Rocket Skateboards Complete Skateboard - Blocks Mini, Multi-coloured, 7.5 IN

Product Information

Performance and durability are the most important factors. A good skateboard should be able to withstand impacts, roll smoothly, offer enough balance when riding, and fit your style. There are other costs involved if you include gear. I summed up all the costs of skateboarding you might not think about at first. What Size Skateboard Should I get? Q: Do all skateboard bearings fit all wheels? A: Yes, it’s all standard sizing so don’t worry about that. Bearings are overrated, cheaper skateboard bearings work fine.

Why you should buy this electric skateboard:The Tornado II has some of the best safety and performance features around. This is the top end of the Tony Hawk Signature Series Skateboards. All components of this setup are upgraded to the highest quality of the series. This setup works well in skate parks for a more advanced beginner/early intermediate skater. The skateboard brands mentioned here ( Arbor, CCS, Santa Cruz (NHS), Birdhouse, etc) offer both high and low quality skateboards, but a few skateboards really stand out. The cheapest we bought and recommend is the CCS complete which is a great starter skateboard for skate parks.Wheels are often made of low-quality polyurethane and may flat spot more easily. Higher quality wheels sometimes cost twice as much but last four times longer. Buying skateboard parts yourself is usually more expensive but when it comes to quality you get the best. Why you should buy this electric skateboard:Your skate sessions can find you anywhere, from uneven pavement to off-roading through your local park.

Size: Around 31-33 inches long; Width: Generally between 6.5 to 7.5 (kids) and 7.6 to 8.5 (12+) inches. Wheels: Small and hard for even surfaces.Go for an 7.75″ or 8.0″ if you want to do lots of flips and aren’t too tall. An 8.25″ provides more stability and is great for both street and skate parks. Who it’s for:Those looking to test the electric skateboard waters without going all-in on a high-end model. If you don’t know what style you prefer, are new to skateboarding or just want something that works for all styles, go with this setup. While frequent skaters may prefer to invest in a premium electric skateboard, folks who use their board less often or primarily on the weekends may want to start with a budget option. The Blink S-R is a lot less expensive than many of the other models on our list, which is perfect for someone looking for a more casual way to get around town. Weighing just 11 pounds, this board also feels lighter than many of the other entries on our list. The S-R can hit top speeds of 15mph and take on hills with 15% grades, which is great for whipping around most conventional walking paths and streets. Just don’t expect to rip this little guy up any super-steep hills. It just doesn’t have the oomph to make it happen! Alien workshop offers one of the best skateboards you can get for street and park, but it’s not for everyone. The 97A/52mm wheels feel very smooth and grippy, and not too bouncy. They are a bit softer compared to most standard skateboards and more forgiving on gritty asphalt and rougher surfaces.

Size: Smaller than longboards, often around the size of traditional skateboards but with different shapes; Width: Varies, but typically between 7 to 10 inches. Wheels: bigger and softer for comfort and rougher surfaces. Rest assured, a beginner will hardly notice the difference between professional skateboard and a decent complete skateboard.

Why you should buy this electric skateboard: The Boosted Stealth combines comfort, performance, and durability, making for the ultimate ride. Wheels – sold in sets of four and made from polyurethane, skateboarding wheels are measured in millimeters and come in all manner of shapes, sizes, and densities.
