me the right size trucks, & I'm still amazed with the feel & the design of the Andy Anderson wheels. I don't know if anyone else has tried them, but I couldn't possibly recommend them enough. I got really good at Coconut Wheelies almost immediately, & I absolutely LOVE how smooth the ride is on any surface reallly, & the wheels really do just climb up & over everything. It's incredible. I couldn't be more impressed with those wheels. They're not cheap but goddamn are they worth it. The MOB grip tape is SO much better than whatever grip tape the board came with. N now I have the satisfaction of taking apart & building my own board. With my size 13 Vans, the 8.5" Zero "Single Skull" deck is absolutely perfect. I've fallen in love with skating all over again. I'm still out skating nearly every day, & have a absolutely ZERO plans of stopping. It's definitely harder to flip an 8.5" deck, but I've slowly gotten used to it, & Ollies are like second nature to me again like they used to be. I'm building up my strength pretty quickly, & I need all the strength I can get to Ollie high enough to flip the board & land on it every time. I can't wait to hit up the skatepark that's only seven miles from my house. I'm used to my board now, I'm comfortable as Hell on it now. So yeah, I'm fvckin' stoked about all the improvements I've made to it, & have a full set of Triple 8 pads, the wrist savers alone have already paid for themselves twice over, & I already had my late best friend's Pro Triple 8 knee pads & helmet. I just needed some elbow pads & wrist savers. I probably look like a total fvcking nerd when I'm rocking all that Triple 8 gear, but they have prevented some seriously bad injuries already, & I'm totally fine being decked out in pads. At least they're all Triple 8, they're all black & they fvcking work! I couldn't recommend the Triple 8 pads enough either. That shit is made to take a beating, & they're so comfortable. I've yet to seriously hurt myself, so that's a massive win in my book. I appreciate this video btw, it definitely helped me make the changes I needed to make, & now my board is truly perfect. So I really do appreciate it. -
Been skating for a year but still watch this video cuz its just so well edited and just all around great quality. Plus i always fall for that really aesthetically pleasing thumbnail
This deserves more recognition! I'm trying to educate myself before I get a skateboard. This was very helpful. Thank you! Edit: Posted this a week ago and with all the research I've done my mom agreed to let me get a skateboard. It's coming Within about a week!
Hi friend! I'm assuming by type you are talking about a skateboard, a cruiser, a penny board, and a long board? (Correct me if i'm wrong). A skateboard is used for tricks and what not, the rest I listed are made for... well cruising. So if you want to do tricks, I'd recommend getting a skateboard. As far as depth, most skateboards are going to be pretty much the same. I'd worry more about size than depth. Hope that helps! 🙏🙏
@@jellofroggo8568 All those things are EXTREMELY RARE as far as TH-cam videos. I'm surprised it wasn't 30 minutes along with at least three ad reads for some bullsh!t product that no one gives a fvck about. I wish this was the standard for TH-cam instead of what most videos like this usually are. -
Damn man, as someone who contemplated about starting out skating, I loved the vid, and the production! You'll get big soon if you continue like this! Considering that I don't know your equipment, i would recommend a brighter key light with lower iso, would help a ton ;)
Opinion on: Deck : Sovrn Heap Deck 8.0 x 31.75 Trucks : Bullet standard 140mm trucks 8.0 Wheels : Mini Logo C-Cut "2" Black 101a Wheels 52mm Bearings : Bones Reds Bearings Or should i do Deck : WKND Zooted Logo Deck 7.75 x 31.25 Trucks : Bullet Standard Truck 7.75 Wheels : Mini Logo C-Cut "2" Black 101a Wheels 52mm Bearings : Bones Reds Bearings
I recommend a size 8.0 because it's like the middle size and I used a 8.0 for my first board when I was 8 years old and it worked perfectly fine when I got my 3rd board when I was about 9 I tried 7.75 and it was a little too small it felt like so I recommend 8.0 for a beginner because it's like the middle size and 8.0 will be perfect for anyone (besides a baby) if you're like 6 I recommend 7.25
I just went average everything (except trucks, i like them tighter). My philosophy is start with something in the middle, and you'll eventually figure out what you want. Researching won't really help when you're very new, so just get something and go!
I was looking at some boards online and most of them I can’t afford but I found one that is more affordable. The price is much lower than usual but the board looks small and they didnt include a size in the desc.. is it worth it or should I wait until I can afford a better one?
4:23 Teen-adult: Get a wide board! Child-teen: Get a slightly thinner board! Child: Get a shallow and thin board Newborns: HOW THE HECK AM I SUPPOSED TO SKATE?!
What's wrong with the Zoomie's shop at the mall? I'm a beginner without a skateboard so I don't know what the difference between that and a mom and pop skate shop is.
So I’m not too new to skateboard and I’ve been doing it for a year my deck that I have right now is broken so I’m just asking what companies are most cost effective just for a deck and grip tape? Also how much should I be spending roughly in Canadian dollars?
Thanks for watching! I know you can either check websites under the "Sale" section and you can most likely find a board with free griptape for like 54 canadian dollars. However, I'm not sure the price of shipping since those are from American shops. My best recommendation is if you can find either a local shop or an online shop you can usually find either sale boards or "shop boards". A shop board is a good quality board, the main difference is that it has the skate shops own graphic. For example, Tactics.com has a bunch of boards that just say "Tactics" on them and they are pretty cheap. I hope that helps!
here's a tip get a complete board and when you need to buy a new one think of the things you want to change on your complete board and think of things you want to keep and just combine them and that's how you get your first build your own skateboard
When i go for parts or anything skate related i always go to a skate shop called "OCD skate shop" it's such a good store and everybody is super nice there, also im 12 and i ride a 7.75 i think
Super helpful now in 2024. Not a beginner but as a teenager I always skated whatever I had or was given I never got to choose or build so I genuinely never looked into the specifics before I stopped skating. Not getting back into it I’m ready to just go all out 😂
buy a complete skateboard and just replace the parts when you got the extra cash, the first thing you honestly should get is bushings and bearings to begin with then research what kinda wheels, trucks and board you wanna get. this was my progress but im happy with it. Almost Rodney Mullen YOLO 8.0 (probs gonna stick with almost or try an enjoi since its basically the same wood) Tensor trucks Alloy 5.25 (changing to venture or royal once i get $$$) Bones bushings 96A China reds/Big reds (i brought both but honestly China reds will do ya) Spitfire F4 Classics d97 54mm Enjoi Little buddies bolts (swag) EDIT: My original setup was an element 7.75, was okay but didn't like the concave on it, and i live in country australia so the roads are rough as balls thats why i went for the 97s and 54mm if anyones wondering.
Thanks a lot! My board that I got from a friend broke today when I was learning to ollie. (I did my first ollie today) I’m gonna try and buy a new one off tactics
I checked a couple skate websites and I am not finding anything from that brand. So I would say it probably is not a good skate brand. Unless you are talking about the skater Ishod Wair. In which case, his pro decks are from Real Skateboards, which IS a good brand! 😁
I used to live in an RV park about a decade ago and would skate all the time. Now that they're paving the roads in my neighborhood, I'd say it's time I learn again.
As a beginner who’s looking for a board under $50 CAD, what skateboard should I get? I’m thinking Cal 7 or Krown rookie from other videos/articles I’ve seen.
I'm a relatively big guy (6'1" 250lb) and have never skated before. Would you recommend something bigger than 8" ? Like a 10" board if i just want to cruise around my neighborhood?
Howdy friend. I'd recommend somewhere between 8.25-8.5 to start. They typically don't make traditional skateboards 10 inches. 9 is typically the biggest you can find, but that's a bit of an overkill even for cruising. Hope that helps!
Howdy! It depends on what you would like to do. A regular board is going to be for doing tricks, but a longboard and cruiser are made just to try ride around. Hope that helps!
Hii, I live in Portugal and there is not much things brands about skatebords and i don't want to buy one internacional do you think a Tony Hawk skatebord is nice??
Hi, yes a Tony Hawk skateboard would be great! I'd recommend to make sure it is a Birdhouse skateboard if possible. Birdhouse is the brand Tony Hawk owns so it will for sure be a good quality board!
Hey dude! I'd say a good range is anywhere between $75-$120. I'd recommend checking out my TH-cam video on the best online skateshops! That should help clear up the confusion. 😄
I found a complete skateboard at the goodwill for only $8.50, made it first skateboard :). Trucks looks almost brand new but the bearings and wheels can be replaced. I was gonna build one myself but can't beat a complete for only $8 haha
Thank you so much for this! I made a new friend who skates and let me use her board (31 years old and 1st time on a board). Have decided I have to get my own. Unfortunately, the only free fun cash I have at the moment is a voucher for the big evil corp :( Update: I got my board from Native skate store and used amazon voucher for pads and helmet :)
I’m just starting from level 0 and i really dont wanna watch a 20 minute video on what to buy and this video is 7 mins, funny and straight-forward so TYSM!!!
i know you said to go more local and not bigger stores, but i can’t find any decks i like or even complete skateboards, so is it still ok for me to go buy a board at like tilly’s or zumiez?
Yes! I'd recommend either CCS, Skatewarehouse, or Daddies Board shop. I've bought from each one of these before, so I know they have good customer service!
It's typically your overall size. If you are smaller, I'd recommend getting a board between 7.5-8 inches. You should be fine with anything in between that! :)
I bought my first complete like a year ago when I knew noting about skating and I kind of regret it, I didn’t know anything about the sizes or brands so I ended up buying a $60 grizzly complete and it sucks… It’s way too small and uncomfortable and the pop is really bad so yeah definitely do your research if you’re thinking about buying a complete. I’m gonna buy a new one soon but buying everything separately is SOOO expensive!!
This was really helpful, I recently got the urge to learn how to skateboard and your TikToks and videos are pretty helpful
Have you skated yet?
Bruh same

For the size of the board I got a little confused. I’m around 5”2, 5”3 what would be a good size. Sorry I didn’t understand that bit.
No worries! You're about the same height as myself. I ride a 7.75, so either that OR an 8.0. Can't go wrong with either!

buy a complete skateboard and just replace the parts when you got the extra cash, the first thing you honestly should get is bushings and bearings to begin with then research what kinda wheels, trucks and board you wanna get. this was my progress but im happy with it.

Tensor trucks Alloy 5.25 (changing to venture or royal once i get $$$)
Bones bushings 96A
China reds/Big reds (i brought both but honestly China reds will do ya)
Spitfire F4 Classics d97 54mm
Enjoi Little buddies bolts (swag)
EDIT: My original setup was an element 7.75, was okay but didn't like the concave on it, and i live in country australia so the roads are rough as balls thats why i went for the 97s and 54mm if anyones wondering.

Are Iron Stag skateboards good?
I'm a relatively big guy (6'1" 250lb) and have never skated before. Would you recommend something bigger than 8" ? Like a 10" board if i just want to cruise around my neighborhood?
Howdy friend. I'd recommend somewhere between 8.25-8.5 to start. They typically don't make traditional skateboards 10 inches. 9 is typically the biggest you can find, but that's a bit of an overkill even for cruising. Hope that helps!

Heyyyy How do know that the shop is trustworthy
Is firefly a good skate brand plz answer in the comments
GOD BLESS YOU!!🛐
As a beginner buying a skateboard, do you recommend a regular, cruiser, or a longboard. And does it matter which one I get
Howdy! It depends on what you would like to do. A regular board is going to be for doing tricks, but a longboard and cruiser are made just to try ride around. Hope that helps!
Hii, I live in Portugal and there is not much things brands about skatebords and i don't want to buy one internacional do you think a Tony Hawk skatebord is nice??
Hi, yes a Tony Hawk skateboard would be great! I'd recommend to make sure it is a Birdhouse skateboard if possible. Birdhouse is the brand Tony Hawk owns so it will for sure be a good quality board!
Hey i know i’m kinda late but, how much should i spend on my first skateboard?
Hey dude! I'd say a good range is anywhere between $75-$120. I'd recommend checking out my TH-cam video on the best online skateshops! That should help clear up the confusion. 😄
I found a complete skateboard at the goodwill for only $8.50, made it first skateboard :). Trucks looks almost brand new but the bearings and wheels can be replaced. I was gonna build one myself but can't beat a complete for only $8 haha

How about decathlon skateboard?
There isn't a local skatepark so Zumiez is all I have
Do you think Zumiez is bad I have a local zumiez and I love the boards that they have
Where do you get a cheaper bored ???
I’m 12 do u think a 7.5 inch or 8.0 be better?
I'd recommend an 8
@@wilsonjonah YESS my new board just came in today!!!
what’s better small wheels or big wheels??
Depends on a few factors! I got a whole video about skateboard wheels that should answer all your questions! 😁
Apart from this video being the perfect guide I was looking for, I can't shake the thought that you are like the long lost brother of Alan Resnick.
Does anyone know anything about the Skateboard Brand nkx ???
Thanks bro this helped😂
Thank you
🙏🙏🙏 thanks for watching, friend!
As a dude who's 6'1, a 8.75-10" board is the only size that worked for me
Thank you so much for this! I made a new friend who skates and let me use her board (31 years old and 1st time on a board). Have decided I have to get my own. Unfortunately, the only free fun cash I have at the moment is a voucher for the big evil corp :(
Update: I got my board from Native skate store and used amazon voucher for pads and helmet :)
oh god I bought one from zumiez but the brand is enjoi erm- is that okay? btw I’ve had a cruiser board before a skateboard
While watching your video and quality of this video i thought you are one of the famous TH-camrs with lots of subscribers. You deserve better bro 😢
Thank you so much 😁
is CCS a good company?
Yes! I have bought from them before and had no issues!
Is baker skateboards good for a beginner?
U will do just fine with any skateboard, as long as you have preference in board size
The closet skate shop other than zumiez is about 3 or 4 hours away
It happens! There are some great online shops out there. In fact, if you stick around, I'm currently working on a video about that exact topic!
Is it worth it to buy one if I live in the uk?..
I’m just starting from level 0 and i really dont wanna watch a 20 minute video on what to buy and this video is 7 mins, funny and straight-forward so TYSM!!!
Is your attention span that crappy?
I love the fact I’ll be a og in the channel
You’re tho og now
nice video :)
Thanks for watching! 😄
Whats the skateboard best brand
hey dude! I recommend checking out my video about skateboard decks. I got into in-depth details about brands of skateboards!
hey im new to this vid just had the urge to start boarding, im 10 and 4'8, what size board should i get?
Howdy! I have a video about "Which Skateboard Deck You Should Buy", I'd recommend checking out that video!
What is the best complete skateboard under $120
What about trucks and wheels
i know you said to go more local and not bigger stores, but i can’t find any decks i like or even complete skateboards, so is it still ok for me to go buy a board at like tilly’s or zumiez?
Of course! it's alright to buy from those places if it is your only option.
Thank youuuu
Thank youuu for watching! 🙏🙏🙏
Anybody 2024
yup
Yea
Type shi
Yes
Nice!
I went to each website and they are all sold out with the completes, do you recommend any other company?
Yes! I'd recommend either CCS, Skatewarehouse, or Daddies Board shop. I've bought from each one of these before, so I know they have good customer service!
Zachary Padilla is primitive skates a good store to shop at
@@xynxio8443 it is
how u not have a thousand subs ill never know why
Ok so I'm in the child to teen bracket, and I'm tiny. So does the shoe size matter? Or is it just the overall size you are.
It's typically your overall size. If you are smaller, I'd recommend getting a board between 7.5-8 inches. You should be fine with anything in between that! :)
I bought my first complete like a year ago when I knew noting about skating and I kind of regret it, I didn’t know anything about the sizes or brands so I ended up buying a $60 grizzly complete and it sucks… It’s way too small and uncomfortable and the pop is really bad so yeah definitely do your research if you’re thinking about buying a complete. I’m gonna buy a new one soon but buying everything separately is SOOO expensive!!
Is skatehut good?
